To feel slightly suspicious of dp

Hi, I'm looking to know would YOU be suspicious? I'm not really suspicious but maybe a bit slightly?

So, dp works for his dads business and has for the last 10 years. Dp doesn't start work until 9. Usually he would set an alarm for 8:30 which sounds really late but his workplace is a 2 minute drive from our home. And he's really easy going 🤣. His dad doesn't drive but a workmate would always collect him.

About a month ago dp started setting alarms at 6.45-7:15 getting up and leaving the house within 10 mins of those alarms. (Extremely early from before) I've been with dp 5 years he's never up that early for work.

He says it's because he's starting to give his dad a lift to work every morning. His mum and dad live a 5 minute drive from our home. That's not too suspicious. But the thing that's making me go 🤨 is he's leaving home in the mornings in his normal clothes. He says he gets ready in his parents house just before he leaves for work as it's easier?

He has a specific work uniform. He would always get ready here before leaving.

So he's started leaving the house over an hour earlier than usual and not getting ready here?

Would you be suspicious?

I don’t think it’s fair to turn this into a debate about whether the post is real. I think it’s far more likely that OP has simply got caught up in life and it’s no longer in the forefront of her mind to post updates here.

I agree besides I want the thread to stay so we can get an update

the posters built up well this thread. Has a thread ever been filled up to the 1000th with the main poster never having come back

BabyOwlinthePlumeria · 01/10/2024 19:43

I started to think it wasn't real as well, but after you've gotten everyone so stirred and invested, surely you would thicken the plot before you left? Maybe she is 11 bottles of bleach op and the delivery driver had it right

You're an absolute treat💗

HowToSaveAWife · 01/10/2024 19:53

I would just assume that maybe OP has found out the truth and is dealing with some real life situation(s).

In which case OP, I really do wish you the best.

She set the cat among the chickens, and left. Or, as we say in Maltese, she threw the stone and his her hand.

Or maybe she has bigger things to worry about rather than updating an Internet forum thread??

cuddlebear · 01/10/2024 21:57

@wwyt this definitely sounds odd. I hope you get to the bottom of it

BabyOwlinthePlumeria · 01/10/2024 23:05

If troll hunting posts are only deleted when reported, who is so vehemently reporting the comments on this post? One or two mins after a doubtful post then gone

Tanjamaltija · 02/10/2024 04:45

Considering the length of the OP, I'd have expected a ''will update you'' type of post; just three words would have done.

wwyt · 02/10/2024 10:47

Hi everyone,

I'm most definitely not a troll , who would make up this post? Would be very random

I'm not very further forward to be honest I will update later I'm feel very down at the moment - from what we know already it doesn't look good
