Why not? It’s the woman talking about parentified women and entitlement? I think I posted it in two threads because I couldn’t remember who asked for it.

PrizedPickledPopcorn · 27/04/2026 06:59

I’ve reported and asked it be deleted, I’ll try another way.

SardinesOnButteredToast · 27/04/2026 07:37

Very glad you escaped this one. Absolute grabby fecker.

chaosmaker · 27/04/2026 08:22

So glad you ended it and he showed you that you were right about him. He sounds yuck and I hope other women avoid him like a plague on their assets!
Even more glad you feel like a weight has been lifted from you. Definitely a sign that you needed to leave.

so he coudav this and coudav that but when was the correct time to give you proper info, he just came with lies and half truths. Even to the end this man was not sure what he really wanted to do, but one thing for sure, he wante full control over your life, money and time

Yes... its also the time taken up with going over design choices, and renovation labour, whilst OP's own house needed work before she sold... That would have affected her sale price (I'm just guessing)and then he wants her to have sold up in two months and start paying towards his household. And how much free labour would he have donated to help her achieve that sale and move I wonder. How much would he be doing the hour and something drive over to put in some hard work on her behalf I wonder. Even if his "financials" were reasonable and acceptable to OP... there's still a red flag in his theft of time and energy,

but there's never any gratitude from a cheeky fucker when they finally get a No. Just nasty comments about how you've let them down... because these characters are only ever focussed on themselves.

I'm glad you are feeling at peace. It does appear to be a very lucky dodge.

Hope you have a wonderful care free week OP x

Screenshot the post and comments..
you can report untrue statements that are defamatory, or intend to damage your reputation to Facebook (three dots in the corner of post) and you may be able to get the post removed or the account frozen temporarily,

Screenshot the post and comments, in case it continues.

It's the hallmark of a grifter to public ally protest that they are the biggest victim..

Just to clear that up
Prized Pickled Popcorn mentioned a podcast which discussed about how some types of men ended up getting their partners to assume a sort of parent role, probably more commonly known on MN as "wife work"

I apologised for side track from OP's thread and asked if she had the link.

I don't know what was said in the recently deleted posts.
But there was nothing in the original post that mentioned the podcast that was anti OP as far as I recall.

Found the podcast by googling anyway. Not sure why this has caused a problem.

Edited

I got it deleted as it was asking people to sign in to FB. The one I linked wasn’t the same as yours, SplatterPuff, but I’m sure the message was the same!

AdarajamesAgain · 28/04/2026 19:46

Well done you! What a bloody marvel you are, with too much self respect to waste your time and money on a gold digger!
Enjoy the freedom and time to spend with friends and doing what YOU want to do. I'm so impressed with you and glad you are feeling peaceful and OK about it 💐

So no messages of undying love? Just a slightly adjusted lodger/housekeeper/nursemaid invoice?

What?!! 😆😆😆

Is there a separate column for how much he loves you?

After being horrible to you, nast messages, Facebook posts, he feels you will be unaffected by all that and a new spreadsheet is the answer.

PiglingBlandings · 29/04/2026 08:51

Excellent. How satisfying that he is so predictable! Tell him you’re sure he can find some other mug to fund his life, who won’t actually end up poorer as a result.

And feel free to point out the whining FB post, the lack of any actual feeling (other than rage over finances) romantically plus the blanket blocking, do not a loving partner make. Noooo thank you.

frozendaisy · 29/04/2026 08:52

Send one back for your design hours.

Add on per hour charges (make them nice and expensively unreasonable) for housekeeping duties, parental care, taxi services, cooking, gardening, shopping and errands.

I don't like being too inquisitive as this is real people's lives but I am totally with @frozendaisy . What could he possible have adjusted that he thought would change tour mind????!!!! How did he send it you? A hardcopy through the letterbox? An attachment via email? Via WhatsApp? Any accompanying messages?

Would we ever get the chance to actually laugh at this guy so he could see us all laughing? What is he thinking??!

DeadBug · 29/04/2026 08:53

Shame you can't post the original spreadsheet under his Facebook post about you. X

HolyCheeses · 29/04/2026 08:54

No mortgage

Other bills magically minuscule- the food bills gone from Fortnum and Mason to too good to go cobbled dinners (my favourite !) The rest is still the 50:50 though 🤣

He thinks I’m as thick as pigs shit!

I am totally agog. And i am not even the one sent the spreadsheet.
How are you? So many feelings must be coursing through you?

PrizedPickledPopcorn · 29/04/2026 09:02

We need to add spreadsheets to The Script.

Or maybe we need to start all dates/relationships with a spreadsheet. Rather than writing wedding vows, we could write spreadsheets then compare them to assess compatibility.
