He's p*ssed on the bedroom floor

NC for obvious reasons.
I don't know why I'm even sharing this. I think I need to vent because I'm too embarrassed to tell anyone in person.
It's DS's birthday tomorrow (well, today now). DP went to the pub last night, absolutely no problem with that but I asked him not to be too late home because we still have all the wrapping to do, balloons etc.
Children finally fell asleep quite late because they were excited. I got ready for bed and then waited for DP to return. I waited and waited and it got to 10.30 and I was feeling very pissed off and tired so I thought I'm going to have to do this myself or I don't know what time I'll get to bed. Pretty much done by the time he gets back absolutely stinking of alcohol. I'm annoyed so I put the pressies up and he helps me blow up a couple of balloons. I go to bed.
Hour or so later he wakes me up drunkenly getting out of bed in the dark. Then I hear a funny noise, I turn my lamp on and he then opens the door and goes out to the toilet. It takes me a minute to process what the noise was and I realise it was him having a wee behind the bedroom door. It's everywhere. Stinky beer wee. He staggers back in and starts putting his clothes on top of it to try and blot it up. I just get him in to bed and start the clear up. It's all over the cream carpet, splattered up things and all over one of my slippers - it's drenched. He goes to sleep and I clear up as best I can for tonight, I don't want to wake the children.
I'm raging. Hours later I'm just laying here fuming and it's just dawned on me he drove home.
It's just like he has zero respect for me. I started a new job this week, I'm pretty drained. We have family coming over for dinner for DSs birthday. I asked him to do the food shop and the cooking for this birthday tea as I've done them for both children and him for the past 7 years. He scoffed at me and said 'its a Mum job' then reluctantly agreed. Bus has he done a food shop? Nope! That will be for me to do tomorrow - which I didn't want to do as it will be time away from my DS.
He just doesn't take on any of the mental load of anything. As I was wrapping the presents I thought to myself he has no idea what we've got (aside from the main present which he bought) . He hadn't had to think about them, buy them, hide them or even wrap them.
Has he done this on purpose because he knows I won't want to ruin the day tomorrow and 'be in a mood' as he says.
I'm so upset.

Thank you all. It probably didn't come across on my OP but I'm honestly so annoyed about the driving too, it's unbelievable. I've had a cry. I've set my alarm for 6 and I'm going to try and nip to Tesco's before my lovely birthday boy wakes up x

Can you get a tesco woosh delivery? Get the basics for a dinner so you don't have to go out? You will be exhausted, turning this over in your mind and unable to sleep will be so mentally draining. OP he sounds terrible 😔

He doesn't have any respect for human life at all if he can do this. Him getting to drink is more important then not killing someone. He could also have killed himself on the eve of your DS birthday. It is way beyond selfish and annoying. I hope manages to behave like an adult and doesn't spoil DS birthday. After that I'd be seriously reconsidering this relationship.

Aberentian · 23/11/2024 04:51

Stay with this guy and you run the risk that one day your lovely birthday boy will be just like him.
Do better by him OP.

I hope despite everything you manage to enjoy the day, I'm sure your son will because you sound like a great mum. It's not fair that the celebratory lovely bits are being taken from you by this passenger twat.

Dorisbonson · 23/11/2024 05:06

When his family come over, I would be absolutely clear with them about what he did. Ask his mother for tips on cleaning urine out of carpets and whether or not he did it when he was younger?

His behaviour is absolutely vile. You should not be with this man. It sounds like he cannot be relied on and he is a terrible example to your children. You do not want them to grow up thinking this behaviour is normal or okay.

Or her daughter thinking that is how men should behave

Shoxfordian · 23/11/2024 05:08

He has absolutely no respect for you or the family, think about whether this is really good enough for you

Pinkbonbon · 23/11/2024 05:10

What in the hell did I just read!

Firstly, he's clearly an alcoholic. The only men who do this or piss the bed, are alcoholics.

Secondly, it would be over for me the second I realised he drove drunk. Done. Game over. Do not pass go. Do not collect 300 quid. He's be out on his arse.

Thirdly, he treats you with contempt. He sees you as a maid and nanny.

