Please.

Ex h has met someone else. Don't care.

What I care about is he has told her really really personal stuff about me. Stuff she didn't need to know. Stuff he didn't need to tell her. He could have said something fairly benign about why we split without telling her something so painful. They've been dating a week. Seven fucking days.

I'm not saying what but trust me when I say it is gobsmackingly bad.

I have been tearful for hours but I need to sleep, have two difficult and busy days coming and need to deal with it.

It's okay @yousexybugger I can't say what it's about as feel ashamed and embarrassed. He clearly thinks it's okay to tell her as wants to be open and honest. But he's hurting me! Again. And I might fucking know her which makes it doubly worse.

@isthismylifenow thank you. Swearing in a foreign language is fabulous though I can't even attempt it! By the way he is my ex as thank fuck we are divorced.

My lovely friend rang me today and told me ex was punching with me so that made me feel better as I happen to know my LF thinks I am very nice..put a smile on my face anyway.

@Isittoolatea he told her as it has impacted on him too and he won't pretend it hasn't. But he never told me!! And he wants to be open and honest as he restarts his life. Fucks sake.

I had pleasure in amending my post now, but I too say thank fuck he is a solid ex.

He is probably trying to one up you or make himself appear bigger, better. Jesus Lord this is going to backfire so badly and I hope you get to see it soon.

You will look back at this one day and still be a better person. He will remain a 'fokken doos'

I have read between the lines of what you didn't say, and so angry on your behalf.

Do you go to the gym at all? I think it’s time for a Boxercise class, or maybe some heavy ball slams. Or heavy deadlifts where you just have to slam the barbell down. That slam can be verrrry satisfying.

I’m sorry @BirthdayRainbow - but reflect on the lots of him being EX. He sounds like a total fuckwitted dickhead.

Lollypop701 · 24/09/2024 18:34

If a new bloke told me personal stuff about his ex by day 7 i would run for the hills… thinking what an utter fuckwit no wonder she left him. Oh and I hope he gets chronic haemorrhoid’s and a bad case of diarrhoea …

Balloonhearts · 24/09/2024 18:36

My crazy neighbour has been screaming all night that he's going to kill people, I'm sure he'd add one to the list for a good cause.

I don't go to the gym but I walk the dog twice a day and I run. I have a treadmill for when I can't face being outside. I'll be running tomorrow for sure!

I wonder if he told her before they started dating as they met at a walking group. I've felt he's had someone for ages or at the very least his eye on someone. And she's a widow! What if he causes her more upset?

apparently he told her as wants to rebuild his life with someone

After knowing her for 7 days????

Red flags.

Let’s hope she posts here and MN can set her right on a fuckwit who shares intimate and private information of his ex-wife.

itsmylife7 · 24/09/2024 19:02

He's a fucking piece of shit and I wouldn't spit on him if he was on fire.

If a new man I was dating told me such personal things about his ex...... I'd assume he'd also share my stuff..... so I'd never trust him.

Just seen this BirthdayRainbow
and thought of you …
Let them play their little game. You're on a different level now, playing for much higher stakes – your future, your success, your legacy. Let this be the fuel to your fire. Remember, kings and queens build empires despite the betrayals they face. You're no different. Forge your path, make your mark, and let them watch from the sidelines as you take your throne.

yousexybugger · 24/09/2024 19:10

Well you've absolutely nothing to be ashamed about.

On the other hand, let's all hope his boiler goes in January and requires a very hard to source part xx

Very good point. But I don't think it has only been a week. I think it has been months. Stupid idiot forgets I've known him for nearly three decades.

I worry for her. She's been a widow a year. Now she's hooked up with my ex. Zero emotional intelligence. Doesn't know one bit of a fanny from another. Can't really do it without help and then it's over in about two minutes.

Today I smashed the wedding frame. Ripped up the photo. Felt fabulous. I also took apart a piece of furniture he is taking to the tip on Friday and thought fuck him, I don't need him.

Stop worrying about her if she wants to be with a limp dick who can't keep his mouth shut.... good luck to her.

You just concentrate on number 1...you.
