He’s fucking locked me out.

[FuckingFreezing1]

Basically this. I’ve text him as I can’t get in, I’ve just finished work. He’s on a works Xmas party.

Said he was setting off at 8:45 and he’d be home for 9 so I said cool, take the key.

Now it’s 10pm and I’m sat in a fucking bus shelter because he’s locked me out and won’t come back with the keys, he’s out and apparently I’m unreasonable for asking him to come home to at least let me in.

I haven’t a clue what to do, it’s 4°, my street is poorly lit and this place doesn’t shut til 12. I can’t afford a lock change so that’s out of the question and my mums not in. So I literally have to just wait.

Is there a Travelodge or similar nearby?

Get a locksmith out and charge him

How far away is he from you?

I'm confused, why don't you have your own keys?

Go to a hotel, get more keys cut and LTB.

That’s shit. If the bus comes, could you take it to somewhere warm (McDonald’s?) Any local friends?

Can you get a taxi to wherever his works outing is, and go in there?

This can’t be real. Who only has 1 key to their home?

He has my keys. The reason there’s one set of keys is because he lost the spare.

why is there only one key
surely you should have taken it if he was going to his christmas party

Why don't you have your own keys?
Go pick them up if it's only 15 mins away.

I do. Because he lost them.

So he's 15 mins away? Can you get a taxi to wherever he is? And if that is your only key, get another one cut urgently.

I’m sorry if this is a stupid question but why do you only have one key between you?

as PP said, can you go to a hotel for the night?

Personally I would be calling an emergency locksmith, getting the locks changed, and not letting him in when he comes back. But that depends on sensible things like being on the tenancy/deeds etc.

What like today? Because no one I know goes a single day with only 1 key.

Get a locksmith. Get him to pay you for everything. I would get the ick at a mature man losing keys.

If it’s real, just break a window and climb into your house.

The reason there is one key is because after constant lost fucking keys I got sick of him having one. He’s 15 min away in a car. I’ll have to get the bus then be met with world war fucking 3 for going to here he is

Yes it is a ballache but 15 minutes there, 1 min to receive the keys, 15 mins back, you'll be tucked up in bed by 11pm.

So how would you have got in anyway if you told him to take the only key?

😂 people lose stuff all the time.

If she hasn’t enough money for a locksmith then she can’t afford a hotel and possibly not a taxi also.

OP, bus is a good shout, or are you near a McDonald’s? Can you stay with a friend?

He’s locked you out and going for the key would cause world war three? Dump him.

……he would let me in?

World War 3?
What's the backstory?
