And he says okay, that while he can't justify spending money on it, if we invite two people, then it makes more sense to him. Not that I don't deserve it, he says, mind you, but let's invite these two. And I say, okay, that'd be great, I like them, spending time with them, getting to know them more...
Then he asks other two people that I wouldn't really want there. I am selfish. I am immature. But now I'm pissed.
Granted, these people can't go, as it turns out. But he didn't ask me. And should he have? I don't know. What's the etiquette? Now that I agreed to these two people, should I assume that these other two people are fair game as well? I should note that they're all related. I get it, that makes things sticky, makes things more complicated. There's probably no real way to determine what's right or wrong, what a person should expect or not expect....but why am I so angry? Feeling like something was taken out of my hands. Something that I thought was already decided in lieu of what I had asked for.
So yeah, I'm probably asking too much. Too much of everything. Of anything. So is this when I need to speak up? I'll only frustrate him more, I know it. Not that I know it all, far from it. But history has shown that it would be bad news to tell him. So I have to sit. With this anger. This pissed-off-ness. And somehow cope in a healthy way with what just happened.
Get out of my head. Get out of it and breathe and be in the present.
Okay. Fine. I'll try.
