Firstly, apologies for name change but I have a friend who uses mn who knows my usual username.
I'm posting about my husband, he has started acting strange and I'm not sure if there is something wrong or if he's just trying to wind me up.
About a month ago he started becoming obsessed with windows and doors being closed. His excuse would always be that he didn't want flies coming in but he's never been like that before.
Then there was loads of other wierd behaviour like him getting up in the middle of the night and sneaking around the house. I actually started to think he was having an affair.
The he started celotaping money to things, like 2p would be celotaped to the computer desk or £1 would be celotaped to the wooden floor. Everytime I asked what was going on he just laughed and made out he was trying to wind me up.
Then last week we were sat watching TV and he asked if I ever watched "The Borrowers" when I was a child. I told him I didn't and he said "oh, I was just going to ask what you'd think if you saw loads of little people running around the house". I just laughed and said I'd catch them and sell them on ebay and he laughed really awkwardly and said "its ok, she didn't mean it" at this point I told him to stop acting stupid and he said sorry but then said "no really, how would you react? would you be scared?". I told him to stop going on about stupid stuff and that was that.
About an hour later he said he was coming upstairs to check his email. I followed him up about 5 minutes later with some of DDs clothes to put away and heard DH whispering in our room saying stuff like "I don't know what she'd do, I don't think it's safe yet". So I went in and said "for gods sake, don't you think you're taking it a bit far?" and he jumped up and looked around him quickly and then said "thank god for that" under his breathe as if something had hidden before I went in.
I told him I no longer found the joke funny and that it was freaking me out and I wanted him to stop it. He hasn't mentioned it since but has continued with the windows and doors and celotaping stuff and wandering around the house at night.
I'm actually really worried that there is something wrong with him. He's 37, not stressed as far as I know, no history of acting strange. Is he simply taking the piss?
