DH has gone missing

Name changed for this as I don't want this attached to my usual name.

Long story short DH (and his friend) has gone missing and I have no idea what to do!

He went out to friends on Sunday evening around 6. He called at 9ish said he was staying out but would be home approx 10am Monday morning.
All fine as he didn't have work etc etc.
I had a message from his friend st around 2pm Monday saying that DHs phone has died and that DH is really sorry he is late but he'll be home by tea time.
Since then no one has seen or heard from DH or his friend.
I've checked the police custody suite, hospitals, as many friends that I can think of and been round to friends house but obviously no one was there.
I'm worried sick, I can't sleep, can't eat and my anxiety is only letting me think the worst has happened.

I know this is about ranty, sorry for that! I just needed to talk about how scared I am. Can anyone think of a logical explanation to where they could have got to? I need abit of hope that he's okay! Sad

"Hear something" damn phone!

Theresomethingaboutdairy · 16/06/2016 09:55

What a nightmare OP, I can't even begin to imagine what you are going through. I hope you hear something soon.

rainbowstardrops · 16/06/2016 09:56

Hopefully you'll get some answers today whether it's news that he turned up for work or that the police entered friend's house (Would/could they do that on the first visit?)
Thinking of you OP Flowers

SmallLegsOrSmallEggs · 16/06/2016 09:57

It won't be CO.

As said first night absence was planned and accpunted for.

They were obviously up to something that they were thinking would take another half day at least.

Perhaps now he has been out so long he is too chicken to return?
Or he is monumentally thoughtless or irresponsible.

Has friend also been reported missing? Perhaps he has contacts/family who might know where to look.

Do you have anyway of checking if DHs phone has been switched on? E.g. whatsapp? Findmyphone?

Sorry OP. This must be awful for you.

Just wanted to say I don't believe in the Manchester pusher, was just trying to clarify earlier comments.

I hope he's been on some kind of bender and comes home soon, suitably mortified at his behaviour.

OP you must be out of your mind. Do you have support?

Titsalinabumsquash · 16/06/2016 10:06

Op, how worrying! I hope they find him.

StealthPolarBear · 16/06/2016 10:06

Has anyone reported the friend missing?

MassiveStrumpet · 16/06/2016 10:07

Has he showed up for work?

MorrisZapp · 16/06/2016 10:07

Yes, the friend must have workmates and family? What do they say?

KittensandKnitting · 16/06/2016 10:10

Unless he has actually died he is a selfish twat for doing this to you, and I hope you kill him when he returns. I doubt it's carbon monoxide poising because of the way they called/text on Monday it's more likely a massive case of selfish wanker syndrome. Unless he has a drug/alcohol problem I think it's very much more likely its of the selfish wanker syndrome variety. I would try calling his phone with 141 in front of his number or from a different phone in case his blocked you and I would have broken into friends house by now.

My ex-partners actually dad, did this to his mother. Turned out he needed a "break" walked out and went to Spain for two weeks, didn't tell anyone, didn't leave a note, didn't call, selfish idiot returned two weeks later with a tan and a stupid hat as a gift. Couldn't see what he did wrong at all.

Why she didn't divorce him then and there I will never know.

MewlingQuim · 16/06/2016 10:10

How worrying. I hope he turns up soon.

Suckituplady · 16/06/2016 10:11

I hope he has turned up safe and sound at work.

TendonQueen · 16/06/2016 10:21

I also know of someone who went off and stayed away for a couple of weeks. Stupid behaviour. He should at least contact you.

What have the police actually done? Have they been to the place they were last seen?

ExasperatedAlmostAlways · 16/06/2016 10:26

I hope he turns up soon. Have you posted on Facebook and asked everyone to share it. Seems to be quite a good way of reaching lots of friends etc who he may be partying with (hopefully) who you are unaware of. It sounds like he's gone on a bender tbh since him and the other guy are together.

JinRamen · 16/06/2016 10:26

How worrying, hope he is ok Flowers

MumOnTheRunCatchingUp · 16/06/2016 10:28

Not sure if already mentioned .... And this is a total shot in the dark..... Just wondering how 'friends' they are? Possibly both gay and gone away together?

Prob way off the mark here

loobyloo1234 · 16/06/2016 10:31

Op - does he have his passport? Apologies if this has been asked already?

Magpie18 · 16/06/2016 10:34

Thinking of you OP and hoping you get answers soon.

member · 16/06/2016 10:38

Will the police do a welfare check at the friend's address as first step?

PurpleThursday · 16/06/2016 10:42

Hope he's turned up at work and you are getting some answers OP, your head must be all over the place Confused

Lillygolightly · 16/06/2016 10:46

My gosh OP you must be out of your mind with worry. It's is terrible sitting and waiting for news and the hours pass so slowly. I hope you hear something soon, and I hope it is good news.

Thinking of you Flowers

Ginkypig · 16/06/2016 10:52

Wether you believe this or not stop troll hunting because if it turns out to real just think for one second how this woman must be feeling!

ICanSeeForMiles · 16/06/2016 10:58

I've got anxiety OP and can only imagine what you're going through. Hope he turns up safe and well shortly Flowers Brew

IveAlreadyPaid · 16/06/2016 11:01

How awful and worrying for you. Hope you get answers soon.
