How come I fall for it every time?

    My girlfriend comes home sick at the weekend. She'll text me Friday evening saying she'll be home late. But then she won't come home until the morning. I have sympathy for her, give her panadol and 7up like she asks. But then I find out she's actually hung over, and not sick. And there I am running around for her like a fool.

    I think she knows that she won't be home the time she says, and that it's a trick to make sure I'm up late thinking about. I'm going to say that to her. But she insists that she'll not hung over and guilts me for calling her a liar. But later when her friend was leaving, I over heard her say "take it easy on the drink next time".

    She probably told her mate about your argument and the friend made a joke about it?

    The request for a hot chicken fillet roll and bag of monster munch should have been a dead giveaway OP

    It's more than likely that the friend is only messing. Drink is probably a codename for riding.

    Sure if you knew she had been out the night before should it not have been obvious she was hungover?

    You're missing the fact that the OP never grasps the obvious in social interactions.

    So what if she was hungover? Is it a problem for you if she goes for a drink without you?

    It's the deceit that's the problem. Sounds like he should call it a day. Not a good foundation for a relationship- lies and manipulation I mean. I get the impression he needs her more than she needs him.

    It could also be that he makes a big deal if she has had a few drinks with her friends without him and so she feels the need to conceal it.

    If you keep responding in the way you respond then she will keep acting in the way she's acting. Maybe she needs to come home and find that you are not there some time.

    She comes home 10 hours late, is dying with a hangover the following day, and it's only a few drinks she's had?

    I'd say what happened was she wasn't going to head out, and planned on staying in and have a cuppa Horlicks and do some crochet, Disney crochet pattern more than likely.

    Anyhow, her friend from New York text her and she wasn't interested in going out.
    Because Horlicks and crochet is way more fun.
    Anyhow, her friend kept putting pressure on her heading out, so eventually she capitulated.

    Anyhow as the night wore on she got tipsy, meanwhile in her conscious state she was thinking she would have preferred the Horlicks and crochet.

    The demon booze that her friend pressured her into drinking, made her very disoriented.
    They had a great night out.
    She then went home and went to bed at her friend's house.

    She didn't go back to any party or flirt with other guys, because women never flirt or have any inuendo or flirty intriguing conversations with guy's other than their partners.

    Only men are not to be trusted while out, women are always honest, loyal and trustworthy, dedicated to their men.

    Men are the opposite, unloyal, flirting, and are the fault of every relationship breaking down.

    OP you are in an abusive and unhealthy relationship. She has no respect for you and you don't have enough self respect. You need therapy and not advice from friends, family or the internet.

    Or got her back recently. What happened was a neighbour was due to call over and visit when my gf was up in bed. This neighbour probably knows my gf better than me.

    I was going to wake her, but then I said I wouldn't bother. I made the tea and the neighbour and I chatted for about an hour. Before the neighbour left she shouted up "are you asleep up there?"! She didn't come down until she'd heard that the chatting had stopped. She gave out to me for not telling her and told me that she was too embarrassed to come down as it would look like she was sleeping.

    It was no harm for her to realise that I could make the tea myself!! Otherwise she'd be very quick to make the tea to soft of make me look incompetent.
