Do you find this outrageous?
My cousin (26) who lives in Spain asked me if I could come and visit him over Christmas. I couldn't, so instead we agreed that I would come and visit him for three days in February. He also said I could stay overnight with him.
Now, in December, he told me that I couldn't go to his place after all because his mother wouldn't allow it. I thought it was his apartment, and it's his mother's vacation home.
I then immediately booked a hotel (costs that were not planned for – I am a student).
Now the time has come. I asked him if he'd come to the flight pile, and he said:
He: I don't know, when are you coming?
me: at 7:45 pm
he: hmmm, interesting. (and nothing more)
2 days later I ask:
me: is that a yes or no?
he: haha I'm working on February 9th (the day before I arrive).
me: but I arrive on 10.02 in the evening
He: But you're going to your hotel. I can't get to the city center with my car.
me: but there is the metro
he: I think so haha
I then wrote to him that I was only staying there for three days and had come especially for him. I would spend more money than planned, and he wasn't even interested.
It's not about me being able to get by without him. I've been to this city over 10 times…he said in December that he had taken time off specifically, etc.
I think it's a real cheek of him. What do you think? How would you proceed?
you thought – but didn’t know, and apparently you thought wrong and the circumstances are different from you. If the mother’s apartment belongs and she doesn’t allow it then he can make little difference.
Did you just tell him you were coming in February or did he tell you to come?
In my opinion, it sounds more like it doesn’t really fit him in time that you’re here.
He wanted me to come, so he took the days off for me. Now he shows little interest.
Make a holiday there and give a shit on him.
I just don’t think he’s got a cock to see you. depending on how long you have left on the hotel and fly, if necessary cancel. to make a holiday there and forget the guy.
Unfair is already, but just make the few days nice and enjoy the holiday without him. I’d go through this, too, because if he’s like this, even though you came here for him, I wouldn’t spend time with him.
