Just that really. We were out with friends, going back to theirs. Dh refused to back to theirs but I don't know why. The others left in a cab. I couldn't leave dh alone in the pub. I I said I'm going home. He said OK. Followed me out in a fit and angry, cos he felt obliged to follow me. He's walked home. I'm 2 miles away from homre and sitting in the cold shivering
He messaged me to ask if I got an uber home. I said no, he said good we've spent £x on uber tonight.

He's walked home and I'm sitting on the kerb, 2 miles away in the dark, cold.

I'm not. He can see where I am on a tracker we have for our son. He's now gone to bed..

Thoughts ?

Keep walking or get a taxi to a friend's

CatsLikeBoxes · 16/11/2024 01:01

Why couldn't you leave him in the pub? As you stayed, why didn't you walk with him? Get an Uber home or even better, back to your friends' house?

AutumnalBaker · 16/11/2024 01:02

Go home.

InWalksBarberalla · 16/11/2024 01:03

Why didn't you walk home with him?

OchAyeTheN00 · 16/11/2024 01:04

This makes no sense. You chose not to leave him in the pub. He’s then walked home and you’ve chosen not to walk with him?

go home.

Boopadoop90 · 16/11/2024 01:04

He was in a huff but don't know why. I said I'm going home, he v reluctantly followed me I said don't bother. He said he wanted to walk home alone. So I let him. I'm in the cold, shivering, a good 2 miles away

Put the phone away, get up off the kerb and go home.

LadyWiddiothethird · 16/11/2024 01:04

You should have walked home with him! Are you drunk?

Stichintime · 16/11/2024 01:04

I don't really understand this. You are an adult, you don't need a man to escort you home.

TotHappy · 16/11/2024 01:04

Did he storm off away from you, OP? If he followed you out, how come you didn't go back with him?
I think i would just walk home, now, unless for some reason that's particularly daunting e.g. dodgy neighbourhood or dark country lanes. I wouldn't want a 2 mile walk alone in the middle of the night but I could do it. Can you?

OchAyeTheN00 · 16/11/2024 01:04

Well it is cold. So get off the floor, and go home rather than posting on mumsnet.

Thunderpants88 · 16/11/2024 01:04

I don’t understand any of this. He stormed off home and you sat outside in the cold? Wise up and go to a friends house

Why aren't you walking?

Cos.... predatory men??!

DurinsBane · 16/11/2024 01:05

If he felt obliged to follow you, and he did follow you out of the pub, how come you didn’t walk home together? How did you get separated?

KenAdams · 16/11/2024 01:05

Wtf. Just call an Uber.

Vaxtable · 16/11/2024 01:06

Just get an uber. And get of MN. Go home

ColaCar · 16/11/2024 01:06

Get up off the kerb and walk home! Why are you just sat there writing on MN?! Very odd.

Monty27 · 16/11/2024 01:06

You'll regret this tomorrow if you don't quit the drama and get yourself home. How old are you?

DurinsBane · 16/11/2024 01:06

DogsandFlowers · 16/11/2024 01:05

I think they mean why didn’t she walk with her husband

bumblefeline · 16/11/2024 01:07

Last thing I'd think of if I was sat on a kerb in the cold is to post on Mumsnet. Get a bloody Uber. What's wrong with people.

MagentaRocks · 16/11/2024 01:07

DogsandFlowers · 16/11/2024 01:05

Cos.... predatory men??!

I doubt sitting on a kerb is any safer

SprinklesSparkles · 16/11/2024 01:07

i don’t understand this, just get a cab or walk🤷🏻‍♀️
