To have thought this was a really shit day out?

Have been trying to quietly drop a friend- like the husband but the wife is an alcoholic so everything revolves round drink- I rarely drink due to my medication.

She (friend) was very keen that all 4 of us had a day out at a local Christmas market. I agreed reluctantly because it seemed better than having them at our house (they never know when to go home).

Just as we got off the train, she disappeared off to see someone else (v rude?). Husbands decided to head for a drink while we waited- she eventually appeared about 1 1/2 hrs later at lunch- meanwhile I went shopping by myself.

They all got pissed at lunchtime and didn't want to go to the market. I went by myself- it was heaving and full of overpriced tat.

I'm now on the train home by myself- aibu to have had a really rubbish time? No idea when 'D'H will appear and don't really care.

I might be B slightly U as I have really bad period pain and just want to be on my sofa.

Thank you for listening to my moan if you have got to the end of this!

You're not wrong. That was a shit day.
Order a takeaway, have a nice bath, lie on the sofa in front of trash telly. DH can look after himself.

I think any day that includes a visit to a xmas market is going to be pretty shit - they are way too overcrowded and full of grumpy people pushing and shoving.

My view might have been coloured by the fact that I was with two grumpy teenagers and that I was driving so couldn't partake in mulled gin/wine or Baileys hot chocolate and that the stall for hot pork with crackling rolls was miles long.

YANBU.

Sounds like crap. I'd second the takeaway & telly. And don't leave any for DH.

I'd be more pissed off at your husband actually. I'd expect more loyalty from him than the friends. Juts say no from now on- unless your husband also enjoys their company? Then you can tell him he can arrange to meet them elsewhere?

No way would my dh stay out if I were going home. Wtf is that about?

That does sound like a shit day OP. I agree with the others order yourself a nice takeaway and put something good on tv.

Thanks everyone 😀. Yes I am much more pissed off with my H than than friends, but am not surprised although am really disappointed. I can cope with them if he had my back but he has massively let me down.

I think I'm just going to go to bed might accidentally snib the front door
