So has he stopped denying it now ? Has he admitted "something" - but not what?

How long do you think it has been going on ? Any chance he can cock-lodge with the 3 generations???? Be the DD will have something to say about that!

Enjoy his squirming and pain

Will he leave the house at all? If not, have you a spare room or a sofa?

LovelyFriend · 28/09/2015 20:33

Popping back in to say Iseeall you are awesome!
You are gaining control and doing all the things I'd like to think I would in similar circumstances (but I probably wouldn't be cool headed enough).

tiny violin in the band Grin

Iseeall · 28/09/2015 20:34

I suspect he thinks it is the wife of another band member who told me(just a guess) and he doesn't know who, and therefore who may disapprove.
The business is niche and any scandal would easily be gossiped about within the small industry . He likes to put on the 'gentleman' act . So any scandal would horrify him, work wise iyswim.

cherry you don't know how close you are

cozietoesie · 28/09/2015 20:36

Then I would guess that he's just completely staggered at being found out by .......'the frump' was it? He's clearly been playing you for so many years that he just can't grasp that you have a mind and an awareness separate from his own wonderful, clever self.

He's become used to - as my Granny would have put it - 'having his cake and eating it' and now his whole world has come tumbling about his ears.

It's almost tragic. Grin

Well, the adrenalin and righteous indignation are carrying you through for now and that's all that matters at the mo, eh. Day at a time. You're doing remarkably well, all icey disdain - perfect. What a slug he is - honestly, what a shock Flowers

Plenty on here to support you through any inevitable dips Flowers . but as pp's are saying, do get some rl buttresses in place too?

Keep going lovely xx

clam · 28/09/2015 20:44

Oh God, it's not a tribute band is it?

Iseeall · 28/09/2015 20:48

clam tribute/cover band call it what you will. I don't know if there's a difference.
Saving grace is, he doesn't dress up.

cozietoesie · 28/09/2015 20:59

Except mentally, Isee - except mentally.

clam · 28/09/2015 21:01

Oh dear, so he's maintaining he didn't get no satisfaction on his trip then?

eddielizzard · 28/09/2015 21:01

what a fucking arse he is. no helpful advice, but i'm cheering you on and lots of supportive hugs & ears.

Puzzledandpissedoff · 28/09/2015 21:02

Saving grace is, he doesn't dress up

What - no Bay City Rollers checked flares? No Noddy Holder top hat? No Alice Cooper fake python?

The man's even more of a bastard than I thought ... Grin

Iseeall · 28/09/2015 21:05

Apparently no satisfaction. Smile

FantasticButtocks · 28/09/2015 21:06

He's just so very concerned isn't he...about himself. there may be lots more to 'know' and he is agonising about 'who' knows 'what'. Next time he begs asks, just say I will not be revealing my sources as I've said, but suffice to say that ultimately the reason I 'know' is because YOU have been incredibly indiscreet. And you are in BIG trouble. And then refuse to say anymore.

*She's his groupie."
What a silly man.

AlisonWunderland · 28/09/2015 21:18

Oh dear it's a Stones tribute band isn't it?
The Strolling Bones.

And he Fancies himself as Mick Jagger.
When he's really more of a Bill Wyman (the one everyone forgets about)
