This man currently has a daughter, who he co-parents with his ex, and his daughter primarily lives with her mother. However, she spends most weekends at his house– unless she already has weekend plans.

So, whenever his daughter spends the weekend with him, they normally try to do something “fun” during the day.

Then, he claims that his daughter will spend the rest of Saturday evening and night in her bedroom scrolling on her phone.

“Like all teenagers,” he noted.

On Sunday, he and his daughter also typically go out for lunch. Afterward, he normally drops her back off at her mother’s house.

This past Saturday, though, at about 5:00 p.m. or 6:00 p.m., his daughter actually asked him if he wanted to watch a show together. And as you can imagine, he was completely taken aback but also very excited.

“I agreed, obviously,” he recalled.

So, the pair ended up having a great time binge-watching Breaking Bad together and eating ice cream in bed. By the time 10:00 p.m. rolled around, though, he actually received a text from his girlfriend.

Apparently, his girlfriend asked when she should head over to his house. And at that moment, he realized that he had completely forgotten about making plans with his girlfriend to hang out on Saturday night.

But, given the bonding time that he was enjoying with his daughter, he ended up asking his girlfriend if they could just meet up the following day– on Sunday– instead.

Well, it appears that his girlfriend was not happy with him flaking– because he received a pretty angry call from her afterward. Apparently, she was very upset that he decided to change their plans at the last second without even informing her.

Now, he reportedly tried to explain the whole situation regarding his daughter and admitted that he had simply forgotten. His girlfriend just was not having it, though, and simply hung up the phone on him.

Afterward, he also received another text from his girlfriend. In it, she claimed that if he did not care about their plans, then she would not be coming over on Sunday.

Well, spoiler alert: his girlfriend did not end up going over to his house on Sunday. Instead, they actually have not seen each other since last week.

So now, with his girlfriend still really upset with him, he has been left wondering whether ditching their plans to hang out with his daughter was a really jerky thing to do or not.

Is it understandable why he would want to spend time with his teenage daughter if she doesn’t normally ask him to hang out like that? At the same time, is that an excuse for him forgetting to cancel his plans with his girlfriend? If you were his girlfriend, would you be annoyed by the lack of notice, too? How can he reconcile this situation?
