First, I don't want to be told I'm missing the bigger picture here. I am VERY happy to get to spend the weeken with my boyfriend, but things are not going at all the way he intended them to.
I'll be there late Thursday night through Monday night. I encouraged him to work Friday night and Saturday night and he told me that he would take Sunday and Monday off -- this has EVERYTHING to do with why I booked the trip in the first place. Now he's working Friday - Sunday and I'm pissed.
I don't understand why he told me he wouldn't be working Sunday if he didn't even ask for the day off. He could have made MORE MONEY by picking up another shift on another day but according to him, he didn't even try.
All I really wanted was one whole day of us getting to be together so we could celebrate Valentine's Day, and he said that this is what he wanted too.
I would be less upset if he actually MADE money on Sundays, but he doesn't and he's told me that time and time again.
I don't mind spending time at my boyfriends place when he's not there, but it's NOT what I spent the money on an ticket to do. Since he usually doesn't wake up until noon and goes to work from 3pm - 1am or so in the morning I'm really wondering why I'm even going.
I'm not going to lie, half of me just wants to say you know what, forget it. The last thing I really want to do is spend 4 days sitting on someone's couch when I could have my car, go for a hike or to the beach and have people to keep me company. I don't want to go there and be lonely for four days, at least one of the days was supposed to be special to us and I'm sorry, to be quite frank, Monday where he sleeps in until 1pm and I have to be at the airport at 4pm .... that doesn't count.
Knowing how much that one day meant to me I really don't understand why he didn't ask for it off and my feelings are hurt. I'm the one who shells out the money for the trips, I'm the one who has to spend money when I'm there (when he's here I buy all the groceries) and it just feels like a waste of time and money.
I'll be thankful to get to sleep in my boyfriend's arms, but with his schedule that's all I'm going to get. I just wanted this Valentine's Day visit to be semi-special and now it seems like it's not going to be at all, and it sucks.
