Put off Relationships.

Reading MN is putting me off having a relationship.

I know it's not real-life but it must be some reflection.

The resentment on the step-parent forum is one of the things that has put me off.

Unless there is a woman out there who, won't object to my children coming first, and that I spend a lot of time with them, doesn't mind my love of beer, and my love of sports I reckon I'm going to be single for a bit longer yet.

Well you've took a leap of indignation then.

I loathe the term Disney Dad, it's always aimed at NRP's on here so my dig was at the poster saying it to me. Not at NRPs.

Too subtle perhaps.

I also don't like the term non-resident-parent either.

MIL and DIL relations:

She trreats dh like a child that she knows best cos she is older, that my home is her property cos she looks after dh as he is her child, that she loks aftter dh better than me, that she is better than me and the most annoying is that she can be disrespectful to me but as soon as i enforce my boundries its ww3 and she trys to involve the whole family. Its all about control and power and being Alpha in the family lol

So MIL are lovly but mine is a pita.

Agreed on NRP, people are obsessed with putting labels on everything.

There's hope for you yet. OP. I met DP online. We both have kids. The kids come first. We drink beer together. We've watched football and rugby together and messed up golf. We're both in your neck of the woods!!

It only takes one person to make only dating worthwhile, and a lot of it is down to the site you choose.

Personally I hated match, full of international jet setting business owning sports car driving arseholes looking for someone to travel the world with.

I just wanted someone with a sense of humour who would play knockabout on the local field. I got him, but not from match! Grin

I'm the OP.

Sorry, didn't get banned at all.

Just name changed as Fathers were being goaded to react to try and get them banned.

And as it looks like Dadsnet has been wiped out of all useful existence.

I'll disappear back into anonymity.

And I'm still on Mumsnet.

I name-changed as I had an email from MNHQ that my posts were getting reported. And that I was targeting posters.

I've searched my posts and I've seen a lot worse. I had one deleted.

I've had 100s of posts since and no problems at all. Basically I think I was being goaded to try and get me banned.

Why would you deliberately post to be offensive?

What's the point?

Isn't that against the guidelines?
