Is this appropriate behavior from a married man?

Is this appropriate behavior from a married man?

I need some opinions on this subject(from both married men and women). Is it acceptable behavior for a married man to go out drinking with his work buddies and not return home until after 9am the next day (he also had our only vehicle which I needed to leave in by 7:30am to get to work that following morning)







Lprod
Definitely not. And you have to start establishing your boundaries and showing him that this is NOT acceptable behavior and you won't tolerate it.


Please, need some advice too:

definitely NOT cool!!! its ok to go out with friends but not if you don't know when they're going to be home and to jeopardize your job is very inconsiderate i'd freak if my husband did that

I'm not married. I have a girlfriend I live with. Once I did this, passed out DRUNK on my friends couch. We have our own cars, but she had a fit. She's a little jealous and insecure so that made it that much worse. Anyway, being so drunk I reasoned that it was better to sleep than get a DUI or call and hear her mouth. From now on if I have this situation again I'll call, wake her up and have her come get me.

well from a men's point of view to me i look like he want to be single or still act like it and that's not COOL for a marriedman ok you need to talk to him and tell him how you fell ok

You need to pull him aside and talk to him about his behavior forget about the fact that its a "guy thing" he was being inconsiderate and i'm sure if you did that it would be a problem..the first thing that i wonder about is if he had intentions of seeing some1 else..i don't want to plant things in your head but its a question. Just talk to him and if the problems continue and actually get worse you need to find your way out of that. Do what's best for you.


Me time
Obviously not. sounds pretty immature.

um, well it is not inherently bad for a married man to go out drinking and stay out all night. But in the context of YOUR marriage it sounds like it is not appropriate, he did not respect your need to get to work and you are his wife. You should talk with him and set expectations for married life.

I'm not married, but rest assured that is not normal behavior and I would wonder if he was out cheating. Seems he doesn't have much respect for you.


Aleksis
Maybe from a frat boy not a married man.

this certainly is NOT


cyrilla_2002
if it was planned and you knew about it before it happened...well, stuff happens, and sometimes people need space.

However, he should respect you enough to not leave you really worried all night, and to get you to where you need to go.


OLD MAN OF KNOWLEDGE
Coming from a human being this was totally wrong. Did he at least call you to tell you he was going to be late? He is showing you no respect as a person much less his loving wife.


Slymoon
you need to slap some sense into him!
No he shouldn't be doing that. To go drinking with his work buddies is fine but not till 9 the next morning.
Talk to him about it

NO! Absolutely not. My husband did this a few days ago - I even asked about it on here. I was hurt, upset, worried, and extremely angry.

He's your husband and it's your marriage, so it isn't my place to tell you what to do, BUT.......
Personally, I'd break his arm. The least he could have done was call.


Billy Shat
Absolutely not acceptable. Coming home the next day means he's definitely finding someone other than his buddies to go home with.

To me, it is not appropriate to have fun at the expense of your spouse not being able to get to work.

why don't you talk to him about it...

(when he's not drunk) lol


MeeMe
Not at all!

It is OK to go out drinking after work for a few hours and coming home the same day! With a phone call too!

But over night till 9am? Thats crazy. Plus you needing the car, he should have known, and been smarter!

Doesn't sound like a very good marriage.

HOLY CRAP...no that's far from acceptable. It's also inconsiderate.

You have every right to find out what's going on in your relationship. By any means necessary. You gotta protect yourself otherwise you're going to get hurt. Good luck.


Doubled2483
Im not a women but to me thats really irresponsible and not very nice way to treat you.


wolvrine24
No, it is not acceptable behavior.

If I were you I dump his loser a&&.

That's childish. Why doesn't he grow up and get alcohol out of his life?
