Is there a new thread for the airpods/ Portugal golfing husband?

[OverByYer]

Slightly over invested in this?
@BadDayForMe any update?

[quote Lockheart]@ididntevennotice curiosity is natural. Starting threads tagging the OP and demanding updates because you're a nosy bugger who's bored and wants a juicy update is ghoulish. Rubber necking in the digital age.[/quote]
Yet you know both thread I am referring to and took the time to read this thread too.

It's all a load of crap thats why.

A lot of threads on here are, I don't know why people can't see it?

@Lockheart

Don't be such a ghoul. If it's real then it's a person having their life crumble. Not your next episode of Corrie.

Whatever. I'll do what I want.

@Littleheart5

I believed it, still do

Why?

Genuinely interested as I see some really long threads with a highly dubious op and wonder if people really believe what they are reading. What would make you disbelieve it?

I thought it was real and hope the OP is okay. I hope it was innocent

it has been linked to on twitter

There's someone on Twitter who writes stuff like this and you get long drawn out stories, often only just believable, that keep you in suspense. It's always fascinating and you can't help wanting more. I wonder if it's the same person.

If it's not real - why do posters make up stories ?

hmm, the person on twitter is an ex mnetter of old, or at least their name is

Noooooo. I thought it was real. I wondering what was going to happen.

I spent ages reading that thread 😩😩

Bloody good story. Could be a channel 5 drama series

@Littleheart5 well I sincerely hope you don't pass this naivety about interactions online on to your children!

I can't get over how gullible some people are

@YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet

Hello everyone - we're afraid we have a couple of concerns about the OP and have suspended their account while we wait to hear back from them. Please don't start any further threads about it in the mean time.

If this is the case, even if the story was true I'm afraid we'll probably never know the final outcome now. I doubt she'll pursue an account suspension to be able to update us. 😭

@newbiename

If it's not real - why do posters make up stories ?

Because they're feeling ignored and powerless IRL and want some attention.

Because they're a wannabe writer trying out a fictional storyline.

Because they know MN is full of well-meaning but gullible souls who thrive on drama (especially potential cheating husband drama) and get a kick out of winding them up and watching them go.

It did seem rather farfetched tbh.

@OverByYer

Sorry *@YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet*

No problem at all @OverByYer.

It did seem rather farfetched tbh

Kept you and everyone else coming back for more, though. I enjoyed it too.

Good story though. ITV drama waiting to happen. I'm seeing Suranne Jones as the OP and James Nesbit as the not-golfer. But you'd need a murder in there as well. Possibly of the golf mate's wife?

Ahhh, I was hoping there would be an update with a showdown at Bristol airport

It was a great story. Far too good to be real . Huge plotholes though, they really need to sort them out before sending it to a publisher.

What plot holes?

I'm interested too in the plot holes, do explain

Hahaha

I think someone upset wanted advice here and lots of people here spoiled that by treating it like a TV drama. It was naive of the op to mention specific locations, I found it scary that some poster/s said they would turn up at the airport themselves.
