Would you be worried?

I hope your husband is doing fine. Personally if my husband told me he would come home at a certain hour and then many hours later he is not home yet I would be worried if something happened to him. Now when he returns if he was simply late for no good reason I would be angry because I think he should have called me and told me he was doing fine but he was going to be late. I would ask him to not do it again and to always call to let me know when he is late. I hope your husband has returned by now and he is doing okay. Take care GuateMom.

my husband doesn't go out often, but when he does go somewhere, I know for a fact if he tells me 8pm it will actually be at least 9pm. I call him countless times on the cell phone. He says it embarrasses him. I tell him everything that everyone else has said, about being worried, but he thinks it's just control or jealousy. I think I'll show him this post so he'll see I am not the only woman in the world that worries. By the way, I hope he is home safe by now !!

i would tell him it is unacceptable behaviour and ask him to stop. kick up a terrible storm or he will continue to do it. it is not really fair on you or your child and this is what you need to get through to him. if he does it again then go out to a friends house and tell him you will be back at 7 , then dont come back til 1am. see how he lkes it. action speaks louder than words. men know how to blank the nagging. its an inbuilt male function.if this doesnt work then go to bed next time and try to sleep. worrying is vey hard on you especially when you have to tend to a child next day. good luck.

Worried or angry depends on how he is. My DH, I'd be a little worried, but only because we have cell phones and he'll usually call if he gets held up somewhere. But I also know that he'll stop for something really quickly and end up finding someone to talk to and won't realize that it's been hours. LOL! My DH works part time at a bar on the weekends and I don't wait up for him. I trust him, first off, and know that depending on what's going on, he might be home anywhere between 3 and 5:30 am. I don't quite understand why your son has to stay up all night, but you both should work on getting him to sleep so if one of you isn't there, he can still stay on schedule.

stll not back?

why dont u give him a call?

confront your husband about it. ask him what happened and let him explain. if you think that his reasons are justifiable, then no need to be get angry with him. women really do have their own intuition, just be on guard and rely on your intuition when you feel that something's amiss... good luck...

ya it is not good to make people wait for you,atleast you should inform about the reason by which u get late,so the person who is waiting for you get relaxed and didn't go for negative thoughts.

I had this problem last year when my partner had a film shoot. He called me on a break and said he'd be home no later than 11pm because shooting was going well. At 3am I was frantic. I'd heard nothing from him and his cell phone was switched off. I ended up calming myself down enough to call round the hospitals to see if anyone with his name had been brought in. There was a heart stopping moment when a nurse at one of them asked me if I was sure of his name lol. It was resolved when she asked for his age. It wasn't him. he strolled in a little before 5am and I didn't know whether to hug him or kick the crap out of him LOL. It turned out that shooting had gone a little astray and so they'd kept going because they were already behind schedule. He "didn't realize" that I'd be so worried. I do hope your husband made it home and that he's okay. It's always worrying when they give you an exact time and then don't make it home till hours later.

I read through and found out he is home. I am glad it is no fun worring like you did

Hey, I wouldn't worry too much, if I were you. Boys will be boys and men are nothing but grown up boys! When it is a music gig, chances are he bumped into some old friends and shared a few drinks together. That is what would have made him forget the time. I would have definitely remembered to call back home, bu t don't forget that the din is so loud at a music gig that it is hard to hear what a person next to you is saying to you, let alone be able to have a telephonic conversation. Looks like he is just having a good time. Don't come down too harshly on him when he saunters back home eventually. He will love you for it. Peace and god bless!

Is he back yet? I pray that nothing bad has happened...

It sounds like your husband does this quite often. The solution is you should talk to him so that he is aware what your concern and worry. And he should buy you a phone so that they can keep in touch 24/7. For me my husband is also a musician so music is his life. If I stop him doing that, he rather die. But if he goes to play, there will be kinds of reasons he will be home late. Every time when he goes out to play, I will find out whom will be with him so if there is something happen, I know whom to talk to...

I hope that your husband is alright and nothing happend to him. I hope that he isnt into anything thats harmful to him. But if he comes home without a good reason then Id be very mad. I hope all is well with you today. And hope you and your son got some well needed rest.

There is nothing that you will have to worry about here in this situation as long as you trust your husband. If i was in your situation i least that i would expect from him is atleast a call back inforing me that he might not be able to turn up on time as promised and that i can carry on with my work.This is pretty decent and fair enough for anyone to expect and the person will have to do atleast this.You cannot be pissed off with him without what exactly happened and the reason for the delay. If you do that then i would say that you just trying to find a reson to fight with him or to show that you are pissed off.Wait patently until he comes, sit down and talk to him and try to understand what's going on.Do not jump into conclusions or emotions over take you for silly reasons like this.This applies to any situation that you may face in life.

That is very inconsiderate of your husband. I would be really angry too. I hope nothing has happened to him. If he is ok he should have called you and let you know what was going on.

Of the two emotions you might experience, anger is the healthiest. Worry does no good, but anger might give you energy. At least you could get something done while you wait for him to arrive. Then you might not be as angry because you'll be even more tired! LOL It is important to talk to him about how you would prefer him to handle being later than he thought. Ask him to phone you again if he isn't going to make it by the time he first thought. That would be courteous. Your son is probably fussy more because you are distressed than because his dad isn't there. Maybe the two of you could take a warm bath or something that relaxes you both instead of stewing about something you can do anything about.

I would be worried if he's not back at that time he told you. If he has a history doing that,then i would be less worried. If he got a cellphone then better call him,or if you know his friends' cellphone who you know are with him,then try calling them just to be sure he's safe.
