To think I need to call her up?

last night I was in the pub, sitting and talking with various people. There is a man there - i'll call him Jim, and his partner Sally.

Jim asks me at 11pm how my boys are and I was telling him that DS2 had bad eczema, I showed him a photo on my mobile, we then got onto discussing his music career and Sally flew at me accusing me of being after him Shock and having just taken his number, I turned my phone round and showed her exatly what I had been doing. and the photo.

She then went into a rage about how she doesn't trust him or any woman around him. and I said she needed to pull herself together and that I was not interested in him however I enjoyed listening to his singing just as everyone in the pub does.

By all accounts they spent the night rowing and at 7.30 she called a mutual friend of ours and told her what had happened.

A few weeks ago she was accusing someone else of the same thing.

She called me last night and apologised but tbh I refused to talk to her and gave my mobile to someone else to speak to her as I was angry at the way she spoke to me.

I feel I should call her and make sure she is ok because she was in such a state last night.

Similar happened to me, a lifelong friend's brother's girlfriend became convinced I was after him. I've known him since he was literally born, apart from it being a slightly weird thought - almost like my own brother - I think that had I had any inclination towards him it would have happened a bit sooner.

GF went bonkers on me one night, cried and cried. TBH I pretty much ignored it. Next time I see her she apologises. Then did it again.

Basically she's insecure as hell and if she feels remotely threatened by another woman in his company her imagination goes into overdrive. It's her problem, not yours.

She's got a big problem. I wouldn't bother calling her up and I wouldn't bother having anything to do with her (or him) again.

BaronessVonEvenstar · 25/04/2011 11:02

I had 2 drinks!!
she was drinking lemonade and no it isn't the first time, but I am worried about her because she was in such a state.

I go to the pub on Fridays and normally on Sundays DP and the DC are with me until about 7 then go home.

Hairy, I won't be speaking to them again and told her that last night. She was in such a state.

I wouldn't mind but she was there when I was talking to him.

yeah,but how much had she had?

LoveLeonardCohen · 25/04/2011 11:05

No leave to blow over. In a week or so your persepctive will change..

zikes · 25/04/2011 11:06

I wouldn't worry, it's not your problem.

I would probably not bother with the couple much in future tho, as it seems to be their thing. There's always a couple like that, ime - who live for drama. Not so much fun for others.

BaronessVonEvenstar · 25/04/2011 11:08

Tilly she was drinking lemonade all night.

I had 2 drinks and then went onto coke.

Zikes, she does seem to like drama.

God don't call her. She'll cling on to you and befriend you. Don't reward the behaviour by giving her attention.

ikilledBosco · 25/04/2011 11:45

Another vote here to stay away from her . They are obviously having problems in their relationship .

BaronessVonEvenstar · 25/04/2011 11:57

she is always the same very clingy and overly worried.

hairylights said it. Just keep clear people like that do not change and you do not need the hassle I presume.

Snorbs · 25/04/2011 12:14

She is insecure and controlling. But she's not your problem. I'd try very hard not to get embroiled in her drama.
