Hand hold: DH missing after "accident"

976 replies

Stickywhitelovepiss · 07/06/2019 19:20

I know it's not been long, but this is really out of character and not sure what to do next.

Rang my DH on his mobile to let him know what time I'd get in and he didn't answer - often happens so then call him on work line. His work said he'd called in on way back in after lunch saying he'd been in a car accident but was fine, and neither hide nor hair heard since. That's all I know - no indication of the severity of the accident or where he or my car (which he drives) have got to.

I've been trying him on his mobile countless times, called 101 to see if they've got him somewhere, also A&E - but no joy.

He's been off grid for about 5 hours now, when he'd normally have picked me up, got the Tesco and we'd be sitting starting our weekend. But not even a text to let me know he's not dead in a ditch, and I don't have that phone tracker either on this latest handset.

Starting to panic slightly - if anyone is around for a hand hold or some pointers as to how I can track him down that's would be much appreciated....

Oh no! What a nightmare for you

Starlight456 · 11/12/2019 10:54

Gosh op I remember your original thread.

Tjis has really dragged on .

I can’t imagine his you feel knowing he has lied all this time.

Has he explained why he lied?

TokyoSushi · 11/12/2019 10:56

Oh goodness, I've just come across, and read this whole thread. What an awful wait you've had.

What does DH say? Does he have a drink problem?

theemmadilemma · 11/12/2019 11:00

Oh op. I was hoping it really was just anxiety.

Has he been able to provide any honest answers?

Macandcheeseplease · 11/12/2019 11:04

Bloody hell.

What's he saying about it?

Do you think he was drinking in the day?

purplecorkheart · 11/12/2019 11:09

I am really sorry to hear that op.

Jumpi · 11/12/2019 11:10

He’s had all this time to tell you. Sorry OP. Chances are had he been honest from the start you’d both be recovering from this by now.

mynameisigglepiggle · 11/12/2019 11:16

Has he been charged?

Legomadx2 · 11/12/2019 11:18

So sorry to hear your news OP. Good luck in dealing with the fallout x

ChristmasMovie · 11/12/2019 11:23

Wow OP. Has it taken all this time to get the blood results or was something else going on?
I remember your OP at the time.Flowers

LuluBellaBlue · 11/12/2019 11:26

Oh no sorry to hear this - what on Earth has he said??

NorthEndGal · 11/12/2019 11:26

Aw, that sucks. Has he said why he lied?

KatnissMellark · 11/12/2019 11:29

Wow OP, I was not expecting that update. How are you? Have things been ok in the meantime? What is DHs explanation now?

Goldenchildsmum · 11/12/2019 11:45

Wow. So sorry Thanks

Bluebutterfly90 · 11/12/2019 11:46
Flowers Very sorry you've had to go through this, OP. And he surely would have known how the blood test was going to come back, so if he was really sorry he would have owned up to it!
TheBigFatMermaid · 11/12/2019 11:56

I'm willing to bet he'll claim it was from the night before!

marchingonwithmother · 11/12/2019 11:57

Sorry to hear that op. Thanks for updating, I remember this thread as I was shot down for saying he'd proved he was lying and that the police officers on the thread knew what they were talking about. Seems I'm not a "viper" after all.

fedup21 · 11/12/2019 12:00

He was charged back in June but didn’t tell you?

Span1elsRock · 11/12/2019 12:01

Oh OP, that must have been the last thing you wanted to hear.

I'm not sure why on earth he thought he could get away with not telling you the truth.

The action was bad enough but lying all this time about it? Wow.

Juanmorebeer · 11/12/2019 12:04

I'm really sorry OP. I didn't see your thread at the time in June but as I read through it wasn't adding up to me either (also a police officer)

Take care. Keep posting for support.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 11/12/2019 12:09

Sorry to hear this. He probably thought he had got away with it hence why the continued lie.
Help him find help with his drinking if you think he needs it, and take as long S you need to deal with the lying.

eenymeenyminyme · 11/12/2019 12:09

I'm so sorry, what a shock for you...

Wishing you all the strength you need to get through this Flowers

Babablackship · 11/12/2019 12:11

Oh no. You must be fuming. What an idiot for not coming clean. Handheld.

OrlandoInTheWilderness · 11/12/2019 12:30

Oh god OP. Has he come clean yet?!!

Stickywhitelovepiss · 11/12/2019 12:31

It’s genuinely taken all this time just to get the results from the police (have seen the letters), rather than him being charged 6 months ago and keeping that part under wraps. Not that it makes a great deal of difference either way.
