I woke up to see/hear drunk DH piss on the laundry floor a bit then end up in the laundry sink, I am disgusted and want to leave it for him to mop up.
We dont have any dc to step in it and only the cat is inside, would I BU to leave it for him?
Hes never done this before!

It's not really a big deal and we've all been there

I haven’t. I’ve been married for 24yrs and DH has never pissed an where other than the toilet. We’ve got 2 sons (21&23) and not once have they come in steaming drunk, nor have they pissed on the floor, in a wardrobe, or the bed.

I wasn’t aware this sort of behaviour was a thing until I joined MN.

TheFairyCaravan · 31/03/2018 22:09

Funny how so many people have been defending Ant McPartlin for potentially injuring someone when over the limit yet a cheeky tiddle on the floor is a hanging offence! Only on MM.,,,

That’s a huge leap! Hmm And for the record I’ve not defended Ant McPartlin anhwhere.

I was aware because I had a total waste of space alcoholic father. No way would I tolerate it from a partner. Yes we've all been very drunk (or most of us, anyway!) but no, we haven't all found ourselves pissing all over the house.

SilverySurfer · 31/03/2018 22:10

WTF - a cheeky tiddle??? I don't know what sort of world you live in but it bears no resemblance to mine, thank god.

thegreylady · 31/03/2018 22:11

My dh once went into the walk in wardrobe and peed on the floor thinking he was in the loo. He was very drunk but we also found out a few months later that he was in the early stages of MS and his bladder control was weak.

WellThisIsShit · 31/03/2018 22:11

Personally I’d leave it there for him to clean up, but if he’s genuinely lovely the rest of the time and this is a one off, maybe I’d soften on that...

dontbesillyhenry · 31/03/2018 22:11

Silver I can see you hoiking your bosom and hear you tutting like Les Dawson from here

LipstickHandbagCoffee · 31/03/2018 22:13

Hoik is a very good word,as is bosom

Babyplaymat · 31/03/2018 22:16

The only time I've seen my husband plastered he fell over walking home and got brought home by some kindly passers by. He was mortified. Didn't pee on the floor, but did give up drinking for a few years afterwards. He now has the odd one on occasion.

speakout · 31/03/2018 22:28

No.

Oh is chatty but dignified drunk, tends to talk politics. Never pisses anywhere he shouldn't.

AtSea1979 · 31/03/2018 22:29

Since it’s a one off I’d clean it up and look after DH.
I rarely drink since having DC so now 3 glasses of wine floors me. A couple of years ago I had 3 glasses and was so sick, I was grateful to DP for being kind and helping me rather than lecturing me on being in a mess.

CottonSock · 31/03/2018 22:34

As a student, my sister visited my house share. Middle of night she went walkies and into my housemates room. Pissed on floor in full view Blush

dontbesillyhenry · 31/03/2018 22:34

I wet myself when not pissed on one occasion. I was pregnant and dreamt I was sat on the toilet and woke up sopping wet. Luckily DH didn't leave me

BrutusMcDogface · 31/03/2018 22:36

Again, this is a very different situation! 🤦‍♂️

8SaltandVinegar · 31/03/2018 22:47

@Happypoobum Given your age you'll soon be pissing yourself so don't be so smug.

Mocking is catching.

Steeley113 · 31/03/2018 23:12

@BrutusMcDogface not really, I know I’ll probably piss myself if I jump on the trampoline but sometimes I can’t help but go on it Grin seriously, he just got a bit confused about where he was in a bit of a state. He wasn’t unconscious.

madein1995 · 01/04/2018 01:44

rudgie I hope you're joking (although you did sound pretty serious...) saying someone is too disgusting to be saved - wow!

OP it's not right, and it is disgusting. Judging by your posting on Here it seems like this is the only time it's happened. Up to you if you clean it (it will smell if you leave it) but have a stern word with dh next morning. Say you didn't marry a drunk and don't want that to start now. Let him know in no uncertain terms that it is disgusting, unacceptable and he should not get in that state again. Even putting the pissing to one side for a moment, it's incredibly dangerous for him to have been in that state. He was vulnerable to attack, and could choke on his own vomit. Put him in recovery position and watch him overnight, and let him know tomorrow that if it wasn't for you he might not be waking up. He's a grown man not a child, needs to understand the consequences of his actions.

Put please don't leave him tonight. Even if you put him in the recovery position he could roll back over in the night. You have every right to bollock him and be angry in the morning, but for now look after him. Being angry isn't worth risking his life over. And before people start shouting that it'd be his fault - yes it would, but death is hardly a punishment - take care of your h for tonight. He would do the same for you

In the morning, bollock him and then catch up on your sleep. And make it clear he owes you some favours!

madein1995 · 01/04/2018 01:49

Oh and my placid dad got in similar state when i was younger. He never drinks very much as a rule, but we were over my aunties house and uncle rather than giving him southern comfort and coke, gave him whisky and coke. Knowing full well dad didn't drink whisky as it didn't agreed with him (lesson learnt when young). Dad somehow didn't notice the taste. Attempted to climb a fence, snapped at mam (in a shut up kind of way) and was sick 3 times. Didn't rdmembsr anything the next day. Mam wasn't pleased, sat up all night with him, shouted a bit the next morning - but it was completely out of character and a complete one off occurance. Sometimes it isn't always black and white

MargotLovedTom1 · 01/04/2018 01:49

It's hardly 'hold the front page' levels of shock.

NinkyNonk1 · 01/04/2018 02:22

A long ago ex pissed the bed we were sleeping in after a night out. When I woke up and realised the bed was wet he didn't even care we had nothing else to use to stay warm the rest of the night so I could sleep on the sofa. That relationship ended pretty sharpish!

AlmostAJillSandwich · 01/04/2018 02:49

To the previous poster who said it could be worse, could be poo or vomit, in what universe is vomit even remotely as bad as piss?!?

I could handle vomit, its not full of bacteria like shit or piss. And no, piss is NOT sterile, before anyone comes back with that argument.

Sprinklesinmyelbow · 01/04/2018 02:57

“Yesterday 22:04 Armi

You clearly do, Sprinkles. Maybe you struggle with inference, but your point implies authentic individuals(a contentious and interesting notion in itself) regularly find their houses sopping with urine.”

you’re er, intense Easter Shock

1forAll74 · 01/04/2018 03:04

WELL,,its not much fun this peeing when drunk, but maybe you can just excuse it this time if its not a regular occurence.. I Had this happen years ago with being with an alkie partner, but much worse happened later on, so yours is just a blip thing I think.

TheWonderfulCat · 01/04/2018 04:45

Well this morning woke up and gave hubby some more water and told him what he did
Hes ashamed of himself and agreed he got carried away

Hopefully its a one off, I think it will be. He rarely drinks so I think he just got carried away

Heard a lot about inappropriate pissing in AA!
