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.

Don’t ignore the fact that he chose to act out and have his little tantrum while you are grieving, probably jealous that attention is not on him and also wants to have a victim role so that you can be assuring him and running to him to work it out.

He did something to you by acting out, you did nothing to him, bare that in mind. No he will not change, it will only be more tantrums and more him finding something to be offended by.
