Currently sat in my room

I'm sat in my room sorting some clothes out whilst my partners mate and "new bit" are sat downstairs chatting, I ran upstairs out the way 😂.

I'm introverted, and don't like my partners friend who odd and immature.

Anyone else do runners up in the room to avoid the conversations?. And yes I'm rude for doing this but hey ho I really don't want to be around immature conversations with a bloke who's 35 who constantly talks about women's bodies in a way that feels eurh and getting pissed every night.

No. If I didn’t like them and they made me feel uncomfortable my partner wouldn’t let them come to the house. I wouldn’t entertain visitors when I was not dressed and feel I had to hide away unless I was seriously unwell in bed and this has happened once as I had a migraine. Why are you with the persons when his friends are so awful. It’s a reflection on your partners and you

saltandvinegarpringles · 14/02/2026 13:49

You sound like you're made for eachother tbh - you both use shitty, derogatory language and don't seem to care about it.

The issue is

  1. you calling this woman “his new bit”
  2. your creep of a partner for being friends with someone this awful

you going on about being “introverted” is neither here nor there

Because his "new bit" is his new bit what more do you need from that?

My partner isn't a creep why are you all hard at understanding that his friend is the creep Jesus read the room!

Well I am introverted why is that hard to understand? Should untrovert myself so you can understand better?

‘New bit’
’mong’

What revolting language-it sounds like you all deserve each other.

Anyone who refers to a woman as his “new bit”… is well suited to someone who is friends with someone like this foul man.

Quit harping on about being introverted. You are with a creep, who’s friends with an even bigger creep and you use language like “new bit” to describe a woman and “mong”

Exactly

ShowOfHands · 14/02/2026 13:56

Calling a woman a "new bit" is reductive and unpleasant.

The 'm' word you've used is offensive and disablist.

Harrietsaunt · 14/02/2026 13:58

Your choice of language is very low quality.

“new bit” and “mxxx” are both appalling. It sounds like you have more in common with your partners friend than you think.

Shamalama56 · 14/02/2026 13:58

Since when was introverted an excuse for being bloody rude?

Its rude. And weird.

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 14/02/2026 13:58

Yeah your word voices aren’t the best.

MidWayThruJanuary · 14/02/2026 13:59

The op is vile
I’ve reported the thread

Shamalama56 · 14/02/2026 14:00

Are you the kind of introvert with tattoos over the tops of your boobs and a propensity for saying things like "call a spade a spade, me".

Because thats the kinda introverted vibe youre giving RN

New bit is an object. You're referring to a woman as an object. Sexist language. Like the creepy men use.
Mong is a derogatory term for people with disabilities. Working in a nursery, you should be well aware of the connotations with this language.
I'm an introvert. It doesn't mean that I have to be rude and derogatory. I can push myself out of my comfort zone for an hour for the sake of being polite.

Shinyandnew1 · 14/02/2026 14:05

Does that make you an ‘old bit’?

Thattimenow · 14/02/2026 14:06

I love it when an OP like this gets her arse handed to her on a plate!

LadyBrendaLast · 14/02/2026 14:09

I get it OP.

I don't have social anxiety but I am an introvert. I go to formal events a lot at work but need to spend 5 minutes in the loo every hour to decompress.

It’s very much moved on from that!

Yep, just saw that.

smallglassbottle · 14/02/2026 13:20

Can't you find a better quality partner? I'd rather be alone than be stuck with some grunt and his grunty mates.

Raise the bar fgs.

saltandvinegarpringles · 14/02/2026 13:40

Your partner is a creep for tolerating and spending time with this bloke.

100 %

She doesn't have a bar to raise, read her updates!

saltandvinegarpringles · 14/02/2026 13:44

Do you realise how offensive the M word is? Or do you just not care?

Just about to say the exact thing!!

Meredithspants · 14/02/2026 14:27

Sounds like we can all see why your partner tolerates the creep, and you. He clearly has very low standards. You are pretty vile. Introverted or not. And no, fwiw normal adult women don’t run upstairs and hide like antisocial teens when people come to their house. We speak with our partners about who is visiting and if people arrive as our guests we treat them that way… hth.

MyBadday · 14/02/2026 14:27

Op you need to rethink the language you are using.

Christmasinmecar · 14/02/2026 14:28

That's true, have just read them. Shakes head in despair.
