Was it right of me to be disappointed and jealous?

Question

Today my boyfriend went to pick up his close lady-friend (who just got back from visiting her boyfriend) at the airport. He said that he'll be back soon, and we agreed that I should prepare food.
I was lovingly cooking for him, however and he left a voicemail saying the flight was delayed. So I didn't eat the food I made, and I waited for him, for 2 hrs (airport is 30 mins away).
I finally call him, and he says that he ate with his lady-friend, at a restaurant, cos' she had a stressful trip etc.
I expressed my displeasure, told him i was disappointed, and that he treated me like crap. He apologized in his adorable way.
Looking back now, I'm wondering if I overreacted. And before I apologize and fall for his puppy-dog look, I need to know if I stand corrected. THanks <3

Answer 1

Just one of those circumstances. I think he did what he felt was the right thing at the time and you reacted as expected and I would not blame you either. The good thing was you let him know how you felt and he did the right thing by apologizing. I would count it as a healthy relationship experience.

Answer 2

I think you have a right to be disappointed a jealous. To feel jealous is saying you care about someone and with that someone being with another (in close proximity). Actually he should not have even volunteered to pick her up when you are home fixing a loving meal. A voicemail cannot do for continuing to call and talk to you live. Also, so what that she had a stressful trip. She can recover from her "stressful" trip at her place to stay. He should have told her he has a meal waiting for him back with you and to kindly recognize it. I think you should honesty and lovingly let him know your feelings so you don't get more annoyed or depressed (which is REPRESSED anger). Good luck to you, and tell the man he's lucky to have you.

Answer 3

Yea you over reacted I think. I mean if you were just planning a meal for yourself, having a plane get delayed and then yelling at him about it because you couldn't have your dinner is pretty rude I think. But if it was for him and yourself to eat after he picked up his friend. You should have asked if he wanted any dinner made or something like that. See, this sort of thing kind of ticks me off about some women, they take it upon themselves to cook a meal and then they get mad when no one wants to eat it or has already ate some place else. I say its better to ask someone if they want a meal prepared or something before wasting food like that. And sorry for the rant there, but it really gets on my nerves the way some people take it upon themselves to do everything and get pissed when their efforts aren't appreciated. I think its a might ludacris and asinine.

Answer 4

He probably should have let you know about the change of dinner plans so I can understand disappointment and a little anger. It doesn't really sound like there's anything to be jealous about though.

Answer 5

Well, did he know you were cooking for them?

Anyway I think you might have overreacted a bit. I'm sure he loves you as ever and his lady-friend is like his sister.

It's normal to be jelous just don't let your jelousy drive him away.

Answer 6

As a man if he knew you were cooking and didn't call you to tell you he was eating out, I would be upset. It's not a deal breaker, but tell him he needs to tell you these things ahead of time.

Answer 7

I would of been the same way... I think it's just natural for us to get jealous. I would have my mind flying all over the place, thinking of what did he really do, ya know? I guess it all comes down to how much you trust him and if you believe him. It's hard, but you have to know when to express your jealousy and when not... but I'd been all over him mad and upset.

Answer 8

it's all in the past.what's important is your present.are you still together?then you must learn to be more patient.he did apologized so there's no point in bringing it again.

Answer 9

No I think you did the right thing
