You know someone who mutes their partner's messages?

My partner does this when we have an argument or when I don't agree with him.

My parents are coming to Sydney to visit us especially to see all their grandchildren. Last time we saw each other was just before COVID19 so we couldn't travel. I live with my husband and kids in Queensland. Now here's my husband making excuses that we have no money for flights and accommodation, that the money is for the house reno which I don't believe is true. He wants my parents to pay for our accommodation in Sydney. I mean what the hell?! He said if he can't work it out I might have to travel on my own without my girls.

The main purpose of my parents is to see all their children and grandchildren in one location and my husband doesn't want that. He wants my parents to fly here to Queensland so they could spend time with only us and his parents, but of course my parents don't want that.

Now because I said no to his suggestion as it's so impractical, he has muted me on messenger and messaging app. I texted him, but he doesn't want to reply, I rang him, but it just went straight to voicemail.

That’s pretty small of him. Home renos are important, but family comes first!
Hope you get this sorted so things go as planned.

@Quimliqer i don't believe there's anything for the house reno actually. I waited for 2 window blinds to get installed and that took like 5months because of him.

How about If you and him pay the ticket for you, and your parents pay the tickets for the girls?

He's probably muting you while he tries to process and solve this. It might need some time alone.

Wow, you deserve way better than that. Geeze it costs A LOT to fly to Australia, makes sense that your parents want to see you all in one location.

I had a toxic ex that would do things like that, mute, ignore or flat out block me for awhile. So infuriating. 😡

Might be a good time to rethink your plans for a future being married to him. Sounds like a real piece of shit.
Take the children and book a one way flight until his attitude drastically improves.

Even myself if I'm in a mood need time to cool down and just let things go (hugs).

He has serious communication issues that man

That's very selfish and childish. Also seems very controlling and coersive. So sorry you're in this situation. He doesn't seem to have any empathy for your parents, you or your children. 🤗🤗

@OldBrit my family said the same. Thank you so much.

No ...... I don't ,,,

The only time I mute my phone is when I am in a business meeting ..... but I still have it on vibrate ...

Sorry, but yah , that's totally a shitty thing to do, and disrespectful .....I hope you can make him realize that ...

Then you take the girls and leave his ass home

HUGS

He isn't too mature

That’s absolutely ridiculous. You haven’t seen your parents for years and of course they want to see their grandchildren.

I would just take the kids and go if he’s going to be like that.

I take the kids and go
GunFinger · F
@NinaTina i think I'll end up doing that.
OldBrit · 61-69, M
@GunFinger good for you. He needs to see that you're not prepared to put up with this behaviour.

Damn he sounds like some ahole men I know.
SW-User
Jeez, he's a control freak, omg I'm so sorry to hear that 😭
