To think OH prank isn't funny?

[afternoonnapqueen]

Today is the day I hear if I got the job I wanted I'm really banking on getting it and will be gutted if I don't.

I get terrible anxiety I worked myself up so much last week I had a panic attack. OH has been pranking me this morning of No caller ID he even got his brother to join in.

I kept thinking I missed the call and was wondering why they couldn't hear me when I kept saying Hello, I was getting my self into a right mess.

OH and his brother cracking up laughing messaging each other, now they've put me in a terrible mood.

AIBU to think this isn't funny or am I just too serious?

Get the job and dump the man
He is a dick

He's a negging, gaslighting, punk ass cunt. He's about as funny as dirt. Pranks are almost never funny, they're designed to humiliate the victim.

Wake up here. Is this who he is but this is your lightbulb moment? Who would do that to someone they love? You want people you love to be happy in all aspects of their lives. He clearly doesn't.

And now he's gaslit you about 'ruining the day' and trying to make out you're the bad guy.

I couldn't be with a person who did this to me. Fuck that. Do onto others as you'd have them do to you. Would you do this to him? You know the answer.

Hope you get the new job and then ditch him.

That is a bastard thing to do.
My ex did the same to me. I was waiting for a letter to say whether or not I had passed my nursing exams, and I was already with him in Germany so I had burned my boats. He met me in the supermarket with the letter in his hand, and said I'm so sorry, you've failed. I hadn't, but I still remember the sinking feeling I had.

He thought such things were funny. They're not, they are cruel, just like he turned out to be.

That's horrible, he sounds nasty especially involving his brother as well. Is he often like this? If you are very anxious maybe he is a major cause of your anxiety. I think it would be worth exploring the cause of your anxiety with someone as if it's him perhaps you should think about how you want to spend the rest of your life.

I saw everyone piling on and considered trying to take you DP's side, but... just NO. No one would think this was OK. Sorry.

If you're lucky, he's a self-centred utter knobhead.

If you're unlucky, he's a cruel, selfish bastard.

Not only has his twatty prank made you cry, he's now blaming you for it. He is a wanker OP and don't let him make you think it's you at fault. Good luck with the job.

I hate prank but that's not even a prank. That's cruel and stupid.

He is being a dick. Who does that to someone they are suppose to love.

Fingers crossed you get it OP.

thats an absolute twat thing to do.

ive got my fingers crossed for you

I'm in tears over it all he's saying I've ruined the day because I've got in a mood over it all. God I hate him so much! He's trying to say he was preparing me for the call.

All your fault, what a surprise! What a prince among men. I hope you get the job and dump the OH, he won't improve

What is wrong with just a bit of good old fashioned support FFS! He's being a nasty nasty person, you dont deserve this behaviour from him.

Spiteful shit.
I hope you get the job, OP.

Ringing once would be a prank (and not a funny one). Doing it repeatedly and roping his brother in to help and them laughing about it is arsehole behaviour.

Blaming YOU for ruining the day when it was HIS actions that started it all is LTB territory for me.

Get the job and use the money to leave him

If you get the job, is it a first step to leaving this nasty little piece of shit?

He sounds truly horrible.

Imagine a little daughter or son running to you in tears on a regualr basis because Daddy has been taunting/pranking/teasing/pulling them down (oh sorry, 'bantering' with them).

Really hate this kind of behaviour and it's always the sign of a nasty small-minded knobhead.

You can do better

That's a horrible thing to do. Pranks are only funny when they're harmless and everyone sees the funny side

And, what happens if the employer phones to offer you the job and you say "Oh FFS, not you again?" That's hardly going to make a good impression

What a pair of childish dicks. Hope you get the job!

@citycitycity

I’m not a fan of pranks but this one is particularly nasty.

I would honestly think about leaving someone with this mentality.

You aren't wrong there. He's being a complete idiot.

It’s not remotely funny. It’s cruel.

I really hope you get the job, and most importantly dump the blame-shifting bully.

(As I expect you will minimize his behavior or can't dump him, please please atleast put something in his dinner that gives him the shits).

OP, I’m wondering how much of your anxiety is very much tied to your dick of a partner.....

I’m willing to bet that someone more supportive would result in less anxiety for you all around.

Are they actually trying to trigger another panic attack?! I'm a spiteful cow, as such until I could dump him I would be 'pranking' him right back.

Oh dear, who shat on your pillow? Lols, prank.
Oops, who put orange juice on your keyboard, lols again.

That’s a really horrible thing to do! I can’t believe a grown man would do that, that’s low for even an immature teenage boy.
What’s he like otherwise OP? I wouldn’t normally jump to say ‘leave him’ but if he’s like this generally...

That's unkind. There's no situation where that would be appropriate considering it's a serious matter and you're so anxious to hear from them.

Fingers crossed you get the job and your OH grows tf up! Try to keep yourself busy and distracted in the meantime, and when you hear try to unwind and relax. Best of luck, OP!

Typical bullying, plays it down, it’s banter, a joke, just a laugh, lighten up. Leave him!

What a prat. Is he 12? If not then he needs to grow up, stop being a dick and apologise for being shitty to you and getting you panicked of your hopes up.
