To be annoyed with dh

for waking up ds at 5.30

He came in pissed at 1.30
Fell asleep on the couch, woke up 5.30, and clambering around, woke up ds, who will not go back to sleep at that time
Every weekday morning he wakes him up

He's going to be grumpy and hungover
Yes he works hard, and long hours, but he's been out 3 times this week
He's not helping himself
I'm so sick of it

Go out tonight. Get hammered. Stumble in at the time of your choosing and vomit kebab onto his head. Then lie on the sofa all day tomorrow making unreasonable demands. Why should he get to have all the fun?

give him a taste of his own medicine. if he's hungover, give him lots of tasks to do. as tomorrow is mother's day, make him get up nice and early and make you breakfast in bed, then you can lie around all day and get him to do everything for you.

He's v hungover. Ha
I've sent him into the other room, cos he kept moaning at ds.
I'm really annoyed now

Make loads of noise.

ENormaSnob · 09/03/2013 12:17

A one off can be forgiven but 3 times this week?

He's taking the piss and you're a mug.

livinginwonderland · 09/03/2013 12:17

be noisy. do the laundry, make a very noisy lunch (lots of pots and pans and strong smells) and tell him to grow up and that you expect him to wait on you hand on foot for punishment mothers day.

almostanotherday · 09/03/2013 12:19

Yes to the make lots of noise, strip the bed sheets so he can't get back in and leave him with DC while you go shopping Smile

MrsLouisTheroux · 09/03/2013 15:36

Hope your day has got better OP! Plan a day/ night (or both) off for yourself!

MrsLouisTheroux · 09/03/2013 15:37

Do you have tesco club card vouchers? £10 gets changed to £40 to eat out!

MrsLouisTheroux · 09/03/2013 15:38

Wrong thread!!! Sorry!

SPsFanjoTheBigStickyHaribo · 09/03/2013 15:39

Give your son a pan and wooden spoon and put him in the same room as the dirty stop out Grin

When I was a teen and mum knew Id been drinking she would send my little brother in to my room with a pan and spoon

SmiteYouWithThunderbolts · 09/03/2013 15:39

Why do you continue to tolerate this man? You've posted SO many threads detailing what an arse he is, I can't for the life of me see why you're still with him.

Hassled · 09/03/2013 15:40

3 times a week is ridiculous - is he 18? Have you tried talking to him about it (when he's not pissed or hungover)? It sounds like he needs to grow up pronto.

1991all · 09/03/2013 15:52

Thunderbolts-because I'm depressed and anxious, really can't pull myself together. Have no money and nowhere to go, have organised him to leave, he won't go. Had counselling, me, him, joint

Am going back to the gp this week for about the 8th time

I think it's actually 4 times in 8 days
Twice with me and friends(unusual, but some friends in town)
And twice with colleagues.

The more you put up with it the worse it will get. Believe me, am speaking from experience. Have been putting up with unreasonable behaviour for 10yrs, he keeps saying he will leave but never does. How can you make someone go? and if they do go you worry that you won't be able to cope on your own, even though that is what you are doing anyway. Can you confide in a friend or relative? Keep going to your doctor until you get the right kind of help. Good luck.

Weekend taken a bit of a turn
He was looking at flats this morning after a big talk last night

Horrible 2 days

Hope you're ok ?! What happened ? Xx

Snoopingforsoup · 10/03/2013 17:35

Nope, YANBU. I am always bloody livid when DH does this to me.
I haven't worked out the answer unfortunately!

Snoopingforsoup · 10/03/2013 17:36

Oh Crikey, just seen your latest post.
Hope everything resolves.

idshagphilspencer · 10/03/2013 17:40

Op are you OK?

1991all · 10/03/2013 17:49

I'm fine, very calm
He just seems to be understanding how unhappy I am
Problem is that he's unhappy in different ways

But he's at his most unreasonable when tired and stressed, so weekend has been a bit of a nightmare
Ratty, tired, grumpy, really irrational. So difficult to discuss anything seriously
Especially as ds seems to be very trying too

It gets to this point and he alternates between tears and threatening to leave work( and the country) so really grown up and sensible!

I've heard it all before
Over and over
Just hope he stays on track with finding a place of his own
