chubsasaurus · 03/04/2011 18:15

I'm going on holiday with my lovely, widowed and ageing father tomorrow which is great, looking forward to it etc, but in 3 hours I have to go back to his house leaving DP in our house for the next 15 days. AIBU to be totally grateful to lovely father but already feeling a bit of loss and sadness... it's only 2 weeks... but 2 weeks of the sort of fun DP and I together would adore... sad face :( (he's at the shop buying wine, i'm not just wasting our final couple of hours for weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeks)

Vom!

Learn a bit of self sufficency love, it will be good for you in the long run.

Shiney, if it was for one night, I'd be eye rolling right with you!

COCKadoodledooo · 03/04/2011 20:42

I shall selflessly volunteer to go on holiday with your dad so you can stay home with your 'beautiful dp'. No really. You'd be doing me a favour. Mine is pissing me off no end.

Ignore the nasty posts on here, YANBU, I would hate that so much, my DH is my best friend, I would miss him terribly.Think those who are being nasty are a bit jealous that they don't have that kind of relationship tbh!

I was a bit drunk earlier.

I need to man the f*ck up.

He is a right hottie though, and no I'm not 12 and we've been together years and years

Where's our picture so we can pronounce on said hotness, please?

thefirstMrsDeVere · 03/04/2011 20:52

You lot are so mean. Leave her alone to be all misty eyed bless her Grin

Who said they wouldnt notice if their OH went missing for a couple of weeks? Pretty sure my OH wouldnt notice if I went awol for a month. Until he ran out of probiotic yogurts, museli and apples of course Hmm

Hahaha just noticed OP was a bit pissed when she posted.

THATS more like it

EricNorthmansMistress · 03/04/2011 20:52

It's very sweet that you will miss him so much. However you will be just fine. Spend the time doing things you don't usually have the time to do. When my DH goes away I like to reorganise the house without asking his advice because his advice on furniture arrangements is usually rubbish. (kinder now since you seem to have realised you were being a tit)

QueeferSutherland · 03/04/2011 20:53

Aw, bless your drunken heart.

It's not U that you'll miss him.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder n'all. You'll love him EVEN MORE by the time you get back. Imagine that!

dementedma · 03/04/2011 20:53

jeez, what wouldn't I give for two weeks without DH?
enjoy - I am pig jealous.

I'd miss my DH too and he's not even that beautiful.

MavisEnderby · 03/04/2011 20:59

:o Enjoy dp

and hols with df,I bet df really appreciates that you are spending time with him.From experience as fairly recently widowed having nearest and dearest around is the best medicine:)

and as they say absence makes the heart grow fonder,so imagine the fun when you get back:)

DF is wonderful, I'm so glad I'm going to see him for a couple of weeks. TO all who rightly told me to grow up - I am self sufficient, I can handle life without both men and this particular man, but he makes me laugh constantly, he's a very gorgeous piece of meat, the sex is still spot on and drinking out of coconuts just really accentuate his abscence!

YABU. What about your widowed dad? Do you think he misses your mum (I assume your mum ... but clearly, his late wife). 2 weeks is nowt compared to a lifetime without your partner.

Escallonia · 03/04/2011 21:04

x-post glad to hear you are being a bit more robust. Please make sure you don't go on about how much you miss your DP in front of your dad though!

Niecie · 03/04/2011 21:05

You might have had a little more sympathy is you had been left at home (with loads of children preferably) and your DP had gone away with his family. You've got the easy bit - you get to have a nice time with your Dad. DP is the one at home with an empty house.

A brief wallow in the 'sadness' is OK when you part. Ruining 2 weeks of holiday pining for your DP is not. However, I bet you have a lovely time and the time will fly. Enjoy.

I know, darling mother passed away many years ago and my darling father has been very strong since and never wanted to meet someone new. I'm sorry for appearing ungrateful, I feel bad now I'm not wallowing in two bottles of wine tipsy loved up self pity.

Will make mental note to stop being so utterly lame
