I was an office cleaner and i would wash their mugs with the cloth i used to clean the toilets, the people there were so rude.

@kindleandcake This happened to a cyclist friend of mine recently. Police were treating it as sexual assault.

@tellycontroller I'm cuddled up with my teddy too and I'm mid 30s

I genuinely believe my mind is going. I used to be really clever and in some ways I still am but I make more and more stupid mistakes no matter how hard I try. Doctors just say it's down to Fibro but I can see it getting worse. My job is simple and easy - hardly the glittering career I looked likely to have when I was younger. I don't know how long I can keep going in it though and I already feel worthless, if I have to go down another step job wise I think it will break me.

binglebong I'm late 20s and have fibro and had to leave my for all accounts very basic job as even it was impossible with my fibro and memory :( hugs to you

I dated a man with a fetish for a particular item of clothing, wore those items and went along with some of his quite frankly bizarre fantasies. That bit isn’t really the secret as I’ve told a couple of people about it. I guess the secret part is that I enjoyed it much more than I’ve ever let on.

btw loving your username. just started rewatching FDN from s1 the other day.
so funny

While we are admitting things, I cried at the FND reunion [/quote]
I almost cried at it too. I thought Paul Ritter was a brilliant actor and it was so sad to see how ill he was

@Namechange199x

I used to sleep with my ex’s brother. There was actually a day when I slept with both in one day. Simon in the early morning and George in the midnight.. Oh these were the times…in the 90s …wild and free….
Yep I did that too :-) Then married one brother who I cheated on pretty much from the wedding. He later started an affair with his mate's wife whilst I met a younger man on early internet dating. ExDH and I had a horrible divorce but I still miss him. Looking back I had some serious mental health issues and all crave now is stability and love.

I still suck my thumb and I'm 49!!

bagelbaby · 04/06/2021 22:29

I make myself sick after most of my meals. Im 59

Holothane · 04/06/2021 22:30

Two weeks ago I fell ill but just before that I was so fed up of dh moaning being grumpy about everything just feeling crap, (very long story) having been ill for a week then a week to get over it he now realises just how much I do has got better so hopefully will last.

Froppysue · 04/06/2021 22:31

@RicherThanYew that’s actually really sweet, and a much healthier was of dealing with grief than a lot of people. Do you treat is as being a collector (like certain types of lol doll, or the rarer ones) or do you just get the ones that you like? I love that your dh is supportive too. I collect Funko pops, I try to pretend they’re for dd but really I like them just as much and have my own little secret collection.

@Lovingtheglitter me too Blush

wildthingsinthenight · 04/06/2021 22:32

RicherThanYew
You're extremely brave and I understand why you are doing your collecting. I hear you. Sending love Flowers

wildthingsinthenight · 04/06/2021 22:33

Also have just googled Cutito Burritos. Love them! Smile

Beardie03 · 04/06/2021 22:35

@RicherThanYew

Seeing as some people here were incredibly brave I figure I can be too. I'm 30ish and my parents, sibling and unborn baby all died quite close together, it hit me like a sledgehammer. Since the last bereavement last year I have been buying myself (kids) toys to cheer myself up and now I have an entire room FULL of toys. I absolutely love them all and they make me happy, I have a particular soft spot for LOL dolls but I've recently discovered cutito burritos. My husband fully supports my madness because he's fabulous but I'm worried that my head is fucked.
I bought my dd one of those burrito teddies. So flippin cute!
Beardie03 · 04/06/2021 22:35

Sorry to hear about your losses

RiderGirl · 04/06/2021 22:36

Many years ago, after I split with my abusive alcoholic ex, I had the most amazing naughty shagathon night with his best friend. It was the best sex I ever had in my life although I wouldn't tell anyone that, literally no one knows about it. I drive past him nearly every day when I'm out and about and it still makes me smile, it was nearly 20 years ago 😊

Ingridla · 04/06/2021 22:36

I'm still crushing on Dave at work despite leaving 8 years ago

dyslek · 04/06/2021 22:43

@Wineat5isfine

That I feel so bloody useless at the moment, that i think my DH and DC would be better off without me.
I absolutely guarantee they wont be.
Swishswash88 · 04/06/2021 22:46

I cry every night because I miss my ex boyfriend so much. I haven’t told anyone 😢

SarahBellam · 04/06/2021 22:46

When my marriage ended I embarked on a rebound relationship with a stone cold textbook narcissist for 2 years. If it wasn’t for Mumsnet chat threads I’d never have realised that I wasn’t going mad, that I was being gaslit, and it gave me the courage to leave, block, and move on. Thank you, Mumsnet vipers

FunnysInLaJardin · 04/06/2021 22:47

That I wish genuine harm to those who have been cruel to me. I don't want to wait for karma

YesIReallyDoLikeRootBeer · 04/06/2021 22:47

When I was a teen a friend and I were over another friends house. She was in the shower and we were hanging out in the kitchen. Some how (dont remember what we were doing) we dropped their roll of tin foil and it rolled across the kitchen. We grabbed it and rolled it back up (if you have ever tried to reroll tin foil you know how badly that turns out). We then shoved it to the back of the pantry. Many days later our friend (who we had not told what happened) told us her mother found the tin foil and asked us if we did it. We never admitted it to anyone. Now as an adult I feel bad about it, but as a teen I thought it was hilarious.

vodkaredbullgirl · 04/06/2021 22:51

I'm having 1 of those night shifts where I could sit in a corner and rock lol

Anotherlovelybitofsquirrel · 04/06/2021 22:53

@supersop60 me too 

@Mmmcheese89 I'm so sorry you were attacked.
