To think this message is patronising or off in some way

[Sweetsugarr]

I’m just wondering what others think as I don’t really like the tone of it but not sure if I’m over thinking it. It’s from someone who I’ve been seeing but I’ve been busy recently, single mum, work and my daughters just started school so not had as much time. What do you think? Also he knows I can’t have come to his this morning as I already told him I work Thursdays. Thank you

Send him back to school via the bin.

Passive aggressive manipulative simpleton. Straight in the bin.

He sounds like a pig ignorant oaf.
get rid of him, “chick” 🙄

Some of these replies are so dramatic.

He is just communicating his feelings.
I guess in the land of MN that is unheard of though.

Different areas have different dialect and I’ve definitely been called chick a few times in the north.

His lack of grammar would annoy me if I couldn’t understand but I can and I wouldn’t end a relationship over it.
Not everyone has a good education, has perfect vision/mobility or English as a first language.
It’s also possible that he was busy at work at was typing fast or using voice to send the message if he was driving.

I wouldn’t end the relationship over this one text bug I would think about whether you have time for a relationship.

If someone wants to be with you they will make it known and make time for you, is the advice MN usually gives.
Perhaps he’s an MNer and is realising that you’re not into him.

He is whinging that she doesn't put aside the non-important things like children and work to come panting with his smelly trainers in her mouth.

First step in the Tate school teaching teen boys how to tame women.

Either way, the relationship is over. The crux of the matter, whichever way he phrases it, is he wants her to be more attentive/spend more time with him and she can't, due to being a single parent.
So she either walks away or puts him first above work and children. Not a difficult decision tbh.

@UnctuousUnicorns A bit aggressive and judgemental

Yes he wants you to stroke his ego and make him feel better (with zero concern about trying to make you feel guilty)

he's saying things so u say the opposite

"i know u don't like me" so you say oooh i do i really do

he's fishing instead of coming out with whatever is on his mind.

I may not be a grammar pedant, but my vagina is.

Proper LOL @thecatsthecats

You need to raise your standards OP. He sounds barely literate.

It's uncanny how often the first response to the OP hits the nail on the head. 🌹

He’s semi-literate, needy and calls you “chick”. Do you need to ask?

Oh, that's rich, on this thread.
