Continuation of the thread of the same name 😁

So glad you are well and moving on OP. At this stage I would be tempted to play along to some extent, tell him it's a shame to throw away what you have built, maybe you can both work through differences, his offer to add you to the house was a good first step and praise him for it. Say now you both need just a bit of time to think through things and work things out...Maybe you could both aim to have a think and then date night in a week...be a shame if you had a family emergency and had to postpone...keep stretching it out until you go.

I'm worried that he will try to get revenge, frustrate your plans or make it nasty, it makes sense to keep things moving along on his terms until you have moved out, you are right not to tell him about the new place.

Good luck!

@Everythingwillbeokk

Oh! I'm thrilled to read your updates.

Just two little weeks to keep quiet and you'll be out of there.

Here's to the rest of your life x

MellowPanda · 14/10/2024 21:10

Great to hear op! Keep up the good fight 💪

AcrossthePond55 · 15/10/2024 01:34

@Everythingwillbeokk

Your update really made me smile. So glad you got the house!

You've got a great plan going. 'Stealth', all the way.

Upwards and onwards, to freedom!

Mummyoflittledragon · 15/10/2024 04:52

That’s fantastic news. You’re absolutely doing the right thing by keeping your cards close to your chest. I would just be bland until you move out.

Fraaahnces · 15/10/2024 05:41

I'm so proud of you @Everythingwillbeokk. Please look at security video cameras when you move in also. I wouldn't put it past him to be angry about having to pay for his own lifestyle.

Trixiefirecracker · 15/10/2024 09:01

Really lovely to hear this update. Wishing you well with everything. You are brilliant.

PeggyMitchellsCameo · 16/10/2024 14:06

Hope your week is going ok OP!

Savingthehedgehogs · 16/10/2024 14:11

You are doing really well op!! Slowly but surely wins the day

ClockworkDisaster · 17/10/2024 07:45

Glad you got the house. I am sure it will be the perfect safe landing place for you and your children until you can buy a house for yourself again.

SurelySmartie · 17/10/2024 11:08

Great update and progress op. Hope it’s continuing to go well this week.

Mix56 · 19/10/2024 13:21

How are your plans advancing OP ?

Fraaahnces · 19/10/2024 13:22

Really hoping to hear that @Everythingwillbeokk is nestled safely in her new home, settled with her furniture arranged perfectly and a glass of bubbly in her hand.

PeggyMitchellsCameo · 20/10/2024 15:47

Hope your weekend is going well @Everythingwillbeokk

travelforthesoul · 23/10/2024 06:42

Wishing you the best of everything in your new home. I hope you are ok @Everythingwillbeokk

Deloresmonroe · 24/10/2024 23:36

I hope you’re ok @Everythingwillbeokk let us know you’re safe when you get a chance

BettyBardMacDonald · 27/10/2024 11:15

How are things going, OP?

Fraaahnces · 28/10/2024 21:27

Good grief! The poor woman is moving house, settling her child, dealing with a despot, etc…. She doesn’t owe us anything!

OlderGlaswegianLivingInDevon · 28/10/2024 22:42

I guess the Op may be getting the keys on Thursday - being 1st of the month and having been told it would be around a 2 week process.

I can't remember which weekend she does / doesn't have her children and whether that will make a difference ?

So hopefully ' we ' may get an update next week ?

PeggyMitchellsCameo · 01/11/2024 07:54

Do you ever follow a thread on here and wonder what happens? This isn’t about the OP at all.

Deb13b · 04/11/2024 15:48

I wonder if OP is OK.

Deloresmonroe · 04/11/2024 20:18

Hopefully she has moved house now and maybe doesn’t have internet access yet 🤞

PeggyMitchellsCameo · 09/11/2024 12:49

Out of all of the threads on here, this is the one where I wish I knew the OP had moved on and was fine.
Not demanding an answer, by the way.
But isn’t strange how we get drawn into to a particular life story, and cheer on the OP, and then have no idea of the outcome.
I hope OP is fine and moved on.

Absolutely this. I am checking daily for updates.

I am completely aware that the OP owes us nothing & I hope that she’s in her new place & too busy settling in to think about posting here.

But still, I’d love to know she’s ok.

OlderGlaswegianLivingInDevon · 09/11/2024 17:27

aw I am really hoping to hear it all went ok, too. ?@Everythingwillbeokk

I didn't think the op wasn't genuine, tho she was accused of it earlier in this thread so I am hoping she is just busy and maybe the house wasn't ready/available for 1st Nov ?
and of course she doesn't have her children every other weekend so may have chosen not to move in right away ?
