Divorced mom here. Was supposed to have a girls night out tonight. Found out yesterday I was in with the kids. I told my boyfriend of 6 months that he could come over after the kids were in bed. He apologized and said he made other plans, since I was not available. Today I asked when he was going out and he said his plans fell through. And he tried to make other plans but no one was available. He asked if I were going out tonite. I reminded him that I wasn't. He said do you want me to babysit. I know that was a very nice offer. But I am insulted that he didn't ask if he could come over to see me. I told him I was insulted and he got angry saying he was just being nice. We don't see eachother every day. Am I nuts?

OP-I went out with the girls last Friday and got so drunk that he had to come pick me up. I was very nasty to him that night - he told me - I pretty much blacked out. Why would he want to send me back out there? [ Reply | More

In that case... I would avoid whatever you were drinking that night. I happen to turn nasty on gin and scotch; so I avoid both like the plague. Meanwhile, I would cut him a break and apologize for over-reacting. My concern is that you could have two strikes in his mind... in a relatively short period of time [ Reply | More
