I think my husband has blocked me?!

He’s not been responding to WhatsApp messages today but has definitely been reading them. I messaged him again about 30 mins ago and it’s staying on one grey tick and his profile pic has disappeared.

He could be on the train so it could be that he has no signal but that doesn’t explain why his profile pic has gone.

So sorry op. I hope you manage to get some sleep

I can't believe what shits people can be

ImustLearn2Cook · 03/03/2023 23:32

He’s treating you badly. He’s treating his kids badly. And what would happen in an emergency? Neither you nor your kids would be able to reach him. You can’t rely on him to be there for you or the kids. He’s a selfish prick. Sorry @MyBloodyBrother 💐

He's got another woman or family by the sounds of it!

billy1966 · 03/03/2023 23:37

You poor woman.

A decade of this?

What a waste of a precious life.

This ^!

What an absolute selfish bastard!! If he did come home, he'd be coming home to all his shite in binbags on the drive!!

You just need to get rid - no way on earth should you have to put up with this crap! xx

Pixiedust1234 · 03/03/2023 23:41

I'm so sorry op, your head must be spinning.

Lock and bolt the door and go to bed. Dont think about anything until the morning but if I was you I would be starting to get all the paperwork ready.

Yes I was thinking another family as well. Like what is he's with another women right now who's having his baby and that's why he can't answer? This is just so so shady. I feel awful for OP. Years of her life wasted like this

Caplin · 03/03/2023 23:45

Your initial message makes you look like you were hounding him, your follow up makes him look super shifty

Going by the second reply, I would be having some firm words about WTF that was, and telling him if he mucks about like that again he may not be welcome home. He is either pissed, lazy or something worse.

Gossipxox · 03/03/2023 23:46

You said your DC messages him can you check WhatsApp on there ?

But definitely lock the door and get yourself to bed and I would pack his stuff to, you deserve better.

Sugaspunsista · 03/03/2023 23:50

The pic doesn't disappear.
I have tested it several times with friends.

Caplin · 03/03/2023 23:50

Actually, ignore what I said before, he is a double lifer, get out!

MoreSleepPleasee · 03/03/2023 23:52

Sorry op but he's not coming home.

Stressedafff · 03/03/2023 23:57

If this is out of character and going off your previous thread could he be burnt out from work and needs time alone?

AdoraBell · 04/03/2023 00:06

Hope you can sleep, take the DC out tomorrow to distract them. Also sort paperwork.

LikeTearsInRain · 04/03/2023 00:15

Could he be having an affair OP? And blocking you so messages don’t disturb his trysts?

Jas5mum · 04/03/2023 00:17

What a stupid dick
Could you turn up at his work??
Unless he's lost him phone there's no valid reason for treating you like shit!

momtoboys · 04/03/2023 00:54

I’m sorry you are going through this.

LorW · 04/03/2023 00:55

He’s having an affair OP. Absolute textbook right there. I’m so sorry for you and your children.

onlylarkin · 04/03/2023 00:58

Eek, read all your updates. Good for you on locking him out. I also recommend you start digging to see what else he is doing when he is working away and plan a divorce.

Greensleevevssnotnose · 03/03/2023 21:08

Why are you hounding him. I last messaged my partner 18 months ago before yesterday

Your relationship sounds truly pathetic.

LikeAStar1994 · 04/03/2023 01:05

We're all thinking of you, OP. That is such a cold, heartless thing to do.

Whatever he is doing, treating you and the children like this is such shitty behaviour.

Don't be in the same position in another 10 years OP.

He works away during the week. He was supposed to come home last night but messaged me after 11pm to tell me he wasn’t coming which pissed me off. I messaged this morning to say I was upset that he didn’t tell me until hours after he knew he’d have missed the last train and that DC were upset he wasn’t home but we’re super looking forward to seeing him tonight. He read it but didn’t reply. I messaged earlier this evening to check he was on and still coming home as very out of character for him to not reply to me. That message is still one grey tick and profile pic has gone on WhatsApp. I’ve tried calling but going straight to answerphone.

Has everything been said that needs to be said about your complaints and his new arrival time? Because it sounds like you might be rebuking and reiterating a lot? Nobody hangs on your every whatsapp message if you do that

A decade of this…!

Make the next decade actually the rest of your life free from this dead weight.

You are doing everything on your own anyway.
