Silent treatment again!

Really fed up of my bf being an ass and doing this. We split for 3 months and I stupidly got back together 6 weeks ago. He started an argument with me last week saying I'm a shit driver etc when I mentioned I text a friend and said hello to a man. I've told him I do not wish to discuss car related things with him here on out and now he's ignoring me. I've said it's his call if he wants to play this game but he won't be hearing from me again as its ridiculous. He has my spare car key! Just sick of his EA.

Just to clarify did not text when driving I mentioned as I opened car door I text a friend earlier that day in the canteen. He does silent treatment all the time despite me telling him it's abusive.

Dump him again; mistake getting back together

Bin him.

Life with a sulker would be torture.

Yes it is abusive and he's not going to change. Get your spare car key back off him and then do yourself a massive favour and ditch him.

Run for the hills op this will never get better

Are you not allowed to text a friend in his eyes then? Did you say hello to a man in front of him, or do you like to tell him stuff you know he would get unreasonably jealous over for some reason?

TheSpikySpinosaurus · 26/09/2023 12:38

Get your spare car key back then dump him.

He's shit and you deserve better.

Number is a mutual friend I've not seen in years. He promised for months he'd give me her number and wouldn't but managed to get from another friend. It was seconds after I told him he flipped.

Man was a colleague who passed us both and we said hello. Ex to be accused me of flirting anytime I talk to anyone male.

Jesus wept OP this is just too much hard work.

Let him sulk, alone, without you forever.

Get you car key back first listen to his tirade about how you are the world's worse person, then politely say, yeah this isn't working for me, wish you all the best etc so long.

It used to make me so anxious but his pattern is so predictable now. If he doesn't post car keys by Friday I'll ask non emergency police for advice as i am well and truly done. He's very bitter about everything. He's in the process of losing his job, has history of falling out with every boss, every partner etc and he's nearly 50! Time to grow up!
