DSS is 22 years old. Always been very moody, grumpy, goes off in strops and won't tell anyone why, just ghosts people. He's very immature for his age and acts like a child, demanding attention all the time, expecting to be ferried around from a to b, expects everything to be bought for him or provided for him.
Anyway he used to come here every weekend and as he got older, it dwindled down and he'd maybe come once or twice a month. DH was gutted but kept in touch via Facebook.
The last time we saw him was Christmas. I think this is normal at his age personally but DH is upset that "access weekends" have grounded to a halt. Still, as I said he keeps in touch over Facebook.
However, DSS has suddenly decided to stop replying to DH. Maybe he's in a strop about something but we can't think why. The last time DSS replied to a message was February and DH has sent his 16 messages since then.
"How are you?"
"What you upto?"
"Hello? Anyone there?"
"Hi son, how's it going?"
Etc etc ... all of them ignored. It infuriates me to see DH making such an effort and just being blanked like he's a piece of shit not worth bothering with. DSS is getting these messages as it shows them as read so he's deliberately ignoring them.
I don't intend to say or do anything but AIBU to find it frustrating? And wish DH would stop pandering and just leave him to either say what the problem is or crack on?
If he was a child it would be different but this is a grown man treating his dad like crap for no apparent reason and imo DH is encouraging it by pandering!!
