I’m hoping this will be cathartic for others as well as me!

Happy birthday, dear friend. I would have loved to have spent it with you - or indeed, any time with you. But while we’re still friends on paper, in reality I haven’t seen you in years, even though I’ve done nothing wrong. I can only assume I trigger bad memories for you because I was your confidante when you got yourself into an awful situation.

It feels like you were the one who fucked up, but now you’ve got out of it, while I’m suffering the consequences. I love you and miss you, but I also resent you because I’m paying for your mistakes, so fixing things feels like an impossible dream. And that’s fucking painful.

Thank you to those of you who’ve read this - feel free to unload too!

I'm so sad. Today I saw what you really think of me.

Allthesnowallthetime · 29/07/2025 21:45

I miss you. I can't say it to your face because you died.

Anonomoso · 29/07/2025 21:51

You really can't see that while you were slating off how others bought up their children your own were becoming the most unruly, nasty, violent, vicious thugs.

Hideous crimes, 100% proven, tearing apart real victims lives, yet still you instilled in your kids it wasn't their fault.
Unfortunately for them the judges they stood before saw through it.

Their father was useless and you were no better.

You just couldn't and still can't accept that you were the maker of how your kids and your own life turned out.

There's something so wrong with you yet you can't see it, you're past help.

You really are a nasty rotten piece of work....yet make out you're one of life's victims. You dear lady, the term is used lightly, are a laughing stock.

MalcolmMoo · 29/07/2025 21:52

Dear “friend”.
Stopping moaning that everything is so hard for you. You’re 30. Your mum just bought you a £1.2m house. You have two other properties worth c£800k. Get some perspective and read the room.

Upsetbetty · 29/07/2025 21:52

Dear ex mil,

Truth be told…I never liked you. You’re a stuck up old cow. Too set in your ways and so fucking judgemental of anyone who
dares to live differently to you. You have no awareness of what other people go through, just because you found something easy…does not mean that they should too.
i don’t like hearing the same stories over and over again…it’s ridiculous conversation.
your son is not as amazing as you think…have you even asked him why I left…the REAL reasons (not the one he uses)!! I don’t think you have and if you think I should have stayed regardless then that speaks volumes about you more than I does about me. I DESERVE BETTER!!

Vallmo47 · 29/07/2025 21:52

A huge part of me died with you and 17 years later not a day goes by where I don’t think of you.

ThesophisticatedJY · 29/07/2025 21:54

Hi Mimi , thank you for telling all your lies to make me leave my job . You know you were protected by the family clique and could get away with it . A nasty little bully too . You know what you did .

Titasaducksarse · 29/07/2025 22:01

Dear friend
The one time I stood up to you, to not tiptoe around you because your feelings always felt bigger or more important than yours you just ditched me!
I listened to your victim shit for 18 years and should have addressed it before.
The one time the narrative wasn't about you and I challenged you you then turned it on me
You still couldn't apologise.

So fuck you.

Carry on fucking dodgy guys who you think make you an 'empowered woman'
..no, they'd fuck anything with a pulse. Ps...getting an sti from anal is not cool at over 60 years of age.

Betty91 · 29/07/2025 22:03

You're a fucking liar and manipulator - maybe other people continue to fall for your victimhood but you've alway known I don't which is why you've complained about me to anyone who'll listen for decades. You're the reason I don't have anything to do with the family anymore because it means seeing you. And seeing you ALWAYS ends up with a drama you've created. The stuff you say gets back to me - usually with someone trying to tell me off for some made up shit you've accused me of. You've lied too often and I don't think you'll ever change & you are full of shit. Your apologies are fake & so are you.

I'm afraid you're going to die because you won't listen to anyone and are as stubborn as anything. I can't imagine life without you, but there is nothing more I can do.

Can relate to this one

SayNoToStilton · 29/07/2025 22:07

It’s been 20 years since I saw you but I still think about you all the time and wish I hadn’t been such a dick. I would do anything to go back and to give it another try with you.

Monty27 · 29/07/2025 22:08

Dear close
Don't bring your flatmate round to my house when I invited you and proceed to talk about my really private stuff in front of her like she's my friend. I've met her 3 funking times in my life!
She's got fuck all to do with me 😡😡

Lesina · 29/07/2025 22:09

You were an utter cunt to me when I was 18 and I’m glad you are dead. I’m especially glad that the accident that you had left you unable to breathe and move unaided but with complete cognition. Glad you had to blink your eyes to agree for the machines to switch off. Karma at its finest. Rot in hell.

Oddsocksanduglyshoes · 29/07/2025 22:11

You are a self righteous, sanctimonious cunt. Just because you have the good fortune of being nauseatingly rich thanks to all the effort of somebody else, doesn’t mean you deserve it or have the right to sit on your self created pedestal. You are an evil wanker of the highest order and have damaged the lives of your entire family. You deserve to die alone. I hope you do.

KimHwn · 29/07/2025 22:14

I'm dreading you leaving for uni. I cry a lot when I go to bed and I imagine how it will feel when your bedroom is empty and I don't get to see your easy smile every day. I know it's the right thing for you, and I know I'll be okay after getting used to being without you, but I think you're one of the loveliest, kindest, most generous people in the world and it is an honour to be your mum. I will miss you every single day.

Fetchthevet · 29/07/2025 22:16

I should have held on and had the tests, then made the decision. I wanted to think it was the worse case scenario, because I wanted it to end. I wanted the sickness and fear and effort it took to carry on - to all go away. I'm so sorry if I made the wrong decision. I have to think the outcome would have been bad, in order to live with the decision I made. Please forgive me.

Fetchthevet · 29/07/2025 22:20

S, you are a pompous, stuck up and snobby woman. You are not a manager, you just pass the buck. I'm not doing any more of your work for you. Stop saying 'but as the Deputy...' No, you don't get to make me feel guilty just because you are too lazy to do your job. You get paid a manager's salary - I don't.

AragornsManlyStubble · 29/07/2025 22:21

You took my babies because you could. You didn’t want them, you just wanted to destroy me and that was the only way you could get to me. Well congratulations, you did destroy me, but I made damn sure you never saw how much you broke me, even though it’s now been years and I’ll probably never see my children again.

Apothecary266 · 29/07/2025 22:22

I love you. My feelings haven't gone away. I think you must choose not to see that as everyone else spots it a mile off.

TheFormidableMrsC · 29/07/2025 22:23

Shouldhavelovedathunderbird · 29/07/2025 21:40

You didn't need to lie when you decided that she was younger and you didn't fancy me anymore. You didn't have to lie that you weren't seeing her and had come back to me. You didn't need to send me an old photo of you and your mum as cover for seeing your OW. It would have saved me months of heartache and humiliation. I probably would not have PTSD and whilst I am sure you would have completely erased me, I'd not have felt like I was dying with confusion and grief. I see your new profiles proclaiming honesty and I wonder just what planet your brain is on, you lying, cheating toad.

Oh and OW; I don't know what he has told you, but not believing me is something you may laugh at now whilst things are rosy but deception never ends well. He has given everything up for you and you must feel like the most special woman to have walked the earth but he made me feel like that once over until he decided I was no longer worth it. Every relationship has ended like this for him. I know how you must have trashed me to him and he to you. You just remember me in 5 years time.

You have both ruined both mine and my childrens lives.

Solidarity. I wish you peace 💐

OpenThatWindow · 29/07/2025 22:25

He's never getting divorced, he's lying to you, he's a manipulative arse and you deserve so much better.
