I'm mean to DH
I think I'm mean to DH. He used to be a partier (many a post about this in my pregnancy days). He is an absolutely wonderful dad/husband. He has done the night shift with LO since he was about 4 or 5 weeks old. Even when he was up twice a night. He's heading to write a contract with a client at 5:00 and broke it to me at 3:00 today that he's going to the neighbor's to play beer pong at 9 tonight. I got mad. It will be after LO goes to bed at 7:30 and he'll be back to do his night shift with LO. But it does mean I'm spending the whole Friday night alone between his contract appointment at 5 pm and then his beer pong outing (he'll come home for dinner quickly in between). What would you have done?
::blushes because she had to admit her 31 year old husband still plays beer pong::

Re: I'm mean to DH
Umm if he hasn't really been out i wouldn't really care.
Last summer we were in a beer pong league!! i was 23 and J was 28. he proposed to me last july and i said when we stop playing beer pong LMAO little did i know a year later we would be parents!
My husband totally still plays beer pong (he calls it something else, but same game) and he's 31 too...
Anywho. I'd probably let him go. It's just once and he's been doing the night shift every night for over a month.
Haha-this is what I was thinking. I should let the poor guy go. It IS the last-minute that pisses me off. But with him it's all or nothing: he's almost always here, but every so often he gets a last minute invite. He's only been out once since LO was born and it was from 2-6 pm so I think I'll give him this one.
are we married to the same man... the part that bothers me most is that he assumes I don't want to do these things too and doesn't even give me the opportunity to get a sitter...
PS: Is it wrong to play beer pong with the baby in her sling? (J/K)
Woo Hoo! Beer Pong!
My H still goes out with friends, definitely not as much as he did in our pre-baby days, but he goes out.
It doesn't bother me at all. I've been out with my friends too. I think it's normal and healthy to maintain a social life.
I agree with this. I like one on one time with LO
I think I'd be sad that DH didn't invite me to come play beerpong. LOL. If it were planned in advance I'd get a babysitter and have a fun night out. If it's spur of the moment, I'd tell DH to skip beer pong or I'd make a deal with him. He gets to go play beer pong and I get a baby-free outing tomorrow afternoon. We usually do stuff like that. Keep it equal so there is no resentment.
