That's about the worst drunk story I've ever heard!

Little off the subject...but There was two worst cases of drunk driver..few years back. On e woman hit a man, he was stuck in her windshield, found him dead next day in her garage.

The 2nd a guy and his buddy was out drinking, guess both were so drunk , passager head out the window. Driver drove home went in the house, a man and his son walking found the headless passager still in the car.

Drinking and driving, always bad news...........

I wish more guys would try to be like this, (driving out to pick up girlfriend). I'm not that old, but I don't think chivalry should ever die. Some may disagree, to each his/her own. I'm facing a situation like this myself with my husband. He wants to go to a party with a bunch of his old work buddies. I went once, and not only did I not know anyone, they were all a bunch of snooties and drunk women that hang on men that don't have sig. others with them. There is a few there that know I don't care for them (previous issue at company Christmas party, another story). I told him I had no desire to go that party again (its an annual thing). Anyway, the party is coming up on Saturday, and he has told me he is going with his friend. I guess I'm a little irritated because for once, I would love for my husband to say "you know, my wife isn't going and I would rather be with my wife and family than a bunch of people I hardly ever associate with". Now, I understand that he never sees these people, but there is only a few that he likes there, and when I went with him, we barely even talked to them. In my defense, my husband works alot and is always doing stuff on the weekend, sometimes with all of us and extended family, (which means we really don't hang out together), sometimes not with us, like for work or for the neighbors. By the time he gets home from work, it is only a matter of a few hours before we go to bed. I can't remember the last weekend night that we just "hung out" at home with no plans. Sorry to vent. I'll stop hi-jacking now.

Needless to say, I feel for you op. The right thing to say is, "he did invite you first, and should be allowed to go out and have a good time"(provided he did not take another girl). But honestly, I would be irritated, because he would want to go whether I was there or not. It would make me feel like I wasn't that special. Not to mention, he wasn't worried about my safety on the roads. I would of liked him to pick me up. That might sound a little princess'ish to some, but its the truth, for me.

gotta love the old school men!

personally, I don't love live concerts like my hubby does, so no, I wouldn't mind.

now if it was an event I really wanted to go to... I'd be disapointed, but only because I didn't get to go, not because he went.

on the other hand, if he found some OTHER girl to go with him because I was stuck due to weather... well then I might be mad!

unless, of course, it was one of our mutual friends. he's done that... he got free tickets and I had to work. took one of our best friends, a woman. that was fine too.

Guess time have really changed..........what happen to the Guy picking his girl up for any date. Heck I still open the car /truck door for my dates. Guess i must really be old school.....only dates or GF I don't pick up ,are those were I'm invited over for home cooked dinner.(cornbread

x2 Maybe deerman could offer classes in school on how to treat a lady. Start the young boys off right! lol!
I think I was born in the wrong era.

Why should someone be treated different because of gender? I will hold doors for people when we go to stores and offer rides but never because of their gender.

Your right, I should of said for girls and boys. I'm the same way. I will hold the door for man or woman as well. It's more of being considerate and thoughtful, more than anything else. I do agree, it should go both ways.
