@HolyCheeses if you are not going to tell him until next week, how are you communicating with him in the meantime? Do you think he has any inkling that you have changed your mind?

BB: But I’ve done a big shop and filled up the freezer! I bought a big bag of frozen sweetcorn for you and now it will go to waste as I don’t like it!
I did a spreadsheet of our food preferences, hours of work now pointless.

BB: You will never find another man as good as me. I worked hard to create this home for us and our families. You are throwing it all away and will end up old and alone. No-one else will ever want you.

He's unbelievable!

I'm going with "but I was going to ask you to marry me 😫💔"

But this was supposed to our home!

Scampuss · Today 19:24

@HolyCheeses if you are not going to tell him until next week, how are you communicating with him in the meantime? Do you think he has any inkling that you have changed your mind?

Yes big time. Although most of the messages are asking for decisions regarding design etc
Im sending occasional messages

BB. The dogs might have to be rehomed.

Just posting my Bullshit Bingos from the other thread as a PMK.

BS Bingo

"You do realize that this means the end for us" (Yes, yes I realize you will have already told him this. He'll say it anyway)

"Your DC will be so disappointed"

"We can always negotiate" (this will be said in an effort to get you 'in the door' at a lower rate and then demand you increase your 'contribution' after you have no place else to go)

@HolyCheeses Sorry if I've missed it, but do you know when you'll be speaking to him?

RaininSummer · Today 19:40

We have to wait until next week to hear his responses! This is worse than waiting for the next episodes of The Testaments to land.

Whatsappweirdo · Today 19:55

Enraged on your behalf op!

Dunnocantthinkofone · Today 19:57

I admire your scruples in a face to face dumping but I’m not at all sure he deserves them!
