Page 16 | To be pissed off my husband lost his wedding jacket?

He went on his Christmas do and not only did he decide it was on to walk home 2 miles in not the best weather (I still can't believe his friends would let him do that) but he lost our wedding jacket, that does make very, very pissed off/sad.

As @clymene said....these are 'plotholes' if you don't want your posting history questioned, then it's very easy to nc

But as I said, I have no idea what the OP has said in previous threads. Most people won’t. What is it you are struggling with about my comment?

I can completely see why people have questioned points in this thread, even without any prior knowledge of the OP. But can’t YOU see that asking ‘Why was your husband driving if he’s lost his licence?!’ when the OP has already said that happened years ago shows these posters haven’t even bothered to read? As you say, there are ‘plotholes’ - so why invent extra ones that don’t exist?

I understand your upset but is it really that bad. No one got hurt ,no lives in danger so maybe give him a month fill on how you feel and then leave it.

Sudoku88 · 05/12/2021 17:27

I know you’re really annoyed about the wedding jacket for sentimental reasons, but I’m the big scheme of things just be happy and grateful that he got home safely, in one piece. That’s far more important.

@Terribleluck

I'm downstairs that's how I'm dealing with it, possibly to go upstairs and MAYBE apologize. I think some posters are missing the point that we wear our wedding outfits every now and then for special occasions that mean something to us. I wouldn't have given a toss if it had been some other jacket, but that one has special memories and not just the wedding!

Sorry haven't read all posts as so many but just felt I needed to say the memories are in your head and not in the jacket. You still have them even though it's gone.

@Terribleluck “ I wouldn't have given a toss if it had been some other jacket, but that one has special memories and not just the wedding!”

But surely at some point neither of you are gonna fit in those outfits anymore one way or another.. or accidentally tear it when getting up and stuck to something or wear out by the often washes… at some point you’ll stop wearing your Ted Baker dress as well.. yes frustrating, sad… what’s done is done move on!!!

Rtruth · 05/12/2021 17:36

Let’s be honest, he drunkly lost his jacket. No biggie.

Wedding jacket…is it even a thing? It’s his anyway so calm down!

Shell4429 · 05/12/2021 17:41

I would have been really pissed off that he didn’t stick to the plan to get him home, because that was thoughtless. I wouldn’t be annoyed about the jacket, because I am famous for losing coats and jackets in my family It’s easily done and obviously not deliberate.

Mammma91 · 05/12/2021 17:41

OP I’d be livid too. My partner also had his work do last night, dropped and smashed his phone beyond repair, smashed his ecig and lost the group he was with and ended up wondering around for 4 hours looking for a taxi rank with a knackered phone.
So I’m with you on being pissed off. The jacket is sentimental I’d feel the same.

sirfredfredgeorge · 05/12/2021 17:47

[Keeping a slice of your wedding cake]
Isn't there a superstition that if you put some under your pillow you will dream of your future husband?

Surely the only people so keen on finding out who their future husband is when they've only just married the first one are serial murderers for the insurance money or something? So if your partner ever suggests keeping a slice, RUN!

winnieanddaisy · 05/12/2021 17:50

To me the idea that you would pick him up at midnight was yours , not a joint one . He's a grown man and if he hadn't phoned by one am for a lift , I would have gone to bed and left him to it .
As to the works night out , how was that special enough for the jacket to be worn? It wasn't a date night , a special birthday or anything.
Make him call into the pubs and bars that he and his mates can remember. He will probably find it .

cherish123 · 05/12/2021 17:57

I assume you mean the jacket he either wore to your wedding or wears to weddings when he attends.

Is it new?
I guess it's annoying but more so for him than you.

butterpuffed · 05/12/2021 17:57

He already has found it ~ yesterday. It's in the thread.

Middleagedspreadisreal · 05/12/2021 17:58

There are people living in war torn countries, and children being beaten and starved to death. Perspective.

SofiaMichelle · 05/12/2021 18:08

If I was your DH I'd be pissed off that you don't seem to know "anyway" doesn't have a fucking "s" on the end of it yet seemingly use it in most paragraphs.

So maybe you're both pissed off with each other...

linsey2581 · 05/12/2021 18:09

So what?? It’s just a coat. My husband lost his wedding ring a couple of years ago in Tenerife at Siam park on the water slides. Was I pissed at him? erm no we actually had a laugh about it and he got a bit of a ribbing from both sides of the family. 1st thing we did when we got home was buy a new ring. YABU. Get a grip and get over it.

LostForIdeas · 05/12/2021 18:11

@Terribleluck

He found it in the pub they went to after their group dinner.

Did he find the money too?

JudgeJ · 05/12/2021 18:12

@Terribleluck

He only does it at either work events or weddings... In reality he can't control his drinking in certain situations. The good news is that he's recovered the jacket (with keys and bonus!)

I guarentee you'll be telling this story and laughing about it for years to come.

LostForIdeas · 05/12/2021 18:15

Oh I had missed that one.

It’s a great news really! I hope you can laugh about it soon.

Dibbydoos · 05/12/2021 18:26

OP I understand you're upset.
Of course it has sentimental value, could he have legt it at the veue? Worth a call

If not its gone he didn't lose it deliberately so move on.

I personally donated my dressshoes etc. My DH was a bit more sentimental that I and kept his wedding suit. When he died, once I was strong enough, I gifted it. I have the pics, memories and 2 fab kids to keep me going.

IME we should all take one day at a time and live in the now assuming it's our last day. Helps sort the chaff from the wheat ref battles to fight...!

fakereview · 05/12/2021 18:26

Blimey OP - this upset over a jacket.

Both DH and I have lost our wedding rings, although DH did eventually find his again.

CambsAlways · 05/12/2021 18:28

Why are you annoyed with his friends, he’s a grown man with his own mind surely!

Jeannie88 · 05/12/2021 18:28

Sorry, really wouldn't bother me, much harder things to worry about. Yes a pain and a couple of miles walking home not a big deal at all, probably sobered him up!

EightWheelGirl · 05/12/2021 18:39

If he never loses anything then I’d give him a break. It’s odd that you care so much about the wedding jacket but don’t seem concerned about giving a hard time to the actual person you married.

Queenbee77 · 05/12/2021 18:41

We cant keep everything.If it is cos you feel sentimental then you have the photors.... Thats how I think.

MammaMacgill87 · 05/12/2021 18:42

No one else is capable of getting him drunk, he got himself drunk probably while relaxing and letting his hair down (which judging by all your other replies is rare and therefore to be enjoyed). It's a jacket if he thinks there's only two placed for it to be, chase up the two places, and perhaps climb down off your high horse, get appallingly drunk at the dinner party and even up the score hahaha
