Just that, dog and I locked in bedroom.Neighbours aware. He's a functioning alcoholic.Have asked him to leave, repeatedly.My home and I pay for everything.I believe in MNs terms he's a cock lodger.Have so had enough. I have to tell him to shower, brush his teeth etc. The loo is left in a disgusting state, shit and wee everywhere yet I'm the unreasonable one. Just want to see the back of him.

I have already ordered replacement remotes from Amazon, arriving on Monday.This has just strengthened my resolve, so he's not had the expected response.
Re: the car, he wanted to go to his sons and return in a few days to collect all his belongings.
My best male friend said that was just a ploy to get back in as, by then, I'd have calmed down, realised what a terrible mistake I'd made and welcome him back with open arms. 😆😂😆😂
Found more of his clothing suits and jackets.
He'll have to arrange for them to be collected.(not himself, obviously)
Damned if I'm packing them up and paying p&p.
Am watching The Following Events Are based On a Pack of Lies on laptop, BBC I player, in bed with dog snoring way.All is peaceful in my strange little world.
Again, thanks to all who responded, kept me going through today.
Photo of dog because I think he's gorgeous,

Glad to read he's gone! It must feel like such a weight lifted.

With an oopsie, look what I accidentally picked up how silly of me, as he tries to return the remotes 🙄

Beautiful picture of your dog 😍 Enjoy the peace and quiet of your new life!

May the fleas of a thousand camels infest him and his arms too short to scratch!!

Mummyoflittledragon · 03/09/2023 06:31

I’m so glad he’s gone. Now you can relax with doggie cuddles. 😍 He’s so tiny. I thought you were talking about a bigger dog, not that it would make much of a difference to the way that vile man was bullying him.

Nanaof1 · 03/09/2023 06:41

AAAwwwwww!!! Your dog is so adorable! He reminds me of the pup we used to have💔. A Norfolk Terrier.

What breed is he? 💙❤

CaptainMyCaptain · 03/09/2023 06:44

Well done OP. Enjoy the rest of your life.

Rainbowqueeen · 03/09/2023 07:03

Well done OP. You have done so well

Enjoy the peace

wateraddict · 03/09/2023 07:15

I have only just seen this thread, huge well done getting rid of him! I know this is a very minor point but lots of devices have remote apps for phones so you can use your phone as a remote in case you need anything specific before the delivery.

May your freedom be eternally sweet!

WitchDancer · 03/09/2023 08:37

I hope you've had a decent sleep in the knowledge he has gone. A bit of a pain him taking the remotes but nothing you can't sort. Gorgeous dog!

LuluBay · 03/09/2023 09:00

Gorgeous little dog! Wishing you both so much peace and happiness.

madmumofteens · 03/09/2023 09:01

Thank goodness he is gone OP your dog is adorable what a vile human being you are well rid!! Look after yourself 💐 all the very best for the future x

Yujismum · 03/09/2023 09:10

Your dog is so lovely. S/he is just right for cuddling. Lost my last dog a year ago, she was 15yrs. For health reasons I can’t have one right now but am aiming to asap. and your dog fits the bill! Enjoy life again, in peace.

Americano75 · 03/09/2023 09:27

Congratulations!

By the way, depending on the type of remote, there are apps you can download, I've got one for the firestick cos it always goes missing.

I love that saying. I first heard it nearly ten years ago. You aren't Zilly from TT by any chance? 😂

AvocadotoastORahouse · 03/09/2023 10:49

Well done OP. I hope you and your cute dog have a wonderful life from now on.

Yalta · 03/09/2023 12:06

Love your gorgeous dog

Something is seriously not right in the head of anyone who could even think of abusing him.

Lizzy53 · 03/09/2023 12:41

Hi where in UK are you.

Lizzy53 · 03/09/2023 12:46

Hope you kept car.he is a drink driver

RandomMess · 03/09/2023 14:35

Such a cute dog!!

Whiskeypowers · 03/09/2023 17:18

Your dog is absolutely scrumptious @Cinnamongirlinthesand
my abusive ex dropped a sofa on my beautiful dog and kicked her too. She is still here and beloved by me and the kids. He is not.

onwards and upwards 🥳

Cinnamongirlinthesand · 03/09/2023 17:32

Male dog is a Border Terrier x Pug, rescue.Found wandering the streets.
Woke up to sunshine, good omen for my new life.
Two walks by river and a fab lunch, life is looking good.
Hope everyone else has had a good day.
