Oh please help me I'm mortified!! I've just had a play date from HELL and to I went to text my best friend (who would find it hilarious) all about it, outlined everything horrible that he did but I sent it to the little boys mother. I feel like crying.

Is there anyway out of this, I used him name and I ended with "never to return again" Blush

I'm not worried, but I imagine that she might have good reason for keeping the chat, whether good or bad, private.

Hope it goes OK OP.

WanderingTrolley1 · 15/07/2014 22:50

Hope they're both ok...

Roundbales · 15/07/2014 22:52

Hope all went ok.

McBear · 15/07/2014 22:53

What happened OP???? Simply. Must. Know.

I bet it's a warm fuzzy story by the end if it. N'aaaaaawwwwwwwww Grin

CarmonEileen - HILARIOUS!

LOVE FIL/Husband mix ups and that's a cracker Smile

Of all the things to accidentally send to your FIL

Did they ever mention it to one another? I'm guessing, no........

As for OP - hope it all went well at the mother(of play date child)'s house and you both feel better for chatting it over Smile

Desperate to know How it went-think you've done as much as can be expected in the situation. Good luck to you both-honesty at some level is beneficial but harder if nobody has been honest with her before x

Hope visit went well.

It could of been me

YouTheCat · 15/07/2014 23:16

They'll both be rat arsed by now. Grin

TheCraicDealer · 15/07/2014 23:30

Are you telling me I've just scanned through an entire 300-post long thread and there's no update?! FFS.

I bitch all the time. Put my hands up. Sometimes I'm justified, other times DP or whoever tells me to wind my neck in and get on with it. It's how a lot of people deal with things. Better than keeping it all bottled up until you end up having a row over bringing mugs into the communal kitchen [gimmer]

Nannyplumismymum · 15/07/2014 23:46

The world had gone mad.

An out pouring of sympathy for a total stranger who made sweary comments about a child's behaviour - thinking her mate would laugh.

How classy.

MiscellaneousAssortment · 15/07/2014 23:47

Worries that text was a ruse to get OP over to the house before torture and slow death...

Every word punctuated by a stab with a child size fork... Or application of Lego pieces to knees..
'only. I. am. allowed. to. call. my. child. a. little. sxxx'

Would that be justified homicide?

(OP I have every sympathy for all concerned)

Nannyplumismymum · 15/07/2014 23:50

Whereisthelight you don't know me from Adam so don't pretend to.

I don't take part in behaviour like OPs.

That doesn't make me sanctimonious it makes me treat and talk to others in a way I would wanted to be treated and talked about by others.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 15/07/2014 23:51

Tbh I'm with nanny plum on this. I'd shove your bottle of wine right up your.....!Shock

rootypig · 15/07/2014 23:54

Oh nanny, you keep posting and getting ignored, don't you? Not getting much satisfaction with this crowd.

Great, noone pmed me about ignoring other posters. Is there a list?

Im also worried the reply txt was a lie and the other mother has kidnapped OP

kali110 · 16/07/2014 00:14

Hope it went well op.
I feel bad for the other mom but i don't think you did anything wrong.
You weren't bitching maliciously. You'd had a crappy day and wanted to vent to your friend and i seriously cannot believe that everybody on this thread has not done this at one time.

montysma1 · 16/07/2014 00:15

My twins were so like their daddy that it used to make my friend laugh, particularly because I couldn see it at all. I took a phone photo where even I saw the likeness, and texted it to my friend with the caption "Who's the Daddy?"

No reply that day, bit odd.
Next day
"Who is this?"

Somewhere a bloke was shitting it or a wife was going ballistic.
I did reply and say, sorry wrong number, which may or may not have helped.

SweetsForMySweet · 16/07/2014 00:15

I feel sorry for the lady you sent the text to. What you did is not a nice thing to do op. At least you apologised hopefully without any buts attached because there really is no excuse to show you in a good light
