The Child Catcher re WWK. Iwas Grim Reaper...............

I'm saying nothing.........

iwashappy · 11/03/2015 23:54

"I'm saying nothing" - makes a change! too busy swooning over WWK's and my ex's

Izzie595 · 11/03/2015 23:59

iwas I MAY look like death when I first get up in the morning......and that's where the similarities end. Thank you!!!

Thanks re builder and Bucket. It will be nice to get some progress re builder. But would rather Bucket wasn't coming over

I am honorary Welsh but I dropped the name change because I thought people wouldn't recognise me anymore particularly the Welsh lot

Izzie595 · 12/03/2015 00:02

"I'm saying nothing" - makes a change! too busy swooning over WWK's and my ex's

I'm more likely to find the Welsh sheep attractive resists the obvious sheep shagging Welsh jokes

iwashappy · 12/03/2015 00:11

Izzie I am sure Sid will be disappointed as he probably hasn't had a new notch on his bedpost this year yet

You could try getting the Bucket to agree to what you would like done by hinting that you won't tell the Builder you are separated.

I quite liked your Welsh name. I think people would still recognise you as there's only one Izzie, actually worryingly it might be 595 of you!

iwashappy · 12/03/2015 00:14

That would probably be a better choice Izzie x would like to make sheep shagging joke too but don't want to appear Welshist

Izzie595 · 12/03/2015 00:19

Getting done what I wanted......well I was wondering IF he offered to fit he remaining kitchen things haha whether I would say, no thanks, I can manage.......more likely I would just ungraciously say well if you really want to.......but I will get him to fit that phone screen protector.

Izzie595 · 12/03/2015 00:23

I don't know why I put 595 really. It just popped into my head. I probably tried the usual numbers and thought sod it, nobody would have 595.....I'm clever like that!

If there were 595 of us it would be like a flock of sheep shall we get our coats? Not woolly ones though

Izzie595 · 12/03/2015 00:28

Oh bum, just seen the time! Off to bed once I've taken off makeup. Catch up tomorrow xx

whyMe2014 · 12/03/2015 00:50

Now I keep think of his little head on a stick! Is that wrong?

Hobbit...him moving in...it feels very final like we have no option but to move on. You must feel very hurt. I feel hurt even if my daughter mentions the ow's name.

Iwas...omg...'he eats seeds in a commune'....I'm pictureing him now along side my short, gun totting weasel.

WWK....being scared is ok...you will feel all these emotions because you are the better person...he is devoid of feeling.
It's horrible when the 'missing him' thing crops up when you least expect it. I try to use mindfulness and come back to the moment....so if I find my mind drifting back to him I focus on what I'm doing i.e. brushing my teeth and the taste, the feel etc. Yep I know I sound nuts but it does work (not 100% but enough). The lack of control is so scary...it's just like having the stabilisers taken off and I'm hurtling down a hill blindfolded.
Your right their fuckwittery takes over our minds and the ability to think has been temporarily removed. Mumsnet is probably the only thing I read at the moment. But we will get our lives back and start to enjoy things (including books) again.

Green....again you have come so far you need to congratulate yourself not berate yourself. From what you have said you have been a victim of EA. His behaviour is unacceptable and you will find the strength to deal with whatever he throws at you. Keep the Freedom programme in your head and you will notice his behaviour from the types described. Although I don't think manipulating twat is in there...I've looked.
I really thought I would crumble in court...I dreaded going and even with the diazepam I could have run the other way. I too thought I would be carried out. But I did face it and you will too.
The weasel has also told me that I will lose the house, I cannot afford a mortgage, I'm now on extensive sick leave and on benefits...the humiliation is awful I can understand how you feel. We have all got in these situations through no fault of our own and we are still being messed with. Perhaps they should all have their heads on sticks!

bobs.....twunts gallery...excellent idea. Can I nominate The Weasel for a place. His head hung in a gallery would give me great pleasure.
Hmmm...how about a Twunts calendar as well (obviosuly not naked)? Obviously 'The Weasel' would be August because that's when he ran away from his responsibilities.

Big hugs to everybody at Hobbits Bar. xx

WellWhoKnew · 12/03/2015 01:19

Iwas, it is not, nor was it not, my intention to make you seem insensitive. It's just all of our situations are so radically different, we are all turning up here to say 'SHIT THIS IS HARD'.

You are here because, for you, it is hard too. You don't deserve anything less than empathy either. You have my empathy. I hope I can help if I can at all.

And, truly it is hard. I know 'who' I am. I have met Hobbit, who 'just' happens to be a neighbour. I have met, or spoke to, a lot of MNetters, all of whom are trying to cope with their circumstances.

I am also the woman who got into a death trap of a car and had 'a holiday', and stayed over in stranger's homes. Some of them live in mansions. Some of them claim benefits.

None of them deserve shit!

None of them deserve the hell that is a protracted legal process.

I hope they think the same for me.

But in the interim, they've made sure I KOKO.

So, no, your hurt is perfectly understandable. It's horrendous learning that the man you married is nothing like you thought he was.

It's horrific to discover: you are a naive fool.

As Hobbit says, he can scare the children...

