Yes, keep out of his divorce. It seems to be all most men I go out with seem to talk about. It gets very very dull after a while. They are so bound up and hurt by it all and negotiating the money and children being used as pawns is so dreadful.

Also do the usual hold back sex until marriage offer.... may be... or is it too late for that.. I'm only joking. I'm just jealous.

I agree, keep out of his divorce entirely.

It's happening to someone else.

.....absolutely... in the presence of a chaperone too and then the "I couldn't possibly sleep with you until you've proposed..." Some women still do that. The risk is that they really might not like or be any good at sex so it's a bit of a risk but huge proportions of all kinds of the religions we have in the UK still hold to that. I also know women who want wedding rings and aren't even religious who think it works or the I won't move in with you until after the wedding as well. I suppose it's an incentive thing. Why marry anyone if you can have all you want without the marriage and (if you earn more as I know only too well) financial risk if you divorce, paricularly if you've been through one divorce already.

Sorry... get back to nice necklaces and sexy men and I'll get back to work.

Glad I found part 2....hey Amanda, sounds like you had a great time.

I have enjoyed reading this thread and hope 2007 gets even better for you but if i were you i wouldnt post a picture. Maybe I just come from too small a place but what if someone recognises him? I mean there has been a fair bit of detail written about whats happened in recent weeks and he may not be too happy to have his picture posted on a website. What if someone who knew his wife or kids saw it?

Judy1234 · 03/01/2007 11:14

Yes, wouldn't really want his children reading all these details probably.

well done Amanda! Excellent responses to the old bint.

Her children may have grown up but she's still a working mother

jampots · 03/01/2007 11:59

oh and please post one of you in your dress

maggiems · 03/01/2007 12:43

Sorry , I had assumed when you said that you asked him for one of both of you that you were planning on putting one of him on MN.

Anyway well done for standing up to that old jealous bag that you have for a boss.

Hello again, Amanda. Just seen your last post, your threads have been all over the place! Found it thanks to a link from justustwo. Yes, it is a sad situation. My Sister is on holiday (back tomorrow) and my Mum has had my Nephew. My Sister has been on the phone to Mum saying that "things are going to change, and she's going to be more dedicated to her Son." Heard it all before, unfortunately, but I hope this time, she keeps her word. I've told Mum to have him less too, she's making it too easy for my Sister. She has suffered depression, but mainly it's alcohol she has a problem with.

bluesky · 03/01/2007 14:34

Amanda1, great reply! You are in such a confident and happy phase now, I really don't think she can get to you. Wishing you lots of luck and happiness x

Thanks for your post, Amanda. I wouldn't say she's an alcoholic, as such, but then it's hard to tell, as she's so in denial about everything, and we only ever get her version of events.

By the way, in case you're wondering who the hell MummyPenguin is - it's me, SSDY, I've changed my name!

Enjoy your evening. Yeah, what the hell you can call him DP!! Don't worry about your no booze pledge - I've pledged to eat sensibly and get back to the gym and I've done neither!

pindy · 04/01/2007 08:55

Oooh thank god I've found you again.

Right now to catch up - I thought my life was over!!!!

Coffee at the ready and I will start reading..................
