Am I being unreasonable?

I'd like to get some outside opinions on something that happened recently. I'll only give the basic information.

My boyfriend and I were returning home from a friends party after they'd driven to a fast food place. My bf and my friends bf walked in and brought food but he didn't get any for me. As we were walking up to my apartment I said I was unhappy and he turned around and walked out without saying a word.

I drove to his apartment (we live separately) after 6 glasses of wine but I suffer from severe anxiety. I banged on the window and a neighbor of his came out and shouted through the window "if you don't let her in I'm calling the police".

Later I heard him through the window on the phone to the police and decided to drive home which is only a short journey. I text him "you don"t get to treat me like this and said we are over. Am I being reasonable?

YABunbelievablyU for drink driving, twice! Angry Over food? Ffs grow up and stop driving if you can't trust yourself not to put innocent lives at risk!!

hotcrossbunsandtea · 22/02/2018 18:32

Really Hmm

waterSpider · 22/02/2018 18:32

Driving after 6 glasses of wine is about as unreasonable, not to say illegal, as it gets.

AnneLovesGilbert · 22/02/2018 18:34

If this really happened why would you admit it?

AthenasOwl · 22/02/2018 18:35

Why didn't you tell him you wanted something or just go in and get yourself something?? You drove drunk to have a fight over food? Yes. You were unreasonable. Very much so.

HobnobBob · 22/02/2018 18:37

You drove drunk to have an argument with your bf. Yes you are being unreasonable and completely irresponsible.

MyBrilliantDisguise · 22/02/2018 18:37

Is this a reverse? Because you'd have to be such a twat to come on here and want us to back you in drink driving.

Thistlebelle · 22/02/2018 18:37

You drove drunk twice- yes you are unreasonable.

You caused a scene outside someone else’s home late at night - yes you are unreasonable.

Dallia · 22/02/2018 18:39

What Hmm

BertrandRussell · 22/02/2018 18:40

Reverse.

bobstersmum · 22/02/2018 18:43

Defo a reverse! The drink driver is an immature twat!

Olicity17 · 22/02/2018 18:43

Are you taking the piss?

What does anxiety have to do with anything?

Notonthestairs · 22/02/2018 18:53

You don't drink and drive. Ever. You will end up killing yourself or others.

Did you ask your boyfriend to get you food? It doesn't sound like you did. Stop being a tit and ask for what you want.

HundredMilesAnHour · 22/02/2018 18:56

I thought half term was over?

mummsyy · 22/02/2018 18:58

Obvs you are wrong for drink driving. Surprised you're old enough to have a license from your post.

lizzlebizzle33 · 22/02/2018 19:26

If thus us real then OP you are an idiot

HobnobBob · 22/02/2018 19:34

Is this the same boyfriend as your previous abusive partner?

windchimesabotage · 22/02/2018 19:40

Yes. Not to be annoyed that your boyfriend didnt get you any food which is a reasonable reaction, that was inconsiderate of him. It was also pretty immature of him to storm off and I would be angry about that.... but by angry I mean I wouldve expressed that verbally when I next saw him.
Driving drunk and turning up outside his house is a ridiculous overreaction not to mention completely irresponsible. Theres no justification on the earth for that behaviour.
If you are reacting this badly to each other I suggest you end this relationship not put countless lives in danger by driving pissed.

Thebluedog · 22/02/2018 19:42

I think you are far more unreasonable to drive after drinking and he’s well shot of you.

You could have fucking killed someone!

Redglitter · 22/02/2018 19:43

Oh well the journey home was only a short one Hmm

Shame he didn't report your drunk driving to the Police

Sounds like he's well shot of you

Fruitcocktail6 · 22/02/2018 19:49

What the hell

Sarahh2014 · 22/02/2018 19:55

You could have killed somebody

Gazelda · 22/02/2018 19:57

Do you think you were unreasonable? Are you ashamed of your behaviour? (you should be).
