Interested to hear things people really wish they could say in real life, but can't, for whatever reason.

This is a safe space..... let's offload!!

No, my DF was not a "good father". Please, DM, do not rewrite history. He didn't speak to me for six years because I was a single parent, he was an alcoholic who had affairs and he never had a single conversation with any of his children. Just because he's dead, we have to pretend to keep you happy.

Screaming kids are only pleasant to listen to if they are your own. Have some respect for the neighbours and keep them indoors more.

Don't eat cake and chocolate every day and then moan that you're fat.

You cannot be a real man if you have xx chromosomes.

I think everyone who voted for Brexit is a thick fucking idiot Yep, me too. What on earth were you thinking of? And if when the country goes to pot, if you voted leave you need to stick your hand up and be the ones to go without food and medicine.

If my relative's constant deliveries of tablets and medical supplies are interrupted they will die.

kayakingmum · 10/12/2018 22:29

I can't think of anything, but have enjoyed reading the comments. I don't know why.

playinthedarkness · 10/12/2018 22:31

You are a thoughtless,selfish woman and I cried when you decided to stay here and not move closer to one of your other children. we never get a break and our marriage is teetering because he's trying so hard to be a good son, he's prioritising you over our family and you see nothing wrong with that. In fact you delight in your position.

NotScrewingUpNow · 10/12/2018 22:31

I'm only staying for DD!!!

VictoriaBun · 10/12/2018 22:33

I love you but you are boring. Please don't tell me about all your work colleagues lives - I don't care. Not that they are all tossers - I don't care. And please when you are doing diy - just do it and don't spend months talking about it when you have already fucked it up.

C8H10N4O2 · 10/12/2018 22:50

I often feel a quite irrational urge to say "its always twins".

MissCherryCakeyBun · 10/12/2018 22:53

I want to ask you to marry me but I'm too scared.....your ex wife hurt you so much that you swore you would never marry again.
I just need that commitment that piece of paper that promise

winteryslippers · 10/12/2018 23:06

You didn't imagine things
I'm sorry I made you believe that
Please don't leave me, it meant nothing
I will spend my life making it up to you

helpingvsdoinghomework · 10/12/2018 23:10

I hate both my SIL... and their children (except one of them!!)

WaterBird · 10/12/2018 23:18

To ex: "We are not "friends." We are a "fucking mess."

WaterBird · 10/12/2018 23:19

Agree with the idea of "Yes, I am free to do this, but I just don't WANT to!"

Extrastout · 10/12/2018 23:21

I'm scared.

WaterBird · 10/12/2018 23:22

Oh and to two of my friends:
"It didn't work the first time and you're still having problems this time around. You'd be much better off with someone else."
"Don't fall for the "I don't know what I want" crap."

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 10/12/2018 23:24

God SO MANY where to start :

M

I love you and I don't think I'll ever stop, but I know reuniting with you is just a fantasy in the dark, so wherever you are, I hope you are loved, always.

G

You'd have what you always wanted if you hadn't lied.

J

I don't miss you and I don't think I want to be your friend anymore. You let me down. That's why I don't call. I'm not sorry and I wish you were, but even if you were it's too late.

B

You should've been sacked for what you did and you really owe the manager one. I don't trust you and I can't respect you and there's no way in hell we'll be working together til retirement as you so boldly hoped.

M

I wish we could come to an amicable understanding that though we are related we only need to pass pleasantries on formal occasions and once the older generation goes we need never lay eyes on each other again. It would be I think, a tremendous relief to us both

E

We don't know each other, we never met. He is gone now, and you should move on because the great man you revere in your heart was hiding a black secret that I can never tell you and take away from your precious falsehood of The Last Good Man

Bullnoway · 10/12/2018 23:26

A real friend would have publically supported me. You let me down. It only happens once - I’ll never forget. (And you can forget me taking your kids to school next time you’ve got no childcare.)

DeusEx · 10/12/2018 23:27

You aren’t a good friend. You make me feel like shit.

I hate you.

WaterBird · 10/12/2018 23:27

Love "The Last Good Man"

TisConfusion · 10/12/2018 23:30

I can't fucking stand you, you are SO loud. We can hear everything. You only moved in a couple of months back and it's been hell since.

DeusEx · 10/12/2018 23:31

I really wish Remoaners would shut up. I wish we could have proper political debate in this country.

gamerchick · 10/12/2018 23:31

It's not irrational.

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 10/12/2018 23:31

@WaterBird

Thanks I knew something terrible about someone who died suddenly. Watching him be posthumously beatified was quite surreal.

Siwdmae · 10/12/2018 23:32

Just fucking stay sober for one day, just one fucking day so I don't regret spending stupid amounts to see the family over Christmas. Just one day. Please don't spoil it like you spoil every other event. You'll never see me again at Christmas if you fuck up.

BoswellandForshort · 10/12/2018 23:34

Please get in touch again. I want to see you so badly. I need to know how you feel about our last meeting.
