To think this is my job, not dh's mates.

[CatThiefKeith]

Dh has been faffing about what he wants to do for his birthday on Saturday for weeks. Yesterday he finally decided he just wanted to go down the local.

He's a bit disappointed because half the pub had already made plans to go to a boxing match, so once he was asleep I sent out a fb invite to loads of our friends saying I knew it was short notice but if they could make it that's where we'd be.

Then I got the following messages from dh's best mate. Who is a twat

Hi ya
As far as Saturday goes we're on the same page
I thought also that xxx would want people to pop in n see him for his birthday so I did the same
Assuming you would be by his side and so he didn't find out I didn't tell you
Hope that's not too imposing ? But just wanted you guys to turn up and people be out for him
Iv sorted a little cake balloons banners but also put a little gentle twist on his decor too
Really hope you don't mind and glad we're both on the same page or wave length x

Is it me or is that overstepping the boundaries a bit?

Dh just laughs it off. He never sees any wrong in anyone.

Iv not bought it yet so go for it x

He'd wind me the fuck up. Who does he think he is? Great very no you permission to buy your HUSBAND a birthday cake? Inviting his mates & leaving out DH's. Organising anything without checking with you first. Sending that greeting is well weird.

Patio? I have a patio & you can shove the weird git under it.

Keep taking the piss out of him for being tight and lending DH his decorations he needs for his next birthday & mentioning they'll be too old to reuse by DH's 40th.

He'd have been of the 'mates' list after the IVF fiasco.

Your DH needs to wise up and start seeing people for who they are.

Keith I swear we are married to the same man!

It took us being burgled by a former "friend" of DH's for him to accept what I had been saying about him for months. I knew as soon as I met this man that he was bad news, but DH wouldnt see any bad in him. And he hasnt learned. He still takes people at absolute face value, if they say that they are honest as the day is long then he believes them. If they say (as another one did....) that the reason they went to prison due to a fit up/misunderstanding, then he believes them. I swear that they can see him coming.

Thankfully, I DID learn my lesson and I keep the wolves away.

Just been sent a screen shot from the other group/event.

Balloons up
Banners up
Cake delivered.
Mr CTK will be there at 7.30, can you all get there just before so we can all cheer as he comes through the door.

He's been tracking dh via 'find my friends' app! I've turned it off now. Bloody weirdo. Dh is in the shower. Might tempt him with a birthday shag so we are fashionably late!

Who the actual fuck does that?

The more you post the weirder he sounds. He really is creepy

I really really want to post a picture on here if the massive poster he's had made of dh's face and hung on the pub wall but can't, because it would obviously out me. I will stick it on my FB and let @MrsKoala tell you all about it!

OMG this is getting weirder & weirder. What is Prick's wife like? Does she know how weird her DH is with your DH? Hope you have fun tonight!

I know. She's a bit dim, but lovely, and thinks the sun shines out of his arse.

This is getting worse and worse!

I wouldnt be able to help asking him, in front of as many other people as possible, why he thought it was ok to organise a party without discussing it with you, inviting you or even telling you that it was happening.

Re the poster, sounds so bizarre and way ott, he sounds a little unhinged..

Utter prick. I remember the patio debacle, ugh thick selfish arrogant twat face!

The only sad thing is that your dh has such bad taste in friends and seems happy to let prick try and edge out his wife... ffs! Ok, I get he doesn't know the latest bromance nausea inducing twattery, but seriously...

I hope posting here will allow you to vent whilst remaining cool and unflappable in the face of prick trying to piss ownership all over your dh. It's weird. Make sure others know how weird. Whilst remaining cool yourself! 😎 🔥 😡

It's not even a good photo. It's just his face and it is MASSIVE. Like 4ft by 3ft. Bizarre.

I have however invited a friend of mine that he despises, mainly because she's pretty, funny and successful. She is busy taking the piss right out of his man crush!

Yeah, agree with Kipperbang - don't hold back in telling people what he's done. The more people who realise (I.e. Come to the realisation themselves) that he's a prick the better.

As predicted, the pub is full of 40th birthday banners and balloons.

And punch balloons, weirdly. If prick takes my drink out with one I may batter him to death with it!

What a dick

Did you arrive fashionably late?

Place marking

Only 20 mins late.

Hopefully long enough for people to get cramp from bending down to hide behind furniture.

Yes cramp is a necessary part of tonight's 'fun' :)

Here's the cake!

Love the evolution of this thread YABU he's a nice friend and it's resolved to him sing a bit...odd! Probably meant to be a nice gesture...but weird

Everyone is now back from the boxing. Dh is having a great night, so all is well. Weirdly though Prick wants to keep the giant poster...

I will let you draw your own conclusions

Can't see the cake
