AIBU to be totally fucked off with this man?

My house was broken into last night. Car keys and car stolen, nothing else. Difficult day with police, forensics, locksmiths, insurance companies and car hire people. I have a small holiday keys business which requires me to move around (in the car!) turning the properties around for new guests, so the-shuffling that all day. At the end of this day my partner tells me he’s fucking off to watch his son play sport. So, once I’ve finished cleaning this property, I’ll walk home with a dirty bag of bed linen and towels and sit on my own. Is it me?

YANBU. I'd expect some moral support at the very least. Being burgled is a horrid experience, let alone dealing with the aftermath.

Warm bath, big glass of wine and put him out of your head for the evening. And remember today when he needs something next.

Murpher let his son come round and do it then.

I really would struggle to help him if he can't treat you with basic respect and support when you're having a hard time.

He needs to know how much he's let you down.

Did your partner not notice that your car was gone?

your DP is being a total arse, get a taxi home at least.

On a side note, contact your Adult Social Care Locality team before his next operation. Different councils will have different rules, but my area anyone can get two weeks support after an operation if they are going to need help with p/c, food and emptying commodes. During that time the team assess for ongoing needs which could be funded depending on your financial situation.
No-one there would judge you, and could be better for your relationship if you don't be his carer, and certainly better for your wellbeing and health.

Thank you. That’s really useful advice and was never offered before, I’ll look into it.
