As he left for work this morning my husband said he would be back a little later (around 8pm) as he was going for a drink. It's now midnight, i have heard nothing from him and he is still not back nor is he answering texts or calls.

Most times he goes out he does this eventually rolling in drunk after getting the last train. It does my head in! Not so much the coming in much later than he said, more the not answering my calls. As I have no idea if he is okay. He then gets annoyed by me being annoyed.....

So who is BU? He genuinely believes I am but it's him, right? Would love to know what other people think.

I'm still on the original thread. Don't know what you lot are doing.

My DH would always say "I won't be late." when on the way out for an evening. Then I would worry as the time got later and later. (Pre mobile phones).
So I decided to ignore him saying that every time - result was no more worries about lateness for me.

Bullet I ignore trolls who are so thick they end up in an argument with themselves. Not the OP's fault, she deserves an answer.

Has your partner come home yet? You are not wrong to be annoyed. However if you are asking for a time and he is never sticking to it why does he do that? That's the bigger question to me. Rather as saying il probably fall through the door at 2am with a kebab and pockets full of shrapnel.
The lip service doesn't wash and it's just left you fretting all night about him.

I've been rejected by mankind since I was a child

What's all this about shoes having souls?

Are you a cobbler, or just talking them?

You don't run the scheme if you are from Newton Mearns. Your daddy pays for your pony whilst ignoring you love lol.
