So my partner went out to meet his fellow area managers .
They met at 5pm (for apparently a couple of drinks and a meal )
They have met in a city that’s a hour away.
He didn’t take his key because he said he wouldn’t be late.
Hes just text asking for the bus timetable ,I sent it over and he replied saying he’s getting the midnight bus.
So he’s not getting home till after 1am
Hes got no key so I’m gonna have to stay up
He has work at 7am in the morning as well
He asked if I was Annoyed,I just said well you will be tired tomorrow at work (I now work from home and off till Tuesday)
Aibu ? Just take your key but tbh I wouldn’t sleep anyway till I knew he was home.

If it was a man annoyed that his girl had gone out with work friends, and wasn’t coming home till late, he’d be called controlling. Just saying 👀

Yes, of course. Due to the layout of my house someone could come in quietly and steal my car keys without me knowing if I was just watching TV or in the shower.

Unfortunately, there have been chancers in our village trying doors, so not locking your front door is not a good idea. The gate into our garden is always locked so leaving the back door unlocked during the day is much less of an issue.

Locking doors is just common sense.

Fair enough. Our street doesn't really lead anywhere so we don't get any random passers by.

Hope your DH behaves more considerately in future OP. DH and I always have keys with us, as do DC on school days. It's hardly a massive inconvenience!
