I need to leave for work at 1130am,dp will be looking after ds.
Well,dp is not here,he went out last night,stayed at friends and not back yet.
So,we all know what is going to happen dont we!!!!
Dp wont be back in time and I will miss important meeting with boss and client.Dp will stroll in the house at some point,I will scream,shout,swear and want a fag(but i wont have one) He will say sorry I wont do it again but he will!!!!

When will he ever remember?!

If he had a lecture at University at 1130 then i would be the Wicked Witch and so selfish!!!!!!!!! if i let him down.

I work for Social Services-this meeting is IMPORTANT but obviously not to him

Well,the update is his phone is switched off,i have sent him 2 very polite texts and still no sign of me getting to work.
Havent met neighbours-maybe i ought to for Emergency babysitting.
To be honest,its times like this(and they are often)that it would be easier to be alone,then childcare would be organised and i wouldnt miss meeting

What a wanker. Notasheep, dont smoke today Honestly it wont make him into a model man. Arsehole.

Why do men forget things like this?

Because they have no respect for the work of the person they are letting down. And by extension, for the person they're letting down. If they did, they'd remember.

littlemisspiggy · 29/03/2006 12:17

How rude!! Not only is he letting you down but your boss and your client. It's not as if he's stuck somewhere unavoidably doing something equally important it's just sheer disregard. In your shoes I would be steaming too.

madmarchhare · 29/03/2006 12:22

Drop DS off at his friends house.

SnowBoo · 29/03/2006 12:27

Lat time my dh done this he strolled back at 6am. I locked him out and made him sleep in the car. It was bloody freezing too. Only done once before and he got a bucket of ice cold water chucked out the bathroom window over him.

He hasn't done it since!!!!

He strolled in at midday and said what time is your meeting?!!!!!!!!!

We will have words this evening,need to wait till then as on Friday i made a HUGE mistake screaming in front of dd and ds it really freaked them out.

He is behaving like he is single,no children.no responsibility.

Spot on Caligula

Feel sorry for you Notasheep, not really sure of your circumstances so sorry if I am speaking out of term here but surely you should get rid of this man....he stays out all night and then can't even be bothered to get back for you, when he knows how important this is? Sorry but his clothes would be on the street.....I don't know your situation but as a woman to a woman I would say to you please don't let him make a fool of you anymore.

My heart goes out to you and your son having to live with such a selfish prick Angry

We have had words,he said he had a hangover and didnt realise the time.

I am feeling so upset now,feel lost and not sure where i am now in the scheme of things.

he didnt seem to make any big deal out of it....like he was more concerned about his hangover.
I have explained there are 4 people in this house not just one(HIM!)

I am a student too, and I would NEVER EVER go out on the lash and leave my DH at home with the kids, needing to go to work. FGS what would he say if it was the other way about??/ I need to be out of here at 4.30 on a Monday to go to Uni, my Dh is home at 4.20 without fail, and if he failed to be home and left me late, never mind failed to come home at all, i'd ask myself how much that man cared for me at all!

I think he needs to be reminded of his responsibilities and that he's not a 18/19yr ols wanker with a part time job and a dope addiction!
How will he ever cope when he graduates and gets a job if he has no sense of responsibility.
I feel sorry for you, he's a selfish git!
