To be really pissed off with DP?

He went out for his Work Christmas party last night, and came home at 1.30 hammered. I'd been in bed for a while because I had to get up at 6.30 for work.
He got into bed and drifted off. I was awoken at 3.30 by the covers being thrown back. He proceeded to stagger across the room and collapse in a heap by the door. Then he got up and fell through the door, and passed out/fell instantly asleep on the tiny landing. The collapsing/staggering/falling asleep saying he was feeling sick, proceeded into dd13s room, down the stairs, through dining and living rooms and into the bathroom with me basically picking him up, shoving, and swearing at him to move in order to get him to the toilet to hurl. I left him on the cold bathroom floor and returned to bed, but I couldn't sleep for worrying he would choke or freeze to death. So I got back up, moved him to the sofa, covered him up and turned the heating on. It was about 4.15 by the time I got back to bed, wide awake and fuming! I dragged myself up at 6.30 for work and have been seething ever since! He's "sorry", he "only had 6 pints" apparently and is annoyed that I'm still mad! He doesn't seem to see that he got so bladdered that he couldn't walk, could have fallen downstairs, injured himself, scared the shit out of poor DD who was sound asleep when he burst into the room, and disturbed my desperately needed sleep! I've got 9 days straight of 12 hour market stall shifts ahead, and am already knackered!

In his defense this isn't a regular occurrence, he rarely goes out, but surely nobody needs to be that drunk?!

Ach, if it's a one-off I'd let it go.

That's what my mum said, but being shattered really doesn't do anything for my objectivity! Confused

Nope, you are not BU. My partner hardly drinks now but whenever he does I always ask him to not come home or to sleep on the sofa so he doesn't wake me up. We've got a 3 yr old & a 5 month old so I havent had a complete night's sleep with one thing & another for nearly 4 years. So the last thing i need is to be woken up by his drunken moaning & groaning & staggering around. But without fail he always comes home, gets into our bed & wakes me up. Drives me insane!
Hope you get a decent kip tonight.

I'd better do!

Awww, I can't imagine telling DP not to come home. I like to see he's back and safe.

That said, I have no children, and he does try to be quiet. He's also never been drunk enough to stagger everywhere or throw up.

No it's just a one off, But I would expect him to run me a bath and cook dinner/ organise a take away when I got back. I can understand why peeved, an early start after a disturbed night is hard work.

Blush bloody typos

CatPussRoastingOnAnOpenFire · 15/12/2012 20:00

Huh! I've just cooked dinner and now he is in the bath!

Oh bugger, is he still hung over ?
Hope you get a good night tonight.
