Okay, so, we all have these thoughts; things we know we DEFINITELY are being unreasonable about and yet we can't help but think them.

This is that thread. A chance to say whatever you want judgement free. You know it's silly, you know it makes no sense but it's how you feel. Feel free to share! It might make me feel a little less crazy.

I'll go first...

My best friend gave birth to twins today and I am INSANELY jealous. Simply because I want twins. I know it's stupid, I know I likely won't even have twins but I want them so badly and now she has them. I feel like she's stolen the twin dust and there will be none left for me!

Like I said - just somewhere to post how you're feeling consequence free Smile

My MIL was an awful to me, since I got together with her son as a teenager. She was part of the reason that I divorced my ExH. Not just because I didn't want her in my life anymore, but because all the awful and abusive traits he developed that I think came from her. She died recently. I'm glad I never have to risk seeing her again, but I think that makes me an awful person.

The only person I hate more is his stepmum, she had a god complex and wanted to be the most important woman in her stepsons lives. She hated me for no reason and made it very clear, but not in front of the men, god forbid!

I don't even hate the ex anymore. He was fucked up by the adults in his life

I kissed a girl ,, but I didn’t like it

cadburyegg · 28/07/2022 21:51

I've been sexting a married man the last few days and it's taking all my willpower to not sleep with him. This is very unlike me, my moral compass is usually very strong!

WheresTheLambSauce · 28/07/2022 21:52

I’m a fully-fledged adult who still indulges in elaborate power fantasies about my favourite fictional worlds in order to cope. It’s like having a private cinema in my head - makes waiting in queues far less boring :)

Rockmehardplace · 28/07/2022 21:53

I fancy my therapist.

This did happen to someone I knew. It was incredible, she got over a million.

Lucky woman. I keep hoping lol.

mrshiddleston69 · 28/07/2022 21:58

Same, only every few years. I've just finished The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous and Appassionata, onto Wicked now..!

Penscombe was my safe, happy space during all of 2020/21. Felt like I was escaping into the "real world"!

Thecheatswife · 28/07/2022 22:02

I hate the woman my husband had a 3.5 year internet/ Whattsapp/ Kik affair with. And I mean I really hate her. I’ve never physically seen her, but genuinely would gain great pleasure from something dire happening to her.

I actually hate him too. However, im not prepared to make me and the kids financially suffer by getting rid of him. I tried that, and it was hard. So he’s here, because I like/need his money. Sometimes he really makes my skin crawl.

He thinks I have forgiven him. It’s far from it. I can’t get it out of my head. Eventually I will do the same to him Only it will be physical. I’ve no loyalty to him any more. He certainly didn’t show any to me.

Ortega888 · 28/07/2022 22:02

Omg having read these posts I am now looking at friends and family thinking who are they really and what are they really thinking. 😢

Parentsofaprincess · 28/07/2022 22:08

As always!

Welshgal78 · 28/07/2022 22:08

AIBU To think most women would think my lack of beauty habits abnormal

Inspired by a confessions thread I saw on MN earlier. I shower and wash my hair regularly but I've never shaved my legs higher than under my knees, I don't shave my armpits and only have a trim from time to time downstairs and I've never had a single hair on my eyebrows touched with tweezers or anything else.

Am I really strange or can anyone else say the same. I was with my first husband for 11 years until he died and I've been with my 2nd husband for 8 years now and had a few boyfriends over the years and never had any complaints (to my face at least) But I've always wondered if other women shave and tweek a lot more than me.

NeedToLeaveNow · 28/07/2022 22:09

Parters family are c*s !
They have made up some awful lies about me and made mine and partners lives hell
What they have done to my partner is unforgivable !
Truly awful

Welshgal78 · 28/07/2022 22:10

Sorry I thought I was starting a new thread, I don't post much

mackthepony · 28/07/2022 22:10

I have to admit I wear low cut /tight tops when I have a one to one Teams with my boss.

TrashPandas · 28/07/2022 12:02

I haven't seen my father in over 20 years. I want him to die so I can contest the will. I don't even care about the money, I just want to upset his wife and her family as much as possible.

Same here! My ‘father’ walked out when I was a child and I know he’s remarried but without biological kids. Can’t wait for the day he passes and hopefully I can take every penny from under them. Probably donate it or something, I don’t actually want it I just want to piss them all off

idontwantthislife · 28/07/2022 22:13

I watch gay male porn
I watch gangbangs with creampies and i wish it was me.

I hate my neighbours so much i daydream ways of getting rid of them.

I dont fancy my dp anymore im only still here cause i cant be arsed to parent alone.

the80sweregreat · 28/07/2022 22:13

I have only started doing the eyebrow thing recently. I like my wax and tint and a chat to the young beauty therapists who tell me about their boyfriends and how horrible they are mostly ! Makes me feel young and has improved my looks ( only very slightly !!)
I can't pluck or tint my own for love nor money.
I shave my own pits and legs etc.

StClare101 · 28/07/2022 22:14

I also have an ongoing cinema in my head. I’ve always been a daydreamer but now I can control it and make up little fantasies that make me happy.

I do not want to hear about your dog. I honestly don’t give a flying fuck.

I read erotic fiction to get me in the mood.

LittleValleyOverNearSlice · 27/07/2022 23:51

I assume not, for numerous reasons, but I'm absolutely not willing to test that out, so there's been a degree of distancing going on. The annoying part is that there was a time, quite a while ago before they were married, where it might have been, but things were complicated back then. But that means there's a tiny part of my brain that's going "SEE! Remember that? If things were different it COULD work!" and I have to mentally slap it upside the head and tell it not to be so daft.

Its the mixture of prohibition and past might have beens that fuel that...if he was still available would you still have that crush? Who knows...

Namechanged4diz · 28/07/2022 22:17

I am besotted and adore my Greyhound. I can't actually remember if I adored my Dd as much when she was a baby Confused I must have, surely? But he is less complicated , doesn't cry in the night doesn't grow up to back chat me etc lol. I think he is certainly the best thing on four legs and obviously superior to anyone else's pet. Yup totally and utterly besotted.

He is best doggo. I tell him I love him more than my husband. Certainly he is told he is handsome and gorgeous more than I've ever said to DH. 😜

Namechanged4diz · 28/07/2022 22:19

Sorry @StClare101 Grin

Firesidefox · 28/07/2022 22:20

An increasing number of adult women now say they have ADHD.

I don't believe a single one of them.

CanYouNotReadTheSign · 28/07/2022 22:25

I have two FWB. I don't give a fuck.

guiltyassin · 28/07/2022 22:26

I'm really sad that Neighbours is ending tomorrow.

Even though I haven't watched it for over 10 years.
