Taking bets on what time my "D"P will be home tonight

[ManAliveThisThingsFantastic]

Form an orderly queue people! He told me he would be home at 8pm, what time do you actually think he will be back?

Disclaimer: I have no problem with him going out till 8pm or whatever time he wants but it PISSES ME OFF when he gives me a time, says he does want his tea and then doesn't turn up. Just don't give me a time and tell me to get my own tea then I wouldn't get so mad! It's not that hard!

[Jbck]

What's he doing as I like to make an educated guess?

[SoleSource]

My ex used to do this all of the time.

10.25pm

[ManAliveThisThingsFantastic]

He's gone out to a pub with just 1 of his friends, so not much potential for "group pressure" to stay.

[fluffyraggies]

Soul - i'll raise you ... 10.45!

[WestmorlandSausage]

sunny evening... tennis on.... I think you could be in for a long one.

[SirBoobAlot]

How about you tell him to sleep somewhere else, and order a takeaway?

[FeegleFion]

1am, if the pub shuts at 12. That's time for calling and waiting on a cab.

[wibblyjelly]

21:50

[jollyjester]

After 10 years I have a formula regarding DH time keeping!
Take whatever figure he gives and times it by 3! It always works!

he might surprise you and actually be home at 8.

[WorraLiberty]

Why didn't you tell him to stick something in the microwave or grab a takeaway on the way home?

[CajaDeLaMemoria]

9.30.

And then he'll maintain that your clock is an hour fast, and that he left on time.

[ManAliveThisThingsFantastic]

We have food in and trying to cut back on how much we spend on eating out/take out.

You sound like you speak from experience Caja! Btw, hope you're OK, I was following your thread on sleeping outside.

[MaureenMLove]

See, this is why long, long ago, I made a rule. Friday night the kitchen shuts at 5pm. It's my weekend too and if you want something, you do it yourself.

I too am playing the 'what time' game. I'm hoping its after it gets dark, then I can be in bed before he gets back!

[LittleprincessinGOLDrocks]

Ah now, with my "D"H I have to add 3 hours to his estimated time of arrival... every single day. It infuriates me!

So I would guess at 11pm!

[StuntGirl]

Can't you just stick the food in the oven and he can reheat it when he eventually gets back?

[Fluffycloudland77]

2am with a kebab half eaten and stinking of booze.

[eurozammo]

11.15.

[Pollydon]

11:30 & let him male himself a sarnie if hes hungry.

[ENormaSnob]

0420hrs

[fluffyraggies]

Well he's missed 8pm anyway ......

[Whocansay]

3am. You'll find him asleep in the hallway in the morning.

If he's going to be in trouble, he may as well be hung for a sheep than a lamb!

[thebody]

As long as he's not lying in a ditch don't worry. Pour yourself a large glass, watch the tennis and enjoy. My kitchen shuts at 6..

[Prozacbear]

I'll go 10.30. My DP would still think that was somehow acceptable and he's the same breed.

[pianodoodle]

11pm? Unless he falls asleep on the bus like mine did in which case 2am :(

Had the nerve to phone once saying he was on his way to the station. I assume then he was in a taxi playing a CD called "pub background noise No.3"?

[FeegleFion]

Maybe he's back and the OP is busy
