I don't know if that situation is as cruel as the one I got myself into with a bad DM.
It was a 2ed game. I was rolling up a 1st level wizard and got to my spell selection. I asked what spells I could have and let me have the typical magic missile, shield, etc. But then I realized that I needed Read Magic in order to read spells from other spell books.
I asked him if I could have it, too. Heck, I was willing to sacrifice another spell to get it. But he said "Nope."
I tried to argue my POV but he ignored me, so I left.
That's my advice. If you argue your viewpoint and the DM does even consider it, then leave. If you're simply not having fun, leave.
