He waited for only 30 mins and he got crazily overly mad!

Okay, i was late. 30 mins late on the agreed time. But, before that, i asked him earlier, and repeatedly asked him if we are leaving right away. And he said NO. So i was taking my time, working slowly, so that i will not be waiting for him long. He said 8pm. I calculated my work and my time for the 8pm. At 10 minutes before 6pm, he advised me that we will leave at exactly 6pm. I said, i can't but he said we have to. Imagine me rushing everything and all that, just to leave right away, but it still took me 30 mins to finish last minute job at hand. He flared up, impatiently waiting and we ended up in a big fight!

I am sorry to hear that. Although you were late, but you didn't do it on purpose. I think he should understand it rather than be mad at you. Actually you could make it on time. But just his schedule changed and changed and therefore you couldn't adjust to it. Please don't feel so bad. It's not your fault.

thanks youless! you know what, your post made me feel better at that time ... though i was not just able to respond to your comment right away. i know it was not my fault, but somehow, with the turn of events and the heated arguments, everything went upside down.. you know how it is during actual quarrel.. you said things that will hurt each other, right? i am just glad that everything is okay... for now.

That sounds mighty unreasonable! How are things now? Did he make it up to you? Its alright even otherwise, Ysabel sweety. If he didn't make it up to you, he will soon.

That's wrong of him, and he has got no right to be mad at u.. For the time given and agreed upon is at 8pm, thus it's natural for u to take your time to finish up your things.. He's in the fault because he changed the timing suddenly just to suit himself and did not sapre a thought for u, just because he dun wanna wait.. He's just too selfish, and u should not even bother to explain to him.. Because if u were to do the same thing to him, he will still be blaming u, and not himself..

hello Ysabel. its just a matter of misinterpretation. maybe both of you are just exhausted physically in the day's work, and it all heated up! nothing beats talking it out, explaining you side and listening to his. i am sure everything will eventually be fine and you can start things in a clean slate. just be patient in explaining your side and do not raise your voice to assert your side. be soft spoken and try to really dig his side too. cheer up!

that's very normal in a relationship Ysabel. There's always up and downs. I mean you cannot be smooth and happy all the time right? There are sweet moments, but if its going to me all sweet moments, the relationship with surely be dull! You also have to experience that, to be able to learn the exact character and attitude of you partner and if you will still accept the other person, no matter what. that is part of loving, and giving love, and in being in a relationship. you learn form each other's mistakes. and the most important thing is, you will realize within yourself, how willing are you to accept him, despite of that.

well, in that sense, you are very right. but you also have to realize that in a relationship, its not healthy when you are always fighting. one of you sill surely get tired and fed up. there should be balance and all. it fighting is more than the sweet moments, that would definitely be a checker.

don't you think you are so inconsiderate? just because you are so familiar with him that you can just do what ever you want with your time. what if it was a business appointment , i bet you would be sure that you get there early or if it is you r long lost friend, definitely you will rushing out of the office the soonest that you can. you were given enough time to fix up and finsh work .so, be considerate of the time , if you do not want to wait then don't make people wait, too.

sometimes men act like children. when both of you have calmed down, ask him what bothered him that night. if he says something like "because you're late!" tell him your side of the story something like i'm sorry i was late but i never expected the time me moved earlier from what he previously said at 8pm. tell him that you were not through with your work that time and you tried your best to finished up. tell him that you'd greatly appreciate it if in the future that it would greatly help you if he doesn't change times anymore. so that you won't make him wait. tell him you never deliberatlely did this. and that you didn't want to hurt him. let's see you he reacts. argggh.... men! lol!

Wow, If he change the time, than he have to wait. If you have a time to ajust, than you do what you need before you go. But since he change the time you can not just ajust that and drop everything to be on time. That is not what he should expect of You. He gave you a specifik time and change it, than he should understand it woudl take time for you to ajust it. He sound like a child not getting his way. I am sorry to hear that from an adult. That is anoying that he did not understand your position. Hope he will get over it.

hello my friend anetteh, how are you? i know i should have replied to this sooner. your comment definitely made me feel better at that time. but only for a while. because finally, we broke up already. he ended up the relationship six days ago, and there's nothing i can do about it now but to face it and move on. (easier said that done).

Hehe, typical scenario. Well i don't think it's your fault because he didn't tell you that you have to leave 2 hours earlier than the agreed time. Was it really something important for him that he flared up? I don't think he'd get mad like that if it's just a routine. I got mad at my first girlfriend because she made me wait for an hour. I got mad because she made up a lousy excuse. I'm just glad i ditched her 3 times until she gave up lol. That's when i was free from her possessive ways.

I hate waiting too. It leaves me impatient when I am outside and someone wouldnt turn up on agreed time. But in your case it wasn't your fault. He should know that he changed the schedule and should be considerate. And 10 minutes is too short a notice to ask someone to leave especially if you have some work at hand. Reason out with him calmly and avoid fighting.

He sounds grumpy and how irrational, no wonder you fought but I fight with my brother over getting late . He is a lazy bum and will take hours to get dressed up and get ready to go anywhere. Even for buying groceries he will take up so much time goign out of the door that we end up fighting most of the times.

That seems to be totally unreasonable. Though I was 15 minutes late for my date last night and he said he was going to leave if I didn't show up soon. I didn't call him because I don't normally use my cell when I drive, but it took longer than i expected cause I needed gas. Boy am I glad he didn't leave! But to change plans 10 minutes before you were supposed to leave, that is insane and he really has no right to be made at you because you had to change and alter all your work to make it.

That was totally unfair. I wouldn't have put up with it. That was very inconsiderate of him to make you rush like that to finish your job when he was unreasonable with the time frame he was allotting for you. I hope that never happens again. Maybe when you're all calm and better, you guys can talk about it and settle things so it won't happen again. Thanks for the response on my discussion!

I am so sorry to hear that Ysabel...I think your bf is a hot temper one or maybe he has issues with the time. Some people is kinda strict about the time and would not even listen to what we have to say or reason out to them. We just need to understand them and just relax. We are not the one who are mad.
