He ate the soup ...

I'm really ill, I've had an annoying cough for a few days which today has turned in to a snot fest. I'm tired. I've had a smear test this morning which they've found a few issues with my cervix, I've dragged my arse to Asda, where I bought myself a tin of tomato soup. I drove him 15 minutes away for a walk and picked him and DD up after they were done, had a bath and thought.. I've not eaten yet, I'll go and have that soup.

He doesn't really like tomato soup, in fact I can't recall him ever eating any, that's why I bought one tin. He likes chicken soup which there's 3 tins of as well as other random flavours in the cupboard.

He ate my tomato soup. Ffs. I don't know if this is light hearted or not but after a string of bullshit I'm just a bit fed up right now.

Great update I hope all goes well with the house

So, so sad. I know I'm late to this thread but I need to tell you what a warrior you are, and there is a better life for you and your daughter. You have been abused for years and now you're realising it. You need to plan your exit, your route to a happy life for you and DD. There's help out there for you. Go to your GP. Talk to Women's Aid. Talk to Citizens Advice about benefits. God I wish you well and hope you manage to leave.

I didn't get the house, it was going well for me apparently until the landlord recognised another applicant as his previous tenant...

Oh well! Onwards and upwards

So glad to read you are heading off a much better path in your life.

You and your daughter deserve so much more than living with that inhuman horror.

Wishing you the very best.

Yeah

Congratulations

I'm SO pleased for you OP! Onwards and upwards. I think you were just planning on leaving and not telling him beforehand in case he tried to manipulate you out of it? Is that still the plan?

Try and get your important documents (passports, birth certificates, insurance, banking) plus sentimental things out of your current place ahead of time so they're in a safe place outside the house. Can you trust SIL enough for that or is there anyone else you can trust instead in case that's "too close to home"? Also ensure you've changed your banking passwords so he can't steal your money. Put a password on your computer/iPad and if your devices are linked to each other then unlink yours to maintain your privacy.

Good luck for a better future - I really hope things work out for you. 🌹

notapizzaeater · 20/05/2022 20:20

That's brilliant news, just be careful now as he might ramp up

HazelBite · 21/05/2022 09:33
