Sometimes I absolutely hate being an army wife Dh has been on exercise all week. Comes home yesterday, had a do to go to (which I got out of) promised would get away earlier. Had a day at the seaside planned today.
Bloody got home at 0530 this morning, day out plans went out the window, just about to eat the goodies I made for our picnic. He's been like the walking dead today, so I took dd into town on my own again. Now not speaking, I'm so effing angry I could rip his head off
I'm now home with dd he is asleep on the sofa, so much for missing us all week. GGGGGRRRRHHHHH

DD is now in bed, still not speaking to him, apparently I am unreasonable

Not a forces wife but thought I would extend my sympathies!

What a bugger.
I would be absolutely furious.

Does he do this a lot?

Thanks for replying - was starting to feel abit of a billy no mates -
To be honest no he doesnt, but the do's always go on til the early hours 0100 - 0200 is an early one - but its really pissed me off as I'm a SAHM down here away from my family and friends and I really look forward to weekends - He promised he's be home early - anyway he knows he's in the doghouse have had my tea cooked for me tonight, he's washed up and just brought be 10th cup of coffee without being asked - He has promised to take DD swimming in the morning - so he is trying - still angry though

hugs hun.... im an army wife too, but luckily my DH doesnt go on these "do's" - i refuse to let him LOL

Im a SAHM with 2 tiny tots - the last thing i want is him coming home just as the little ones are getting up!

Well done for staying mad- milk it for all its worth!

Thanks j&r, this was one one those does you HAVE to go to - 3 line whip or something there called if you don't go - you have to send a letter to the RSM stating why not!

that's terrible, when DH is like that I tell him to stay up at camp, but now we have joey wobetide him if he does that. i'm aftraid i'd have been the opposite, he comes in then drunk as i'm up with the boy - tough shit, live with it i've had the lad all week now it's his turn indeed asleep on the sofa bloody cheek. i'd have been makinbg a right racket and telling him to deal wiht it/get over it

you are most definatly not unreasonable. he's deffo in the wrong, i'm surte it didn't have to go on till 5.30am.

I know, things are better now. Had a bit of a chat, he reckons there was no transport home arranged (usually they put on minibuses) Had to wait for a taxi - 3 of them it cost £30 !! He says it took 3 hours - not sure I believe him, but hate the atmosphere so I caved in a bit - he has said it wont happen again - we'll have to wait and see.

Yay Tiswas!
I think you've done really well with the whole guilt thing, without needing to go mental at him!
Waiting three hours for a taxi could be bull, but sounds like he feels pretty bad about it.
As you say..... wait and see if he does it again.
