what happened to selflessness

I am slightly miffed now. I am planning the trip to NYC during spring break and Jeff at first didn\’t want to go at all. Through my magical power of manipulation, he changed his mind back. However, suddenly he wants to go separately. He wants to save money by going on the train (rather than renting a car). He\’ll meet us there in the city. Then he\’ll stay at his friend\’s place (for free). Then perhaps leave earlier. Ok, whatever, right?

But I miffed that he\’s taking less classes than I am, and is working part-time. Yet I am managing all of this. Ok, maybe I should give him some slack since he\’s still getting over his 7 year relationship. Yet what happened to obligation, to the awareness of dependency? Don\’t go off and leave us here.

Maybe it\’s because I tend to be selfless in these situations. Even though I don\’t want to do any of this…I\’ll do it, because I said I would. I always keep my word.
