Who's friend had a DP in america and she went over there to have her baby and the OP was worried her friends DP and his mum were planning on keeping the baby?

Posting in AIBU because it was in here for a while and a few might remember.

To make this more interesting, post your own 'what happened's to try and get updates!

Shaky I often think about the lady who went to France with new partner who was acting like an arse. Did she come back and say what happened?

Also what about satinbedecrying. A lot of us contributed that night. Did she update. We were very worried for her. It's the nature of the beast the anonymous Internet and no one owes us anything....but human curiosity being what it is...we invested a lot of empathy in that lady and we just want the best for her. It would be nice to know if she kicked him into touch but I suspect she is still with him.

There was also another lady who was sat in her car. Her phone battery was going down . Ah I can't remember too much about her situation. But it as another....as it was happening.

Yes thst one primal, and yes I know the original thread was deleted. There has been mention of a second, post settlement, update thread I was asking about.

TidyDancer · 09/01/2015 12:58

Blueandwhitelover - Gluezilla has never apologised to me or afaik anyone else either. Her facebook profile is apparently always full of her professional accomplishments (she is medically trained and published) which a mutual friend has confirmed is very exaggerated.

I have seen her DH in passing though and (perhaps its my imagination but....) he looked quite sheepish. Didn't enter into conversation though, so not sure if I'm right or not.

The poster I have always wondered about what TheLastOfTheNappies. She posted in Relationships with a thread entitled something like 'Help me have a good relationship with MIL or DH and I will split up'. That was in my early days of MN, so perhaps 2010 or 2011. The MIL and DH were throwing a secret birthday party for the DD without telling the OP. They had also changed their DD's name when she was a couple of months old iirc and MIL refused to accept it so was throwing this party under the original name. I think it was the DCs 1st birthday. MIL was extremely unpleasant but OP's DH was very reluctant to take any action.

I would love to know if the OP was okay.

FruChristerOla · 09/01/2015 15:38

TidyDancer, I've also been one who has been intrigued to find out what happened to your friendship with Gluezilla since the wedding. Thanks for the update - clearly she's still living in her own little bubble? And clearly you've not seen her socially since? Presumably your contact with her DH is professional, not social?

PartTimePunk · 09/01/2015 15:49

I regularly think of a desperately sad thread where the OP was being abused by her husband. It started shortly after she'd given birth. She had to go to hospital, and her husband insisted on being present at all times to prevent her asking for help. He was also a copper, and she felt nobody in rl would believe her. I hope she got away from the horrible bastard.

TracyBarlow · 09/01/2015 16:50

hippo123 that lady is now almost divorced, has a lovely little boy and has a long-running thread in the other place ->

The first thread I ever read was by a woman called ValentineBombshell who had a hideous husband who left her on Vaentine's day. I always wonder what happened to her.

hippo123 · 09/01/2015 17:24

Thanks cider and tracybarlow. So glad she's ok, she seemed lovely. What's the other place? (Whispers) netmums?

TracyBarlow · 09/01/2015 17:49

hippo123 I will PM you.

wewishyou · 09/01/2015 19:53

I remember a thread, around Christmas last month. The OP had moved into her uncle's flat with her DD after a break up and noticed a ring moving from one place to another. She also came home one day to find the curtains on the floor. I can't find the thread anymore, did she find out who it was in the end?

Frizzcat · 09/01/2015 20:00

wewishyou

I think that thread was deleted. Was it the one where an ex-partner may have found her and her uncle wouldn't change the locks for a few weeks?

wewishyou · 09/01/2015 20:14

Yes that one. I guess we will never know. I hope that the OP is safe and well now

ThereIsACarInTheKitchen · 09/01/2015 20:24

wewish iirc that thread was deleted as HQ suspected trolling.

Pandora37 · 09/01/2015 21:29

I often wonder about the poster whose partner had been lying to her having a terminal illness for years and basically lied to her about everything. Last I read was they'd split up but were still living together, he was a SAHD and was continuing to lie about things. I remember she was very defensive of him and his alleged mental health issues which I can understand but I do remember feeling a bit frustrated by it all.

I also wonder about the woman who was pregnant who wasn't allowed to go to her SIL's wedding abroad but was allowed to stay in the same hotel or something weird. I'd love to see an update on that.

There was also a poster on the mental health threads, Natasha something I think, who said she was a teacher but was planning on committing suicide before the new term started in September. I don't think she's posted since unless I've missed it.

CinderellaRockefeller · 09/01/2015 21:31

I remember lastofthenappies! She had a second thread about how the husband was become abusive, asked him to leave then never came back.

hollyisalovelyname · 09/01/2015 21:41

What about the woman who said she had to eat her food from the kitchen waste caddy ?
Was there an update?
Did she escape?
She had a child and step children also.

samlamb · 10/01/2015 13:39

I am another who often wonders about the ' name change poster. It was a horrifying thread that got worse. I hope that her son is safe.

Grapeeatingweirdo · 10/01/2015 18:12

I am so sad about Happy. Was checking in regulatory for an update and missed the thread linked to up thread. So so so sad. She was a lovely young woman who loved get children so much. What a terrible outcome

Grapeeatingweirdo · 10/01/2015 18:13

*her, autocorrect, sorry

highlighta · 12/01/2015 07:41

I also wonder about the poster who got married and then was sat all alone on her wedding night... was there any updates. I felt so dreadfully sorry for her.

The poster who managed to get away from her abusive partner and go to a refuge with her child. She then returned back to her dh a week or so later. He said he would change, as she was like a prisoner in her own home.

IDontDoIroning · 14/01/2015 08:47

I remember one where poster was married to a Greek man - maybe living in Greece? He had promised that the tradition of naming first born boy after grandfather would end but Lo and behold when ds was born he went back on his word and was insisting baby be called yorgios or similar.

Metalguru · 14/01/2015 20:20

I know it was quite recent but what happened about the girl collecting on Facebook for two old ladies, it sounded like it might be a scam and I read about 10 pages of it but never got to the end, now I can't find the thread.

FreeWee · 14/01/2015 21:18

Yes Metal! It got deleted because we were all being a bit too stalkerish to be fair (I hold my holds up!) but also want to know if she did get properly outed as a liar!

Bellerina2 · 14/01/2015 21:30

I was waiting for an update to the spooky tale involving snow, camping pods (whatever TF they are) and the OP's husband's encounter with a ghost of a man with half his face blown away but I think that was a fake. Another poster deconstructed the story quite nicely on a thread and the OP never came back.

hollyisalovelyname · 16/01/2015 19:37

The poster who was eating from the kitchen waste caddy- so many lovely Mumsnetters were willing to help. Was she a hairy handed being?
