As requested by @CousinBella
Stop with the drama, stop treating your partner like crap, it’s not his fault.
You’ve had months to sort it out but done nothing. Now it’s Christmas and you’re like a headless chicken.
We’ve listened and advised but the rest is down to you and there’s not a chance we are doing it for you.

If you're not going to see Mum, it's fine but don't tell me you're going.

time4aNC · 23/12/2023 23:11

Why the fuck have you booked to go Disney on Christmas Day when your own children have said they don’t want to go.

JinglePringle · 23/12/2023 23:16

Yes you need to buy the presents, you know where the shops are, GO AND FUCKING BUY THEM.

It's almost Christmas eve i'm not buying presents for your family, I sort our children, you and my family. Im not buying for your dad and sister it is not hard!!!

Plantymcplantface · 23/12/2023 23:19

It’s your nephews birthday and you have done nothing. Your sister has had nothing either for Christmas. They are the last family you have, make an effort.

Hour daughter needs you. She also needs love and attention. There is nothing wrong with her. It’s your fault.

TokyoSushi · 23/12/2023 23:19

Yes you've sorted the food, thank you, but you've done absolutely nothing else.

Why does what your Mother wants, completely override what everybody else, especially your wife wants?

Your family treat you realllllly badly, yet you insist on bending over backwards for them, forsaking all others.

I know it's Christmas, but you don't need to have 5+ beers every single night then lie in the middle of the bed snoring like a hog, so I get virtually no sleep for the entire week.

I could go on 🙄

Continueasweareormakeachange · 23/12/2023 23:41

I don't think I want us anymore.

Alphabet1spaghetti2 · 23/12/2023 23:48

It’s just one day and one roast dinner. You aren’t religious and your child is an adult. You are all adults, you all know Santa Claus and Rudolph don’t exist and it’s just a commercial exercise in extracting money from wallets.

and breathe.

SqueezyMcJingles · 23/12/2023 23:48

Omg please leave me alone and let me listen to more than a few lines of a song before interrupting me. Why don't you talk to me when my headphones are off yet start yapping away the minute I press "play"?

Tilllly · 23/12/2023 23:49

Stop whining about your mild cold and using it to sit on the sofa eating crap, drinking and asking me endless stupid questions in an attempt to sound like you're helping

TheCatfordCat · 23/12/2023 23:49

I am hating having to live with you whilst we divorce. I want you out.

SiL, you act the superior mother over all others, yet because of the choices you've made your kids are utterly hopeless adults.

DB I do not fucking care how you make a Negroni. Ffs find a new hobby. Something entertaining.

LaviniasBigBloomers · 23/12/2023 23:55

I miss you so much I can't fucking breathe. If it wasn't for DS I would just walk into the sea. Failing that, I just want to pull the duvet over my head and and wake up in January.

Luddite26 · 23/12/2023 23:58

I don't know why we fucking bother.

murasaki · 23/12/2023 23:59

Oh @LaviniasBigBloomers , my thoughts are with you. I was going to post a slightly peeved thing about amazon boxes still not opened and wrapped by DP and clogging up the front room but you put it in perspective. I do hope you somehow have a good day, in as far as it can be. Best wishes to you and your son at what must be a very difficult time for you. I hope you have loved ones around you. Take care .

SantaLovesTheBanter · 24/12/2023 00:02

Why are you lying. You are sat in my house, benefitting from my generous hospitality despite our fractured relationship while lying through your teeth about me about something that NEVER happened. Why the fuck are you lying like that, so openly and brazenly when we both no that isnt what happened AT ALL?!

Oh, just fuck off home already, will you!!

Thank fuck you're leaving, it's been an excruciating and draining few days. I'm so fucking relieved you're going.

Defender90 · 24/12/2023 00:03

Why do I have a thank you video with my niece playing with the cash I sent 5 days before Christmas?

Must want all the 'poor side' presents dealt with before your insta Christmas on the actual day.

Alphabet1spaghetti2 · 24/12/2023 00:04

@LaviniasBigBloomers all i can offer is a hug.

Ah that's so kind of you @murasaki. DH is with me too, it's my sibling that's gone. I thought I was doing fine but all of a sudden I'm not.

Thank you, I will receive it gratefully!

Watchthedoormat · 24/12/2023 00:13

Selfish utter brats. Take, take, take.

Why are we in a race to the bottom?
It's obvious I have more stress with all the household tasks, life admin and work.
Have you ever actually seen 8am on a weekend?

Fuck off to bed so I can have a cigarette in my garden. Yes, you don't know I like the odd cigarette but I do so get over it or just piss off to bed.

Seriously you look an utter prat walking around with that dressing gown hood up.

WetTowelsWillRemainOnFloorWhereTheyHaveBeenLeft · 24/12/2023 00:26

If you could see inside my heart you would see that I really, honestly, properly do not give a fucking shit whether or not you tip up.

It makes not one jot of difference to any of us. Really.

Only my blood pressure cares, and it is pleased. Obviously. Because it will be steadier if you stay in the house and moan on to yourself rather than anybody else who happens to be within earshot.

Oh and the additional reason I feel this way (as if I need an additional reason) is because when I was trying to sort out a replacement for the lost phone, I read your lovely text.
So we can safely verify that you are vicious and jealous as well as being a liar and a hypocrite.

Anonymouse2019 · 24/12/2023 00:56

You've contributed absolutely nothing to this Christmas, and I don't mean financially. Christmas magic DOESN'T "just happen". Just because your mother made your childhood a total misery doesn't mean you should want the same for your own children. You should want better for them, and that doesn't happen by itself. Get the fuck off your lazy arse and do something about it.

Heyhoherewegoagain · 24/12/2023 01:07

At work just now (emergency service) to my colleague…WILL YOU JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP -NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR PREVIOUS CAREER WHICH WE ALL ACTUALLY DOUBT EXISTED

Tistheseasontobejollytrala · 24/12/2023 01:20

Yes it is lovely to have you all home for Christmas, but please for the love of all that is holy can you keep all your own stuff in your rooms?

trippily · 24/12/2023 01:24

Funny how your "depression" is always worst when we have loads of stuff to do. I hope you enjoyed your naps while I dealt with the kids and everything else. I do hope you can get some weed so that you are less of a wanker tomorrow.

I want a divorce.

SomethingBlues · 24/12/2023 01:27

You are a lazy, slovenly drama queen and the sooner you are out of my fucking house and out of my fucking life the better.
