An affair with a woman I am housemates with.

I’ve fallen in love for the first time but my older brothers are just about to brutally murder my love to get some cash, even though my dad is the Pope of Rome and should be loaded!

I'm Cassie Austen and the lovely Mr Hobday has just proposed (but I've turned him down, sadly). Won't give away any more in case of spoilers for those who haven't seen Miss Austen.

Sitting in the tea room at Carnforth Railway Station looking anguished 😔

Della and Fi from Amandaland (or Amanda and Johannes 😂)

I'm faking my own pregnancy, bonding with a pregnant stranger over our pregnancies and now I've fallen in love with her brother. That's an hour and a half I'll never get back.

I'd definitely pick Della and Fi!

Yeah that would be my preference too! I totally failed to get the point of the thread though, so maybe I should be Anne, in love with the idea of being Mammy to Darius's girlfriend.

@MyUmberSeal I understand discretion is needed but please do not upset your maid by requesting her to run errands that may be against her beliefs and potentially damage her own relationship. It's particularly selfish, even by your standards.

@Theresacatinmykitchenwhatamigonnado beware of the GAYS

I'm navigating co-parenting and working with my ex-husband, who's somehow got elected to the presidency of an Eastern European country despite no previous government experience.

Not telling my husband I'm a wheelchair user after not seeing him for years, him refusing sex and eventually injecting me with heroin, confronting his boss about anally raping him Confused

I'm being thrown about on a ship on the way to Montana to meet up with my husband who i have been torn apart from, whilst he has been forced by the mafia to transport boxes of something.
He needs to get home to save the family ranch from baddies.

Hmm I'm a mentally damaged, coerced and abused psychiatrist in love with a sociopath (Harlequin & Joker, watched Suicide Squad (the first one), last night!)

Do you really want to be with a man who prances around in shoulder pads and tights?

You have clearly never met any male ballet dancers. I have. I also know how phenomenally strong they are. They are at an Olympic level of fitness. My dd is a professionally trained ballet dancer, and her good friend is a (male) principal dancer with the Royal Ballet.

Oh, and did you know that professional rugby teams often incorporate ballet exercises into their training?

Piratejenny99 · 04/03/2025 15:02

I've lost my long term memory after a suicide attempt and recently discovered I was having an affair. Now I don't know whether to believe my husband or my lover about the events that led up to my memory loss.

I’m very familiar with male ballet dancers, thanks. My point wasn’t about the dancers’ physiques, but I’m happy to discuss the muscly merits of Marcelino Sambe vs Steven McRae any time.

Well saying 'prances about in shoulder pads and tights' wasn't exactly complimentary, was it?

I've met Stephen McRae, and his wife & dc.

@theboffinsarecoming I was referring to the character of Siegfried, not dissing the dancers. I’m a massive ballet fan.

I'm O. J. Simpson's ex wife. Oh dear...😱

Oh I agree about him, he is a right wet lettuce. I much prefer Benno.
