Original poster

Would you have a couple of glasses of wine if your dc had a friend sleep over?

Dc (year 7) asked a friend to sleep over quite last minute today. Said yes of course. But usually dh and I would have a couple of glasses of wine with a movie on a Saturday night.

I've left the wine in the fridge as I'm just not sure what the "rules" are on this!

My God, I can’t believe I’m quoting your own words back to you - again - you said (upthread in black and white):

”for example if she wanted to have a full bottle which in the real world people do.”

She (singular) wanted to have a full bottle.

No, most people sitting at home with their DH don’t want a full bottle each?!

We’re not talking about having people over, entertaining, where feasibly, an entire bottle each might be sunk….?

OP - if you want a glass or two, I really think that’s fine. If you want to sink an entire bottle, perhaps abstaining might be for the best.

In any case, the original comment about ‘drinking as much as I want’ wasn’t made by either of you, so … 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'll drink a bottle.of wine on a night if I want to. You are utterly batshit and if you dont stop harassing me like this I will report you.
Go and find someone else to bully. As I can see you struggle respecting boundaries at all, il be clear.
Leave me alone.

I’m not saying you can’t…? 😳

You told a whole ‘nother poster they couldn’t drink as much as they want - obviously based on your idea of how much you would want.

I’m not ‘bullying’ you, I’m simply disagreeing with you. This is a discussion forum.