I didn't have a clue.

But he made sure I stopped working for human rights.

Well, perhaps I need to get going again...

Oh, and because I killed shiny new lap top, I'm on old lap top, which he has 'ghostwriter' on...

MN is just a bunch of whiny, nasty women...You're all just women.

Who deserve this shit in his opinion...

In five day, I am unleashed...

But I'm just a dumb blond who doesn't have a 'scooby doo'. Go me, at the appropriate speed.

Hobbitwife001 · 12/03/2015 08:26

Not long now, WWKmy lovely, KOKOING for the win!

I have this great image in my head, you know those collections of stuffed and mounted animal heads on wooden plaques (absolutely hate anything like that by the way,) I am imagining our twunts heads stuffed and mounted in the same way, 'poor me' expressions on their stupid faces, that's the stuff of nightmares right there hey!

Hilarious though, that's a great idea, BobsyGrin

iwashappy · 12/03/2015 08:37

Will catch up properly later but WWK I know you had no intention to make me feel insensitive, I didn't take it that way. I feel myself that I should have recognised the difference.

You are a big help to a lot of us on here with your wise words. Thank you. I have to go now but KOKO to you all.

morning all hobbit you made me really laugh - think i better get some of them beta blockers to add to the collection.

izzie & iwas - good banter - i could never work out whether the welsh convo was real or just gobbledegook! Confused

i now have this image in my head - is this close? Grin

why - me too im into this mindfulness stuff- get the theory but not always so easy to put into practise.

well when you start recruiting bare me in mind - ill happily join your army!

hope everyone has a good day today x

funny how i get this feeling I am still being monitored!

bobs123 · 12/03/2015 09:35

Well I found some of my threads from 2004 (something to do with disappointing sex life haha). I stated even then that I felt like I had been going through a slow divorce for years! I think at that point I had his measure and had distanced myself in self preservation. It was a pride thing and keeping the family unit together - and perhaps cowardice - that stopped me leaving then. Or perhaps I was just putting off the inevitable in that i knew i would have to got through all this at some point

As for missing him now ..........how can you miss someone who never did anything for you or the DC and just screwed with your head - and is still trying to!

DD1 is really struggling on her new meds and the side effects - being sick, anxiety, horrendous nightmares that make her sleep with the light on, agoraphiboia etc. Not good in her final year at uni and apparently it will take about a month for them to kick in. He has done this to her and yet after absolutely no contact wants to know why he can't go to her graduation? Angry

WWK and Hobbit how lucky you are to be neighbours!

Izzie 595 sounds like you put a bit more thought into it than 123!

green good pic!

whyme yes it's what they do - tell you you will lose the house etc - don't believe a word!

bobs123 · 12/03/2015 09:36

green you might well be - just as all the Twunts might be reading Sad

Hobbitwife001 · 12/03/2015 15:34

Not exactly neighbours Bobsy , fifty miles between us, but nothing in the grand scheme of things. Grin

bobs123 · 12/03/2015 16:12

Hmmmm meant to post the actual pics - see trying to learn new skills Grin

Yes Hobbit I'd travel that to see someone especially WWK at this stage!

I am feeling shit right now - just been for my pre op - how bloody ironic is this - had to do a pregnancy test - if only she knew - poor girl couldn't stop apologizing. Whilst I was lying there being covered in pen marks & stickers I thought i've had every part of my body prodded & poked. Treatment starts 2 days into school hols- i am more upset about not being able to sit in the sun - this was the only thing that kept me going last year when we had all that good weather. I have to do another Form E for the court process and no idea on what basis I have to fill this in on and then I thought TWUNT is still angling for house to be sold to cover 2 more years of school fees -leaving me f88king homeless. He is wanting to change contact arrangements for the 2nd time in two weeks for "travelling" but wont confirm if work related - just says a simple yes or no will do - its also quite simple to provide your bank statement - i have just told him to F off!
bobs - its too obvious to be a coincidence. I have been thinking about my name again - right at the start i said i would revert to my maiden name- but then changed due to the kids - im back thinking I want to change it again because I want nothing associated with the F88king Twunt!

on the plus side I can say I had 3 tattoos done for my 50th!

OP posts:
bobs123 · 12/03/2015 17:01

OMG go you green care to share what the tattoos are of and where they are Grin

Pregnancy tests in our 50s? some sort of weird compliment surely?

I think it's standard procedure to have to fill out another form E prior to court

DD1 has already changed her name to my maiden name - told me after she'd applied. I will certainly change mine at some point. As for DD2 it's her choice. It will be good not to have to continually have to spell it out any more!

greenberet · 12/03/2015 17:17

bobs - sadly not as exciting as it sounds - 3 ink marks around my boob! and apparently somebody lied before treatment so covering their backs I guess - yes i get that re Form E - didnt understand quite why I had to do it before & was a bit miffed about paying for it but then I realised my SHL has a legal document that shows the state of play pretty early on

bobs123 · 12/03/2015 17:40

Whoops sorry green Blush

I actually had that not too long ago - went in with one lump and had several circles drawn on both boobs! Felt like I was in for plastic surgery and they were marking all the bits that needed correcting!
