As he was telling me this stuff, I was thinking, "So, okay, how would you be dealing with this if we were married, SO? You couldn't call me and tell me not to come home, and I wouldn't be wild about you going out without me on a Friday night."
By now you got through the weekend, but I'm curious about the "going out without you on Friday night" part. I got the impression he was planning to stay in and rest up a bit, not head out on his own to "recharge" so he could be good company.
Yes, that's exactly what he did. I was throwing out the "going out on a Friday night" scenario as a hypothetical. Sorry I wasn't being clear on that. And, it is probably my projecting. If I was having a bad time, that's what I'd want to do to blow off some steam.
