To be extremely fucked off ?!?

...with a fellow mum, and supposed 'friend' at the school?

Basically, my son is best friends with this boy (they're both in Yr1 & went through Reception / nursery together). The other boys mum is a young mum who I thought was quite mature for her age, lives with her mum and dad still - her mum does more with the boy than her though, typical loving nan I guess?

Anyway, we've known each other for a few years now - this family know the shit we've had to endure; financial issues, hubby's Stroke, other issues.

I posted a FB status status last week saying for anyone who was online, if they didn't like me then delete me ... Well, the nan deleted me! Hmmm, surprised as we've always been pals ?

Then the kids mum, posted a status about loving her new work colleagues etc, I commented saying that was great but not to be too open to them as I've had sufficient experience of being shit on by colleagues in the past - she got really pissed off with this so I removed my comments. I since saw a comment from her to somebody on her FB calling me a 'bloody crank'?!

I took this girl's son on an expensive day trip out last Summer, bought him lunch, toys etc Confused This girl calls me a crank yet has just announced she's preggo again with her 'friends' baby this time ?!?

Just to add this girl also claims fraudelent benefits, which pisses me right off...

Would you be alnnoyed? Would you pull her at school or just ignore them from now on??

I feel really upset and disappointed to have let my guard down and opened my heart again to people who I believed to be decent people, friends Hmm

Time to leave off now, I think.
The op is not the worst person in the world...

mindthegap01 · 13/02/2014 16:27

YABU. I'd have deleted you too.

HairyGrotter · 13/02/2014 16:29

Not the worst person, no, but vaguebookers are a drain on Neurotypical folks patience and understanding.

The OP is one of those sorts that make rational people tear at their own skin.

OP YABU and fucking weird

Beeyump · 13/02/2014 16:33

What does 'One word: DNA' mean? Fabulously cryptic.

2tiredtocare · 13/02/2014 16:38

Who says 'preggo' I'd delete you on that basis alone!

GinSoakedMisery · 13/02/2014 16:52

I suggest you take yourself off FB For a whole, de stress a bit, you sound quite stressed, and look at what you're putting on other people's stati once you go back on it.

Honestly, you sound like you have a lot on your plate, stop adding to it with rather silly qualms.

breatheslowly · 13/02/2014 17:48

I've never vented on FB and nor have any of my friends. Are there people whose FB newsfeeds are full of this type of shit? To be fair, I've never been on Jeremy Kyle, nor have any of my friends.

Am I in the minority or majority of having no experience of these things?

HaroldLloyd · 13/02/2014 17:51

I only have one that says things like

Oh yet again life shits on my dinner (or similar)

The comments

You ok
I'll PM you.

Argh. Just say.

Think it's boyfriend related as loads of selfies appear afterwards, in dressed up clothes.

brooncoo · 13/02/2014 18:14

I only have one FB friend (who I haven't hidden or deleted) who posts weirdy attention seeking posts. Or little cryptic messages for certain people or just a post to thank someone for being so lovely or making her dinner etc when she could just text them or send a private message. I would delete her but she fascinates me as it shows her in a completely different light to the person I thought I knew. I sometimes wonder if she is actually ok or going through a hard time as her posts just seem off somehow.

piratecat · 13/02/2014 18:18

yabu, you asked a provocative question, got a reaction and didn't like it.

then you commented on her choice of friends.

you sound very insecure.

littleballerina · 13/02/2014 18:28

sorry, it was all just a bit jeremy kyle to me. hence my dna comment.
that is what he says isn't it?

YouStayClassySanDiego · 13/02/2014 18:45

PistolAnnies

Just saw my nn and happy to respond.

Yes, odd posts from you asking us to reveal our deepest, darkest fantasies.

You asked, people were Hmm and you didn't reply.

So yes, odd.

This thread is totes amaze Grin

PublicEnemyNumeroUno · 13/02/2014 19:12

Fucking hell i don't even know where to begin with this thread. But laughing my arse off at 'you'd keep ya gob shut if we where face to face' (or words to that affect) you sound like you're about 14, i cant believe you are 30 Confused i don't think id be able to keep my gob shut if we where face to face and you where explaining this drama to me.

Grow up

lazyhound444 · 13/02/2014 19:24

I know, the irony of accusing anyone who disagrees with her of being "keyboard warriors" when all she's done is be exactly that. This woman is deluded to the max and suffers from the affliction of believing that Facebook is real life and that we're all secretly "just like her" we just don't have the balls to call it.

Unfortunately I actually know a couple of people like this in reality. Needless to say they have no friends and are constantly poking their noses in other people's lives as they have nothing going on in their own.

A common phrase they use is "I just say what other people are thinking". Er, no you don't. You're a bitter, loudmouthed malcontent and nobody likes you.

Zucker · 13/02/2014 19:24

Facebook is such a help to weed out the people that seem alright, when all along they're proper loons.

I have one of these on my friends list. I like to keep her as you would a pet, pure entertainment.

I thought "One Word DNA" was a typo for DNR. But then I watch too much ER :o

NoLikeyNoLighty · 13/02/2014 21:14

Why the heck would you post "if you don't like me, delete me!" on FB?! Confused Seems an attention seeking thing to do to me. this coming from sone who loves facebook and spends far too long on there
I'd probably feel like deleting you too just for posting crap like that! Smile
I wouldn't pull her up on any of that you've mentioned tbh. All seems far too petty and daft to be worth bothering about!

NoLikeyNoLighty · 13/02/2014 21:19

As for my FB post - I wrote it because after hearing a couple of things, I was fed up of yet again, being associated with two-faced people - You lot may not mind that, but I do, I'm straight up - no bullshit.

Well why didn't you just delete them people yourself then?!

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 13/02/2014 21:36

More importantly, why the hell would you post "if you don't like me delete me" on fb and then sit there watching your obviously extensive friends list, waiting to get the arse when someone actually does it!

Penny6Pence · 13/02/2014 21:44

Best thread in ages.

It's clear you have absolutely no idea how unhinged you sound. I'm just left feeling mortified on your behalf. Do grow up.

Beeyump · 13/02/2014 22:23

I still don't know what DNA means!

littleballerina · 13/02/2014 22:34

I was being silly!
It was all a bit jeremy kyle.

frugalfuzzpig · 13/02/2014 22:40

Ohhhh I geddit now.
