So we have had a really stressful 6 months, never mind last 4 years, all house renovation then recently moving related.
To sum up today we went to my mums who is currently trying to dig herself out of a flooded house, which happened 2 days before christmas, and he came storming in as I was in there a lot longer than I said I would be as mum on phone and had to wait, anyway my mum just went ballistic and said just go, I can't deal with the stress. So this led to the most huge argument in car on way home. He has absolutely no apprecistion of the self and how he comes accross. He can be so bloodey rude and aggressive. My mum not bin his fan club as it is but he of the theory if they don't like me then stuff them.
He left for over 4 hours, never done this before. I was of the thought that stuff him, but actually thought after a while shit, what if that is it? We aren't normally childish but what a cunt??

its commonly know as attention seeking, forget about it, he wants you to put him first end of story wether he knows it or not, thats what he's doing.

Your poor mum! :(

If your Mum openly doesn't like him, it's fair enough if doesn't bother with her.

But why doesn't she like him? She could be right.

agree with babe - attention seeking, he is probably timing you until you text or ring him. I'd lock the doors, switch the lights off and go to bed. If he rings then tell him to go to a hotel for the night and you'll see him in the morning when you have both had time to think and to sleep so you don't say anything you might regret.

So he threw a tantrum because you happened to be in your mums longer than you originally thought you would be Hmm

Lock up, go to bed, do not contact him, leave him to sulk. Oh, and I'd be expecting an apology from him when he finally turns up. Reasonable people would come in to the house to find out what was causing the hold up, not storm in being rude and aggressive.

He probably is mad,(without fair reason) but sounds like he is also being vvu. Chances are you will hear from him within a day. Gives you more time to go help your mother.

But be aware that when he does get in touch you will be in the wrong for not chasing after him, not him for buggering off in the first place.

He is behaving like a stroppy toddler and as such I would treat him like one. Ignore his stupid tantrums, he will only do it when he thinks he has something to gain from it.

Did he come home in the end?
