So cross with DP

I was closing the boot of the car and it took several attempts to get it properly closed. “D”P started reversing. I banged on the car to tell him to stop reversing into me.
I got into the car and had a go at him, and he said he thought I would just step to the side.
DS asked if I was alright and DP told him I was overreacting.
My knuckles are so sore from rapping on the car whilst he was reversing.
He’s a knob, right?

WTAF? Does he normally have so little regard for your life/welfare?

Bagelsandbrie · 27/02/2022 13:27

Wow that’s so dangerous!! Why on earth did he start reversing at all with you behind the car??

singlepringlenotbychoice · 27/02/2022 13:27

Why did he do it? If I'm getting it right the boot was still open and he reversed, Was he trying to be funny, trying to hurry you up?

I would be annoyed at that too and would probably have walked/got the bus home

I mean, I would step to the side because I value my life but I would also really question / end a relationship with someone who tries to run me over and has no regard for my safety.

Oh dear. No that's really not good. Sorry op.

Hexagonmum · 27/02/2022 13:45

He sounds very passive aggressive, obviously you can tell he was annoyed at you taking ages and decided to show you by reversing then acting spineless when you got in the car...sounds like a grade A twat.
Suggest you do the same to him and see how he likes it.

Luredbyapomegranate · 27/02/2022 13:57

Yes. That’s extraordinary.

Does he have form for this.

Gardeningdream · 27/02/2022 14:07

How very odd. Why did he do that and why did you stay standing behind it, surely natural reaction is to move out of the way of danger?

SamphiretheStickerist · 27/02/2022 14:07

That's fucking ridiculous. He couldn't say much more clearly that he doesn't choose to care much for you, your feelings.

And with his(?) child in the car too!

He's a twat of the first water!

GabriellaMontez · 27/02/2022 14:11

Is he normally a great guy? What's he usually like? Caring? Kind?

Aquamarine1029 · 27/02/2022 14:26

I would be furious. How dare he behave so recklessly.
