[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1/ things that include kids are not dates. You were just going to have lunch with the kids, as a family, no "date". 2/ I think he used it as an excuse to be alone and chill instead of going on a boring and hectic "date". 3/ I am not saying he is right but he is trying to show you that he is sick and tired of the same old fight. Make of it what you will. [/quote] Agree with this. He didn't feel like doing a family lunch, and may have (consciously or not) picked the argument to get out of the family outing. Whether he initiated the argument or not, he's going to be using this tactic in the future. Why not? From his perspective that doesn't consider the negative effect on his children to be a problem, it worked. Regardless, the behavior you describe - his and yours - is immature and presents your children with a poor model. You seem to have some self awareness, OP, so the burden may be on you to bring about change.[/quote]
