AIBU partner went out and got extremely drunk!

[Stupidy]

Ok what does everyone else think.
Partner went out last night on the pi**, I specifically said please don't get too drunk as it's Christmas eve tomorrow (today) and we have lots to do to get ready for Christmas! (4 little angels) I had to get up early to go and get last bits without the kids obviously!
So partner rolls in early hours, waking myself and 12yr old, throwing up and expecting sympathy! Needless to say pillow and blanket was left on the sofa!
Now today, still laying on the sofa being sick! Not moved at all other than to get to the bowl! Am I right in being extremely pi**ed off about this! As now I have to do everything to get christmas ready for us and my mother and grandfather who are coming tomorrow!

Depends. One off or regular occurrence? Is he normally thoughtless and useless or is this a one off?

TBF, he’s probably pissed off too about the state he is in.

Let him recover in peace. In sickness and in health, and all that.

In all honesty it's a one off, But surely knowing what we had to do today, it's not exactly fair leaving me to do it all while recovering.

Not unreasonable to be pissed off. Don't pander to his hangover.

Thoughtless but not the end of the world. Surely you're mostly sorted by now?

Blimey this site is full of women who are a lot more forgiving than I am!

Going out and getting that drunk the night before Christmas Eve when you have kids is just out of order. But hey, mum will pick up the slack and sort everything out right?

Self inflicted hangovers get no sympathy from me!

No I agree definitely not end of the world but really peeved being woken up by the thoughtless drunken idiot. Haha.
Not quite, still haven't even started preparing for dinner

Fairness is all about giving and taking. Do you never do anything wrong that he has to deal with?

The timing is unfortunate, but it is the festive season. A lot of people drink far more than they are used to - it’s a learning experience.

Forgiveness is a wonderful thing.

Send him out later on a hunt for pre prepared veg. He can walk. The fresh air will do him good!!

I see what you're saying, still can't help but think it may be a good idea to boil up some mackerel to make it smell yummy

I've already been out and got the last minute bits and am about to start on the veg

Bugger that. Go out with the kids for a bit so you don't have to see him "suffering". He can do the bloody veg himself later. Don't be a martyr and do it all yourself.
And fry an egg for lunch before you go!

I think it’s totally fine that he went out and got steaming drunk, but I’d be pissed off with the lying on the sofa!

But it's just YOUR relatives coming tomorrow? Is that right?

Yes it is, unfortunately partners relativeslive a long way off and don't travel down at Christmas :-(

Well nothing seems to be changing apart from the waking up to be sick! Maybe I should forget the alcoholic Christmas presents! or better still, open a bottle of wine!

He probably intended to be sensible but after a couple of drinks a couple more seemed like the best idea in the world. Happens to most of us. I think he's probably regretting it now.

A learning experience? He has four kids so I'm assuming he's had many years to learn how to handle his booze.

Well at 31 you would think that you have learnt to take things easy and not over do it :-( and still no movement grrr

Reminds me of this picture. I think a lot of us have done something similar at one point in our lives.

We go out with good intentions of not drinking too much, getting home at a sensible time and then ending up in a horrible state.

It's far from ideal and I can understand why you're upset. Personally though I'd prefer he stayed where he was with a handy bowl if he's still puking rather than wandering round 'trying to help' and vomming onto everything.

This picture?

Oh FFS, apologies for the double fox pic - it wasn't showing after I posted the first time. Wanky internet

Force feed him a litre of water. He must be really dehydrated by now, and it'll help to dilute whatever alcohol is still in his system.

It's about to go wrong I'm sure, I'm just going to pour myself a nice glass of something with a percentage of alcohol but being the only (semi) responsible adult I'll have one or 2 then realise it's Christmas day tomorrow and I need to be ready for 4 very excited children.....
