Partner has blocked me

Long story short but my partner is in a mood with me (for no reason may I add) and has blocked my number, and blocked me on social media etc so I can't contact him, would this annoy you?

Nah, let him sulk.

PrincessofWells · 07/06/2024 14:59

No, because he would be unceremoniously dumped.

Starlightstarbright3 · 07/06/2024 14:59

It would be the end for me .

especially based on nothing .

OlympicProcrastinator · 07/06/2024 14:59

I’d block him back and ghost him. Forever.

Next!

RubaiyatOfAnyone · 07/06/2024 15:00

Stretching the definition of “partner” in any examination of the word, don’t you think?

Saintmariesleuth · 07/06/2024 15:00

I'd find it incredibly helpful that he's showed me his lack of communication skills and inability to cope with relationship issues like a functioning adult.

How far in to this relationship are you OP?

WillimNot · 07/06/2024 15:01

And you're not seeing this as him doing you a favour because?

What an absolute child!

Let him block you and use the opportunity to find an actual fully functioning adult, not this man baby who sulks and blocks like some 14 year old child.

You have child together and he's doing this? What a fucking melt. I'd be seriously considering the relationship

Temporaryname158 · 07/06/2024 15:03

Would it annoy me? No, because I’d have just dumped him and he wouldn’t be my boyfriend and problem any more.

trust me, this isn’t normal behaviour and isn’t ok. Dump him and save yourself a sad future.

gamerchick · 07/06/2024 15:04

He's put you in a cupboard while he goes off and do something he knows you wouldn't like. When he's done, he'll unblock you knowing you'll bend right over to make him happy so you'll feel secure again.

Tell him to bog off.

Ionasmum19 · 07/06/2024 15:04

He struggles with DDs additional needs and I get the brunt of it, as per usual. He has been fine all week yet woke up this morning and back in a mood.

Big man baby, tell him to buck up or fuck off

Great user name😉😂

catin8oots · 07/06/2024 15:14

My husband blocked me and both our kids. I filed for divorce the same day.

Turned out he was having an affair what a surprise

Bearing in mind this was the guy who hasn't even logged on to his fb or IG for about a decade.

You’ve got two children with additional needs, DD and him. Do yourself the ultimate favour and kick him to the kerb. This is not a partnership in any meaning of the word.

it’s one thing turning your phone off for a couple of hours (and, frankly, Id find that hard to forgive) but blocking you on social media etc is fucking laughable!

Block him back and leave him blocked.

MsSorrento · 07/06/2024 15:21

I left my ex husband in the middle of one of his lengthy sulks. Silly man. He thought he could behave like that and I'd just keep putting up with it.

HaudYerWheeshtYaWeeBellend · 07/06/2024 15:24

No, I’d simply end the relationship, you have one child with additional needs, why add a man child to your already difficult circumstances.

what is he doing when he blocks you?

Sounds like a few men who I know, who have additional needs themselves and their kids trigger them.

When he calms down, tell him you think that he struggles with DDs needs because he's so similar, but he's an adult and needs to get help because you shouldn't need to deal witg an adult throwing tantrums.

ToxicChristmas · 07/06/2024 15:29

How childish.
I couldn't put up with pathetic behaviour like that. He's a grown man with a child, not a 14 year old having a strop. Who wants to put up with that when you already have a child with additional needs who requires your attention. You might as well get on with things on your own. Don't go begging for him to unblock you. Refuse to acknowledge it. He WANTS you to be desperate to get hold of him and to be worried and sad. Don't stay with a man like that.

DaftyLass · 07/06/2024 15:34

I'd have no respect for him
Does he have any redeeming qualities?

BeeCucumber · 07/06/2024 15:46

Raise your standards.

beckybarefoot · 07/06/2024 15:50

i see you've been together 10 years and have a daughter and he just woke up in a mood today and blocked you?

hm.. wonder whats really going on?

Quite. He wouldn't be a 'partner' anymore.
