DH finished a bottle of Prosecco last night

[Anonymous]

He brought home some to celebrate my birthday. I had half a glass. I told him to finish up mine if he wanted and went to bed.

I found the bottle of Prosecco empty and in the trash.



He often drinks 2-3 glasses of wine a night. Isn’t this a lot?

I'm not alarmed.

Sounds like he was expecting to spend the night with you, but you went to bed, so he was bored. . . ?

For a man 2-3 isn't. I know people that have poor health because they won't stop drinking soda, and eating chips or other junk food. Or refuse to lose weight. I drink at least 2 glasses of wine a night, my husband doesn't. However, he's on 3 prescriptions. My doctor recently told me to keep doing what I'm doing based on my labs etc.

Now if he downs a bottle every night it's time to curb it.

Prosecco is champagne-y. It can't be re-corked. He probably just emptied it in the drain.

I do that too. I'm 68 now and recent blood work indicated no issue with liver function.
P.S. Proseco? ick.

Meh. It's a Thursday and was your birthday. And he may have poured out the rest because he thought the bubbles wouldn't keep

My thoughts, too. Sounds like he did something nice for you and you just went to bed, telling him to finish your glass

Sounds like you were kind of mean to him and scuttled his plans for the evening.

Man here and I've done this too with good champagne. It won't keep.

Why didn't you ask him to join you in bed instead of just going to sleep?

[Anonymous]

He could have just emptied the bottle into the sink, OP.

You’re making assumptions here and grasping at straws, why?

[Anonymous]

I wouldn't assume he drank the whole bottle. Prosecco doesn't keep, so he might have just poured it down the drain.

You don't sound very fun, OP. What's up?

[Anonymous]

So he brings home some bubbly on your birthday and you decide to head to bed alone. I'd finish the damn bottle myself.

FYI - if you keep opened champagne in the refrigerator uncorked it actually stays bubbly. It's crazy. A few years ago some professors at Stanford, as a joke, "researched" this and it made the news. I've tried it many times and it works.

Prosecco is lower in alcohol than champagne or beer. That's why it's often served at brunch. It wouldn't be a big deal if he drank the rest of the bottle.

I agree with others that you don't sound very fun, or appreciative of your spouse.

Hope you enjoyed your birthday.
