to ask if you have equal measures of wine

[cjt110]

2 of us. DH and I. matching wine glasses. We fill our glasses level. One of the matching glasses has broken leaving 2 very different ones.

One of us - I will not say who - has taken to decanting the wine into a measuring jug to ensure equal measures are distributed until new glasses are purchased.

Is the whole equal measures thing weird or the done thing?

Seems weird to me, and slightly mean...

Well if I'm drinking wine, and DH decides he wants some, I will pour and he will always get less. We never have equal measures and quite frankly he's lucky I share

But you don't need a jug.
Pour Acceptable Amount into Glass 1.
Tip that into Glass 2.
Repeat.

Weird, but I count things like Maltesers and M and Ms to divide them between us.

My Dh would do the decanting into a jug method. This is how his family do everything,

The only time I measure alcohol is if I'm looking to lose weight.

If we had different size wine glasses i'd always take the bigger one

Oops.

What I meant, of course, is
'Poor new Acceptable Amount into Glass 1'.
Not
'Keep on topping up Glass 2 in the face of all reason/until bottle finished'

*Pour

Am honestly not already pissed.

That's slightly weird tbh
Just pour what you fancy

Super weird I just pour the wine.

One of you should pour both glasses and the other should choose which glass they want.

Bravo!

We have been known to weigh wine to ensure equal portions. That's was before we could afford to replace wine glasses when we smashed one, trick is to buy generic supermarket glasses that be replaced like for like

Buggerlumps Too right!!😂😂

Yes Buggerlumps!

I concede it must be a bit weird. We only buy cheap supermarket ones as he's already smashed enough on our quartz worktop but I just havent had time to go and get one/keep forgetting.

There's only 2 of us. My parents don;t drink and tbf, we don't have people round really...

Totally weird. I'd be a bit worried about an adult who was that invested in having so exact an equal share of something like that. It's childish, mean-spirited and twattish.

I'm with you (and Eolian) on this one.

YANBU for thinking it weird. YABU however for letting DH have an equal share of the wine.

One pours, the other chooses first.

We have a cupboard of odd glasses but I can usually put a pair together. To match four would be a stretch.

This thread has made me laugh

Nowt as strange as folk!

Bitch doesn't share wine.

Also, the pair of you are obviously not drinking enough if you can see the measure line. Buy an extra bottle, smash the measuring jug on the quartz and enjoy yourselves.

We have all sorts of random one glasses. In the same vein as a similar thread, I think I might cull them all. If it doesn't have at least 1 buddy, it doesn't belong!

*This thread has made me laugh smile

Nowt as strange as folk!*

Shit. That must mean it's likely DM bait

Buy an extra bottle, smash the measuring jug on the quartz and enjoy yourselves. I want wine tonight but he's up at 5 ergo we're all up at 5 as the toddler thinks it must be morning...

Oh. and the jugs plastic.

I would pour equalish amounts with friends or DP allowing for the volume of the glass but would be very if someone got a measuring jug out.

Why do you only own 2 wine glasses?

I am pregnant so currently can't drink 😢But when I can I fill the glass until I'm happy, if dh gives me a glass with less than I want he gets a look until it's filled to my happy level. We do not care if we don't have the same amount
