My wife of 12 yrs and i never go out since having our first child 7 years ago. I've constantly complained that she never makes time for our marriage and us and our relationship has definitely suffered. Now she wants to make an effort to go out and hang out.
It was my birthday recently and she said she had a surprise for my birthday that we were going out somewhere. Im excited because we are having a date night and then a few days prior she tells me we are going to a macklemore concert with two of her friends and their children. So 6 people total including two children. We do not have a lot of money and she spent over 200 for 2 tickets. Now one of the very few times we get to hang out and see each other its with another couple and two kids.
But better yet i dont like macklemore. I dont know one song he sings and im not even a fan of going to concerts. Much rather go to a sporting event. This is my birthday gift from her!!! Am i an asshole for being pissed i have to go to this when clearly this is a completely selfish thing she did be she wants to go the the concert and its with her friends?
