I have name changed because he knows my username.
He said he needed space and wanted to go for a couple of days and I told him if he went that would be it. After all, if I want space I can't just go away for a few days can I?

I feel so sad right now and am currently downing what's left of the booze in the house, DS is at his GM's.

That made me smile!!!

Sounds like you both need a breather.

LonelyNight · 06/03/2012 22:28

Mojito I wouldn't put it past him to come on here and huff and puff... That's why I changed my name. :o

mojitomania · 06/03/2012 22:29

OP it reads to me that youve just called him on it and he's gone off sulking.

MonsterBookOfTysons · 06/03/2012 22:29

Sounds like he needs to buck his idea's up if he was to come back.
Mojito I was starting to think hisgentletouch may of been OP's dp Confused

rightchoice · 06/03/2012 22:30

He hasn't showered in a what..... a m o n t h?? Gross

LonelyNight · 06/03/2012 22:30

He just posted 'the sound of silence - Simon and Garfunkle' Hmm

LonelyNight · 06/03/2012 22:31

Nah, hisgentletouch isn't DP. I can tell solely on the spelling. Wink

rightchoice Maybe more!! I have to change the bed every day because it's so boke!

MonsterBookOfTysons · 06/03/2012 22:32

Eurgh, if my partner goes for more than 2 days without a shower I feel ill Grin

rightchoice · 06/03/2012 22:33

OMG I don't even want to think about it...... OMG a month or more. Oh dear.

mojitomania · 06/03/2012 22:34

Well so what. He's had a bollocking and is wallowing in his own self pity the manchild.

LonelyNight · 06/03/2012 22:34

Monster I feel the same, he's really overweight and hairy as well. Not the nicest!

I am mad weird about showering, most times at least twice a day so you can see that I might have a problem with the never showering.

BUT He's normally a lovely person... And the sex is pretty amazing (when he showers).

OP posts:
rightchoice · 06/03/2012 22:35

If I were you I would be encouraging him to stay put until his personal habits had changed for the better, at least you will have a clean bed all to yourself tonight.

MonsterBookOfTysons · 06/03/2012 22:36

Grin at sex being amazing when he showers!
Do you think he is depressed? The out of work, isolating himself and lack of showers maybe signs, or has he always been the same?

mojitomania · 06/03/2012 22:37

How old are you OP? Just asking like.

Has he always been so lax with his personal hygene?

LonelyNight · 06/03/2012 22:39

Monster I thought that but he seems pretty happy most of the time, I think he's just got into the habit of being lazy.

Mojito 21. And no he used to shower a lot.

Fairenuff · 06/03/2012 22:40

It does sound like depression OP, has he been to the GP?

LonelyNight · 06/03/2012 22:43

See, it does sound like it and at first I thought that too but I really don't think it is, he's very very talkative and seems fine with everything else.

I've been trying to get him to go to the GP, he kept saying he would then wouldn't bother.

OP posts:
MonsterBookOfTysons · 06/03/2012 22:45

Well if it is depression and he is unwilling to get help or it is him being a lazy git, it is still difficult for you with a 6 month old!
Is he also 21 or older? He sounds rather immature tbh.

mojitomania · 06/03/2012 22:46

I'm another one voting for depression here BUT it does sound like he's not particularly ready for family life and needs to man up a bit. Don't start feeling too sorry for him just yet though. You're the one doing everything and coping with a baby. Tell him you think he may be depressed and he needs to get an appointment at the doctors. Don't have him back until he does though.

mojitomania · 06/03/2012 22:47

cross posting here.

LonelyNight · 06/03/2012 22:49

Monster He's 25... Thanks for the Wine. :)

Mojito I wont be taking him back unless he makes drastic changes, I don't feel sorry for him because he very much wanted us to have DS.

hisgentletouch · 06/03/2012 22:52

I meant she could have a few days away from him if she wanted to (with the child or not if parents could help). As I sau if he's no good as a partner and she hates him, then she should just let him go altogether, neither of them are enjoying each other's company. Some women post that they love their P/H and upset ig he left, but in this case she obv hates him and better off without.

LonelyNight · 06/03/2012 22:54

I don't hate him, right now I'm just angry and being spiteful.
I love him very much, just not some of the habits he has picked up the last while.
