CL guy wants me to go with him to ABILENE to see an airshow this weekend. Now, I detest airshows to begin with, even more so airshows that I have to drive like 10 hours to see. I was non committal when he first brought it up, but when he asks again, I'm going to tell him that my dad surprised me with PGA tickets for Sunday and I can't really say no to him (he knows I really wanted to go to the tournament this past weekend and it fell through).

Will I go to you know where for this? I can't even begin to explain how much I hate airshows.

(I really hope he's not lurking on this board)

My pet peeve is when someone does not tell me what they mean or what they want. I am all for direct communication. I am an adult and can handle my own feelings and do not wish for someone else looking after them. I was in a marriage where I felt I had to read in between the lines rather than she just telling me. I like honesty, directness, openness for close and clear communication. I desire intimacy and a key part of intimacy is understanding each other well and to do that (for me) is clear communication.

I also feel that I do not need to justify myself, my preferences, my feelings to anyone so that is not up to debate.

He doesn't have to understand why you don't like airshows, he just needs to accept it. Everyone is different and has different interests. You don't have to have a reason for not liking them. KIm
