DS and DH buffoonery

AIBU to feel really irritated by this?

Just went round to friends to play board games. DS 10 and DH were poking each other and play fighting almost constantly. Being really noisy. Having to be reminded when it was their turn. Not really following what was going on. DD 7 and DS 13 were brilliant. Hosts two kids were too.

I asked them to stop politely twice. I gave DH a look twice. I also then started to attempt to make jokes about it which wasn’t right but I was out of options. I felt really embarrassed and it ruined the night for me. I also think that DH was setting a bad example for DS.

AIBU to think that it’s rude? How would you feel as the host? They are really lovely and accepting people but I imagine even they were tested. But it might be just I have a low tolerance for that kind of behaviour.

Well. Interesting question. I’m less tolerant at the moment so I see lots of his behaviour as irritating so hence me posting here to get a reality check. I have never seen him do this but he’s not great at monitoring himself in social situations. I often find him a bit embarrassing but never to this degree.

Sorry op but you're beginning to reveal another side to Dh that he sounds annoyingly immature in social situations and your patience is understandably finally wearing thin. Go out without him in future?
