Drunks Suck! (venting)

Sorry folks, but I need to vent, since I am all cried out. I just returned from a local bar, where I stopped in to see my husband, since I haven't seen him much today. I ordered a cranberry juice and started talking with my hubby. My former boss' husband was sitting next to the hubby on the other side and was clearly drunk, going into past military experiences and cadence, etc. when he got up and stood in front of me, looking me in the chest, wanting me to talk to him. I took his shoulders, moved him aside and said I'm talking to Mark, just a minute. He got pissed off, sat down, and said to another guy "I remember when she was fat and ugly! Now she walks around like'I'm so pretty'  I'm so skinny' "  I said to him that I just want to finish my conversation with Mark and I'll be right there. He blew a gasket, saying stuff much meaner than that. I got so mad I wanted to leave, but was convinced to stay. Mark told him repeatedly to shut up and he kept it up, wanting to pick a fight. I went to the bathroom and cried. His wife, my good friend, came and picked him up.  I am so angry, sad and beside myself right now!  I guess I just need to learn to walk away.  Anyway, just venting and feeling a bit better now.  Thanks!

Hey Lois, Long time since we chatted. WOW I am so sorry this happen to you! (((Hugs)))

Just remember when people are drunk they dont' know what they are saying and can be mean and obnoxius. If i spell that right. vent away we are here for you.

Just remember you came a long way and you are much healthier person now. And you are a great person! 

take care,

P.S. Saw Dr Chua on June 30th after 6 months waiting now waiting on the approval from the insurance company. And lost over 50 lbs now too ;) June I seem to plateau and gain now back to where I was in May. ugh! 

Thanks, Robin! It's great to hear from you! I don't think I come across as someone who thinks really highly of herself, because I am my own biggest critic! I feel better about myself and the things I accomplish, but they are purely personal and I think I have a little right to be happy for myself.  Anyway, his "truth serum" hurt. I'm just waiting in fear and apprehension for the next time I see him again.  Thanks for your hugs!

your welcome my friend. I am teaching my 14 yr son to walk away from things that make him frustrated and mad. Its a hard thing for him especially with the bipolar and other disorder he has. But he is learning now. Before he would just snap and go off big time.

Robin
