As the name suggests, I am sadly (but not that sadly) doing a shiney penguin....

[sadlydoingshineypenguins]

Quick potted history. With boyfriend 9 months. Not that serious but we had had the exclusive talk. Met on a dating site.

About a month ago had a feeling something wasn't right. Few nights he was supposed to be here and cancelled for dopey reasons that set my spidey sense tingling.

Looked on the dating site and lo and beholdy there is was, active, having logged in in the last 24 hours.

But I am not as stupid as he thinks I am.

I set up a profile called thisblokeliesandcheats (it's been taken down) with all his details except photo and spelled out what he'd done (thanks whoever that was who suggested that one) and I will probably do it again

At this point he's said he's coming here Thursday night to stop for the weekend (he doesn't work Friday)

BUT he has also arranged to meet "Anna" off the dating site at a lovely new restaurant for lunch on the Friday about an hour away from here (half an hour from his house)

Obviously, I am Anna.

So, how long do I keep this going. My teeth are itching I want to tell him so much

Am also a little upset, but I had nothing invested in the relationship, so my pride has taken a hit and I feel a bit of a mug but other than that am grand.

Did you reply to his text about your day?

I would go with getting you mate to 'meet' him, dump him by text, and let him squirm. Then turn and you and 'Anna' go off hand in hand with a snog thrown in for good measure

marking my place too.

for you though

Pmsl at the "Who the fuck is Anna" flashmob!!!!
Where else but on MN!

Please don't do anything dull, OP. You have the opportunity for mass humiliation and mayhem here. Don't waste it!

Oh do the flashmob, do the flashmob! Are you in London? I'll come and I'll bring my boyfriend in drag.

What missmiss said! I'll do the same if you're in London

hahaha at the flashmob - it's brilliant in Ireland so sadly you are all too far away.

I just texted him back and said "dealing with a wanker it's very stressful"

I agree with Thumbwitch, it's best if he doesn't know Anna is you. Then he gets dumped twice and can't explain why, thus knocking his confidence.

So sorry OP.

This thread is hilarious though, love the nonchalant matching flashmob idea.

Oh I so wish you were in London!!!

You must do something dramatic and get video (youtube it) and photos

I'm in Ireland (Dublin), I'll join your flash mob, have the MIL staying at the mo. I'm sure I could rope her in too!

I hope shiney isn't offended

Never mess with the power of the hive mind of the nest of vipers, huh?

Are you on twitter? You could get some support there
I can link to your thread if you want me too!

I don't understand twitter but feel free to link to the thread Dolly

Why don't you turn up to the pub as yourself. Spot him and say "hello, fancy bumping into you". Then sit down opposite him and make polite conversation while watching him squirm and try to get rid of you.

Then dump him.

Just read your thread. Sorry to hear what a knobhead he is.

How about sending a granny along as Anna?

Or how about a "treasure hunt". Anna sends message, saying, sorry had to cancel, meet me at 3pm in such and such a place instead. Then, he gets there and there is a message saying to go to another location, and when he gets there, this is a big banner saying "X is a knobhead".

MardyBra - FFS woman, go easy, I'm low on Tena lady!

Anna flashmob!!

Thank you!

Ladies you are keeping me smiling which is difficult. Am feeling a bit more wobbly at the moment feel like a prize chump and all kinds of a mug for being taken in by him
