@SugarMiceInTheRain

I fancy my best friend. I won't let onto him though. I know I should probably distance myself from the friendship as I'm married but he's been such a support to me and following a suicide attempt by him a couple of years ago he said the only reason he's still here some days is our friendship.
I'd swerve that one.

When I'm driving down a very quiet road and see a lone walker / cyclist , I wonder what it would be like / would you get away with running them over and driving off .
I would 100% never do it , but it goes through my head.

My name is really DAVE

I don't drive, but when I'm walking and I see a cyclist coming towards me I get the brief thought of "what would happen if I push them over into traffic?"

My married friend is having an affair with her best friends husband who is also her husbands best friend. The 4 of them do everything together. Nobody knows but me and neither of them know I know....

osbertthesyrianhamster · 04/06/2021 17:50

I complained about our former GP whose spouse I know in real life and the complaint is going quite far.

When we drive past cyclists, I always want to wind down my window and smack them on their lycra arses. I really have to sit on my hands on this one.

MiriamMargo · 04/06/2021 17:52

I dont really enjoy babysitting my grandkids

@Mmmcheese89

That whilst my life now looks great on the outside I sometimes wish my attacker had killed me 7 years ago.

That I have feelings for Emma (but she'll never know).

So sorry to hear this Flowers

I used to walk into a room with my then DP and wonder where the nearest bed was.
He really was amazing and I was like a drug addict. He admits he should never have cheated. But I always wondered did lots of you feel like this with your DP in your 20's.

I have lots of intrusive thoughts like that!

What a burden to carry. Do you not feel the urge to tell them??
HotChocolateLover · 04/06/2021 18:03

I’m going to be resigning from my dream job in the next couple of weeks because, frankly, I’m just not very good at it. I’ve just been offered something far more suitable, the exact same money (NHS) and I can work from home. Only DH knows, will let my boss know after annual leave as the reference requests haven’t been made yet (only offered job today)

Second secret. I’ve been married before. Plenty of people in my personal life know this from when I used to be married but I never tell colleagues and I never tell new friends as it was 18 years ago and it feels like another lifetime now.

Mamanyt · 04/06/2021 18:04

well, no one here knows this, but I was missing on Mumsnet for most of the month of May because I was in hospital following a stroke.

Beardie03 · 04/06/2021 18:04

Me too! Intrusive thought/ocd

FayCarew · 04/06/2021 18:07

I grassed on my ex

AcrossthePond55 · 04/06/2021 18:08

My uncle had a child out of wedlock, the result of an extra-marital affair. My aunt (his wife) and his 4 children from his marriage (my cousins) have no idea.

This same aunt had an affair with our family doctor, who was a 'golf buddy' of my uncle.

I don't know whose affair came first.

Beardie03 · 04/06/2021 18:08

I voted conservative for the first time in my life in the last general election.

DIanaRiggFan · 04/06/2021 18:09

Dave at work thinks I don’t know that he’s shagging other employees, but I do

Doggotired · 04/06/2021 18:11

All the time.... but it would literally ruin so many lives. There are 6 kids between them all....

gelatodipistacchio · 04/06/2021 18:11
  1. I broke my former flatmate's favourite mug. I cleaned it up and never breathed a word. He definitely suspected I did it.
  1. I have been married twice. Most people only know about the terrible ex I'm currently divorcing. Hoping I've figured out how not to choose abusive knobs in the future.
  1. I want to shag George from work.
17CherryTreeLane · 04/06/2021 18:12

Work is really shit right now, but I've been offered another job. When I hand my notice in, it'll create carnage.
