AIBU to think he's aboard?

[Pinkdaisy4]

NAme changed but a regular.

So, I've been with my new bf for about a month. We both met at work and the attraction was instant. He's single and I'm recently separated. We both work shifts and I have a young ds so meeting up is a task but we manage it.

My issue is that he said he was on a 7 day course in b'ham coming home tomorrow. He's texted me every morning telling me he loves / misses me. I hadn't heard from him this morning so rang him this evening. The dialing tone sounded odd, like the one you hear when calling abroad. It rang and clicked on to voice mail.

Weird or am I being paranoid?

I can't believe how many people said "it sounds like he's on a family holiday?" such suspicious minds!!

For what it's worth, I've been with DH for 12 years and I recently went away for work, curiously it didn't even occur to me to tell him exactly where I was staying so I guess I often don't! (mental note to self: things are different now you have a child: make sure DH knows where you are!!!)

I agree fififrog there's really nothing much to go on here and the bloke has done nothing apart from probably had a bloody boring miserable week away on a course on his own (with a company where they both work, he'd have to be pretty bloody stupid to lie when they work together!!)

If anyone ever needed proof that some people are utterly paranoid and will look for the worst in anyone it's some of the replies on this thread

Though... Just to say, I actually wouldn't count the OP in that category - sounds like she's had a tough time and it's easy to get worried about things!

Thank you fififrog I can't believe I even had those thoughts now.
Ds had a tummy bug so I was off work with him and had very little sleep.

We saw each other this evening. Certainly no tan marks and had been where he said he was. Study notes and certificate on his dining table.

Yes, it's not been an easy year. PND and controlling ex but all is well now.

Thank you

Glad it all worked out well for you in the end

Glad all is well
