juliette 'accidentally'

lubey the house thingy is a tricky one. I can take him to court but chances are I'll end up paying him more (possibly a lot more) than I've offered. My best hope is negotiation but he's such a total prick that could take years. It's been nearly 5 years so far though...

other thread has cheered me up and distracted me from the house mess though. am always happiest when thinking of ways to waste money:) the has also helped!

[OhWesternWind]

Juliette you are just digging yourself deeper . . .

Match is much better than PoF tonight. Not a lot of interesting ones at all on PoF but Match has given me a senior manager for a - get this - cake and chocolate company! That's my man. Sorry Mr Veggie, sling your hook.

[JulietteMontague]

Snape ok I just don't care

Velvet that sounds like an awful situation to be in. Is there any way you could afford to pay him enough to get rid and be free?

[VelvetSpoon]

Juliette he wants £50k, I've offered him £35k. I can pay him more, but as I've already given up on ever seeing any money from the DSs from him, and he spent £40k of our money in the 18 months between us splitting up and me cutting off his access to the joint account, I am reluctant to give him any more of my money. Which probably is cutting my nose off to spite my face a bit I know.

[OhWesternWind]

Velvet The way to think of it is to ask yourself it's worth £15k to you to have the situation over and done with. Only you will know that. Haven't seen your other thread - whereabouts is it?

[Snapespeare]

I'd be inclined to drop the offer by £1k a week. Just to underline what is at stake here.

[JulietteMontague]

Velvet what OWW said. I took the pay off route once to the lying money grabbing cunt someone who threatened me with court which would have cost me more even if I won and I couldn't take the risk. No more letters on the doormat was worth every penny.

[JulietteMontague]

omg I appear to be chatting to a really hot guy on okc

[VelvetSpoon]

Snape if I'd done that when I first made him an offer 3 years ago he'd be owing me money now In addition to the £500 a month he should have given me for the DSs during that time of course...

Western and Juliette I should be pragmatic, I know my dad would tell me to give him the £50k, and to tell him to stick it up his arse , but I just can't quite bring myself to. He has pissed so much of my money away I begrudge much more. Although tbh if he says he'll take £40k, then I would probably go to that.

My little other thread is here a bit of light relief from the earlier untidy house rage...on which note they have tidied and it is almost acceptable. It won't stay like it long but I have calmed down :)

[ohmyrainydays]

Aww the nice bloke just sent me this

"Im just letting u know on my part that id like to meet this girl who has me smiling alot again, the girl who i cant wait to talk to every day, the girl who has me intriged and excited. Lol sorry not meaning to be to full on in ur face. But u get the point "

[wetfish] for winefiend

[lubeybooby]

I refer you to the dating commandments, particularly number 2 and 3

1. Develop a thick skin;
   
2. Do not invest emotionally too soon;
   
3. It's all BS until it actually happens;
   
4. Trust your gut instinct;
   
5. If it is not fun, stop

[lubeybooby]

I was aiming the commandments more at ohmyrainydays but yeah I think anyone in whatever dating situation would do well to be following them.

we've all made knobs of ourselves on dates before, I know for definite a few times in my case I'm sure :o

[lubeybooby]

It does sound good apart from the apparent need for a [wetfish] now :o

[lubeybooby]

Sigh... I want a two day session. Not fair

This flirtation with a view to naughties at the weekend had better damned work...
