On holiday. Middle of the street. Wearing a strapless top and DH pulls my top down (no bra, he knows this)

I was mortified and embarrassed. He was drunk (no excuse). He said no one saw.

I feel v disrespected

Dump him.

He sounds hideous.

SensibleSigma · 16/10/2024 17:37

Sexual assault. In public.

WoodyCoppicePlantationAlmaMater · 16/10/2024 17:37

How old is this specimen?

Floys90 · 16/10/2024 17:37

We are both in our late 40s, for context

You're right to feel disrespected. You were. I wouldn't be drinking with him again

nocoolnamesleft · 16/10/2024 17:39

As kneeing him in the bollocks would be assault, have to settle for LTB.

NewMe2024 · 16/10/2024 17:39

That’s awful OP, I’m sorry. Do you have family and friends you can talk to?

TheLightSideOfTheMoon · 16/10/2024 17:39

A 40 year old sexually assaulting someone and blaming it on alcohol.

The Ick Factor is real.

I’d never look at him the same way again.

Hatty65 · 16/10/2024 17:39

I suspect this isn't the first disrespectful shit he's pulled.

It would be the last for me. I'd genuinely consider my marriage over.

SugarandSpiceandAllThingsNaice · 16/10/2024 17:39

Awful. Childish prank. Equivalent to pulling down a man’s trousers and boxer shorts.

earlylunch · 16/10/2024 17:40

i can just imagine what this pair looks like with him staggering around the street

any children?

MiddleagedBeachbum · 16/10/2024 17:40

I’d feel like I could never trust him again and would always be on guard around him…..I’m not sure how you get over something like that?

Doggymummar · 16/10/2024 17:40

I'm sorry to say I would have slapped him just a reflex reaction

SilenceInside · 16/10/2024 17:40

Bloody hell. You didn't know whether or not anyone could have seen when he did it, it doesn't matter to your reaction that he reckons no one saw. It's juvenile, disrespectful and unpleasant.

Is he like this a lot? Was he remorseful when sober?

no context was needed

Self defence, I’d say…

Attelina · 16/10/2024 17:41

Brits abroad.

He sounds absolutely dreadful. The excess drinking and pulling your top down and exposing your breasts in public is a dumpable offence.

WoodyCoppicePlantationAlmaMater · 16/10/2024 17:42

If your daughters husband had done this to her, what would your advice be?

Time to let this one loose - nothing good here.

RevelryMum · 16/10/2024 17:42

If he did that to a stranger he would be arrested why is it ok to do it to you ? He has Absolutely no respect for you at all

SkaterGrrrrl · 16/10/2024 17:43

Shocking and so disrespectful to you!! My DH would never, ever do this because he wouldn't want to humiliate me.

GladAllOver · 16/10/2024 17:44

An immediate violent slap would be a reasonable first response, and telling him he'd never see your body again the second.

TheLightSideOfTheMoon · 16/10/2024 17:44

Are you holidaying near the sea?

You could return the ‘prank’ by pushing him in. Then ‘prank’ him further by not calling for help.

When they find his body say he slipped and fell. The alcohol in his system will back it up.

If you need an alibi just say you were on MN.

arethereanyleftatall · 16/10/2024 17:45

I saw this happen once on a train and I remember feeling so so sorry or the girl.

But not because of the awful thing that happened with an absolute dickhead - but because of her life experiences that had led her to even consider spending even one second in such a vile persons company.

Gettingannoyednow · 16/10/2024 17:46

If he's an utterly different person when sober, and he never drinks again, then it might be possible to salvage something of a relationship. Maybe. Probably not though. You deserve better.

roxyro · 16/10/2024 17:48

NewMe2024 · 16/10/2024 17:39

That’s awful OP, I’m sorry. Do you have family and friends you can talk to?

Really? You’ll be advising counselling next. Maybe a therapist could help?

OP He sounds a plonker.
