I was texting my fiancé last night and he kept disappearing as in going off line , I decided to go because I was getting tired and I am a grumpy so and so when I am tired. I did get the impression that he didn’t want to talk to me at the time .Well a friend texted me and asked for some advice so we chatted,I was curious so I noticed my fiancé was on line for a whole hour after we said goodnight. I asked him if he was talking to someone whilst talking/texting me , he told me I wasn’t a detective . I said I’m not playing detective I just asked a question . I asked him if he was a criminal and he said no why question him like that , I said I asked a question and you didn’t answer he said …why would I? and then asked me whats the point. I said I was just asking if you were talking to someone at the same time and he said what if I was. what’s the bloody point. he was like way to go with the trust, you come at me like I have something to answer for . I said now you are acting like you do . At that point he said goodnight.
Now I’m not sure how to approach this as I was cheated on in the past and feel a bit sensitive ?? I do trust my partner but him answering the way he did has left me with this sinking feeling like he’s trying to hide something from me . Oh, he’s really big on honesty but he’s not averse to deliberately leaving stuff out.
What do you think? what would you do ?
Thank you all in advance for your time and comments. xJanuary 2, 2016 at 1:05 am #91163k8tyBParticipantHe was an hour late for dinner on Thursday night, he didn’t apologise or offer an explanation and when I asked why he just said …I thought you said dinner was going to be late anyway.
January 2, 2016 at 7:43 am #91166InkyParticipantHi k8tyB,
I don’t know how old you two are, but I would definitely not get married yet. The reason being once you’re married, the rest of your life will be “Where are you? When are you coming home? What are you doing?” Not in a nit-picky way, but just so you can function in your life!
At first blush it sounds like he was doing something utterly dumb (playing World of War Craft for example) and he would rather not admit it to you! Yes, he could have been talking to someone else, but it’s just as likely that he was doing something else online OR he just wanted a few hours to unplug and chill out.
If that is his attitude, then he is too young or not ready to be married.
I would lay off him for a week or so. But if he does this again, that is his nature, and you should have The Talk. The “Let’s Get Married When you Are Grown” one.
Best,
Inky

I tend to be suspicious, pessimistic and think of the worst AND I believe that many people do and will “live up” to my pessimistic expectations of them. I mean, it happened and keeps happening all over. When I am optimistic about a particular person, I make and exception for them.
So… his being online for an hour after you said goodnight, I would ask him too. And I would be suspicious as well of the answer. If he was talking to his sister for example, why wouldn’t he tell you that? Why not just SAY what it is he was doing?
IF in the past he told you he was talking to a family member and you condemned him for that, or if he told you he was doing something non threatening to you in reality, but you blamed him for it, then I would understand his reaction. Otherwise.. suspect!

January 3, 2016 at 4:02 pm #91217k8tyBParticipantHi Inky , thank you for your reply . I’m definitely not going to get married soon as I really don’t want to be the nagging …”where are you ?” “what are you doing?” kind of wife . He said the question was inappropiate, untrusting and out of order and didn’t deserve an answer to which I said that I didn’t agree. He said if I come at him the way I did by saying he blatantly refused to answer the question he won’t tell me who he was talking to and what it was about. He also said calling him blatant made it seem as if he was doing something wrong.
I must say that I went out for half an hour after trying to talk to him yesterday and when I got back he was better and started saying he was on the phone with a friend overseas. The whole thing left a very sour taste in my mouth and I didn’t quite believe him then??
I know right Anita !!! why not just SAY, I really didn’t expect the reaction I got which leaves me feeling rather suspicious and i really, really dislike that feeling 🙁
And Kaye thank you xJanuary 3, 2016 at 4:27 pm #91222k8tyBParticipantI think we will be having ” The Talk ” 🙂
