I am really upset and aggravated. Joe's family has a family reunion every Memorial Day Weekend. Since we have been together he has not gone. Usually because I have had surgery and could not be left alone. This year he asked me if he could go and I said fine. Just because I have no life doesnt mean he can't have one. I guess I am aggravated that he even asked. How ever I said yes and so be it. He left yesterday at 1:00 pm. He did not call to see how I felt until 7 pm. He told me he would call me back and I stayed up until 10 pm waiting for his call. Could I have called him? Absolutely. I just felt that since he was out of the house having a good time, he could have at least called to say goodnight. I woke up this morning and again waited for a call. Joe is usually up at 6am. Never got it. I just called him and he was fishing and I asked why he didn't call last nite and he said he didn't remember saying he would. When I called him this morning because I was pissed he said that his cell phone is dying and he would call me when he went to town so he could charge his cell. I asked him when he was coming home and he said he didn't know. How rotten is that. I said he could go but to take advantage and not want to be with me really pisses me off. I am just venting and I am deciding whether or not to answer the phone when he does call later.Why are men so self absorbed

First of all I could never survive the drive. It is about 90 miles away and then since he didn\'t have a tent he was sleeping in his truck. The only time I go anywhere it has to have room service lol. Take care
because, men are men, and that is the way they work, they dont listen, they dont think and they certainly dont think of others opinion, sickness or want-in-ness for help. Its bullcrap and believe me I know exactly how you feel, My first surgery, I just barely walked into the door, and he threw me the baby, she was 4 months old, mind you your not suppose to lift more than a milk jug, and sat down, I began my life again, doing laundry ect. stupid me.. I totally despise mine sometimes, just for his selfishness, but what do you do? He should at least have enough consideration to call and check on you, we would them, right? If the shoe was on the other foot.. I wouldnt now though. To teach a lesson, but would it work??? doubtful
tell that man of yours to bring home the fish, cook you dinner, and if he mentions a sore back from sleeping in the truck, ignore him! All men whine, and are pretty much self absorbed aren\'t they..Remember to pick your battles honey, love ya sandym
Aw, sorry that you are going through that. I know it\'s difficult for me to understand the way my dh thinks and does things, which makes me frustrated at times, but I know that it\'s one of God\'s way to balance things out. Can you image how things would be if they thought the same way as we did?? Hope all is better now. ~~LotaHugs~~
I\'m sorry Laurie! Men suck sometimes. They don\'t understand us either, I have figured that much out, lol. Love ya!
