AHh, OK, am clear now...

FFS!

OP, Comfort, seriously, these people are in their 30s, late 30s?

Your DP mate was out with another good friends wife, and the hubby found them. The mate (paul) told DP about it, but obviously not his own girlfriend.

You told pauls GF that the other couple Doris and whoever wouldn't be coming out cos they've fallen out with Paul....

Your DP is not standing up for you? Well, sorry to be so blunt, but it's late and it's taken so much effort to get to a place where we all understand what's going on, but FUCK HIM!

You are perfectly well within your rights to stand on a very tall pedestal and tell them all to stop being so infantile, to face up to their responsibilities of the relationships they have; that you are all in your 30s and not in your flaming teens. If 'Paul' wants to fuck about, he either does it well away from his own doorstep, and takes every possible precaution not to be found out. If he hasn't got the balls to tell his GF it's over before going off and having a drink with another man's wife, then he is the wanker in the pile and not you.

Your DP needs a damned good telling off, and a it's them OR me ultimatum. Right now, they none of them seem worth a toss.

OMG this is SOOOO Funny!!

VengefulKitty · 24/11/2009 22:49

Oh this thread is making me piss myself!!!!

groundhogs · 24/11/2009 22:50

Heated...... squinty eyes... don't confuse me, please.... i'm pretty much there....

DuelingFanjo · 24/11/2009 22:50

I get it. Your friend should be pissed off with your husband, not you. If it was meant to be a secret then your husband shouldn't have told you or at least should have told you to keep schtumm. really though the buck stops with the guy who was presumably cheating, and no one has any right to blame you for innocently passing on info he wanted your husband to keep quiet about.

they all sound like idiots.

AnyFucker · 24/11/2009 22:52

is this Paul fit ?

DuelingFanjo · 24/11/2009 22:52

Groundhogs said what I wanted to but so much better than I did!

FluffyPumpkins · 24/11/2009 22:53

Pauls a Twunt!

VengefulKitty · 24/11/2009 22:54

And you say you have been there before with this friend (Paul I assume)? Does he make a habit of fucking about??

They need 2 words. GROW UP!!

Make theat 4 words. GROW THE FUCK UP!!!

Vengeful: snort Snort, crying laughing!

VengefulKitty · 24/11/2009 22:56

That's the spirit comfort! You go girlfriend!

Heated · 24/11/2009 22:59

So everyone knows about dp's bm's shagging around with mow, including the hb who called him out - except dp's bm's gf. You have said something to dp's bm's gf and are getting grief from dp for betraying the lying scumbag.

Get out sisterhood badge, don doc martins, spray paint bridge, invite gf to live with you and put dp in shed. Simples.

AnyFucker · 24/11/2009 22:59

comfort, we are on your side, honest love

perhaps you could come back in the morning when you have sobered up you are feeling calmer

we are not always this sarky

groundhogs · 24/11/2009 23:01

comfort, darling, you did absolutely nothing wrong. Your DP has let you down somehow on this.

Give it a few days, it'll all calm down eventually. At least the truth is out and it's better for all really.

Important piece of advice? Hold your position, you have right and reason on your side. It is NOT your responsibity to mind-read and cover up the indiscretions of others.

The view from the moral high ground is fabulous... If anyone says anything to you, tell them FFS, sort yourselves out, stop acting like kids. And refuse to discuss it further.

When it is calmer, take your DP to one side and explain to him what has happened, i.e that someone has cheated and he has covered up for them, and that is WRONG. Say to him that if he ever betrays you again, then it'll be a much more serious situation than it is right now.

Don't take this infantile behaviour, tbh, it's beneath you.

best of luck, and good for you to want to be there for your friend....

groundhogs · 24/11/2009 23:02

Seriously, Heated, I'm gonna report you....

groundhogs · 24/11/2009 23:03
