It Christmas Eve, jerk!  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 34/100. zukepr (11761) 5 years ago

OK this is a rant! Dont say that I didnt warn you.

Tonight is Christmas Eve and it should be time for the faimly to be together. Since my parents and siblings live so far away all I have is my husband and kids to spend the holidays with. Well about 4 o' clock my husband said he was going over to wish a merry Christmas to a friend of his. I didnt mind because the friend and his wife have always been good to me and the kids. I honestly thought he would be back in an hour or so.

That was nearly 6 hours ago and he is still not home. He has called a couple of times saying that he is on his way and yet is STILL not here. The last time he called he had the nerve to ask "are you mad at me?" DUH!! I am so peeved right now I cant even see straight. Our son can only call us on our cell phone and he has it with him. Our son called and I didnt get to talk to him. Hubby said our son will call back at 10 to talk to me because he has had a bad day and needs to talk to me but somehow I doubt my husband will be home before our son calls back.

I am more hurt than angry though. He would rather spend Christmas Eve at his friends house than at home with me and the kids. This may even ruin the whole holiday for me.

Why are men such jerks?

Well if I was your man I would have stayed with the family and called the friend to give him my best wishes.

How come a guy like me misses his family and that idiot dont want to be with his???

Merry X-Mas to you and kids!!!

Men are inferior, that is why they are jerks. I freaking hate the "waiting for dingus" game. Drives me nuts. Luckily hubby does not pull that crap very often becasue the consequences of pissing me of like that are not pleasant. But he used to, and it made me crazy.
You have my sympathy and you also have my approval if you want to rain hell upon him when he finally does come home. But try not to let it ruin your Christmas, you can just as easily beat his as$ on 12/26 as you can on 12/25. Whatever dumb thing he's doing is not worth ruining the holiday for yourslef and the younguns.


myLot reputation of 48/100. MSV1313 (2239)  5 years ago

PS, my moron has been playing with his friends in my garage all day except for the four hour ride he took to get another danged snow mobile. I did manage to get him to come in for a few minutes to help me, but mostly I've been alone with the screaming little monkeys for all my CHristmas eve too. THat's why I've been making silly posts all day & night LOL!


myLot reputation of 33/100. MaxPower1971 (661)  5 years ago

inferior???

Easy now girl lolllllll


myLot reputation of 48/100. MSV1313 (2239)  5 years ago

YOU are "the exception that proves the rule".
Most men are inferior. Is that better?
Most men do not have the ability to think about how their own actions impact on the feelings of their loved one, most men lack empathy. It just never occurs to them that whatever stupid thing they have done may upset their woman.


myLot reputation of 96/100. moonbutters (990)  5 years ago

Yes , Thank goodness not all men are jerks. But I do think it's true that most are.

I agree with MSV that for the sake of your children perhaps these issues can wait for a day or so. They will remember that forever.

Then yes, I for one would be highly pissed.

I didnt have to mess with it last night because he came home drunker than Ol c00ter brown and passed out

I was wondering if drinking was involved. I hope he got one horrible hangover, and whimpered for sympathy. I often think that when people keep calling saying "I am on my way" and "are you mad" that you need to automatically assume that there is some drinking going on somewhere, or something else that should not be happening. Unless of course he is the type to go out for a quick surprise gift shop.

My ex- was just like that. My current is wonderful, he bends over backwards to do things right. Thankfully my son learned from current and not his father.

Unfortunately, some girls are jerks too...and he gets treated by them like they were his father. He has dumped a few girls for that reason you described above.

Smart lad, to dump them. Merry Christmas. Hope yours was good.

I'm so sorry you're having issues.. Hell is everyone having a crappy Christmas eve or what? At least you have the kids to spend it with though.. so enjoy the time with them. You're hubby is a tard.. I wouldn't suggest dealing with him tonight cause ya might kill him. Men can be dipshyts sometimes.. it sucks I know.

If it makes ya feel any better I'm spending Christmas eve alone. Its been me the tv, some baleys and a plate of french fries. Oh yea.. great holiday its turning out to be.

Thanks hun... my Christmas was pretty ok. Didn't go how I planned but it was still nice. We actually had a white Christmas so I guess that was a good thing. He really wanted to have snow for Christmas so I'm glad he got his Christmas wish. I'm still hoping mine comes true.

Awww, sweetie I am sorry to hear this. I know how men can be this time of the year. My first husband was never at home for christmas and if he was he was always drunk. It is sad that he has little thought for you as to your son calling and you was not able to talk with him. I would be ready to rip his head off when he came in the door. I hope that you and your kids have a great christmas. you should make you husband feel really bad and just ingore him tomarrow. Big Hugs to you and your kids. Love ya!

Hello zu

I'm sorry to hear you're having such a rough Christmas Eve and that you are so hurt. I don't know why men can be such jerks, but I will say it's not exclusive to men.

I hope it that your holiday turns better. All people are different and sometimes they can be exasperating and hurtful without even knowing that they are doing it. The mind is powerful and it is possible, if we are willing to let go of the past, whether it be a few years ago or a few hours ago.. :-) Derek

Sorry to hear that and you have every right to be a peeved. If his lateness is caused by "having a few too many". You could hope that he will have a hangover and so you can encourage the kids to play loudly and turn the Christmas music up very loud and hide the Aspirins! LOL.

Thanksfor BR. BTW did you carry though with my suggestion??? LOL


myLot reputation of 34/100. zukepr (11761)  5 years ago

LOL No I didnt
My stepson talked me down

That is if he is brave enough to do it a next time. LOL
