Mumsnet mafia ??!!!

True - But as you say we only know their truth - I was really hoping it was a BIG wind up - as the ramifications are too awful to contemplate

I didn't see all of it either yeahinaminute, but I feel reluctant to condemn. This was a situation born out of an online forum, with a car crash outing of the whole thing - if it is true.
To my mind that suggests loneliness & unhappiness and whether the behaviour is right or wrong, to my mind it can only be seen as a desperate cry for something: help, love, companionship. I really don't know, but definitely not the actions of people who are secure, happy & know where they are going.

Bugsy - Surely airing their shenanigans on MN before having the decency to tell their partners is cowardly - admittedly it is also sad and bloody miserable for all concerned - but nonetheless it could have been handled with some dignity and privacy if indeed it is true.

Anyway I've missed the full thread and am only going on what I can glean.

Can I also apologise for jumping on you so quickly the other day too?

OO, have CAT'd you.

Agree Fio. I was told a good many things off board, but, since many other things have come to light, I have NO idea what is true and what isnt. There is some general truths at the bottom of this, but it is so buried in bullshit its difficult to see whats what.

I'd love to say more, because I am really quite angry about having been systematically lied to, but, I fear it will only drag this out for another few days.

Oh ffs

Why do I miss everything

I have not been on here since Thursday and know nothing about nothing and I don't want to know and don't want anyone to CAT me with any information whatsoever

so please do not

thanks

It's all very sad.

Its quite possible fimbo.

I don't think they are low-life or cowards. I feel very, very sorry for everyone concerned. It strikes me as the sort of mess that only unhappy people could get themselves into. I don't believe they deserve our condemnation but our sympathy.

Oh - so not a wind up then - how bloody miserable - If I've got this right they have "outed" themselves on MN before having the good grace to speak to their partners and try to be honest and upfront with them - what a bunch of low-life cowards

Not sure if anyone really knows. It was all abit weird lots of stuff came out. I think she had been texting someone else dh too, even before this latest one came out.

Is this the reason why the female split from her dh, or was what happened there true?

Sadly

Very True.

Haven't been on MN since Thursday - and now I'm trying to catch up from these posts and the original one is deleted .... was there a big hoo - hah ?? I think I get the drift - someone who's name is linked to Tikkabilla has been having it off with a male poster and she's up the duff .. Right ?? Is it TRUE or was it a wind up ??

throckenholt....i think you could be onto something, maybe this could be an official MN role for you

wow - I killed it !

If either of them cared what their other halves thought or felt they would have told them themselves - long before any threads were ever started on the net.

It seems that it was not a new situation to either of them.

The "poetry" was a bit over the top - but was a genuine expression of the shock and annoyance at the way the people involved had treated everyone around them. A very sad and sorry situation for anyone touched by it.

Yeah rightly or wrongly I felt pity for him.. but much much more sympathy for his wife. And her husband.

I've got the first thread, and there is no mention of his name until he outs himself! From then on, I think it was fair game for him to be named!

Of course, it is horrid for his wife, but frankly what I think is more horrid is that she might never know what a useless tosser he actually is!

She is one messsed up puppy StG

But its not our problem anymore

Welcome Charlyp & congrats. Thanks to you, I have finally found out who were involved in the Mumsnet affair. I've been here for 6 years & didn't have a clue until it was just spelt out for me here!
Have fun here & get lots of great advice too. It is a great place.

The world is too full of those who truly merit pity to be bothered w/arse wipes w/no self control, respect for others or maturity when they have kids.
