We bought expensive tickets to a wine tasting at the art museum. The tickets were pretty expensive and sold out immediately, so we were both excited to get the 2 kids to a baby sitter and have a night out. This was at least a month ago.
Well today at dinner she says "Bad news. I was told a work event just got planned for that night. The tickets sold out so I think I'll be able to get our money back at least." and kind of just moved on. It honestly hit my like a ton of bricks in the chest and she just blew on by like it was no big deal.
If this was a once off kind of thing, I'd probably just let it go as an annoyance. Except just last week we had a conversation where I said I was feeling neglected in the relationship and like I'm last priority in all her life things. And she doesn't even seem to really recognize how what she said would upset me since I'm being prioritized behind work… again.
We were having dinner with the kids at the table, so I didn't want to make it uncomfortable in the moment but I'm going to bring it up once the kids are in bed. Can you all help me navigate this before I have this discussion? I feel like I'm at the last straw.
