Weird, kids were out in garden and said a guys here for daddy went out and I dont know him but asked if he was in, said no hes at work and asked his name, he told me but never heard of him. I asked him what he wanted and he said was wanting to ask a favour about a car then asked for his number. Said im not giving him it and he said oh ok ill try catch him another time. Was pleasent enough but I dont like that sort of thing.

Txt husband but doubt he will reply until his break :(

OP, I think it really does have some boring explanation.

Please don't think people don't care - I know that anxiety is bloody horrible. I guess a few posters are messing around because they know this will have a very boring explanation.

Hope you're ok. Have some Flowers

This is AIBU, not behave like cunts to other posters.

HoldYerWhist · 09/06/2015 19:15

Hope it turns out to be a friend of your brother.

This sort of thing would bother me too!

Royalsighness · 09/06/2015 19:18

He probably sells your husband a bit of weed every now and then that he smokes in secret.

Seriouslyffs · 09/06/2015 19:19

I'm sure it's nothing to worry about. If it happens again, in person or if you get a phone call you feel uncomfortable about, get their name and number, then you're in control. Flowers

Wirecat - no need to be so aggressive.

eyebags63 · 09/06/2015 19:23

Clearly having a gay affair with his teenage drug dealer.

AyMamita · 09/06/2015 19:34

Does your husband know a lot about cars?

vodkanchocolate · 09/06/2015 19:48

Hes not a mechanic no but he is into cars has recently bought an old banger he keeps fiddling about with with my brother could be to do with that

I'm sure that will be it. I worry about daft things like this too. You are not alone :)

MammaTJ · 09/06/2015 19:59

You know a knock on the door is a request not an order, don't you?

I often ignore the door when not expecting anyone and that might be a better way of managing your anxiety than posting in AIBU.

TheReluctantCountess · 09/06/2015 20:01

I bet the lad is buying his first car and someone has recommended your dh as someone who can offer advice.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 09/06/2015 20:05

I am thinking you maybe should have taken his number OP, in case DH and your DBro have no idea who he is, then at least they could ring him and find out what he wants! But hopefully DBro will be able to shed some light.

I think you are getting an undeserved hard time here.

vodkanchocolate · 09/06/2015 23:09

Was my brothers mate. No valid reason according to my brother but said hes asked and it was him. Hubby doesnt seem any wiser.

Brother goes round with a bad crowd there always upto something so still bit concerned as been spending lot of time together.

KingTut · 09/06/2015 23:17

It's probably a dealer then. Sad

Tequilashotfor1 · 09/06/2015 23:34

Could he be selling dodgy stuff?

I've had a couple of younger lads knocking on for DP to see if he wanted stolen gardening gear Shock they know his nephew and he said he might be intrested Hmm

DP obviously told them to fuck off

spillyobeans · 09/06/2015 23:42

Bit strange!

ethelb · 09/06/2015 23:50

vodkanchocolate · 10/06/2015 07:27

I would just like to point out, as someone's DH, that I do occasionally talk to people from all walks of life, sometimes people I wouldn't remember, and sometimes offer random people help with eg: cars, and I am hardly buggering them or running a meth empire with them at all.

Just putting that out there. Grin
