thank you both. I know he's been so stressed at work. he needs to wind down too. All i wanted was him to talk to me for 10 minutes or so. not asking much at all surely?

He apologised to me earlier for ignoring me all eve yesterday. was so sorry he'd upset me. wished he could help more etc... then he does it again tonight!

I really dont begrudge him going out and drinking. Its just under the current circumstances, I cant be with him every day, i cant have him here to help me, or to help me feel better, all I have is conversation on the phone. Is that really expecting too much? really? I'm beginning to think it is. how bloody disappointing.

sorry again

fedda · 15/01/2008 23:12

I think you can. To start with, we have our kids - that's a real blessing. our DHs can be nice on occasions. If they were always rotten we wouldn't stay with them. We all found this forum and it's so nice to talk and see how many of us feel that way.

fedda · 15/01/2008 23:14

Please, don't be sorry. I hope everything will be so much better tomorrow

just remember why you got together in the first place and the long distance relationship is not going to last forever.

I know. I just adore him and love him so much. It really poleaxes me when he treats me like this. I dont understand it. It is so selfish, and i cannot understand selfish behaviour, ever. He knows its the one thing that really really drives me to distraction. I feel so unhappy. not felt like this in a very very long while.

Need to get a bit closer to old weight to feel remotely attractive but breast feeding and ravenous,any good fat loss plans save slimfast or hard drugs?

susiecutiemincepies · 15/01/2008 23:38

hiya helly. of course you can.

Just maybe joined in at a bit of an emotional time for me. so not up to much chat tonight. have a browse further back through the thread and you will get a good idea of what we're up to, and how we do it!

i'm no expert but i do think your pain is making everything worse for you.i think a big cuddle of your other half would make it all better and thats why you are relying on his phonecall to see you through.he'll be home again soon chicken.just keep that in your mind.when you've hugged ,kissed and made up you can kick his shins really hard for being a mid-week wanker

hellymelly · 15/01/2008 23:49

Have read bit more closely and susie sorry things are so horrible,don't feel I know enough history to comment other than why is it always men who are that selfish? I am lucky as have very kind husband ,but he is unusual! Katy have thought of weight watchers but made me feel so middle aged! I am middle aged but in denial.Also in denial that can no longer eat cake like half starved hog and not get even fatter.Susie hope you feel better soon.

susiecutiemincepies · 15/01/2008 23:52

I dont think he will be home this weekend, He's very good at 'having to work weekends' when he;s been like this. I'd put money on him not coming home. He does bury his head in the sand all the time. Rather than face me being unhappy, as a result of his behaviour.
he has mild aspergers, and is mostly effected emotionally. He cannot read emotions too well, including his own. He finds it difficult to realize that i'm upset, unless i'm in front of him, usually it even takes tears for him to realize. he cannot cope with tears though, so its a vicious circle. I have to be quite descriptive and graphic about how i'm feeling most of the time, so he understands. Not that it makes much difference very often. frustrating to say the least.

Nothing i can do about it, any of it. just waiting for the morphine to start working so I might get some pain relief and therefore some sleep.

Hey Helly don't worry about the age. I'm borderline Grandmotherhood. (well I could be, two of the kids are older than I was when I first fell pregnant). 44 years old. And some days feeling really frumpy and other days feeling less frumpy, stressed, harrased, etc. etc. (about 4 days a year) . But because of Mumsnet and this bunch of crazy loon's Ive managed to kick the Anti D's.

MrsFish · 16/01/2008 08:18

Hi Hellymelly looks like I missed out on some chatter last night due to going to bed at 9.30
