Mancub or asshole?
I have been in a long-distance relationship for almost two years. I am visiting my boyfriend this week at his place. Last night, he came home late for our dinner date. He was late because he had "lost track of time" while practicing the piano with a friend. I understood. Then he indicated that he had been taking myspace photos with the same female friend for her myspace page for the first hour of "piano" practice. I was hurt. He had been gone the entire day, almost 11 hours, and had told me to be ready by 9 PM for dinner. He came in at 9:25 and initially indicated that he was only ten minutes late. I conveyed why it was difficult to hear that he had been taking pics rather than practicing, which lead to his tardiness. I said that it would have been easier to hear that he was simply practicing. He said that they took over 100 pics for an hour. He said that it was messed up for me to have a problem with this because, ulitmately, he was late due to losing track of time. I had cleaned his entire apartment while he was gone. I put on a special outfit and looked forward to our time together. I really don't think I'm being unreasonable. He then told me I could leave earlier then planned for my home. I feel like I'm not allowed to have strong feelings. He prides himself on not having cried since 1997. I think it overwhelms him when I need him to evoke empathy when I'm upset. I hate him for telling me to leave. I don't think it's warranted... Suggestions? I ended up staying (on the couch, as usual) and he left for work this AM without saying goodbye or leaving a note. We literally only "fight" about once every six months when I'm upset and he becomes dismissive and cold. It's a lose, lose situation when this occurs. Help!
