AIBU?

Dp.. Drunk!

66 replies

HappierThanEverBefore · 24/01/2015 01:11

'Dp' really needs to learn his limits. Yet another Friday night where he's thrown up over the carpet .. There's a bloody bucket next to him!!

He's been out drinking with his mate who I hate! It always ends like this... He goes out with others and this doesn't happen

I want to leave the sick for him to clean up but the smell is making me heave so looks like I'll be cleaning it up!

AIBU to want to get his face and rub it in the sick?

It's Friday night, chill !!

Palooza · 24/01/2015 01:14

YANBU if this is a regular occurrence. How old is he?

MrsCakesPrecognition · 24/01/2015 01:14

Scrape up some of the sick, put it in a freezer bag.Tuck it into his briefcase/gym bag and leave it for him to deal with at a later date.

HappierThanEverBefore · 24/01/2015 01:17

It's nearly every week now, I'm fed up of clearing up his sick as he doesn't know his limit! He's 28 so really needs to grow up!

Exactly the pony Janethegirl , it's Friday night. I'm sure Op would love to be relaxing instead of being surrounded by barf fumes and chunks all over the carpet!

Get a grip!

scarletforya · 24/01/2015 01:23

Exactly the point*

WorraLiberty · 24/01/2015 01:23

Do NOT clean up the sick

If he's thrown up in the bedroom then sleep on the couch

If he's thrown up in the lounge then sleep in the bedroom

Spray some perfume on your wrist and sleep with it close to your nose but for goodness sake, leave it for him to deal with while he has a hangover.

If his behaviour doesn't have a consequence, why would he ever change it?

And I say that as someone who would clean up after my DH if he really got drunk and sick, because if he did it would be completely out of character for him...but I do understand these things can happen very occasionally.

But you've said it 'always ends like this' and that's not on at all.

HappierThanEverBefore · 24/01/2015 01:24

Chilling isn't on the agenda now Janethegirl!

I left the house at 8am and got in at 12:45am!

Chilling or sleeping is the one thing I WANT to be doing! Instead I'm scrubbing the bloody carpet while he snores his head off...

Might just clang about loudly in the morning!

Never thought id ever say this but what Worra said.

He really needs to sort this out. Does he have a drink problem do you think?

If you're cleaning up he's got no consequences. I know sometimes you just can't leave it, carpet or whatever, but could you force him into a bathroom/lock the front door and make him sleep in the porch when it's not so cold/etc?

It's really not on. If he was 18 I'd have more sympathy. If he's getting like this with work colleagues he'll be undermining his standing at work too.

LeftyLoony · 24/01/2015 01:27

DON'T DO IT!

LEAVE IT!

Remove yourself and let him get on with it.

HappierThanEverBefore · 24/01/2015 01:28

He's now snoring his head off in bed!

Wish I could sleep on the sofa but we're living with his parents and they'll be up at some ungodly hour... I need sleep!!

OP posts:

FightOrFlight · 24/01/2015 01:28

Does he have a drink problem do you think?

Yes, he can't handle it.

emotionsecho · 24/01/2015 01:29

Next time he goes out with this particular friend ask him to find somewhere else to stay the night. As Worra has said if you can leave the sick for him to clear up, do. Also, don't pander to his hangover tomorrow.

FightOrFlight · 24/01/2015 01:30

Drag him out of the bed and leave him on the floor with his nose positioned next to the place he puked.

Get into comfortable bed and go to sleep.

HappierThanEverBefore · 24/01/2015 01:31

I don't think he has a drink problem a its only when he goes out with this one particular friend. This friend is a druggie & a low life (sorry if I upset anyone).

Sick now cleaned up! But chucked all kitchen towel and gloves I used in the bath so he can deal with that tomorrow!

OP posts:

DecaffCoffeeAndRollupsPlease · 24/01/2015 01:32

Can you kick him out onto the sofa. What do his parents think of him throwing up on their carpet?

He's being completely unreasonable and unless he changes his behaviour immediately I think you should LtB. Sorry, I don't say that often but... what are you getting out of this relationship?

WorraLiberty · 24/01/2015 01:33

Oh yes because clanging loudly in the morning is going to make a difference to his behaviour...

Leave the sick

Let him clean it in the morning

Sleep on the couch and tell his parents why you've been forced to.

Honestly, if he never has to deal with the consequences of his behaviour then you're in for a miserable martyr type life.

It's your choice.

emotionsecho · 24/01/2015 01:34

Sounds like because you're living with his parents he still thinks he's 18, definitely time for him to grow up or you to find an adult to be with.

WorraLiberty · 24/01/2015 01:34

Wow! That'll learn 'im.....

HappierThanEverBefore · 24/01/2015 01:35

His parents aren't bothered and give him sympathy for the hangover etc - can't wait to get out of here.

Apart from nights like this our relationship is pretty good. I just wish he wouldn't see this mate as often and drink as much.

When you say his friend is a druggie are we talking spliff or the harder stuff?

If DP has been drinking and then smoked a joint that will explain the puking if he's not used to it.

mathanxiety · 24/01/2015 01:39

So get out of there. Just go.

What are you waiting for?

mathanxiety · 24/01/2015 01:40

He is choosing this mate over you and over his own dignity.
