Good luck at the Docs. Stay positive Smile

OhWesternWind · 07/12/2012 13:26

HE'S SIGNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't believe it. Feel like screeching and crying but I have to sit quietly at my desk. I am so relieved. Shaky and overwrought. Adios Ex.

God.

JulietteMontague · 07/12/2012 13:28

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and
Whohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So pleased for you Western, what a relief. Freedom! Grin

JulietteMontague · 07/12/2012 13:32

jaffacake2 you thought he was nice, he isn't. A good man doesn't dump you by text after a month and then start texting you to keep to on your toes. You have bigger things to occupy you today, so put yourself first and when you get back from the GP be kind to yourself and block him out.

Poppysquad · 07/12/2012 13:32

Common Jaffa you can do it. Don't give in. Do you want to be in a situation where you don't know whether he is seeing other women or not. Doubting things if he doesn't call or answer your calls. I am a one man woman and would feel pretty unhappy if this wasn't reciprocated.

I do hope everything is ok with you health wise. It's always stressful and you don't need this extra shit from someone who doesn't appreciate what a lovely woman you are. Chin up.

Nomorepain · 07/12/2012 13:33

Yay to Western!!

jaffacake2 · 07/12/2012 13:37

Thanks girls,am now off to Gp
Spent too much money this morning on outfit for a Bond party which is our works Xmas do next week.
Lovely long dress and pashmina from Monsoon,on credit card but just thought it was needed today.

OhWesternWind · 07/12/2012 13:41

Good luck Jaffa ((()))

MirandaWest · 07/12/2012 13:42

Hooray Western :)

lubeybooby · 07/12/2012 13:47

Hello all. I'm off out tonight with #1FWB as he shall be referred to from now on. Drinks, curry, laugh, shag... bring it on.

In a twist of fate, BC doesn't actually leave now til tomorrow, so I feel rather guilty as well as pretty gutted. But #1FWB is travelling quite a way for this so I'm not rearranging.

Jaffacake - what Juliette said... and good luck

Yogagirl17 · 07/12/2012 13:54

Congratulations Western that really fabulous news! I hope you will be celebrating tonight. SmileSmile

lulubellaboozle · 07/12/2012 14:04

Jaffa prize twunt showing his true colours, ignore him and delete his number from your phone. Good luck at the docs, we are all thinking of you, sending you loads of love and good wishes xx

Western thank god for that, must be a huge relief, hope you will celebrating tonight?

Having finally got my head back into a relatively normal place after stressful mediation meeting last week STBXH has started texting me telling me we must accept the very low offer on the house. He has been told so many times, and was told at mediation that I can't accept any offers until I know what my whole financial picture is and what I can do or rather can't do house wise. I have text him back repeating this for what must be the twentieth time and telling him I will not end up homeless to suit him. But it makes me feel sick, it's the ongoing bullying, doesn't matter what he's told, if the answer doesn't suit him and his needs he keeps up the pressure.

Luckily he has been told by the police if he harrasses me then he will be arrested again and charged as he is currently on a caution, so I have told him to leave me alone and hopefully he will realise he has too or risk being arrested again.

Mr Ex Army is hopeful he won't have to work tonight and can come over for the evening/night, but it is out of his control and he won't know if he is needed until the last minute. Could do with the company, cuddles and a bottle of wine and a good seeing to Grin

Snapespeare · 07/12/2012 14:21

Yay OWW

[party popper]

[gin!]

[more gin!!]

OhWesternWind · 07/12/2012 14:23

Rum I think will be the drink of choice.

KirstyWirsty · 07/12/2012 14:26

OWW Hurrah .. so the Cosmic Order Worked??? Grin

OhWesternWind · 07/12/2012 14:34

Yep, I had put the deadline as today so I wasn't holding out a lot of hope, then got the call at 1pm to say it was all happening. So it just squeaked in.

Need to do a cosmic order to sort out my love life now ...

Feel so much better. I honestly can't believe I'm finally shut of him.

ike1 · 07/12/2012 14:53

Oh thats just brill OWW. Jaffa its no wonder you feel vulnerable with that hanging over you! The likelihood is it will be breast mouse tho. You really dont need Mr Unpredictable in your life tho.

Snapespeare · 07/12/2012 15:03

Really pleased OWW! Well done. :-)
