Ok so my husband was asked to help out as a volunteer at a district wide event for our children’s school district. The event was 5:30-7:30pm and he had been corresponding with the principal of one our children’s school about the details. We decided to take one car since it was going to be very busy and parking would be limited. He asked me to drop him off about 4:45 and suggested I take the kids to a restaurant nearby for dinner and then come back so we wouldn’t have to be there the whole time.

I took the kids and we sat down and ate quickly and then we went back to the event. We caught up with him and there were so many teachers and staff working - it was a very big event. Towards the end he asked me if I had gotten him food and I said “ohh gosh no I didn’t I’m sorry!” He got pretty upset and said he had to go do some more work and left me with some of our friends.

He wasn’t really talking to me the rest of the event. I was driving so I mentioned when the event was over we could stop on the way home and get something because there wasn’t much at home because I needed to go grocery shopping over the weekend. He grumbled no and that he “needed to get home because he had a lot to do” so I drove home.

We got home and he was then upset there wasn’t really much in the house and I reminded him that I had told him we could stop for that reason. He told me if I had just thought of him when I was at dinner this wouldn’t be an issue. I apologized and let him know I was sorry and that I had incorrectly assumed they were feeding the volunteers because first he asked to get there before the event started and second he didn’t ask for anything. Well then he said I should have at least texted him or just got him what he usually gets there. I feel badly that he was hungry and maybe I should have texted him but in this case AITA??
