Hi all, I have posted his in AIBU. Another poster advised me to post here to stop me getting a kicking and was curious if a different board would get a different response.

My husband travels a lot for work often travelling for a week at a time but recently has had several early Monday morning meeting which has meant he has left on a Sunday late afternoon. I was at a hens night last night and we stayed the night and it was too far for a cab back. I left the house Saturday, husband waved me off - have fun see you tomorrow ! The B&B we stayed at had no cell reception so I could text him to say we are on our back until about 10:30 when we stopped to get a coffee. By that point phone was really low on charge, I saw 3 messages from him asking if I had a fun night could he call ect ... i quickly messaged back to say all good, was on my way and had no battery. Got back to the house and he is nowhere to been seen and I had no house keys (as He told me he would be home) by this point I had no battery to call him or check my messages. Friend called him straight to voicemail - very weird. Borrowed a phone charger from my neighbour and low a behold I had a text from him. "Ok, well bad news I'm afraid. Don't rush home - I'm at the airport. Realised on Thursday that I was flying today but didn't want to add more upset to your day 😫 " would you complete loose your shit over this ? I had to get a locksmith to get me into the house. (That's not a big deal, it was quick he picked a lock at the back of the house - no change of keys needed) He has hardly spoken to me since, thinks I'm overreacting and it's no big deal. That I'm just pissed off that I didn't have my keys. He was being very evasive, would not take a call nor did he answer the hotel phone at 10:40 last night. As he apparently was in the hotel bar ? This isn't stacking up for me ...... is this normal ?

I also think you need to sit down and talk to him if you're unhappy, not make any rash decisions when he's away.

For what it's worth, whenever either my husband or I have to be somewhere for Monday morning, we usually leave on the Sunday afternoon. It's pretty standard tbh.

I felt exhausted just reading this. The reason you probably see each other as hard work is because of the lack of communication.
Totally agree with elephant, it's standard about Sunday travelling

I think that you absolutely know when your partner values you, and I sense that you are not getting that feeling at the moment OP.

A break is a good idea.
