It was DP's work Christmas do last night (toight?) He said he was unsure whether to go due to weather as he has a commute.He Decided to go in the ed, saying that as long as he left by 9.30 ish he would be ok, but that later trains had been cancelled due to the snow. He said he would call when he left.

As yet, he has not called. I have tried calling a few times over the last 90 minutes, and his phone is going straight through to voicemail. So I have no idea where he is, but assume he will not be getting home tonight. I am 37 weeks pregnant, have a poorly toddler to look after, and to cap it all off it is now my birthday.

Am asolutely fucking fuming. Am I being unreasonable?

Am I being paranoid wondering why the hell his phone is off?

Is he back yet?

Happy birthday, OP.

What an arsemonkey to leave you so pregnant and looking after an unwell toddler.

Is he home yet??

MummyMyfanwy · 04/12/2010 16:51

I would be mighttily pissed off with him! Not just for being an arse about coming home but not getting intouch to at least say Happy Birthday!

I would love to know what excuse he tried to come up with to crawl his way out of this!

Is he home yet?

Hope you are okay QOD.

MummyMyfanwy · 04/12/2010 23:33

I hope he has turned up by now. You OK?

QueenofDreams · 04/12/2010 23:42

Hi again. Sorry haven't updated till now. He got back at lunchtime. He missed the last train and his phone was dead. then fell asleep on train and ended up travelling between Dover and london.

However, sadly, the day has been monumentally shit sice then. Can't even be bothered to post about it tbh. Worst birthday I've ever had.

He has apologised.

QoD

Sorry you've had such a crap Birthday.

Post about it when you can face it.

He is a complete shitbag and needs to sort it out or get out. He is a married man with a child and a baby on the way, acting like a single bloke is not on.

Give him a kick up the arse.

toomuchmonthatendofthemoney · 05/12/2010 00:00

so sorry about this.

would be shit anyway, but adding in your birthday double shit, ill child triple shit and 37 weeks pregnant - well, that is just Shock - a caring dh shouldn't go anywhere out of contact just in case!!!

come back and let us know how you are, please, when you can. big un MN .

MummyMyfanwy · 05/12/2010 08:25

Well I am glad he turned up albeit ridicuously late and I am so sorry you have had a shit Birthday.

When you're in a better frame of mind get him to make it upto you.

LadyLapsang · 05/12/2010 11:58

Well as long as it's a one off I would say don't dwell on it. My DH did something like this over a decade ago, it was a one off. Let him look after your toddler next weekend and give you a proper break before the new baby arrives.

goplayout · 05/12/2010 21:44

Did he say why he didn't stay at his sister's in London?

fizzfiend · 05/12/2010 22:05

Alarm bells: why didn't he borrow someone else's phone/even use a payphone. He must have known you would be worried sick. I would be extremely dubious...but that's me all over....

So sorry this happened on your birthday...do you want us all to come and kick his butt?

CarGirl · 05/12/2010 22:21

I would be Hmm about his excuses tbh

MortaIWombat · 05/12/2010 22:30

That is one of the worst excuses I think I've ever heard. Ridiculous. Sad for you. He have tied yourself to a cunt. I hope you manage to salvage some pleasure on your birthday.

MortaIWombat · 05/12/2010 22:30

Sorry. You have tied yourself, obviously. He clearly feels no ties.
