    Oh lads I just outdid myself, have to tell ye because there's nobody here to witness it! I just made one of my favourite dinners - liver, mash, onions, green beans and gravy - from start to finish in 15 minutes, very proud of myself. Was meant to cook at 7 but got distracted, 8.15 I got around to it with Corrie starting at 8.30, I rock. God bless baby potatoes for cooking so fast.

    Boyfriend is doing a great job of being an ass right now.
    He's meant to be coming over tomorrow and I'm going to cook dinner. I told him I've no money this week so I'll be working with whatevers in my kitchen but I'll still make him something nice.
    He said cause I can't cook him what he was in the mood for he's just not going to come over. He'll come over next week when I've money to make him something better.
    I know he just hasn't realied how mean what he just said came across because he's not normally like that but it's still pissed me off and really hurt me.

    If my boyfriend said that to me, I'd tell him to cook his own dinner, in is own house.

    You were going to do something, really, really nice for him, and he just threw it back in your face?

    I'd probably have eaten my boyfriend alive if he did that to me tbh.

    What were you going to cook him tonight? I'd personally keep the ingredients (if you can) and make it for him the next time he is coming over. Don't tell him though, pretend you are going to cook him something he wants, then surprise him.

    He's normally such a selfless person and would never say something like that but he's having a bad time recently (things bad with his parents) and I think he's just not in his head if you know what I mean.
    I feel bad calling him on it, after all he puts up with me being a phycho once a month, just may need to vent here to avoid head exploding.

    Going to relax, have a glass of wine, watch a girly film and ignore my phone.

    He only wants to call over to yours to be fed. Not to spend time and see his gf. You have every right to flip at him.

    To be honest, and I don't mean to be harsh or cause offence, but that's really no excuse to do/say what he did.

    You were doing something really nice for him and he just threw it back into your face. We all go through bad times, but that doesn't give us rights or licenses to be horrible to others, especially when they are going to do something nice for you.

    My boyfriend is cooking my dinner for me, if I wasn't in the mood for it I'm hardly going to turn around and say "Oh I'm not in the mood for it, so I'll wait until you will make me what I am in the mood for", it's rude and ungrateful.

    You should say it to him and he should apologise IMO.

    On another note, my boyfriend gave me some Kopparberg mixed fruit cider, it's really nice, quite sweet, but not sickly sweet. It's my first time to try it and it's a firm favourite now. :o

    To be fair everyone has their off days and say things they regret, I wouldn't be judging him on that alone, bubble you have the right idea, wine and ignore phone :)

    I agree but I would also call him on it, he needs to know that it was hurtful.

    I get where you're coming from and I agree to a certain extent, but a person is still entitled to an opinion on what they want to eat. Granted if someone suprised me with dinner I wouldn't turn my nose up at it, but if I knew in advance that someone was cooking dinner for me then I'd make sure it's something I actually want to eat and if it's not I'd probably tell them. Though that does depend on who's cooking it. If it was my boyfriend, yeah I'd absolutely tell him, but I wouldn't demand he make me something else instead. If it was anyone else, I'd probably just shut up and eat it.
    Does that make sense? If it doesn't it's becuase I'm struggling to stay awake right now :o

    I understand what you are saying, but going from Bubblefett's post, I'm guessing she offered to cook her bf dinner and he said he'd come over when she'll cook him something he is in the mood for.

    You can't go to someone's house and expect them to cook a meal for you because you're not in the mood for anything else.

    What if it was a case where she wouldn't have any spare money for groceries next week and said to him I've got "chops in the freezer, veg and spuds, that's all I can cook", would it be OK if he said he wasn't in the mood for it and said he'd come over when she'd cook him something he is in the mood for?

    If my boyfriend did/said that to me tbh it'd be a long time before I'd cook him anything again. He'd be cooking for himself.

    Honestly it is so so rude and ungrateful, not to mention hurtful. So what if she is making something he's not in the mood for, he could still come over and spend time with her, rather than hurting her and thinking it's OK because he's going through a hard time.

    As I said before, just because someone is going through a hard/difficult time, that doesn't give us rights or licenses to be horrible or rude to others, especially when they are doing something kind for us.

    I'll say no more on the matter, but I would absolutely call him on it and expect an apology from him.

    If I've come across as harsh or cause offence, then I apologise, it's not intended.

    Thanks for the concern guys :):o
    He's the best in the world 99.9% of the time, i've never met a man so selfless and kindhearted. He always puts other before himself and is just a good person.
    If it was a reoccuring thing that he talked to me like that or he'd even done it once before I'd call him on it of course, but in light of the current situation and all I'll let it go, it's not worth the fight imo.


    I am really touched by you all responding though. It's nice to have people to talk to sometimes :o

    Oh yeah definitely, but in the long run I'd let it go if it was a one off. As Queen of Hurtful Things Said In A Temper (I'm not so bad anymore) absolute horrible lies can come out of someone's mouth if they are angry/miserable enough.

    Have been feeling crap the last 2 months and thought i was getting depressed or something or else it was down to the pill making me feel so bad.
    started through college talking to counsellor (kind of) and I babbled on about X Y and Z and in between mentioned a b and c just so it made sense and she noticed these and asked me and I really didnt realise how bad these things hit me.
    In the last year, half my family have moved abroad. I left my job in Dublin to move home.
    I lost a grandparent really suddenly, had break up and made and lost new friends.

    I hadnt realised how much all these changes had got to me and what they meant.
    but anyway since moving home, i havent seen many of my friends because i'm not been to Dublin but spent a few days with some at weekend, went over not feeling enthuastic at all- looking forward to seeing them but the effort felt too much-nothing against them- but it was best thing i've done, really and truly lifted me out of a bad place. and its only know in my good spirits I realise how bad i needed it. and even been sick for wknd with them i still felt great coming home.

    AH stupid internet.

    I had a reply wrote out.

    I'm sick. Went to the doctor on Tuesday (my regular one wasn't there so it was a replacement). She said 'make this quick because i'm run down all day). So I only discussed one of the things that was wrong with me.

    I'm so angry. I won't be going back to her again.

    Can't even tell the OH 'cause he's away on businss and no way to get out of it.

    It's his last night tonight so I'm sure he'll be out celebrating though.

    I'm so upset right now.

    I'm sure i'll live but I had bigged up the thing I wanted to discuss with her so ended up not talking about it.

    Going to arrange an appointment with a different doctor to discuss it instead.

    I always do that too, it's such a waste paying €55 just to get a prescription renewed so I save up every illness til I have to go in :) It can backfire on me though, last year I fell and hurt my arm but I'd only been to the doctor the week before so I didn't want to go in again. Ended up passing out a few hours later and wound up in A&E with what turned out to be a broken bone! :rolleyes:

    So now I don't know whether to go back to the regular doctor (who wasn't there today) or make an appointment with a completely differernt specialist doctor who can refer me onto to someone else if needs me.
