To be a weeny bit suspicious of DP going to work today?

403 replies

TallDwarf · 17/03/2013 11:09

DP owns his own company along with his business partner. He does sometimes work weekends but its always from home, today he has gone in to work in one of their popular city locations. It was a last minute plan that he announced on Friday. He said he needed a business meeting with his partner, but they're emailing each other every day and see each other at least once a week at work anyway so seemed a bit weird to give up a weekend day for this.

I've emailed him a couple of times this morning but not got a reply, but have had a text from him.

Am I reading too much in to nothing here? Just seems weird to go to work on a Sunday, text me but not read or reply to emails...?

Good luck op, hope all is ok.

Talkinpeace · 17/03/2013 20:18

and if he and his business partner are actually brainstorming spreadsheets, laptops in hand with black coffee on tap ?

GirlOutNumbered · 17/03/2013 20:19

Would he maybe tell porkies if he wants to get pissed for st Patrick's day? Some men are such cowards and can't just say, look I want to go out with friends and get drunk!
Mind you on second thoughts, she said there is a restaurant booked.... That doesn't sound like drunken fun.

How are you, OP?

milf90 · 17/03/2013 20:22

Good luck op!

" wearing a condom suit passing out free condoms to hotel guests "

I hope you do / dont find what you are looking for TD. I cant see a good ending to this as either way pretty much all trust is gone.

If he was intending to go for drinks 'on a school night' as its Paddys day then why not just ask or tell TD "Look , I am going for a Paddys day drink with some guys from work , it will be a late one so we are going to do a few hours work beforehand as we wont be in on monday morning as we will be in bed doing smelly farts and moaning that we drank too much" , then fair enough.

If your gut is saying otherwise then there probably is something odd going on .

Good luck OP. X

JaquelineHyde · 17/03/2013 20:33

I hope everything is ok op and that you get some kind of answers from your trip out tonight even though they may not be the answers you want.

SpottyTeacakes · 17/03/2013 20:40

I hope OP feels she can come back for support Sad

fuzzpig · 17/03/2013 20:43

His behaviour sounds really suspicious. I can't imagine DH vehemently turning down a child-free evening in a hotel with his wife (even in preference to a st Patrick's day piss up - but then he doesn't really do 'nights out' anyway TBF) - wouldn't most busy/stressed parents jump at the chance?

Anyway I'm late to this thread but hope everything's ok :(

Saffra · 17/03/2013 20:49

Oh my word, feeling anxious on OP's behalf. Hope everything is ok.

roastednut · 17/03/2013 20:52

Please come back and let us know what happened op. You've had a lot of support here and people are worried about you.

MammaTJ · 17/03/2013 21:08

I rather think the OP will be dealing with whatever the situation is right now and too busy to come back and update us as yet.

Yfronts · 17/03/2013 21:09

I'd do exactly the same as you - wig and all. Hope it's not what you suspect!

Cannierelax · 17/03/2013 21:27

Op, are you okay? I hate to think of you alone at this moment, when you came on here for support.

Happydotcom · 17/03/2013 21:46

Good luck OP Thanks

TallDwarf · 17/03/2013 21:57

Well I went, saw him strut in with his arm round her waist looking oh so fucking smug. He didn't recognise me till after I slapped him.

I'm home now, MIL has got ds for the night so I plan on getting very drunk and falling asleep crying :( I do appreciate the concern but I don't think I'll come back to this thread. I just need to deal with RL for now :(
