Off with his head

Now, I'm kinda new to the relationship thing, not that Garette has been the first guy I've been with in my life, but in my adult life (whatever that is) this is my first real relationship after 4-5 years of singledom (geesh).

My point being, birthdays are still special occasions... and at my birthday I made sure to include him in my activities, at the very least inviting him, so what's the problem you ask? WHY am I not invited to his? He'd rather go out with his friends for the entire weekend sans yours truly.

I'm baffled, no I'm mad. Previous plans I had just to take him to a movie (he wants to see Pirates of the Caribbean and I don't) and dinner the day before (today) were scratched because now he has to go to a concert with his friends... Are you shitting me? So tonight, no G, tomorrow he'll sleep then I have a prior engagement and he'll go to his party so again, no G, then Sunday, who knows but I'm guessing, if his friends need something, no G.

This is ridiculous, is it too much to ask that your girlfriend wants to spend some time with you on your birthday? Am I thinking too hard that he doesn't want to spend time with me? Should I just accept the male bonding time they don't really need since they see each other every other day?

added to the fact that twice this week his promises to me weren't kept once his friends got involved and needed him for something. This brings about "the talk". I call and say "babe, we need to talk", to which he responds "not right now, I have too much in my head" to which I respond 'click'. I really don't want to have 'the talk' on his birthday so I'll hold my tongue but Sunday, all bets are off!

Darn relationships...

Sunday is a good day - and you're right - definitely fair game.

You know, we are females and we like to kind of celebrate every occasion possible...but men being who they are, are not that sensitive and appreciative. They like to go owut with their friends and do nothing more than bullsh*t around..and cometimes talk about the women in their life. A man likes to know that you are there even when you are not there...hence maybe this was one of those times. And of course he's going to be there for you and your occassions because he is a caring guy (some men. So him not wanting you to hang with his friends or not asking is him just being who he is...a guy. Believe me, coming home to you is his BD present..Love you!
