It's more of a question really.
What is a reasonable amount of going out/ drinking aged 39 with a child of 2.5?
I've also been pretty I well for some time, though on the mend.
My gripe is; within a typical month: one Friday out till 4:am drinking playing cards. Did make an effort however through his hangover.
Attend a barbecue, decide to stay a bit later and get taxi home, end up not getting taxi home, staying over and getting very drunk indeed, failing to inform me of anything till 9 the next day, then too unwell to come home till about 2:00pm.
Three to four other evenings out, of more 'reasonable' drinking (ie home about 11:30) and sort of linked to work - discussing things with colleague while watching football, a mid week pub meet sort of thing.
I have always found his going out hard to keep up with. My biggest gripe is how much it can be unplanned, get carried away, eats into the next day.
He has apologised, - this is an improvement as he usually sees it as totally his right - but I struggle to cope with my energy levels as it is. I can't envisage ever being able to have a second child and this kind of pattern?
Or am I being unreasonable?
I'd be ok with staying out all night if I had forewarning and it was planned. There are events coming up already planned as always, but then the extra unplanned unable to stop stuff creeps in.
He has several different groups of friends who he was at uni with living locally.
