“YTA. Learn to think of her interests, instead of yours, alone.”
“YTA. Sometimes in a relationship, you have to do things you don’t want to do.”
“Soft YTA. While both of you have reasonable positions, ‘I kept the weekend free for her, she doesn’t have to go’ is catastrophically missing the point to the point of gaslighting her. This is one of those scenarios where a compromise is necessary, and you need to have an adult discussion about what the compromise looks like. ‘Keeping time free for her, but only on my terms’ is not keeping time free for her.”
