Just that really. We were out with friends, going back to theirs. Dh refused to back to theirs but I don't know why. The others left in a cab. I couldn't leave dh alone in the pub. I I said I'm going home. He said OK. Followed me out in a fit and angry, cos he felt obliged to follow me. He's walked home. I'm 2 miles away from homre and sitting in the cold shivering
He messaged me to ask if I got an uber home. I said no, he said good we've spent £x on uber tonight.

He's walked home and I'm sitting on the kerb, 2 miles away in the dark, cold.

2 miles is nothing. You could do that in half an hour and you wouldn't be cold if you were walking.

TempestTost · 16/11/2024 01:24

You told him to piss off and he did. He's probably tired of stupid games.

Two miles is not far, you can be there in half an hour if you start walking now. If you don't you have no one but yourself to blame.

I'm assuming the OP is in her cups.

No she’s on her kerb 🤭

HelpMeGetThrough · 16/11/2024 01:25

LTK!!!

Boopadoop90 · 16/11/2024 01:25

It's a long scary walk home

I'm now sleeping the night on the kurb
He can see my location my clearly doesn't care

I'm all for proving a point but this is stupid. Go home.

Do you have the Uber app on your phone?

We were supposed to get in a cab to friends house. He refused but don't know why. Friends left
He told me to go with them
But I wasn't going to leave him alone in pub at 11.45pm. Friends left. I then said I was going home. He got the arse and felt like he HAD to follow me
I said don't bother if you feel like that
I've Been sitting on the cold kurb for an hour
He has walked home and messaged to day he's home if I need him. (He's drunk and can't drive to get me )

I don’t understand any of this. I think it’s because I’m sober.

IfIHadAHeart · 16/11/2024 01:26

Call a taxi. Or a friend, or a relative. Or get up and walk - unless you’re house is at the top of Scafell Pike then 2 miles is a 40 minute walk and will warm you up. You’re an adult. Take some responsibility.

MrsTerryPratchett · 16/11/2024 01:27

If it makes no sense, it probably isn't true. Reporting for nonsense.

Balloonhearts · 16/11/2024 01:27

Then take an uber. On his credit card so that he gets woken up by the notification. Practical and spiteful. Two birds one stone. Now get up and go home!

Hualalai · 16/11/2024 01:27

I'm impressed at your Mumsnet messaging. You are even @'ing people correctly.

Now try ordering an Uber.

Anotherparkingthread · 16/11/2024 01:27

Lol op this is some juvenile shit.

Go home. You're in the cold because of you. You're alone because of you. You're in the scawy wawy dark because of you.

Take charge, stop looking for drama. You're not a kitten stuck up a tree. Get a cab or walk home. Deal with dp in the morning and re-evaluate your relationship with alcohol while you're at it.

Get. A. Fucking. Cab.

Or walk. It’s only 2 miles. This is the situation those of us on our own have to sort all the time.

You know you’re just being ridiculous now.

I think we’re going to need OP to post a pic of her new kerb as proof.

rightly or wrongly he did what you asked and he listen to what you said ?

Frith2013 · 16/11/2024 01:28

You'd think she would manage to spell kerb (or even curb) correctly after the 568954th attempt.

NotaCoolMum · 16/11/2024 01:28

You sound like a giant pain in the ass.

Stichintime · 16/11/2024 01:04

I don't really understand this. You are an adult, you don't need a man to escort you home.

Are you new around here? We can't go anywhere alone

Balloonhearts · 16/11/2024 01:28

Probably could have before the 568954th drink but you've no hope now.

bevelino · 16/11/2024 01:29

OP, get yourself home and quit the stupidity.

MrPickles0001 · 16/11/2024 01:29

based on previous threads, in this case the omg part is the dh did exactly as the op said to do

Gingernaut · 16/11/2024 01:30

The others left in a cab.

You had a chance to leave safely and didn't take it

I couldn't leave dh alone in the pub.

Does he have special needs? Is he not a big enough boy? Was it already hammered?

SallyForf · 16/11/2024 01:30

You have been so unreasonable. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Your prize is a) a cold walk home or, b) a chilly night not sleeping outside somewhere or, c) being attacked by a bloke.

Yay, you lil winner, you.

Attelina · 16/11/2024 01:30

Boopadoop90 · 16/11/2024 01:04

He was in a huff but don't know why. I said I'm going home, he v reluctantly followed me I said don't bother. He said he wanted to walk home alone. So I let him. I'm in the cold, shivering, a good 2 miles away

You have created unnecessary drama.
