AITA for asking my husband to spend more time with me?
My husband works six days a week. On his only day off, I expected to spend the whole day together, especially since we had plans later that night. Instead, he made plans with himself (perfectly fine, he went out to get some coffee and talk to his therapist), with me (our date later that night), and with some guy that is a regular client where he works.
I immediately protested and explained to him that the mere fact that he is splitting his ONLY day off with multiple people/things to do, is not ok with me. It made me feel a little unwanted and I genuinely MISS him so much! He kept asking me for my reasons for feeling this way, and I explained, multiple times. He kept asking me this question again and again, until I exploded and raised my voice, which was wrong of me and have since apologized.
After the argument, he was in a weird mood and I could tell it was because of the argument. I asked him, and he just shrugged it as being tired. Today, he woke up in a weird mood and brought up the subject again saying he doesn't want to be scared of asking/telling me when he's going out with his friends. Obviously, there are unresolved issues here if he is still bringing it up, no?. I finally shut down and told him I was unwilling to continue to discuss this "friends" matter with him without professional help. This is because this wasn't the first, second, or third time we get into arguments because, in my PERSONAL opinion, he is desperate for friends.
Now, my husband has been out with his friends multiple times, and I have been very supportive of this. This is not my issue. I am ok with both of us going out with our respective friends either together or separately.
So, AITA for asking my husband to spend more time with me on his only day off?
