Happy New Year!

I'm still off work and getting bored. Looking for some good threads to waste a morning diving into.

What threads have stuck with you since you read them on here? Any with particular good advice? Funny or just plain scandalous also welcomed!

There was a poster whose husband was moving or removing things of hers, putting them back in a different place and denying it. It was the very definition of gaslighting- very similar scenario to what happened in the movie that gave this phenomenon its name. I think she decided to leave him as there were other problems in their relationship. I wonder if she did.

The thread "you're a man now" where women are now men and what our privileges are
It was the reason I joined mumsnet and have it saved to I can read it from time to time

Can you post a link to that? It sounds brilliant.

There’s a current thread about an overseas wedding and they always remind me of one years ago.

the poster was angry her sister was having a destination wedding, but it turned out the bride and groom now lived in this new place, they were getting married in the church near their home and having a reception close by. The poster kept saying she should have the wedding “at home” and really struggled with the idea where she lives and most of her family, is no longer “home” to her sister.

it was really interesting to see someone just not get that her sister wasn’t “working abroad”, her sister had emigrated.

I do wonder if the poster accepted her sister’s home and her home were in different places, or at what point it would take to get that.

Interested in this thread?

@DumboNoMore the poster I’m thinking of lived in S Wales, but regardless of whether you’re the poster I’m thinking about I’m so glad you have found peace and contentment.

MN was also an enormous source of support to me during a very difficult loss and despite the shittinwss and bitchiness that sometimes threatens to engulf the site I’m so grateful that it remains for those that need it.

Yes that was me!
