To make him wash his own trousers

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 10:04

Last night my OH went out it was the the 10th anniversary of the bar so the drinks were flowing free, I don't mind that he got super drunk if I wasn't BF with a young baby I would have loved it, however when he came back he informed me drunkenly he had peed his trousers I made him wipe himself down (too drunk to wash) and go to bed after inspecting his clothes he had sh*t himself royally it's a mess!!!

Do I bag it up and make him wash it when he comes back from work at 1pm even though he is warmed up death today?

What's the worse state your partners been in?

Well yes the shitty trousers wouldn’t get anywhere near any other clothes especially mine that’s for sure. Only place would be the bin. Thanks for an explanation Lying, that’s one reason I guess why some households do washing separately I guess.

I think OP is getting a hard time and her DH sounds nowhere near an alcoholic, just had a badly judged alcohol evening, but I’ve been in a state once or twice and never been close to losing control of bodily functions. That’s grim.

Tell you what's worse, Hilda, the pointless, scolding posts from you and posters like you. Who do you think you are exactly? To speak to another adult like that?

Ellie56 · 24/03/2018 11:34

Glad you have so much money you can afford to bin a pair of trousers .

I would have made him wash them himself. When he saw how grim they were he would remember that for a long time and a repeat performance would be less likely.

CammieKennaway · 24/03/2018 11:34

Seeing as it's a one off, I'd just bin them and tell him exactly why I've binned them without it becoming an argument and I'd get the bed stripped and the bedding washed.
To be fair to the poor guy (who's getting a hard time), he's obviously just got too carried away with the drinking and I think the humongous hangover and pure embarrassment is punishment enough. Kudos to him for getting up and going to work as it's bad enough being hungover when you have a day off.
If he ever did it again though, then it'd be time for harsh words and making him take his poopy pants to the launderette and making him wash them in public haha

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 24/03/2018 11:38

ThroughThick, I've never been in this position due to drinking but I have when ill when it's a race for the loo and a choice between vomiting or pooing in the actual loo.

It's the response to that though - I wouldn't leave it for my husband to clean up - nor would he. As OP's husband was so pickled last night and she says that he's ashamed of being drunk and it's not a regular thing, I really don't see why she's being slated.

I wouldn't want half of the relationships that some posters are gloating over on this thread. Urgh. Imagine being partnered/married to that.

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 11:39

Just came back to say thanks to the lyingthewitchandthewadrobe, and congratulations on being teetotal X the offensive jeans were in a plastic bag not just hanging around waiting for me to clean lol spoken to him and they were going to be thrown away.

He won't be home straight away as he is going in the pissing rain to buy lunch, dinner and bits I need for our trip tomorrow and new bed sheets lol.

Who wants to take bets on the I'm sorry gift/prat present.

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 11:41

He hasn't had a new pair of jeans in 5 years not that rich lol

I wanted to ask OP about how this happened. Not sure if she's gone now though.
Did he get in a mess trying to go to the loo (like wiching said) or was he totally unaware he had lost control of his bowels? Awareness is important. Being quite unaware is really a worry. It is it not normal and OP is a bit niave to brush it off. The trousers washing is secondary issue in my view.

Missing the point here but in my view an 8 year old washing their own uniform sounds a bit sad....sorry.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 24/03/2018 11:49

Quite agree lying I guessed when I opened the thread what it could be about it, and just knew there would be a great big pile in designed to make the op feel terrible.

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 11:49

From what I can gather it was a double end situation in the street on the walk home atleast into a bin but pretty grim. I knew someone who was with q horrible alcoholic and he would wet the bed...I wouldn't stand for that and neither did she.

I'm glad you've come back Firsttimefreaked. I can't understand why you've had such a pasting but I suspect that it's difficult for posters to tell you what to do when you have a brain and sense of humour of your own... damn that pesky sense of self-worth you have going on there. Wink

I don't know how easy it is to get shit out of jeans but I suspect better to chuck them out.

I'll take a punt on an 'I'm very sorry, darling' present! It had better be something divine. Jo Malone? Grin

Enjoy your trip tomorrow and just laugh all this off, safe in the knowledge that you'll have 'points' you can use for any future whims you may have.

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 11:52

I was planing on going but roller coaster of mirth drew me back in.

Why on earth do you need MN validation to know what to do? For goodness sake.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 24/03/2018 11:54

ThroughThick, Yes indeed. Always the same lemon-sucking faces too. I don't get it. This board used to be quite fun but now it seems to be where the 'leftovers' post, the undesirables who have no social skills or ability to comprehend a post. It's unfortunate when those lacking skills are accompanied by a will and determination to slap people down all the time. Oh well.

Happy for the OP who is going to have a lovely weekend now that shit-gate is over. Grin

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 11:57

I need points after accidentally melting the kettle on the electric hob as I forgot it was hot...I've always had gas, I miss it.

Baubletrouble43 · 24/03/2018 11:59

my expartner used to get so drunk he would piss the bed. It was one of the many reasons I ceased being attracted to him. I really couldn't be with someone like that. Yuk.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 24/03/2018 12:00

Tell him HE must have done it last night, tsk... Wink

Shock
Baubletrouble43 · 24/03/2018 12:01

Mind you, current dp farted and followed through on our first romantic weekend away together and had to scrub some stains out of the hotel bedlinen.....

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 24/03/2018 12:02

Are you going somewhere nice and hot or somewhere in the UK, Firsttimefreaked?

I've been watching 'Last Tango in Halifax' and it makes me want to move to Yorkshire... so beautiful!

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 12:03

I would also be horrified if my oh had a go,shouted or read me the riot act. We sometimes have stern words like please remember to do the cat litter everyday as its unpleasant and the smell drives me mad or wet towels don't go on the bed please stop I've put a bathroom towel ril up.

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 12:06

Aww bubbletrouble the things we do for love (not to be fined), lying sadly it's the opposite I live somewhere hot and are visiting in laws in Cornwall, oddly raining today but warm.

OP posts:
Baubletrouble43 · 24/03/2018 12:08

Haha I'm in Cornwall. Whatever possessed you to visit this time of year??

Firstimefreaked · 24/03/2018 12:08

Yorkshire is beautiful, since moving abroad I really appreciate watching British television with pretty landscapes.

Oh FFS not another shitting/pissing bloke. Nasty.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 24/03/2018 12:09

It's not what we do either, Firstimefreaked, what's the point? It might not be Moons-and-Junes all the time but we like each other well enough that there's no 'boss of the relationship' and it works for us. Nobody else's opinion matters either.

Different strokes for different folks though.
