Am I overreacting?

Question

Am I overreacting that my boyfriend is drinking when he said that he won't drink at all while I'm pregnant? (8 weeks now) And for not letting me know that he's going out with friends? Am I overreacting right now cause I don't know if these are the hormones or just cause he broke another one of his promises...

Answer

The only thing I personally see wrong with this is that he made you a promise he didn’t plan on keeping, he should have never agreed to that. 
But I also don’t understand why he can’t drink just because you can’t? I know some women ask this of their partner but I think it’s a little controlling and selfish.

Answer

you’re not overreacting. he gave you his word and went back on it. that’s a bigger problem than the drinking itself, i think. it creates a lack of trust in the relationship and now it’ll be harder for you to take his promises seriously from here on until he earns the trust back

Answer

My husband is doing the same thing to me right now. We used to drink every weekend together, but obviously i can’t anymore since I’m preggers. He and i had the agreement that he could get a pack of beer every 2-3 weeks or so, but that’s it. He finishes his pack within a week and complains about not having beer. And he gets SOOOO upset when i tel him he can’t buy beer. We had an agreement and he’s breaking that agreement. I think it’s very valid to be upset with them.
