Hormones have turned me into such a worrier! Especially where my OH is concerned (as some of you probably know lol) On monday my OH has his last exam and so he's going out into town drinking with his friends and then staying over at theirs. I have absolutely no problem with this as he very much deserves to go out and have a good time with his friends after working so hard but I know I'm going to be up all night worrying about him.

It sounds really stupid because he's 21 and can look after himself but Liverpool can get quite rowdy at night. Not long ago a friend of mine was out with his friends and was quite sober and a gang of lads starting arguing with them about a taxi and they ended up kicking him to the floor and laying into him, his lip pretty much burst open and he ended up in hospital. Also a Uni student was murdered not far from the main clubs on his way back for a night out.

My OH isn't the cleverest person when drunk and thinks he can handle things he actually can't and if his friends are also drunk there won't be anyone there to keep an eye on him. And since he isn't coming home I'm going to worry even more.

I stupidly told him I'd be worrying and he told me that there was nothing to worry about. But if he went out and I didn't worry about him I feel like it would make me a bad person lol

Am I being an idiot? Thanks for reading this if you did

Awww, your worrying is perfectly normal! I am sure he will be fine, but these stupid horemones turn is into worriers!

I know exactly what you mean i only live in chester so have many nights out in liverpool. About a month ago my OH and all his mates went out and i got a phone call from my OH to say one of his mates was in hospital. He got jumped while walking out of Con Sq and is so badly swollen he is now deaf and they dont know if he'll ever get his hearing back.
Shame that Chester is just the same and everywhere around here lol.

Anyway i think you have a right to worry. I know my OH can handle himself as he reminds me. But not when your facing another 10lads?!?! I point out. XX

I've been told chesters worse =/ it's just the stories you hear you always think it'll happen to someone else but one day that someone could be someone you know.

Chester is bad, but it all depends what your used to. All my mates have got there head's on if you get me, so i dont mind if im out with anyone i know. Otherwise i wouldnt walk the streets at night on me own LOL But its stupid because the house prices are so expensive so you would expect it to be abit better. Its all the kids around here that are just to big for there boots. But i know what you mean you hear/see things happeding and the next time it could be your OH xx

Yeah, I'm so paranoid. Even when he's an hour or so late home I panic now! I agree though, it's all the people who think they own the streets that worry me most because they couldn't care less who they start a fight with or whatever. And I've never been to chester on a night out so I wouldn't know what it's like x

I would be worried, as well. And no, you are not being paranoid.

I always pick up my OH from the train station after work because I do not want him doing the 15 minute walk home. We live in a chav infested area and he has long hair. We've had problems in the past here due to our gothic look and I worry he will get attacked.

bex its normal for you to worry about your OH goin out to town, liverpool of a night time is a rough place (9 times out of ten like) but hes a big boy an can look after himself, don't get stressed out thinkin about it. i know its hard but you need to stay positive for Grace. just ask him if he will ring you when he gets up in the mornin or summit to put your mind at rest. get a few of the girls round an have a laugh with them so they will take your mind of the worry an you will have a good night too xx
