Default Warning a little irritated wanna rant! GRRR!

I got no where to put this but here right now so here it is... ok, so I have been looking agressively for a new job for the last two months. I finally got with a recruiter and after constant daily persistance I had an interview today at 3pm! I am trying to get my mind ready for the interview and change clothes and everything. My baby KNOWS how worried I have been and the pressure has been on for me to leave my current job. He KNOWS that I had been in contact with this agency I am trying to hold it down. So I just get done yesterday saying how great he is being supportive and everything and upbeat a little I appreciated it! So what does he do today? Not even an hour before I do the damn thang he calls and is crying and upset about Fathers Day coming around (like in a week or so) and he is missing his boys and he is really down in the dumps. I am supportive to him but I try not to cry and mess up my makeup. I am trying to get this interview nailed so I can pay the bills and give him a home to come home to! C'mon man, really? I of course give him all my gas but I try to erase it and try to focus. I did however LAND THAT JOB!!!! but I kept thinking as I left the interview was Where was he when I needed him to be the man he is supposed to be for me? I kinda thought he was being selfish at the time.... man it irritates me when he can not man up on things! Also to think before bawling on the phone that he is having a bad day an hour before the big interview! And Fathers Day isn't for another week! sheesh! I am more than supportive but I felt like he was sabotaging my career move with his emotional needs! Thank goodness I can still eat ramen noodles for dinner....and keep the electric bill paid!

Thanks wanted to rant! I feel better.....pffft....

First off, congrats on the job. I don't think your man meant to come of as selfish or uncaring. Yes it would have been wonderful had he been more supportive and encouraging for you, but he just had some really bad timing for his breakdown. Try not to focus so much on the fact that he came off that way and focus more into taking some time to celebrate your new job! Don't stress over the fact that he could have bombed your interview, because he didn't. Cheer up and stay positive for the two of you