Get rid. Tell him to leave first thing.
Or, take your child, go to your parents for the day and tell him to be gone when you get back.

Don't let him use the birthday as an excuse. Just tell your son he had to work or something.

Seriously, get rid of the scumball.

Nat6999 · 23/11/2024 05:11

If it's your house, I would kick him out, peeing on the carpet & drink driving show you what kind of person he really is. The not helping & attitude stink.

MrsMorrisey · 23/11/2024 05:19

Sounds like a charming man. There must have been signs that he was a dickhead before tonight tho.
Not sure why you put up with such revolting behaviour

Ems1992 · 23/11/2024 05:30

What an absolute pig of a man I would be absolutely fuming.

IllBeHomeForChristmas · 23/11/2024 05:32

He’s a scumbag for the drink driving alone, never mind everything else on top.

Floflo2 · 23/11/2024 05:44

Selfish man who simply doesn't care about family stuff. I hate the smell of wee in carpets. Bicarbonate of soda and washing detergent is quite good. But make him do it! The fact he was willing to let his own child's birthday go potentially wrong for his own "fun", I have no words.

CrikeyMajikey · 23/11/2024 05:46

I’d let him do the food shop & the cooking and if there’s no tea, let him explain. Same goes for cleaning up the wee.

OneTealSloth · 23/11/2024 05:50

OP won’t leave him, she’s just here to vent. I know too many women with daily stories of mistreatment who complain and do nothing.

A drink driver too?!

What do you want us to say OP? He’s terrible, his behaviour is disgusting. Will you continue to subject yourself to it?

OrlandointheWilderness · 23/11/2024 06:01

Just appalling. Absolutely appalling. I'm so sorry op, I hope you can focus on the birthday, and your DS has a wonderful day. I'd be ending the relationship over this, I wouldn't be with someone who drunk then drove and pissing in your room is vile.

Lurkingandlearning · 23/11/2024 06:01

I hope you’re able to enjoy your son’s birthday and it goes well.

Then the next day, when his hangover has passed, you must have a calm conversation about his drink problem. It is a problem and if he tries to say it isn’t then it’s quite a big problem in that he is in denial which can take years to get past, if ever.

If he admits he has a problem and is ready and keen to take steps to deal with it, give him the chance to do so.

But you might need to prepare yourself for ending your as there is no plus side for children who have to live with an alcoholic.

flyinghen · 23/11/2024 06:02

He's utterly grim, the fact he went out and got this drunk on the eve of his kids birthday speaks volumes for who he is as a person and how little respect he has for both you and his kids. Then you add on pissing all over the bedroom, misogyny and drink driving.

I'm sorry OP, but your husband is truly a horrible man and I hope you leave him.

ArmourClatterSale · 23/11/2024 06:03

The drink driving would mean it would be well and truly over for me. He was that drunk that he couldn’t even find the toilet in his own home. How the hell did he get home from the pub in the car safely?! How many others had to take evasive action to avoid his car? Did he hit anything on the way home?

This would not be someone I would want around my children. Wake him up early to entertain the children (hopefully one of DS’s pressies is very noisy) while you get on with what you want to do. Make him clean up his own mess. If he doesn’t do a good enough job then get his mummy to sort it out when she comes round.

LozzaChops101 · 23/11/2024 06:08

OP you sound like a really brilliant mum, your kids are very lucky to have you. I hope you manage to enjoy the day despite the stress.

TheSilkWorm · 23/11/2024 06:14

Divorce the bastard.

romdowa · 23/11/2024 06:16

I'd be furious about the urinating in the bedroom, I wouldn't be happy either about his level of alchol consumption but the drink driving would be the end of it for me.

Flopsy145 · 23/11/2024 06:21

You sound like a really incredible lovely mum, doesn't sound like your DP brings much, if anything, beneficial to the table. Only you know if he's worth staying with and trying to change him ❤️

Don't forget shops don't open until 10am today. I hope your DS has a lovely birthday today, you are an amazing mother but honestly you do not deserve this.

Sorethroatagain2 · 23/11/2024 06:23

Agree with everyone above . You sound fantastic. Leave and I hope your son has a brilliant day. Keep us all posted if you need support x
