To not get on the plane ?

[BrightonCalling]

I have an awful hangover and also had a massive argument with dp last night. Feel like shit physically and mentally. Supposed to be going to see my parents for a week and getting flight this afternoon but have to get a tram, bus then train to the airport first.

Have seen i can get another flight tomorrow for 20 quid...

Should i go today or tomorrow? I feel guilty if i postpone but im not sure i can even walk straight

If you can afford to wait and would feel better I don't see the issue.

Will you loose the return flight if you don't take the outbound?

You know, I think I'd go today.
Have a shower, big glass of water, bacon buttie and crack on with your plans.

Sorry you had a shit evening last night

I feel guilty about missing a day just because of a hangover!

Yep big coffee shove some clothes on and go.
Your parents will be upset if you don’t arrive as planned
Sitting about tired and hungover isn’t going to improve things with your dp
You’ll feel better later in the day - just push on

What BalloonFlowers said. If you have a return flight, most probably you'll lose the return leg too.

Go today.

Have a nice hot breakfast, refreshing shower, do your face, get ready for the airport and go see them. It’s a new day so forget about yesterday. You got this! Why not pay for a taxi straight to the airport or to the train to save on changing transport so much?

Solpadeine (soluble) if you can, cool shower, nice loose comfy clothing, good breakfast.

Go and give yourself some space. No need to wait until tomorrow.

Go and make up with your dp first if you haven't already. It will help shake off that dark cloud.

Sympathy here. Also had a big row with DP last night and drowned my sorrows afterwards in the kind of G&T you only make for yourself in a strop (mostly gin, no ice and lemon, glugged very quickly)

Feel like shit and he's asleep in the spare room.

(Sorry, thread hijack, just glad it's not just me!)

Re: your flights, you'll be OK either way. Realistically you'll feel alright physically by the time you get to your folks' house.. though if it were me, I'd be tempted to delay a day to sort myself out emotionally and resolve things with DP. Just so you're not going with a miserable weight on your shoulders.

Big girl pants on- have a shower, some painkillers and a sensible breakfast. You’ll feel much better.

I would still go today- good luck.

Maccies breakfast at the airport will see you right 😊

@ItsNotJustMe
There's that too, i dont want to leave for a week with that hanging over ne, wont have time to make up.

Also worried about being sick on bus as its an hour and hqlf coach.

Thing is because of timing of transport i have to hang aroubd airport for 3 hours to wait for flight and worried wont manage it

Just go. Are you often the type of person who changes plans due to either alcohol or a crap relationship? Do you want to be?

You will lose the return flight so check how much the new one will be first before you decide.

@Candyflip oh, go away. There's always one person on every thread who smugly whips out 'are you always like this?' as a nasty little insinuation instead of having the generosity to presume that sometimes people make bad decisions for a variety of reasons because we aren't actually perfect.

OP - check that it won't affect your return flight and if that is ok, don't feel bad if you just postpone. You can tell your parents you're ill (no need to go into details if you don't want to!) and have a day to recover and make up with DP. If you have to go I'm sure you will make it (shower, diarolytes if you can stomach them, energy drink!) but it sounds like no harm would be done by taking an extra day.

Hope you feel better soon

I’d get up and get moving, put your big girl ants on. I know i’f Feel worse losing a day to a hangover than feeling rubbish on a bus. See how you get on taking the tram, if you’re that physically ill don’t get on the bus. I’d also look at how much you’re drinking, to get yourself this incapacitated isn’t big or clever whatever the excuse.

Sorry to hear you’ve had a bad night, fallen out with your DH and a hangover to boot. We’ve all been there and it sucks.

Depending on how much time you have to spare why don’t you get some pain meds down you, large glass of water, put kettle on and make coffee for two. Go see DH in spare room and see how he feels. Sometimes the biggest arguments are best overcome with the simplest of gestures. Then decide whether to travel today or tomorrow. Myself? I’d travel today and once you’ve arrived at your destination, had a big sleep you’ll be as fresh as a daisy to enjoy the rest of your stay. Good luck!

I'm sorry I'm going to sound like a complete arsehole but it's pathetic for a fully grown adult to postpone a visit to her parents because of a hangover. Just go! Make up with your dp first, and sleep on the journey.

You won’t lose the return flight, that’s nonsense. You just need to confirm it if it’s a traditional airline or nothing if it’s low cost airline.

Echoing @BrutusMcDogface, unless you're a teenager - it's all very whinny. You knew you were going today and it was your choice to drink too much and now you feel shit. Suck it up and get on with it.

When I have a hangover I can’t do a thing. Hence the reason I no longer drink!

Sorry you had a terrible evening. Try having a shower, take some painkillers. See how you feel in a bit.

Some people on here just love to kick people when they are down.

It’s wonderful others are so perfect and have never made a mistake.

You won’t lose the return flight, that’s nonsense.

It's really not nonsense - it's a pretty standard T&C if the flight is booked as a return fare. If you don't take the outbound leg, often the airline will automatically cancel the return leg. Therefore if the OP misses the flight today and gets another single to her parents, there's a high probability she won't be able to use the return leg.

Get a taxi to the station, and go. That may also give you time to talk to your DP.
