YANBU!

puds11 · 27/08/2012 19:43

I always sympathize because i can still remember how bad my last hangover in may was!

WorraLiberty · 27/08/2012 19:44

Depends on how often he does it and if it affects you I suppose?

TraineeBabyCatcher · 27/08/2012 19:46

It's actually his first proper hang over.
Neither of us drink a huge amount/or frequently. He went out for a celebration last night and just got caught up with the night.
It's made no difference to me today as I've been busy and ds is at his grandparents anyway.

He keeps sighing. Is it wrong that I find it slightly amusing?

You can be amused but sympathetic. DH wins major brownie points by being kind on the rare occasions I have a hangover.

JustFabulous · 27/08/2012 19:48

YABM

It is his first one.

You can't moan when he laughs at you when you have one.

He can be as unsympathetic as he likes when I suffer my first one. It'll be entirely self inflicted so imo he would be well within his rights (oh and if the day ever comes he will gloat, alot)

Don't be mean, YABU!!

puds11 · 27/08/2012 20:10

Make him a cuppa then he has to do the same for you when your hung over. Remember karma is a bitch!

HermioneJeanGranger · 20/10/2016 14:55

Don't be too mean - karma is a bitch!

BowieFan · 20/10/2016 14:59

YAB a bit U. It's his first hangover and I had sympathy the first time DS1 got one a couple of weeks ago. I never get hungover for some reason but DP does after one or two drinks and I always feel a bit sorry for him.

limeandsoda93 · 20/10/2016 15:00

I haven't had a hangover for a good couple of years now but I remember some real corkers that I definitely needed sympathy for! Also it really depends on the situation surrounding it, did he embarass you when drunk, or crash into the house breaking things and waking you up at 5 in the morning or quietly sneak in and crawl into bed? The latter would get my sympathy, the former would seriously struggle.

JennyOnAPlate · 20/10/2016 15:02

This thread is from 2012! I expect he's recovered from his hangover by now!!

OutDamnedWind · 20/10/2016 15:29

One would hope so anyway Grin

RebeccaWithTheGoodHair · 20/10/2016 15:32

When I read this I thought Puds and Hermione had cross-posted but now I realise there's 4 years between their posts!!

ClaudiaNaughton · 20/10/2016 15:36

Thought mumsnet were going to do an alert for zombie threads.

QueenLizIII · 20/10/2016 15:49

He doesn't do it habitually. First time.

Ffs why are people so intolerant even of a very good partner.

Mynestisfullofempty · 20/10/2016 15:51

HermioneJeanGranger Why on earth did you find and reply to this thread over 4 years after it was posted? Confused

AndNowItsSeven · 20/10/2016 15:53

Did karma bite you in the butt op?

ANewStartOverseas · 20/10/2016 15:59

So no one else is getting caught up

I'd love the OP to come back and tell us if her dp is over his hangover, four years later
