I have a night out ... come home DH isn't home.

[Eatingpizza]

I have just come back from an extremely rare night out with work. I got back at just gone 1 am (europe). Dd (10) is asleep by herself. Other than the dog, not another living thing in the house.

Obviously, it was agreed between me and dh that it was okay for me to have a night out. All the local pubs are closed. His phone isn't answering. No replies to my texts. Just a half finished glass of red wine, a book and his reading glasses on the kitchen table to show he was here.

What the fuck?!

An hour ahead

Probably fake post

There was a post last night about a man walking out of a hotel room in the middle of night with no explanation. Op never came back to the post, this post feels similar

What’s Hotel Husband? Link please

There are always threads like this on MN, it's most bizarre.

Ooh, ooh, my DH went missing for a while this evening! He got inexplicably excessively drunk (he doesn't normally, I suspect foul play which is a whole other thread), called and rambled at me incoherently 2 hrs after I was expecting him back, said something about walking home and seeing me in 20 mins.

After another 90 mins with no sign of him I started thinking of arrests for drunk and disorderly, falling under a vehicle, falling into a bush and choking, getting mugged, collapsing with alcohol poisoning, etc etc. Before going out to search for him, I quickly messaged the person he was last with, who confirmed he'd walked completely the wrong way and ended up back at his. He is currently snoring loudly on their sofa.

Sorry, no assistance to OP whatsoever...

He’s on the loo.

Get home

Child Alone

No sign of husband

I know what i will do, I will post on mumsnet to see if any of them know where he is 🙈

I wouldnt have thought the police will do anything, certainly not until someone has been gone for 24 hours

Theres no requirement to wait for 24 hours in the U.K.

There's no legal age where you can leave a child alone

The law doesn’t specify the age it’s ok to leave a child home alone but that doesn’t mean you can’t be arrested. Parents are arrested pretty regularly.

Is this out of character for him? Considering he left your DC home alone if he’s usually a responsible parent and he’s definitely not home (indoors or out) I would be considering the police as this seems very unusual.

Did hotel husband thread get deleted?

I echo PP as to why you would post this on Mumsnet. Priorities ...

Half finished Red wine, reading glasses and book on the kitchen table. Sounds quite....cluey .I think we should keep this in mind for the next chapter.

IF this is true, and I hope it isnt, call the police.

Never mind ... seems several OPs are writing mystery novels.

Hmm seems strange

@gaggiagirl l think he's Adrian Mole, gone to do something nihilistic and existentialist while spying on Pandora 😁

If you've found a length of lead piping in the library I'd give Prof Plumb a call.

Well i didn't ring the police! I believe it is 24 hours after a person is missing. I posted on mn because I literally didn't know what to do with myself while waiting for him to turn up.

I actually had in my head that he was having someone on the side while i was gone.

Turns out he had gone down the pub and had a lock in. Am furious. He should have answered or at least told me what he was doing.

Yes. It is true. Some of us do have shit husbands. He is not the least bit sorry or understanding why I am upset.

Maybe gone out for a quick walk for fresh air? Neighbour had a crisis? I’d be checking if his car is there? phone gone? Whatsapp last seen?

Bloody hell. I'm sorry, that's awful. Especially leaving a reminder year old alone. I'd be raging. I'm so sorry!!

Yes. It is true. Some of us do have shit husbands. He is not the least bit sorry or understanding why I am upset.

You are making the choice to stay with such a shitbag of a man. Why? What he has done is inexcusable.

He’s awful OP. Nothing about his behaviour is acceptable.
Talk to him tomorrow when he’s sober.

Jfc. He left your 10 year old asleep in bed at night alone to get pissed? That’s neglect. In NZ you can’t leave a child alone under 14. There’s a reason for that.

Well, in that case, you should assess your options. That's completely inexcusable.

Has he been lifted by intelligence services ?
