Would it be childish of me to blow him off?

[Angel1983]

Had a stupid argument yesterday with my boyfriend. I thought we had got over it but evidently not.

He was supposed to text me to let me know what time was convenient for me to come over to his for dinner but he didn't text me. I texted him once it became apparent that I wasn't getting an invite over to ask if he could spare me some time to talk tomorrow. The response I got was 'yeah, I can do that'. No apologies/explanation for not texting me. He is now completely ignoring me.

WIBU not to go round to his house tomorrow to talk to him and instead take my friend up on her offer of a night out with the girls? And just not tell him this and leave him hanging like he did to me last night. I am tempted but I don't want to be too childish!

Any opinions welcomed!

Is he 33?

Momagain I agree. Fancy meeting for a and a bitch Angel?

Silent Treatment - no he isn't 33. He is 38 and his name begins with N. Im so relieved!

How I wish there had been MN when I was 20.

Sounds like my ex at the beginning of our 20 year relationship. 'Oh I can never fall in love again because of my evil ex who dumped me and went off with another man' blah fucking blah. I took it all in. Was determined that I could help him love again and all manner of crap. It wasn't until my kids were 10 that I realised that his behaviour (gas lighting, manipulation, verbal abuse and, later, physical and sexual abuse) was not normal.

Phew. Thank foook.

Does he often give you the silent treatment (average length: 24 hours) and then text you as if nothing had happened?

What's he like when you're actually spending time with him?

He's a total and utter twat.
Dump him.

Silent treatment. When we are together it's actually really good. Unless I try to discuss emotions. All women are deranged apparently and mentally unstable....... Then he will just blank me but afterwared eill

Sorry, wine has been taken. I was trying to say, afterwards he will deny that he was ignoring me.

Definitely up for or coffe. Pm me and we can arrange something!

All women are deranged apparently and mentally unstable....... Then he will just blank me but afterwared

Just dump him, what a loser.

Honestly just move on from this guy - nothing you can do will make him 'drop his guard' he's not not emotionally able or intelligent and his attitude to women is awful. He's telling you he will treat you badly and seeing if you will tolerate it. I really can't see how this will get better.

You may like his personality but that's only the outside.

If he thinks 'all women are deranged and mentally unstable' then do him (and yourself) a favour and leave him on his own! He might change his mind and his attitude when he's sitting by himself and he realises he's lost a great girl. Ditch. Him. Get a real man.

When we are together it's actually really good

Really good in what way? Sometimes what we think is "really good" is actually just crumbs because asshats (aka - our blokes) 'manage down' our expectations.

He hates women. Go have a with Silent and find better men after a suitably appropriate time of mourning.

How come only Silent and Angel are getting ?

Folks, do you reckon all men who play these silent treatment games are innately misogynistic? This is the first bloke I've dated who does this and I can't get my head around it.

P.S. OP, I PMed you.

Let him get on with it. Be reasonable and laid back. Leave it to him to do the running.

If he won't allow another woman to "get her claws" into him, what does he want out of this relationship? Does he never intend to have a relationship with a woman again? Either way it doesn't sound like there's any future in it.
