Husbands nights out

9 replies

Last week my husband had a night out pre planned. He came home at 4am and basically couldn't function all day Sunday. I wasn't bothered by this as he had said it would be a late one. Tonight he went out but only to the local and told me he'd be home around 12ish or before. Again I was ok with this but he still isn't home yet although I know it's only 2:30? I'm not so much upset about the time but we had plans tomorrow to go for breakfast which probably sounds like it can be done anytime but I usually work weekends so we never get to for weekend breakies with our other kids. I'm 8 months pregnant and have been signed off sick and am having regular growth scans so I've been feeling a bit sorry for myself so was really looking forward to tomorrow. AIBU to be annoyed with him or should I just get over it.

I don't think you are BU. Have you heard from him at all?
The least he could do would be to tell you he's going to be late.

Still go out for breakfast, take him and let him suffer

So you get signed off work and he doesnt have to do weekend childcare and then oh so coincidentally goes on 2 weekend benders?

Strap yourself in, its going to be like this right up until you go back to work unless you go nuclear now.

I went nuclear last night when he walked in the door. First of all I couldn't understand if he was in the local which should stop serving hours before why it took him over 3 hours to get home. He claims they were still serving. I then had a go about how late it was and he was going to be in no fit state to get up early with a clear head like he'd promised. It was pointless tbh as he claimed he wasn't that drunk and I'm apparently the one with a problem with him going out.

You are eight months pregnant and signed off sick. It is perfectly fine to have a problem with him going out until the small hours and being too hungover to function. Also is he really in the local?

Carry on asthe nornal, treat him exactly as you would a cf neighbour who has had a loud party. So hoover on (you don't actually need to vacuum), dishwasher or washing machine on (even better both on), radio on loud so it can be heard from upstairs.

Do you have nursery furniture to be put together? Can you get a friend or family member round to band a few nails together. Don't make a nice quiet environment for him to sleep off his hang over. It's daytime so business as usual but then I'm a vindictive bitch so I'd make him suffer for his self inflicted hang over.

I do believe he was in the local (where we live is a bit backward and I can well imagine the pub having a lock in as such) I also happened to be standing at the weekend with our youngest who'd woken up and saw him walking up the road.

Time to go wake him up, allure - let's see that clear head :D

BAU - business as usual. Get up, everyone dressed, make sure the bedroom door is wide open, encourage some friendly pile on daddy games with the kids, make sure you're all stood in coats and boots waiting for him. If he can't muster up the decency to take his pregnant wife and small children for Sunday morning breakfast then he is a tosser
