Gahh... DH not yet home after a night out, hugely out of character, help me stay calm please?

My lovely DH is a SAHD and very very rarely goes out. Tonight he went out locally with 3 or 4 friends, I’ve met a couple of them briefly (so know first names) but don’t really know them. It was drinks at one person’s house, then out to a bar in our (small rural) town then back to someone’s house for more drinks.

We figured he’d be home around 2am. I made the spare room up just in case he was a bit worse for wear, so he didn’t wake up me and the baby.

It’s now quarter to six, I’m awake with the baby (toddler will be through in the next half hour too) the weather outside is awful and he still isn’t home, and I am really worried.

The text I sent him half an hour ago has been delivered but not read. I rang him once 15 mins ago - his phone rang but he didn’t answer.

Please somebody talk me down. I don’t mind if he’s pissed and crashed at someone’s house, I don’t care if he is hung over today, he rarely gets a night out and I want him to have had fun. I am just very very worried especially with the awful weather that he is hurt or something happened on the walk home or something. Gah! Grip please?

Glad he's ok 😊

Glad he's ok. I'd be tempted to let the toddler play drums on your pots and pans when he returns!! Grin

You know that nice sparkly item you were after OP, now is the time to gently nudge DH... Wink
Jokes aside, glad he's OK, and good that he has mates who will go kick him for you rather than ignore you.

Now ltb!

I understand why you would be worried. He said he was going back to a house so he is more than likely there in a deep sleep and phone in jacket pocket which is no where near him.
He may have not wanted to call you in case he work you and kids up.
Try not worry he will be home soon sick as a small hospital.

Glad he’s safe OP.

A friend of my DH once got a taxi home after a very boozy night with DH in London. His wife phoned us early the next morning to say he wasn’t home. Turned out that he’d passed out in the taxi so the driver had relieved him of his expensive watch and dumped him in a field Shock

Did he get his watch back @ShannonRockallMalin 😳

@greyspottedgoose, it was a long time ago, but I don’t think so. Didn’t teach him not to get slaughtered though Hmm
