sneakygurl Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Ahhh relationships. What a bunch of bull****. Here's the latest in my up and down saga. I had a root canal about two days ago. Now if anybody has had a root canal before they know it can take several appointments. THe first appointment my boyfriend was completely supportive, he stayed at home with me, pet my hair, made me a soft dinner. THen the second, more painful appointment happened and he was MIA. First of all, we live together so he definatley knew I was getting a root canal. I first thought that he was off seeing his kids, because that's what he told me, but then I found out that he had been hanging out at his friends' house all night. I was floored. I told him how hurt and disappointed I was in him, because had the situation been reveresed, I would have been right by his side. I cannot believe I'm in a relationship with a jerk like this...
witabix Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Yep. root canal work, a little like having your testicles jammed in a door, and paying for the privilidge! Did you let him know you wanted him there with you? Just a thought. Sorry you are upset. How is the root canal, hope its ok now.
Author sneakygurl Posted January 12, 2006 Author Posted January 12, 2006 Yes I wouldn't wish a root canal on anyone... save my boyfriend just for empathy sake. Thank you for the sentiments and no, I didnt' explicitly say I wanted him there for it, so you do have a point as I know with him interpreting my feelings that I think are common sense is like translating greek. Good point, I will be over it one day for sure! And yes I'm feeling much better although the jaw still throbs.
witabix Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 We all occasionally expect people to read our minds, although empathy is usually a good substitute for telepathy. Give him a chance to apologise maybe?
Author sneakygurl Posted January 12, 2006 Author Posted January 12, 2006 He has apologized, but I'm still stewing over it. And of course he's angry that I won't get over it, but I basically told him I would eventually... just not yet. I think I'm entitled to that, because he really hurt me.
