Oh man, these women...

If she's young then she's just learning how to handle her drink. Learning your limits can take various forms, and this could be one of them.

But if she's older (late twenties and higher) and she's still acting like this, then it's more of an issue. If you're taking a substance that get's in the way of your relationships and causes you to act violently, yet you continue to do it, then it's a problem.

But I can guarantee that if the genders were reversed, and you threw things at her when you got drunk and acted like an idiot, you'd be in a lot more trouble. Even if she justified it by saying that it's an isolated event, or that it doesn't happen often, or it doesn't bother her, she'd still have friends and family telling her she should leave the relationship and report it to the cops.

Acting violently towards your partner, regardless of inebriation, is a lack of respect. No-one should tolerate that regardless of gender.

Oh guys chill... it's really no big deal here!

We rarely drink, and if we do, seldom more than 2-3 beers a week (we sometimes go to an english pub on fridays, where we started yesterday...), and if I told you how much more we had after that during the evening, you'd all be laughin... (it was REALLY not a lot more..)..

And there's really no major problem, she got one glass too much yesterday and overreacted after a period of stress for our situation.

Though I am impressed by all analyses and advice in this thread!

Have a great easter guys!

Cheers!

Yeah, drinking and unemployment don't mix too well. We all do it though. I used to date a chick that was an angry drunk. She used to try to start fights with chicks that I knew that would try to talk to me. Even chicks that I hadn't had sex with. Anyway, one night she got really drunk and was trying to get in a fight so I tied her to the bed with ties and tube socks, She still refers to that as the best sex she ever had.
