DH has gone missing

HeadWrecked26 · 16/06/2016 00:47

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

only1scoop which thread????

CockleCockleShell · 16/06/2016 23:09

You said before you can cope and manage without him, OP. You now know how strong you are, and you'll only get stronger x

Paniniswapx3 · 16/06/2016 23:11

Goodness Op, just read your thread - shocking. So sorry for what he's put you through. Focus on yourself & your baby & just take it one day at a time.

MeMySonAndl · 16/06/2016 23:14

I'm sorry to hear things are over but I guess this is the time to have a good rest. Tomorrow will be another day.

LadyStarkOfWinterfell · 16/06/2016 23:16

What happened? Ignore the troll hunters, they are bein out of order and should report and stfu as always.

StickTheDMWhereTheSunDontShine · 16/06/2016 23:16

Dontlaugh - notice I said nothing about the going easy being permanent. I had a family member go missing in the throes of a breakdown. Eventually found sleeping in their car.

Nowt wrong with listen first, bollock later. On the offchance there's no real bollocking needed, then you've spared them (and you) it. Otherwise, you've ended up with all the more reason to bollock them good and proper simply by raising an eyebrow and waiting for the outpouring.

It's all moot, anyhow. Sorry it's not good news for you, headwrecked.

Forevertiredzzzzzz · 16/06/2016 23:17

so sorry OP , what a worry. You have a baby don't need a man child causing you anxiety and vanishing , sounds like you'll be much better off on your own. Hope he's suitably ashamed.

GlitteryFluff · 16/06/2016 23:17

I hope you're ok op Flowers

SouthernComforts · 16/06/2016 23:17

Bloody hell OP, what a week for you Sad

Iwasbornin1993 · 16/06/2016 23:21

Thinking of you, OP Flowers

Dontlaugh · 16/06/2016 23:21

Nowt wrong with listen first, bollock later.
That's all well and good if one is not relying on the person concerned for care, childcare or finances.
I am glad for you your missing person turned up, but the impact of someone missing is huge and often raises other issues. Minimising it doesn't help anyone.

Jaynebxl · 16/06/2016 23:23

So sorry to hear that. I really hoped that somehow it would all work out.

Groovee · 16/06/2016 23:24

Glad you know where he is! I know of a family where a similar thing happened. So I believe the OP.

coco1810 · 16/06/2016 23:26

So glad that he has been found OP, I can't even imagine what you were and are continuing to go through. I hope you have lots of love and support in RL.

I think everyone needs to back off with the whole speculation about whether the cause of this disappearance was due to concussion, drugs or just being an inconsiderate bastard. OP has stated that her marriage may be over. How about a bit of solidarity and support between women? steps off soap box

MarklahMarklah · 16/06/2016 23:27

I'm sorry headwrecked - I had hoped that there would be a happy resolution, or a plausible explanation.
I completely understand that you may not want to share a lot of detail here about what happened. On the plus side, he is alive. On the minus side, there has been some serious damage to the relationship, as your last post shows.

I hope that you are able to get the advice, support and hand-holding you need, whether that be on here or IRL.

ScrambledSmegs · 16/06/2016 23:28

Oh shit Sad. I hope that you have good support.

Blu · 16/06/2016 23:28

So sorry head wrecked .
Dreadful thing to have put you through .

Obeliskherder · 16/06/2016 23:32

Headwrecked, hope you can get some sleep tonight x

wizzler · 16/06/2016 23:33

oh god. At least you know where he is. Good luck

MyLlamasGoneBananas · 16/06/2016 23:34

I'm sorry it's ended up the way it has for you.Flowers

Whisky2014 · 16/06/2016 23:37

Take care of yourself.

PurpleThursday · 16/06/2016 23:38

Oh no. Are you ok OP ? Are you home safe? You don't have to share more details with us if you don't want - but you have a lot of support here Flowers

RedCrimson · 16/06/2016 23:38

Headwrecked you must be absolutely exhausted. I'm glad that you finally know where he is, and at least you can put your mind at rest about where he is. Whatever has happened I hope you stay strong. Sounds like you're extremely pissed off with him if you say your marriage is over. Have you spoken to him?
(((HUGS))) Flowers

VanellopeVonSchweetz99 · 16/06/2016 23:38

My heart breaks for you.
This is abuse almost beyond belief.
Please look after yourself and DC.

HappySpacey · 16/06/2016 23:40

So sorry sweet OP. We are all feeling for you.

You are better off without someone who can do that to yourself and his DC.

The next few days won't be easy either, especially as you are in a desperate state, having hardly eaten or slept, but you will get through it. You are strong. Think Gloria Gaynor.
