Me (f29) and my husband Rick (m35) have been married for a year. Rick’s niece Anna (f23) is terminal.
We’ve been planning to go to France early next year, and we’ve already decided on flights, hotel, etc. Nothing has been booked yet though, because of what Rick wants, and this is causing issues between us. My SIL (Anna’s mom) and her family are going to Fairbanks around that time because Anna wants to try and see the northern lights. SIL asked if we wanted to join them, and in Rick’s words we can go to France “another time”.
I said no. I understand him, but we’ve pretty much planned out our France trip. Rick is insisting that he “needs” to go. I got a little upset and replied he can if he wants, but I won’t be joining him and I’ll go to France with my family instead.
He’s been sulking and mad at me. I think he’s the one being unreasonable here. Am I A Jerk?
