I don't think there's any chance of reconciling with my ex....

Poffedoff · 03/01/2014 17:50

Thanks flo, not sure how gracious I'll feel when all this sinks in properly though... would anyone be tempted to message him? Demand some kind of response? Just think he's getting away with all this very lightly!

powpow80 · 03/01/2014 17:55

Poffed you'd probably feel worse if you messaged and he didn't reply. Doesn't sound like he is man enough to get back to you with a decent explanation.

kscience · 03/01/2014 17:55

Poff don't worry about him getting away with it or not, just concentrate on how you are doing...and move on

Right ladies and gents I am off out with the girls..... have a good night all

LiesDamnLiesandSoggybiscuits · 03/01/2014 17:55

Oooooo.....Just done that image search thing on google with someone who messaged me on POF. The dirty little liar!!! What do I do now??

LiesDamnLiesandSoggybiscuits · 03/01/2014 17:56

Have a good night science

Poffedoff · 03/01/2014 17:59

Powpow funnily enough I've spent the day thinking the same thing, its one step away from getting his mate to break it off with me for him!
Master I could do with more of your attitude and less of my softly, softly (weak) one...
Feel like such a pushover right now, really need to grow some balls and develop thicker skin!

Poffedoff · 03/01/2014 18:03

And yes Powpow, I agree that I would only end up twice as frustrated if he didn't reply to another message... finger has been hovering over watsapp, ready to delete but keep stalling, hoping he might message...why I don't know as no matter what he says it won't change things but...

MasterP0 · 03/01/2014 18:03

Poff, general consensus on MN is to just walk away, after 7 months I couldn't just walk away, I'd feel the need to serve him his balls on a bed of hot coals, WANKER!!!!! Only THEN can I walk away, he can go tell his friends what a crazy bitch I was, I couldn't care less!

Siquando did you want to reconcile??? I've NAILED THAT DOOR SHUT with the silent dumper, I NEVER EVER WANT TO HEAR from him (but knowing my luck I WILL get a random text one day, they always do)!

Lies tell us more! Who was the image of?

LiesDamnLiesandSoggybiscuits · 03/01/2014 18:07

A fashion model called Andrew Cooper.

Just the one image...very posed, immediately didn't feel right.

LiesDamnLiesandSoggybiscuits · 03/01/2014 18:08

Just googled him....he's a diet coke guy....
That is so brave...or I'm one lucky girl Wink

FloraSpreadableMacDonald · 03/01/2014 18:08

Science...have a fab night :0)
Sequando....youre one cute guy...told u youd be popular lol.
Lies....has he used a model's photo?

My ex used to calk me names. Hes clinically depressed and i still feel responsible for him as the father of my children. Hes apologised and tried to change...but i worry it would go backwards. Im so much more confident now.

Im having a break from OD tonight...going to watch a movie and have a cider.

Cross post

Poffedoff · 03/01/2014 18:10

Master I hear ya...I've tons of questions for him but at the end of the day why the fuck should I bother? He most likely won't reply and I'll be left feeling even more shit than I already do!
Were you the victim of a silent dumping? How long had you been seeing him?

If he's blocked me on wattsapp already would I be able to tell or is it only if I go to send him a message? Wanna get in there first!

FloraSpreadableMacDonald · 03/01/2014 18:12

If someone blocks u on whatsapp ...when u send a message only one tick appears. Never moves to 2 ticks.

siquando · 03/01/2014 18:12

@master...maybe in the future.

@flo...thank you again, it's a nice confidence boost. Regarding your ex, I was in his position, that's why my ex left me...never called her names though, I was just a vacant partner.

powpow80 · 03/01/2014 18:13

It's hard poffed. If you know that no reply will make you feel worse I would leave it off. No need to make yourself feel worse.

Lies I would message him and ask how the modelling work is going this days and should you expect to see him in anymore ads soon.

FloraSpreadableMacDonald · 03/01/2014 18:15

Siquando...my ex left me...a note when i was on holiday for a few days with the kids. He was also doing some girl from the gym half his age. It lasted 3 weeks! So i find it hard to get past that bit even though hes sorry.

FloraSpreadableMacDonald · 03/01/2014 18:16

Pow...fab idea...do it Lies, do it!

Poffedoff · 03/01/2014 18:19

Haha lies I was just gonna suggest something similar to powpow, tell him you've just seen him in a diet coke ad, see what he says the plonker

siquando · 03/01/2014 18:19

@flo sorry to hear that....my ex started a relationship straight away, introduced him to the kids straight away and was kicked out of my own home.....for the last 5 months I've been rebuilding my body and mind and getting back to old me. Maybe in time we can sort stuff out but for now, going to enjoy myself and see what online dating brings.

LiesDamnLiesandSoggybiscuits · 03/01/2014 18:20

Right I'm doing it.....

Poffedoff · 03/01/2014 18:22

Flo and siquando :-(

Makes my guy look positively charming in comparison! Don't go back, either of you...

FloraSpreadableMacDonald · 03/01/2014 18:23

Siquando....we must have separated at similar times. Sorry to hear your story. She will regret it one day. Hugs.
