Drinking and the wife?

Ok guys, with all the drinking threads, how many of you guys have problems with the wife/SO and your drinking?

I like to really tie one on during the weekend. However, my wife likes to keep track of how much I have consumed.

It is not like I am all busted up or anything but she would never know the difference between me having 3 or 6 beers except for the empty bottles.

How do you guys hide your buzz from your wives?

when i get home from the bar...the first thing i do is grab a beer from the fridge...then when she see's i have a beer at home, its kinda like an excuse to smell like beer. that way, she won't know i already had 5 or 6 at the bar...haha.

sometimes i act drunk when i'm sober too. That way she just thinks i'm an idiot as opposed to a drunkard....

if your have to hide things and feel guilty about something because of your significant other, theres a problem...

although on the other hand we all do something we know our g/f/wives etc wont like...

like me buying parts for my bike, or my paintball stuff....but then again, so do they and their incessant clothes and shoes shopping...

just last night she threw a comment how i cant afford to go paintballing all the time to which i replied "the day i ask to borrow money from you is the day you get to tell me how i can spend it"

Im lucky enough that mine drinks with me. the only issue we have is when we go to bars, is deciding who will be the desiganted driver. Then again, we havent really been out to a bar in like 9 - 10 months, we have preferred to stay at home and get sauced. I can get pretty retarded when i drink heavy, and thats her only gripe. Im a happy drunk, but i get on her nerves with that sometimes.

My Mrs drinks with me most of the time. I go out alot but she doesn't feel like going out quite as much as me. (Depending on who I go out with)
On friday I came home at 5am steaming drunk and she was waiting up to make sure I got in Ok.

She loves Bikes and hangs out in the workshop with me and my mates. We do a fair bit of partying in there too. My mates accept her as one of the boys.

I didn't always have it easy though. One of the previous Girls I lived with was always trying to keep me in the house and because I wasn't built for that kind of life I used to go out more.
She would always try and have a go about me drinking too much at weekends and everytime she did I would go on a 3 day bender just to annoy her. One time I just didn't go home.

ok, just to give you a unattached womans view here....Most wifes get upset when your out drinking in bars because they know what kind of nasty women are in them, and lets face it guys a stiff dick has no feelings. They dont want you bringing home some nasty disease and giving it to them or some white trash showing up saying she's prego with your kid. Besides no one wants to have their heart broken over a beer and a stupid desicion. On the other hand they also worry about you like crazy when they dont know where you are. All these crazy *** things go through our heads, like what if he's hurt and no one knows it ect. For the most part we just want to know that you are safe, when you'll be home, where you are or were in case you dont come home and that we can trust you. The more she cathes or suspects you of lying the more she'll bitch at you beacuse she feels like she doesnt mean enough to you for you to atleast be honset with her.

Hide my status of intoxication from my wife? Hah! What she knows is that slung arrows and metaphorical beat-downs accomplish exactly zero, so she never goes that route.

After fiscal, professional, social and marital responsibilities are correctly executed, then if a buzz is desired, then buzzed I become. 'Sides, if you can do the decoding then you know there aren't beer or beer bottles involved.

Over the course of thirty-seven years, we have learned to tolerate idiosyncratic behavior in one another. Often they get merged to great delight.

I'm a real task-oriented guy. She quit counting when I couldn't remember where I set the last one down. Fukit - back to the fridge and get another. Guzzle half of that one - back to work.

One such Sunday morning after a weekend of home improvement I wake up having my *** reamed for drinking a twelve pack yesterday. But what she was really pissed about is finding the 6 cans that were half full scattered about the property.

What's really important is that I probably shared a grilled steak with her the night before, had a beer with dinner, showered and promptly crashed.

I claim I am tone deaf from all the things that I did without ear protection. She says I have selective deafness. Fukit! At my age, I'll claim either!

As long as Gunner is put down to bed for the night and he doesnt wake up(teething) cause his teeth hurt, then she doesnt mind. As long as I try and stay quiet. Like mike996 I am a happy drunk and this also gets on Liz's nerves. I like to joke around and be a goof ball when im drunk. I can be obnoxious and that is what she doesnt like.
