He is selfish. He put you second. Did you tell him under no circumstances is it ok that he breaks your date? You said he had other ideas. Did he outright refuse to tell the guys sorry?

Well thats other thing that annoyed me - he felt it was no problem to cancel me but I pointed out that he wouldnt have cancelled plans he made with them for me but then I wouldnt ask him to.
He didnt mention anything about telling the guys he wouldnt be going anymore. He stuck to his guns too and won

I think the nature of your plans is relevant.

If it was to go to Home Depot and pick out patio furniture, or something like that.... then he probably sincerely thought it could be put off with no big deal.

If it was a "date"... out to dinner, or a show or something .... (and I'd think a movie falls under the Home Depot category)... then he should be embarassed and apologize.

How did he win? Did he say he is going and it is tough if you don't like it?

Well no it wasnt a special date as such it was to go running but he dumped me to play soccer with his friends. The main reason we started running was so we had some sort of hobby to share. I look forward to doing it together

but I still feel as if I've been cast aside.

No thats not his style (which is why I end up feeling guilty) he just said sorry to me and that he shouldnt have told me today for our plans.

And then you told him ok, go? If so, this is your lack of boundaries, not his.

Do you spend time with your husband doing things?
how much time do you get to spend with your husband?

I think you should have went running by yourself.and then when he asked or you could of just brought it up. you could have a little story of how you and this hot guy you met while running started a little race and you had a great time.He was so funny and quit impressed with how well you kept up.


you might even meet up on a regular basis so you can run together. Oh don't worry honey hes married with 3 kids and his wife just can't be bothered to run with him anymore shes to busy spending time with her girl friends.

You mean he basically said that he should have been absolutely sure he wasn't going to get a better offer before he made plans with you...???

What would you do if this wasn't your husband? If one of your girlfriends canceled on you all the time? Would you feel like you were evil and controlling if you stood up for yourself with them, or would you just let it slide then too?
