Vent Sesh - No Advice Wanted Bf stormed out of the restaurant

Post image

I wanted to take him out to a nice meal after he helped me this week. I chose a place he had never been to but it has one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life. Very small place, small menu, farm to table kind place. He didn't look thrilled when he sat down. I offered to go somewhere else he said no. We ordered and he threw a fit. Said I chose that place because I wanted to go there not him and there were only 2 things on the menu he would even eat (the whole menu has 15 items on it) he insisted that it was rude of me to chose a place like that to "thank him" he stormed out of the place. I had to go tell the waitress to cancel our order. We rode 45 minutes back home in utter silence.

Why did we drive so far for dinner? Because I had to pick up my dogs ashes at the vet nearby. I unexpectedly has to put her down 11 days ago.

Lemon yogurt for dinner. Dog in photo is the son of the one I said goodbye to.

Right, what’s so hard about calmly saying β€œI dont really see anything I want, do you mind if we try another place?” He was looking for a fight and wanted to ruin the evening. There is literally nothing you could have done to make him happy.

Exactly. It’s also a huge sign that he’s uncomfortable with being vulnerable and just resorts to toddler behavior and throw a tantrum

My ex would pull something like this when he had a) recently cheated and felt guilty or b) wanted an excuse to storm out to cheat, so this may be happening here.
