Wife moved out this weekend. Kids are with her for the next 3 weeks. Didn’t feel like cooking for myself so I went to Buffalo Wild Wings and now I’m at a pub drinking. Is this ok?
Yes, take time to grieve. Be careful with drinking and driving, that would only compound things.
As long as it doesn't become a daily thing
It doesn't hurt to spoil yourself now and then, under any circumstances. Take it easy. You will find your groove....whatever that may turn out to be.
Your life.... with or without her. But you mentioned healthy.... when drinking in a bar is healthy?
Ok? It's fucking mandatory. Cope how you want, don't hate yourself for it.
You sound unhappy.
Men hate to hear that.
Why? Do they hate to hear the truth?
And why solicit a response? I'm not going to be be part of a culture that sweeps issues under the carpet to be replaced by alcohol. That's worse.
@Ellatynemouth "the truth"? Your assessment on very limited information. Regardless, men hate to hear judgments that compartmentalize them as being weak or unhappy.
Do you know what - tough. This guy was asking for opinions. I'm not going to lie just to make him feel better.
And why was the OP asking if it was OK in the first place? People can't ask for opinions then criticise the answers they don't like.
It's his life.
Sounds like a tough time for you. Sorry. You probably feel the need to drown the sorrows, just don't drink and drive.
