I can't believe the cheek of some people!

My exh's sister put a thing on her profile (yes I probably should not have done my monthly stalk!)... about how wonderful an aunt she is, some status thing going around. Then a distant relative who lives near me put down that exh's siter is a great aunt to her kids! The exh's sister used to go and visit those kids and not exh or his kids when we all lived together and we lived 2 minute drive from that woman... She has not seen his kids for nearly 4 years since he left, I am fuming at the blooming cheek of the woman! Well I can console myself with the fact that having someone warped like that in your life is not going to help anyways, it is the blooming weirdness of it that gets to me and people will think she is a great aunt too... I hope exh see's that and gets cross at her, she maybe did it to get at him who knows, it got at me anyways!

MummieHunnie, you know what Facebook is don't you?

It is the work of the Devil.

There is just too much temptation to keep an eye on exes, horrible family members and enemies who don't deserve your time and attention. It's like picking an old scab over and over; it will never heal until you manage to leave it alone.

My best suggestion to you is: try to laugh at this ludicrous claim because you know the truth and it doesn't matter what other people believe, and then hide her profile or however it works on Facebook and let her get on with her delusions. She is the loser here, not having your kids in her life. You are the winner: you not only have the kids, you don't have her for a sister any more!

I completely agree with Annie. I detest Facebook and all it stands for, but have come to the conclusion that many of its users are Walter Mittys who like to pretend that a) they really look like their airbrushed specialist photographs and b) they are living a fantastic life with an adoring partner, a loving family, a wonderful career and hundreds of adoring fans friends. The stories people weave on Facebook are about as authentic as Father Christmas, but the trouble is unless you are in a good place and can take a more pragmatic view, this nonsense can get you down.

So steel yourself and stop using FB - forever ideally - but at least until you're in a place where you won't combust when you read yet another complete fantasy.

You guys x I deleted many many people a long time ago and only have about forty friends on there now. I like to stay on there to keep in contact with certain people, for example, the children are on there and I like to keep an eye and I am friends with some of their friends and the freinds mum's etc which can all be very helpfull. I have my kids passwords, and they don't spend a lot of time on there!

There are some walter Mitty's wwifn (who ever he is) yes, not on my friends list anymore!

FB like many things can be used for good or bad!

I am fine today about it, it really annoyed me last night, that is who the exil's are fantacist people!

Are you tempted to post on her page the truth?

MummieHunnie · 20/12/2010 22:02

No! I actually showed the post to my children and turned it around, I told them to have a look, their Aunt does love them, sadly she is not able to show her love to them in a normal way, so I made some leomonade out of the lemons!

Should have known you'd manage to make a positive out of it :)

I blocked XH and his wife, family (except SIL, who's lovely) and friends (except one I'm still in touch with). This means I never see any of their posts, not even on SIL's page ... and they never see mine. It's just easier that way.
