[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the boyfriend and I had a fight about our Memorial Day plans. 2 weeks ago I had suggested that we take the 3 day weekend as an opportunity to have a mini getaway. He had said that may be a good option of its not too expensive. I went and found a nice groupon deal and showed it to him and he said it looks nice but he's worried about finances.[b] We didn't talk about it until this morning [/b]when I whistfully said I'm sad that we didn't get to get away this weekend. He then is like oh it's going to be so expensive I thought we were trying to save. I say yes, would've been nice if we had a getaway. He goes on about how it's going to cost so much and we have bills coming up etc and then asks me to look it up. I refuse to saying it's okay. He insists that I do. We go back and forth and he says if we take the trip I'd have to cut down on using so much uber. I get even more annoyed by his patronizing tone and say I'd really rather not go.
He then says I'm being very rude.

I'm sorry but this is not how to take someone on a getaway. Who's in the right?[/quote]

There's your big mistake.   Why not earlier?  [/quote]
I already suggested it and did the research and found out the cost. I didn't want to nag him into it.[b] I wish he'd thought of it himself.[/b][/quote]

There are SO MANY men who will not initiate or plan vacations.   If you are with a guy like this, and you want a vacation, you need to plan it yourself.   You found the costs, great.  Then say, "I'm going to book the hotel now."  [/quote]

My DH (known him 15 years) has NEVER planned a getaway. Ever. You are just setting yourself up for disappointment with this type of thinking.[/quote]
