Here goes - thread 4 and definitely the last one now, sheesh!!

Who knew instigating divorce could be so bloody long winded!!

My last thread was 'It isn't Work Stress, it's emotional abuse and you're going to get divorced because of it H!'

Rottweiler solicitor (Rottie) and a non molestation order on Tuesday yippee!!

My hands are up, name and name's dd1 are amazing

ShinyShinySpoons · 24/10/2014 19:45

Well done! I hope you are having a lovely relaxed evening with your DDs and DPs. Raising a glass of red x

Anniegetyourgun · 24/10/2014 19:53

But where was her DH last night ?

The important point here is: who cares? Grin

Zazzles007 · 24/10/2014 19:53

Oh Name, my heart was in my throat as I read your last post, even though I knew the outcome. So relieved to hear it when well and Twatty wasn't around to complicate things. You have done so, so, so well, playing the game for survival and getting all of you out of there safely. So glad that your parents have stepped up to the mark in your time of need, to accommodate you, the DC and the 2 hamsters Grin. I too believe that children are far more switched on than we give them credit for - good on your DD1 for seeing the reality of the situation that her adult father could not.

Time for a little Wine, perhaps some Cake, and lots of Brew to contemplate the future. If you feel the need for continued support, of course, keep your threads going. I don't think Twatty is going to take this lying down. But for now, some rest, some recouperation, lots of sleep and cuddling your dear, dear daughters. You have a future that is now all yours, to direct as you see fit, you get to make the decisions, you are the architect of your destiny. It is all yours for the taking Grin.

Congratulations, name !

I'm so happy to read this and I hope you all have a lovely half term break.

The worst is over - but there will still be some difficult times ahead. No way is he going to make things easy for you. But you have rottie and all of us behind you, and you've proved how strong you are by surviving the nightmare of the last few weeks. Now that you're out from all that stress, I wouldn't be surprised if you came down with something, physical illness or an emotional slump. Expecting it might help you get through it.

Lizardc · 24/10/2014 19:59

Fantastic amazing news. I also cried a few happy tears when I read your update.

I hope your and your girls have a wonderful half term together.

just woken up in Australia and straight on phone to check mumsnet app I went to bed last night wondering how it was all going

I wrote in your last thread your girls would know everything that was going in even if you thought not speaking from my childhood experiences - so it's chilling your daughter's response - what a wonderful role model you are to be so strong and get you three out for a new life of happy and calm.

I'm sooooooo happy for you! pom poms are raised and here's to the next bit of this journey even tho it's going to be bumpy xxxxx

Honestly everyone, I want to keep my threads running for now but my parents bloody internet is doing my head in!

I'll keep it short for now because everytime i type a long post, it looses it. Should be back to normal on Monday. Firstly as always, I love you all, thank you Thanks secondly, had a nice evening with the folks - H rang my Dad though which my Dad ignored.

My PO has emailed me to check I'm ok. I've told her I am not looking at my phone and my old email at the moment.

Glad to hear you're ok name. Well done on your Dad ignoring the call, seems like he has finally got the message. I would love to know what is going through your husbands head right now, bet it was such a shock to "Mr Perfect" who is definitely not abusive according to him!!
