I can't get hold of OH

Becklarrr, 30 November, 2012 at 14:11 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 18

☹️

He hasn't texted me all morning or rung me at lunch like usual. He is working (police officer) but he always rings me at lunch or if he can't he will text me say he is ok and some ? stuff but he hasn't today.

I have texted him twice and rung him and still not heard anything. I'm getting worried.

    Could his battery have died on his phone?

    Maybe there's been some mega emergency somewhere that he's working with.

    I'm the same when I can't get hold of OH, I worry (not sure why).

    Let us know when you hear from him ?

    His phone rang when I left a voicemail so the battery hasn't died.

    Maybe he has left his phone in his locker or something?

    Im sure he will be fine, try not to worry too much as it will make time go so much slower until you hear from him.

    Remember 'No news is good news' Thats the only thing that kept me from climbing the wall when the OH was in Afghan and Iraq.

    He could have lost his phone. I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation, try not to worry. Smiley smile

    Try not to worry, I'm sure there's a very reasonable excuse.

    I know how easy it is to worry. My hubby drives on the M1 every day and every time there's an accident I worry it might be him. Crazy, I know, considering there's like 10,000 other cars on the same road.

    What all the others have said - it's likely he's just busy busy. My Son IL is a policeman and I worry about him all the time. It's that sort of job. Bet he never thinks I've trapped myself in the photocopier.

    Let us know when you hear from him.

    I wouldn't worry too much, if H's Dad is on duty he often has to ignore his phone, especially if he has an emergency. Sending well wishes your way.

    Heard from him now! He has had 3 different RTCs to attend today because of the ice so wasn't able to answer his phone as was dealing with traffic etc!

    Phew! Panic over. Thank you ladies for your kind words of reassurance ?

    OH laughed at me for panicking so much, but i said at least it shows i care!

    As a fellow police officer's wife I completely understand your fears Becklarr but I'm sure it's nothing.

    There are plenty of times where H can't answer his phone for hours if he's doing a lengthy statement etc.

    Glad he's ok, I'm always worried when I don't here from OH when I'm supposed to, he never seems to worry when he doesn't here from me though! lol

    Ahh glad he's ok.
    I do worry about mine sometimes too, he normally emails me as soon as he gets to work but sometimes he gets in and its too busy and he ends up invovled in something before he gets a chance.

    After an hour or so I often catch myself worrying that he's had an epileptic seizure and not made it to work, but I try and remind myself sometimes it just can't be helped.

    I don't know what I'd do if I didn't hear from him all day though...thankfully he's never left me hanging too long. My worst nightmare would be coming home not knowing what I'd find...sorry to derail.

    I've just read this with a knowing smile on my face, I'm a copper's wife too, and I hate not being able to get hold of H at a time i would normally hear from him. It normally only really worries me at night though, but I know how you feel!
