I am so so so sick of his calls, over and over again

I am with my partner a number of years. We work opposite schedules to each other so a lot of the time we are like passing ships.

I had a call from him yesterday morning and again yesterday evening. I took those calls. Then at about 9.30 at night my mother who I suspect might be getting dementia, asked me to do a job for her on the Internet. It's never an easy task with her and it could go on for hours. I actually think about suicide when I sit down with my mother because that appeals to me for a break.
At 9.45 pm last night I got a call from my partner but I was too busy to take it. I had intentions of phoning him back. He rang me back at 10 but again I was jot finished with my mother. It was about 10.45pm last night by the time I was finished with my mother and I had a banging headache at that stage. I was thinking about getting into bed to get up in the morning for my job but I was so busy doing jobs. So I continued doing jobs. I got 2 more calls after that from my partner. I was so busy. I was cooking food for my lunch and I wasn't feeling well either. I had intentions of phoning him back but that didn't happen. It wasn't intentionally to ignore him and I wasn't ignoring him. I was busy.

I hate this from him. If I picked up last night I know him like that back of my hand he would have nothing to say or ask except how I am. Surely when I missed his first and his second call he could presume how I am and presume I am busy. I hate this from him. He seems to think because I have the day off I am sitting down and doing nothing when that's not the case at all. It was 1.30 in the morning by the time I got to bed last night.

I was getting ready for work this morning and breaking my back and my ass trying to get out the door to work and get to work and the same thing happened again this morning. Three more calls from him. My phone was in the bed and then it was in my back buried under my lunch and under belongings for the day.

I am so sick of it. Its call after call after call as if I am doing no3but sitting down with the phone in my hand just waiting for his calls.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.
We see that you are getting some great support from your fellow Mumsnetters and hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources.
You can also go to the Samaritans website, or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.
We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.
Wishing you the very best 💐.
