is it just me? (15/f)
sorry this is going to be long.. I need to add details in order to ask my question.
The other night I had my boyfriend over to my house to watch the CMA Awards and I told him ahead of time that we'd be watching it and that it lasts about 3 hours and he said it was fine. I also told him I had waited ALL year to see them because I'm THAT big of a country fan and he knows it. So we watch about 20 min. of it and he says "hey let's see if Texas Chainsaw Massacre is on, it's suppose to be tonight" so he changes it and we just HAVE to watch it.. I looked at him and said "well couldn't you rent it or borrow it from a friend sometime? I've been waiting for the CMA's all year and you can watch this any time." and he starts whining and begging to watch it so I finally just give in and ask if we can flip it back over after and he says yes so after the movie we flip it back and start watching it. About 10 min. later he gets all excited and says "OH MY GOSH SOUTH PARK IS ON!! WE HAVE TO WATCH IT!!!" he's obsessed with South Park so we flip it over and watch it. I wouldn't have been so upset if it were a new episode or something but it was RE RUN... so I said to him "Okay well can we atleast watch Keith Urban since this is a re run?" because Keith Urban is my favorite country singer and he says sure. Well my parents were in the other living room watching it on that TV and I hear Keith Urban start singing and I tell him to flip it and he says "But this is the BEST PART!!" and I tried to get up but he said he wanted me to watch it so I stayed. I started to complain about not being able to watch it and about that time South Park's over and Nip Tuck comes on.. so he's like okay well we can watch it after Nip Tuck.. and I said "Alright well then can we flip it over the the CMA's and watch Kerry Underwood sing?" and he said "Well alright if we have to watch it" but we never flipped the chanel.. and by the time we did it was already over. My parents said it was great and Keith Urban got ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR.. and I missed it because my boyfriend just HAD to watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre, South Park, and Nip Tuck... so my question is.. Was I being too selfish by wanting to watch the CMA Awards instead of his favorite shows?
thanks in advance!

Honey, I think you know the answer to this one.
He is acting like a jerk.

What an immature little brat! Tell him straight that he was way out of line... I know tv shows aren't a big deal, but I have a feeling he's like this with everything. He needs to stop being so selfish. If he continues with this, you really shouldn't stay with him. He was a guest in your house and he was invited over for a specific purpose of doing something for you, and instead made it all about him. That's just not cool.

I agree with Storage. That was very rude of him but you had the power to stop him. It's your house and your T.V. Next time he comes over take charge.

no, that was really rude of him. the way you said he was whining and begging, he sounds like he acts like a woman. next time this happens, don't let him get his way. if he still refuses or whatever, talk to him about why him getting his way all the time means so much to him.

No, but I don't see why you let him change the channel. In doing that, it's not all his fault you missed the awards.
[edit]
All right, then next time don't be so nice to him. He would have probably let you watch it if he considered how important it was for you. In order for him to do that you can't be so passive.
