My boyfriend has blocked my number...

gaynor83 · 06/08/2018 16:11

We’ve been together since Christmas. Had a lot of ups and downs since then, mainly because he has some issues, mentally and with drugs. Every time he takes drugs he becomes really paranoid and accuses me of cheating.
Yet he is the one who stays out all night sometimes and he’s “waved” at his ex on Facebook, as well as deleting messages from her and another girl on there. He says he does these things to get my attention..hmm.
He’s blocked my number before and he knows it really upsets and it makes me run after him.
He lost his driving licence recently and I know it’s depressed him. I’ve been trying to cheer him up and was going to drive us on a day out yesterday. He wouldn’t get out of bed and said he couldn’t be bothered. So I left him there and went out by myself. Whilst I was out he rang and I was eating so didn’t answer. When I rang him back he had blocked me.
So I drove to his house to see him and he didn’t say sorry or anything, so I left. He says he loves me but why would he behave like this?
I had a big thing happening today too and he didn’t even text to wish me luck. Feel miserable about it all.

Sorry but he sounds like an immature dick. What exactly are his good points?

Emma765 · 06/08/2018 16:13

Sounds exhausting and really not worth your time. I recommend moving on.

HuckfromScandal · 06/08/2018 16:13

Well you’ve had a lucky escape.
Count your blessings and move on.
Why would you want to be with someone who

  • does drugs
  • treats you like shit
  • blocks you randomly
Cricrichan · 06/08/2018 16:13

Without a shadow of a doubt, please leave him.

Frosty6611 · 06/08/2018 16:14

He sounds like a twat. Feeling depressed isn’t a green light to treat your partner like shit. Why are you with him? How old is he?

Mookatron · 06/08/2018 16:15

Oof, exhausting. Seriously, all the advice is going to be 'dump him'. Why wouldn't you?

Singlenotsingle · 06/08/2018 16:15

Oh, just get away from this loser. Life's too short! Drugs are bad news. He can fuck his own life up, but what gives him the right to fuck yours up as well?

FuckPants · 06/08/2018 16:15

Leave him, you can do better.

GodivaEater · 06/08/2018 16:15

Wouldn’t you rather be with someone who makes you happy and actually is WITH you? This isn’t a relationship.

letsdolunch321 · 06/08/2018 16:16

Dump his pathetic arse now.

What kind of man blocks your number because you were eating and unable to answer your phone.

Find yourself a normal fella not one into drugs.

Good luck

Hogtini · 06/08/2018 16:18

Count your lucky stars and walk away from this idiot.

YaLoVeras · 06/08/2018 16:20

Don't waste your energy trying to cheer him up!!!

Was he worthy of all of that energy?

hellsbellsmelons · 06/08/2018 16:21

Why oh why oh why?
Seriously. Read back your OP.
He's an absolute loser.
Block him so you aren't tempted to contact him and move on.
There is no future with a drug addict.
Plain and simple.
And he would be a terrible role model for any kids.
Keep him dumped.
Ignore, block, delete.

Counselling for you to understand why on this earth you put up with such a dick-head!

freetoagoodhome · 06/08/2018 16:23

He says he loves me but why would he behave this way?

Because he doesn't. Not at all. I'd tell you to get rid, but you've been told that plenty of times before, so... good luck.

gaynor83 · 06/08/2018 16:23

I suppose it’s cos he is loving when things are going well. He’s good looking, intelligent and usually fun to be around. But definitely has some bad traits as well. Well this time I haven’t ran after him. I’m tired of it now. Tending to agree dumping is the way. I’ve tried to help him but he doesn’t help himself. I can only think that is the reason for him blocking me, it’s all I can think of, and wouldn’t put it past him.

hellsbellsmelons · 06/08/2018 16:25

He’s good looking, intelligent
He's not intelligent - he takes drugs.
That is not big or clever.

You want to save him. That's your issue here.
You CANNOT save him!
He's an asshole. That will never change.
Keep him dumped.
You deserve so so much better and you know it.

GreenFingersWouldBeHandy · 06/08/2018 16:28

I'd suggest you block him on everything and move on. He sounds about 15.

Bananalanacake · 06/08/2018 16:30

Don't waste your time with a drug user. Please tell me has a job and doesn't sponge off anyone.

Burntofferings0 · 06/08/2018 16:31

gaynor you really do have such low standards. Why do you think you deserve a man like this? There is blokes out there that are actually nice, normal human beings that don’t behave like this.

He sounds like he likes playing games with you - which is actually really fucking boring.

lifebegins50 · 06/08/2018 16:31

When you read this back does it seem healthy to you? Nothing will change and no way will his good points outweigh his bad.

Good looks fade, especially if he does drugs so you will be left with an instable person

NynaeveSedai · 06/08/2018 16:32

I'm sorry but if you don't block him back and move on with your life you're a fool

MellowMelly · 06/08/2018 16:32

I think you’ll find that this guy will always have ongoing issues which you’ll never be able to fix/heal/help with.

I’d get out now before you get in too deep.

Juneonthewestcoast · 06/08/2018 16:33

These aren't the actions of a guy who cares about and values you! You'll be better off by yourself without him dragging you down and making you anxious. He might well be depressed but that doesn't excuse his babyish behavior. Have you been together long?

IDontEatFriedTurtle · 06/08/2018 16:34

Leave him, you can do better.

A Tesco bag full of dried leaves with sticky bobble eyes would and a sharpie mouth would be a bit of an improvement on the current situation.

dirtybadger · 06/08/2018 16:35

If he has problematic drug use, you need to end things. Whether he treats you well or not (he doesnt).
