Worst moment?
On our second trip I was determined to try some rides recommended on the DIS and a bunch of other things I hadn't gotten a chance to do before, I was on mission mode, from rope drop till closing, all parks, every day. My DH wasn't having a good time, we were on our second day, his wisdom teeth were aching (we eventually got them pulled out since they were really a pain), he hadn't slept well in days, it was hot, he was just grumpy and had no patience left.
When I told him I wanted to try riding Soarin', he just stopped cold on his tracks and started a tirade about how he didn't want to, how he didn't care if I had made plans, how he just was tired and annoyed (at what? He never told me
) and how he was just generally angry.
He had been just fine before, so it sorta came out of left field. He is normally a sweetie and we had been having fun (or so I thought), he surprised me so much with his outburst I actually started to feel like crying. I didn't want to make a scene, so I tried to woman up and apologized to him to calm him down and just walked him away (while he kept on his angry monologue about how hot it was, how he was tired of eating -yes, eating- and tired of walking around in circles... -it was Epcot! It is a big circle! LOL) to a more empty and cooler area. I sat him down, got him a soda, ice water and a small meal and he stewed for about half an hour before he broke down and apologized saying he was just in pain, tired and generally burnt out.
Ever since that time we slow down, take breaks and now I make him do half the planning so he doesn't feel like he doesn't have a say. I felt terrible for pushing him so far, never again!
