I Cooked a Festive Dinner for 20 Guests—But My Husband Had Other Plans

I believed I was being a supportive partner by organizing a celebratory dinner for my husband Todd’s 35th birthday. Just as the guests were about to arrive, he informed me that he was skipping the party to catch the game at a bar. What occurred afterward? Let’s just say, I ended up on top.

One might expect that after six years of marriage, a person would develop some sense of gratitude, yet that is not the case with Todd. Each year, I would invest my emotions and efforts into celebrating his birthday, only to have him overlook it completely.

This year, however, his sense of entitlement reached unprecedented heights

Six years. Todd and I have been married for that long.

Our relationship has its good moments, that’s for sure. Todd has a way of being quite charming at times, and we’ve shared some truly wonderful moments together. However, there’s one aspect of him that completely frustrates me.

His sense of entitlement.

Consider last Thanksgiving, for instance. Todd came up with a fantastic idea to organize a dinner for our families. He shared the news at breakfast one morning, beaming as if he had just cracked the code to world hunger.

“Claire,” he said, “I believe we ought to host Thanksgiving this year.”

“Alright,” I responded. That sounds lovely. How are we allocating the responsibilities?

He dismissed me as if I had just requested him to perform a headstand.

“Oh, you excel at that kind of thing,” he remarked. “I will take care of… I’m not sure, maybe drinks or something like that. Just ensure it leaves a lasting impression, okay?

I really should have seen it coming, yet I chose to go along with it anyway.
