susanl Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 So when does one learn to stop always giving?? Been in a relationship for over two years, well we (my daughter and I ), were supposed to eat dinner with them today later this afternoon. I suggested she go to dinner with her dad and his new wife, after all he is paying for her college, so reluctently she is going. She was going to come home and we were going to his families for another dinner. Well last minute he calls and says time has changed because someone has to catch a plane--well with the time change there is no way we can go up there--so the only one who is left out is me. This probably wouldn't be so bad -but I have had strept throat for a week and haven't seen him, he had no kids last night and when he finally called last night he said--how much are you mad and how much don't you feel good. My answer was honest --I said about 50/50 I don't feel good but I am not mad, would have liked to see you tonight. His comment was--well I wasn't invited. That just blew me away--I had no answer--and his response was well I can't do anything right and hung up. Well now today happened--gosh--part of it is me feeling bad and the other part is absolutely no consideration from anyone--and I always give and give --guess not a way to spend Thanksgiving!! To everyone else though--happy turkey day
