If you're blocked by a mobile, if you withhold your number can you get through?

[Minorityreports]

Just that?

Well then why did he ask me to call??? And leave me blooming blocked lol.

Because the hospital called him. That would worry me even if it was my ex and I would feel pushed to contact and check they were OK.
Maybe he forgot he had you blocked but at the end of the day he called you because the hospital rang him not because he suddenly wanted to chat.
If you are fooling yourself that he called cos he cares then you need to give your head a wobble
Focus on you and getting well not your ex

Sounds like you’re feeling a bit low and vulnerable, OP.

When you’re recovered, is there any way you can build up your local network a bit? Through work or hobbies?

I Hate all these abbreviations! I hate DH and DSD and NOK. It takes me ages to work out what you mean. I wish people would just to take the time to write the words! can't you just phone the hospital ?

Just leave him to it OP.

He may be sick but if he blocked you then he has some nerve asking you to ring him when he needs help.

It's the op that's in hospital

It was a mistake OP, try just to leave it at that even though you are feeling vulnerable/lonely. He could have texted you again if he was worried. Sorry don't mean to be harsh but he may be glad you didn't call if he hasn't followed it up with another text. Try not to create a drama that ends up in you yo-yo -ing back to him. Unless of course that is what you are secretly hoping. Try to do some self-care and focus on getting well.

81Byerley The abbreviations on mumsnet are pretty well established; and NOK is a well known abbreviation, or can be easily googled. Maybe find a different forum if it bothers you that much?

He has got in touch.
