dd1 got home about 1am, so i went to bed and kind of slept, but i feel shit still

v asked me to go round there tonight to hang out with him and a friend of his, but i am not in hte mood

Janos · 03/05/2009 19:20

Yep scl that's just how I feel!

Oh lou how grotty. Really hope you sleep better tonight.

Janos · 03/05/2009 19:24

When I say just how I feel, I mean about DS going away! But also about the exbf too.

lostinthecitylover · 03/05/2009 19:42

reckon we could all do with some tlc atm - I do find it hard to admit that or ask for it.

And as single parents you can actually run dry I think

When the woman in the co-op was ultra nice to me today I felt like bursting into tears - I know it's a passing mood but made me realise how I felt.

Felt like that towards one of the midwives after having DS1 - touched that someone was so nice to me. Actually I was married then so maybe not much difference in support levels LOL

Janos · 03/05/2009 19:51

Yes you come to expect crappy behaviour don't you. I was alwyas surprised when ppl were nice to me!

NervousNutty · 03/05/2009 20:17

God this thread moves fast, i can't keep up.

All quiet again here, except for the toyboy who is still bluffing and still attatched.

I must make an effort to read this thread mor often so I know what is going on with everyone and can comment.

NervousNutty · 03/05/2009 20:17

I find it very hard to admit that I need help, feel lonely or anything like that.

'I'm fine thanks' is my default setting and I use it alot.

lou33 · 03/05/2009 20:22

i just had a friend pop round who hadnt been informed of my dramas this weekend

she was v nice and told me off for not asking for her help lol

NervousNutty · 03/05/2009 20:35

Ah it is nice when that happens Lou

lou33 · 03/05/2009 20:50

yes
my house is a slum tho

she wanted to take me for a drink but i said no, not up to it, aside from the fact my stomach is killing me from the stress of the weekend, i just feel like staying in

Remotew · 03/05/2009 21:06

I typed a long message before and the PC crashed.

I was saying that everyone seems down atm and sending positive vibes.

It's hard moving on when you have feelings for an ex. I've been there and hurt a couple of people simply because they weren't him.

To Janos, and everyone going through hard time with the fathers of the DC's, how awful it must be having someone trying to interfere with the most important relationships we will ever have. I know they feel they have just as many rights but it's a sad if the DC's are affected.

Yes ASBM the foreigner has bfs. I'm off men atm they are all running away rapidly.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 03/05/2009 21:28

Yup thats him lol.

I have just agred to share a bottle of wine with him, but don't panic, he will either not reply or reply but change subject lol.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 03/05/2009 21:56

nutty???

OP posts:
NervousNutty · 03/05/2009 22:00

He has a gf.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 03/05/2009 22:02

what?
when did this come to light?
does he live with her?

OP posts:
NervousNutty · 03/05/2009 22:04

Oh he slipped it into the conversation a few weeks ago and when I said he hadn't told me , he said I hadn't asked. He had defaintly had at least one oppurtunity to tell me though.

They don't live together no, and i think he said he'd not been seeing her long.

He still wanted em to go round anyway (or said he did) but I said no.

Anyway we hadn't 'spoken' for a bit and then he mesaged me yesterday so I am calling his bluff.

He won't actually arrange for me to go round for a drink though as we have been over this several times and he never actually gives me his addy or number or anything.

NervousNutty · 03/05/2009 22:08

Oh hmm maybe not bluffing then ooops lol.

Remotew · 03/05/2009 22:11

How much younger is he than you? tbh I wouldn't bother with him if he has a gf, not worth it. I always ask outright from the outset.

Nothing wrong with a bit of fb chat though.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 03/05/2009 22:12

this is all very weird
would you be interested tho?

OP posts:
NervousNutty · 03/05/2009 22:15

He is 8 years younger.

He is a really nice bloke, and we got on really really well at work but not sure if anything else would work. If he didn't have a gf then i think going for a drink or whatever would be fine to just see how we got on.

Gonna ask if he does still have a gf.

lou33 · 03/05/2009 22:20

lol has he given you his address then?

NervousNutty · 03/05/2009 22:20

Lol no he still hasn't. I am still not sure he actually will.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 03/05/2009 22:23

are you still in touch via fb or mobiles?
