apparently he's been able to clear his head - i'm like ok fair one, crack on do as you wish but i'm walking away.

hello have been out for a brief walk this afternoon as I had a bit of headache (combination of red wine and champagne?) and needed some fresh air.

Stayed in last night with dcs - watched Graham Norton, the South Bank fireworks, Hootenany and then I watched Madonna in concert for a while.

My long lie ins have now come to an end now though as I have to be up early tomorrow and very very early on Sunday for DS2 football. (groan)

Betty I then revert to afternoon naps - have only been able to do that as dcs have got older. How old are yours?

(waves at sponge - football in Shooters Hill on Sun morn.)

Nice to have some dates lined up.

Lou - is that a bit too soon? I suppose if he feels it he feels it but do you feel it too?

Eve sounds a reasonable evening for NYE in spite of doorman.

Monty - meant to say that my exh has zero involvement in the DSs football which puts it all onto me (it feels like an enormous burden tbh) One of the other parents called him the 'phantom'

Oh he decided yesterday he does want to see dcs this weekend after initially saying that he was too busy.

I'm like 'whatever' - so prob have unexpected pm and evening free. However when its like this can't plan anything so have given up. Not good for my social life but ultimately less stressful.

thesouthsbelle · 01/01/2010 17:30

is upsetting, apparently no one's ever said to him the stuff i have yeah ok then (ie that I think of much of him as I did EX) - well to be fair I think a sight lot more of him, but haven't admitted that bit. then said I needed to stop talking b4 I say something more I will regret later, he said no go on just say it. I ended the call.

sincitylover · 01/01/2010 17:33

ooh belle just seen this - you sound quite strong and in control - wtf is he playing at. He sounds all over the place.

Betty79 · 01/01/2010 17:46

belle-def dont let him get you to tell him how wonderful he is! he doesnt sound like he knows what he wants at all and that is not good for you and ds, cant beleive he's doing this too you again after the episode a few weeks back

scl-mt dc's are only 4 and 6 so although they are very good and i can get back into bed to watch tv and leave them to play/watch tv i wudnt go sleep

sponge-sounds like you had a nice evening

thesouthsbelle · 01/01/2010 17:50

I know betty - i'll be on msn in a bit so tell me there juicy as didn't read it.

my FB is deleted again for the mo - it's a matter of time now before his number goes from my phone, the sailor's has already.

Betty79 · 01/01/2010 18:26

belle i thought u had deleted ur fb again, why not just delete/block him instead anyway try to stay strong, there are better men out and he's isnt 'all that' if he can treat someone he cares about like this!

thesouthsbelle · 01/01/2010 18:38

exactly n apparently he does care n i'm fantastic to him knobend. what was that word we used before actually, assclown?

hatesponge · 01/01/2010 19:11

belle sounds like he is being a complete arse & that he really has no idea what he wants.

christmaseve · 01/01/2010 19:17

Belle, sorry to hear what a dick he is being. I really wouldn't let him play with your feelings this time.

thesouthsbelle · 01/01/2010 20:22

not going to eve. had 3 texts from him.....

soz I went out 4 a longer than expected run but i'm bk now. there are things I miss down there. it's work the area and the general routine I dnt miss.things there are massivly stale for me there. I do miss seeing u.that's not the issue and i'm sorry 4 giving the impression i'm like it with that too I do miss u but is it right to mess with ppls heads? x (text one)
ps yr txt u wanted t send. I only got half of it. I think i got what u were saying thou. x (text 2)
I got a bit more of it now, this is why I feel so shit with the way I am at the mo.

ho hum. twat.

betty - I spend too long there lol. every now n again I delete the whole lot to spend time in the real world with DS - around that time it's a full moon & the mobile goes off/house phone does so it's just me n the boy.

anyhow who's just watched dr who & NOT cried?!?

Remotew · 01/01/2010 20:28

DD's a massive fan but I don't watch it, she didn't cry.

Gawd I've got the new year blues today. Probably all the alcohol I consumed last night. Feel rough and it is a depressant. Hopefully feel better after an alcohol free day and a good sleep.

Those texts would annoy me. He's right it not right to mess with someones feelings.

Betty79 · 01/01/2010 20:30

belle-his texts are just trying to make himself feel better, if he really wanted to be in a relationship with u properly he wouldnt be thinking of moving away from you. I can imagine being at home has made him miss it, i live 250 miles away from my old friends and family and do miss them, when i go home i do wonder what it wud be like living back there but i wud never enter into a relationship with someone if i intended to move back. Had he ever mentioned it before?

Betty79 · 01/01/2010 20:34

eve-ive been feeling rubbish in the run up to xmas/new year so now it's over with i actually feel a bit brighter.

Mind u might be to do with fact i'm seeing mrjack tommorow night too

thesouthsbelle · 01/01/2010 20:35

he has on/off betty - but when we first started seeing each other he said he would feel like it was going backwards - and I basically talked him into it - well not into it but said you know it's not backwards look at what you've achieved being away iycwim. but this is the first time he's said he's looking for work outside of what he actually does. we're about 150 miles away, 2 hours roughly. I know how he feels used to have it all the time when we were posted to the arse end of beyond in wales for 3.5 years esp when DS came along, so I do understand the going home bit, but like wise understand the whole backwards step, and again understand the whole thing of thinking it's for the best doing it and then about 6 months later thinking omg what have I done it's the same here as it was there iycwim. it's his choice, as it's my choice to ignore him now.

eve - scandalous lol. how can you be a DW fan and not cry! just have again with the confidential bit lol.

thesouthsbelle · 01/01/2010 20:36

yay roll on tomorrow then. off to blazingstoke tomorrow to see DB for his birthday.

Remotew · 01/01/2010 20:38

DD did say it affected her and she did cry a bit at the confidential.

lou33 · 01/01/2010 21:15

i am not entirely sure he meant it totally seriously, more just a way of saying he was keen iyswim

thesouthsbelle · 01/01/2010 21:54

just signed up for my next OU course runs form end of jan to september - YAY! (sarcastic emotion) lol.

Monty100 · 01/01/2010 22:22

Dear dear Belle - he does run you a merry dance doesn't he.

Juice - did you snog??

Lou - how's Boris lol? Lourve that dog.

Eve - hangovers are downers.

Betty - Mr Jack is becoming very consistent no?

All quiet here, sloped off and had a bottle of chablis with bf from work today lol.

Arguing with dd now cos I came back and cooked a really nice dinner for us lot and she was really rude to me when I asked her about her sociology essay. I was only asking!!

lou33 · 01/01/2010 23:01

boris is sleeping on my bed, going tomorrow

FairyLightsForever · 01/01/2010 23:18

Hello everyone,
I had a really nice New Year. We went to a friends house party which meant that DD(nearly 3) could go to bed and DS(nearly 13) could beat everybody at the wii while I caught up with my friends.

Belle, I'm sorry things haven't worked out, you obviously deserve much better than him.

Lou, he's a fast mover isn't he?!

Betty, I hope you have a great time tomorrow.

everyone else, glad that NYs went well and fingers crossed for 2010!

I have been seeing someone for a few weeks, he's Canadian and 10 years older than me. He seems really nice and time passes really quickly when i'm with/ talking to him, which is quite positive. He's away at the moment, with friends for New Year, but i've had a couple of messages saying that he's looking forward to seeing me.
