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.

You don't block your wife, ever.

If you do they become your ex wife.

Really hope you're ok. What he's done is out of order, you deserve so much more. It takes 30 seconds to reply to a text!!

he is not a keeper

JackiePlace · 04/03/2023 04:27

Perhaps he is punishing you for being angry on your previous messages.
But in any case OP, you decide what you are going to do and get on with doing it. Don't hang around waiting for him to turn up!

ShirleyPhallus · 04/03/2023 04:36

He sounds really shit OP

also sounds like he’s leading a double life

TerfIngOnTheBeach · 04/03/2023 05:13

How are things financially OP? Could he find two separate lives? I also think he has another woman or family that he’s living with during the week who likely has no idea about you at all.

I think this is disgraceful behaviour from your husband op, he knows you will worry and wonder what on earth is going on. Hope you are ok.

ReliantRobyn · 04/03/2023 06:02

He's just not that into you !

Billybagpuss · 04/03/2023 06:06

Hope you managed to get some sleep last night

Didn’t he say yesterday he’d had a shit day at work so wasn’t coming back as planned? Aren’t you concerned? He may have harmed himself rather than just blocking you…

I worried this too and would potentially be calling the police.

He’s also been cruel to you for a long time so he’s still a dickhead and you should leave him. But separately I did wonder if he might have harmed himself.

hotpotlover · 04/03/2023 07:16

If I could afford it, I would hire a private detective to find out what he's up to during the week.

Hope you're okay xx

Led9519 · 04/03/2023 07:18

If you need to take a sleeping tablet because if your dh then ltb.

LilLilLi · 04/03/2023 07:27

I’m so sorry OP, I hope you managed to get some sleep.

You and your children deserve better than this.

CornishTiger · 04/03/2023 07:36

I’d be concerned about his mental health too and be considering reporting him to police as missing/in need of welfare check.

However he’s still absolutely awful and I’d be leaving him.

Nah save the money for a divorce.

Greensleevevssnotnose · 03/03/2023 21:08

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

This might be my new favourite batshit post on mumsnet 🤣🤣🤣

BipolarSunset · 04/03/2023 08:04

You deserve better than this OP xx

coffeestrongblacknosugar · 04/03/2023 08:04

I hope you got a good sleep OP and I hope you kick your husband to the kerb for the way he is treating you and your children.

BastardtheCat · 04/03/2023 08:05

OP do you know where he works and lives during the week?

Are you tempted to go and watch him, incognito?

hopeishere · 04/03/2023 08:06

That's awful for you and the kids. Hope you got some sleep.

LikeTearsInRain · 04/03/2023 08:08

Does he work closely with any women? His boss? Team members? Secretary? I think it is likely he is having an affair and shagging them OP

Icanflyhigh · 04/03/2023 08:09

I'm speechless. This is awful behaviour.
Did he come home last night?

whiteroseredrose · 04/03/2023 08:11

Even if it's not an affair, the lack of interest in his family would be enough for me. He should be missing you all, not finding you a nuisance.

diddl · 04/03/2023 08:13

He is treating you appallingly.

Do the reasons matter?

Is there any reason that excuses treating your wife and kids like shit?
