A friend of mine whom i hadnt seen for approx 18months managed to get my number off a mutual friend (that was no probs) we'd lost contact after i had ds and she moved towns with her bf (who id never met) so i was quite suprised and happy when she phoned!
so off i went into town and met up with her and i had ds (aged 2) with me in his buggy, and i asked "fancy going for a cuppa?" and she turned around and said "oh i cant sorry im waiting for this guy to get back to me with my coke" me being naieve thought she d ordered a coke from the pub which was just across the way (opposite castle gardens in swansea) then she said "can you believe it... £40 for a bit of coke?" i then realised what she ment so i said "listen i didnt meet you to talk about drugs and especially for you to recieve them whilst me and ds are with you" i walked off from her really angry.
i later heard from friends that she was telling everyone that i ve gone off in a huff because she s free and able to do what she wants and i was jelouse because i have ds in tow all the time also that i ve threatened to go to police etc.

i didnt have a clue she was even on drugs untill then and i certaintly dont want to even know about it let alone be with her when she gets them. but now the rumors have got outta hand and apparently if she comes near me i ll beat her up!!

im sooooooooooo annoyed she can do that.
was i too harsh or too abrupt with her??

not too harsh, especially if you had your DS with you!

Let her start stupid rumours, she must look a twat.

Not too harsh. She's a loon - especially with the rumours and stuff. People will get the measure of her soon enough, if they haven't already.

not harsh enough imho.

Sounds like typical coke head behaviour to me. Explain to your (sensible) friends that you weren't happy putting your family into that world. They'll understand and if they know her they'll probably know she's good at making stories.

i was in a pub with my dh once, without the kids, and a friend of mine walked in, with her two children in tow, and sat them down at the bar and got them a couple of cokes. as in colas .now for me, that was shocking enough. And then in walks this man, she introd me to him, and i asked if she was seeing him - he was about 20 y=rs older tno, han her but you know, whatever floats your boat, and she said 'no, he's my drug dealer, i;m just getting some pills for the weekend.'
at least your ds has you to protect him from this shit, my mate seemed to think it was fine to collect drugs with her children with her. it was 6 years ago, i am still in a bit of shock!
no, you totally weren't unreasonable.

She's just making shit up because you (quite rightly) put her in her place. She can hardly say what actually happened, which is that you were dignified but made it clear you were disgusted with her.

Just tell anyone who matters to you that knows her what did happen, and if anyone suggests you said other stuff that you didn't, make it quite clear who's likely to be the reliable witness.

she's not very discreet is she? YANBU and behaved appropriately.

Kimi · 27/02/2009 20:36

stay well away, YANBU in the least, she will end up dead in an alley somewhere,
I think people will not take much notice of what a coke head says

YANBU, don't bother meeting up with her again. I'm sure if you tell your friends what happened they are more likely to believe you than a "coke-head".
