He’s not mad at you for being mad at him. He’s mad at himself because he can’t give you what you want and he disappointed you. He’s only acting like he’s mad at you, but that’s not what’s really going on.
Men want to feel like they’re taking care of their women so when you complain or make him feel like he’s not doing a good job of taking care of you, he’s not going to feel good about the relationship. So, rather than tell him you’re upset that he went off with his friends, give him reason to spend more time with you. 😉 That may get you the time with him you desire.
Also, it doesn’t sound from what you’ve written like he’s neglecting you for his friends other than this one weekend. In other words, it doesn’t sound like you’re facing a negative trend where he chooses his buddies over you over and over again. It sounds like he has a profession and a lifestyle that is very consuming of his time. Make sure that this is really what you want — lots of men in different careers whether it’s farming or the military or working international business commit long hours to their work. It’s where they get self esteem and self worth and it’s lucky he likes what he’s doing and he’s good at it. If you need more time with your boyfriend — whomever he may end up being — consider a man with a less demanding profession. But if this is your guy, go into the long term part of this relationship with your eyes open.
I hope that helps.
