The only time I don't is if I work at 7 and need to eat before he gets home... very rare tho--he always tries to be here to eat with me! And he waits for me when I get home late. :)) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-410089 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 21:18:01 +0000 autumnlove 410089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try to wait unless he gets off past 9. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-410087 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 21:16:58 +0000 sera_87 410087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH works late one night a week &amp; finishes at 9. I don't wait for him because his lunch break is actually more like dinner. Other than that, unless he's SUPER late, I'll wait to eat with him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-409997 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 20:24:30 +0000 prettylizy 409997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If he doesn't get out of the office on time I'll usually sit down and eat with E so that by the time he gets home he she is clean and he can play with her before bed then eat his dinner. They don't get enough time together so I try and maximize the few hours that they have. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-409966 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:48:57 +0000 NerdBee 409966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How late is too late? I think 8:30 is probably the latest I will wait. </p> <p>I like having dinner with DH so I will tend to wait if he's late once in a while. But if was a regular thing, I would probably eat first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-409963 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:48:05 +0000 MsMini 409963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to wait for him, but now that Sawyer is eating, I feel like it is important for Sawyer to eat with at least one of us, so I eat dinner with Sawyer, and DH can eat leftovers when he gets home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-409961 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:44:29 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 409961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wait unless he is going to be really late. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-409959 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:42:17 +0000 Rubies 409959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I eat dinner by myself if he's coming home too late. And if he IS coming home late, he'll probably eat at the office anyway so there would be no point in waiting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-409933 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:13:14 +0000 Freckles 409933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He would most likely tell me to go ahead and eat. I would probably eat enough to take the hunger edge off, and then eat a small dinner when he comes home, </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-409928 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:07:32 +0000 Andrea 409928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always have dinner by myself if he is too late. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wait-for-your-dh-to-have-dinner-if-he-will-be-late#post-409919 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:43:59 +0000 NerdBee 409919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH usually gets home from work around 7:30pm. I will time dinner to be done cooking by 7:30. DH just texted me to tell me that he missed the commuter train and won't be home until 8:30pm. </p> <p>I'm starving so I just had a snack to tide me over until he gets home. Would you wait to have dinner with your DH or would you have dinner first by yourself? </p>
