Partner of 6 years woke up in a bad mood. Messaging me (whilst at work this morning) moaning about the state of the house.
Got home was tidying he was in bed as he's got "man flu" moaned I turned the light on. DP said I'd done it on purpose to annoy him. One massive argument later he asked me to leave. Apparently I only think about myself. Currently on the bus to DMs with my 2 DC :( I'm devastated

What a horrible shock. Are DC his?

Whywonttheyletmeusemyusername · 10/08/2019 18:31

It sounds like it might have been said in the heat of the moment...could that be a possibility?

Sexnotgender · 10/08/2019 18:31

Is he always such a dick?

Rainbowqueeen · 10/08/2019 18:33

Handholding here

He doesn’t sound very nice

Please look after yourself. I’m glad you have RL support

GruciusMalfoy · 10/08/2019 18:35

I'm so sorry, I hope you and DC will be able to be with your mum for a while until you take stock. Put you and the kids first for now.

AnyOldPrion · 10/08/2019 18:36

Is this out of the blue, or is he normally a moaning arse?

You’ll get through this, either way.

Is your mum supportive? If so, that’s a massive help in the short term.

Is it his house? If not i would have told him to leave

Glitterandunicorns · 10/08/2019 18:38

Hi OP. Here's a hand hold for you.

He sounds awful. I'm so sorry though; it must have been a shock for you. Thanks

Armadillostoes · 10/08/2019 18:40

I am sorry OP. You deserve much better than this-do not tolerate it. Just asking your partner to leave out of the blue with two little ones in tow is not normal and not the action of a decent person. Dump him for good and make sure he pays what he owes for the children if they are his.

Mummyto2munchkins · 10/08/2019 18:41

Both DC are his, he's got form of having ago about the house. Moans I'm on my phone too much. My mums not there but I have her keys. & yes it's his house.

It may be his house but it’s also his children’s home.

I’d have told him I was staying with my DCs in their home & he could piss off if he wanted to.

Mummyto2munchkins · 10/08/2019 18:55

He wouldn't have, he's told me too many times to leave or he will. He will never leave. He's also asked me for 300 quid for the bills. I've told him no.
We've been gone an hour. No call no text. Nothing

MyFokMarelize · 10/08/2019 18:59

Will you go back if he asks you to?

cakeandchampagne · 10/08/2019 19:06

I’m glad you & the children have a place to go. Will you be able to stay with her until you get your own home?

AllFourOfThem · 10/08/2019 19:07

I’m sorry. You and your DC deserve better. I’d put in a CMS application on Monday morning.

Soubriquet · 10/08/2019 19:09

You are worth more than this OP

Let this be the light for you to leave his sorry arse

Treaclesweet · 10/08/2019 19:16

Do not go back. You have to move on and not subject your children to this rejection yoyo.

Mummyto2munchkins · 10/08/2019 19:23

Just waiting for my Aunty to pick us up. DM has rung her as she was worried about us going by train afterwarda

OP posts:
CoffeeRunner · 10/08/2019 21:06

He’s asking you for money towards the bills of a house he’s thrown you & his DC out of?

Not a chance in hell.

BlueSuffragette · 10/08/2019 21:08

Good luck OP. Flowers

RandomMess · 10/08/2019 21:17

I think your future looks brighter without him in it Thanks

Mummyto2munchkins · 10/08/2019 21:20

I'm at my DM. Still nothing from him... Hell probably moan that I've not told him how DC are but he's got a phone... Aunties just made me a cuppa

OP posts:
GruciusMalfoy · 10/08/2019 21:30

He knows your phone number. If he has a go at you it's because he wants to make you feel like shit. I hope time away from him gives you clarity x

Jupiters · 10/08/2019 21:35

He's treating you with no respect. Don't contact him, he's assuming you'll be back in touch and then he's see himself as the winner here. Don't give him money for a house you're not living in.
Start having a good think about what you want and what's best for you and your children. Think about how you'd feel of it was your daughter who was in your position and how you'd react.

Armadillostoes · 10/08/2019 21:45

OP-You need to stop caring what he says or thinks. He effectively threw his own children out of the house. He is NO position to whine or demand anything from anybody. He is controlling and a selfish bully. Stay where you are loved and safe and don't run after him.
