Home alone at Dp's place he's still at work. Making tea and just seen under all the clean tea towels a photo frame face down In the draw. Now clearly its an ex ...my question is would you have a mischievous sneaky peek or just let it lie? Could you resist?? Grin

So did you look?

SlightlyJaded · 27/04/2015 19:25

So is there any way you can manouver your phone into the drawer, edge it under the photo, take a picture and upload it here without actually looking?

Then we can tell you if it's safe to 'turn over'?

I can't because its all open plan he would see me Grin

Say to him, "Why have you got that picture of me face down in your kitchen drawer?"

That forces him to either apologise, buy you a takeaway and a bottle of wine Grin or prove you were wrong!

SlightlyJaded · 27/04/2015 19:41

OK Plan B.

You: would you like a drink?
Him: oh yes please, lovely
You: how was your day (whilst you randomly rummage for tea spoon etc)
Him: Yeah ok, how was yours.
You: (muttering) where's the oogimaflip? hmm where is that thingmebob?

Then absent mindedly open The Drawer. And now it's very important that you adopt a breezy tone for this bit

You: turning picture over Oh look, what's this?

Spill something and get a teatowel out, and 'accidentally' grab the picture frame...

Oh blinking heck I really want to look at it now with you lot egging me on!! Grin but honestly if it's a cute picture of him and one of his exes I will be proper green eyed and it will be your fault Grin never seen any of his exes so assume I am surely the best looking woman he's ever been near Wink

I would have looked.

ThatBloodyWoman · 27/04/2015 20:11

You can't start this and not look now,op.
Its just not fair on the rest of us Angry

HollyJollyDillydolly · 27/04/2015 20:14

I'd have had to peek. Tea towel drawer is a bit of a random place to hide a photo though.

Charley50 · 27/04/2015 20:18

I think it's just an empty photo frame.

Place Mark - I need to know now! I bet it's his mum and he doesn't want you to know he's a mummy's boy Smile

Kaekae · 27/04/2015 20:40

Of course I would look! I would have probably looked at her Facebook page by now anyway. Grin

QueenBean · 27/04/2015 20:40

I reckon it's a photo of him with a child and when you turn it over you'll find out it's his secret love child

he only has one photo up in his place and that's one of him with his learners (he teachers special needs) so it is very intriguing!!

OP posts:
Charley50 · 27/04/2015 20:50

Or it might be a school photo of.... You! And he's been obsessed with you since you were both 11. He's got a whole secret dossier on you hidden in the shed, under some potting trays and tomato feed.
