I received a Facebook message early this morning 5am time, only just seen it when checking my emails though. From a girl, I don't know saying she was with my boyfriend last night after I left and went back to his place. No more details than that and just a sorry, didn't realise he had a girlfriend and baby.

My boyfriend was out for his birthday yesterday, I met up with him around 8pm and came home around 11.30. Him and his friends were going to a club. My friend came back with me and was staying over and I knew dd would be asleep in my room. He was already drunk so I said he should stay at his place. Did get a drunken text around 3am from him, which was a bit unusual for him.

I showed my friend and she said to message her for more details, see if it checks out. I'm more inclined to just ask my boyfriend when he gets here later. My friend thinks that's very naive of me.

No issues of cheating ever and I've had no reason to doubt him before. He was out with his brother, friends and some of their girlfriends. His brother and one friend I think would tell me if he did anything anyway.

What would others do? I feel like asking her or anyone else, is like not trusting him really and I'd probably be annoyed if it was the other way and he didn't just ask me.
But then if I just ask him, as my friend says, he has a chance to lie and cover his tracks. I really don't think he would though.

Fair play.

Emboo19 · 19/03/2017 17:09

I have kept a screen shot of her messages just in case, I get any more trouble.
She works in a nursery with children Shock don't think my dd will be going to that one, when I go to uni!

Tell the nursery out of revenge!

SuperFlyHigh · 19/03/2017 17:13

Onion can't recall what I said but just said look into it which OP has said she did.

That's what I'd advise anyone in this situation to do, check out versions of events.

Miserylovescompany2 · 19/03/2017 17:14

Bloody hell, she's completely tapped in the head! Who actually pulls that shit?

All because you had a night out the other week, let your hair down and weren't overly responsive when she initially spoke with you. So, being the completely sane person that she obviously is NOT, she makes up a load of shite...as you do?

Admittedly, I did think she was telling the truth to start with. I'm so pleased I was wrong :)

blackcherries · 19/03/2017 17:26

Best to block and ignore. Annoyingly she might think she 'won' in a minor way because you asked her for details as if you had reason to believe her, but she did give enough detail to at least sound semi plausible...
I'd be reluctant to contact her nursery. If my dc went there I definitely would but otherwise I'd stay out of it due to potential to totally escalate. It's a mad thing she did but not particularly relevant to her ability to do her job.

AnnieAnoniMouse · 19/03/2017 17:44

💐 I'm glad it's over & ended ok. I hope your partner isn't too upset.

I'd post her messages on Facebook for all to see.

Esoteric · 19/03/2017 17:45

Well there are some real arsehole blokes out there matched by some women who seem to really need to be locked up for their own sanity, it's a shame we can't pair them all off!!!

PetalMettle · 19/03/2017 17:52

Glad it's been resolved OP. What a weirdo. I'd leave it for now unless she does anything else

dowhatnow · 19/03/2017 17:53

He is so lucky that there was so much "evidence" or this could have turned out very differently/

Anyway alls well that ends well and you know that you have a good man.

LadyFlumpalot · 19/03/2017 17:58

I'd be tempted to screenshot and post for all to see. But then, I'm probably not that sensible.

MooPointCowsOpinion · 19/03/2017 17:59

Definitely tell her work place and any and all your mutual friends. People shouldn't get away with things like this.

felinewonderful · 19/03/2017 17:59

Glad you have found out the truth and I'm sorry for doubting your dp. Hope you can put all this behind you and ignore her, she sounds awful Flowers

Emboo19 · 19/03/2017 18:11

I've already blocked her!
I'm just going to leave it, otherwise it just gets silly.

He's not upset Annie in fact he's taking a bit too much pleasure in teasing me about it.
He knows I hate to say I'm sorry. And I think my words of, 'you must have at least done something to upset her, how can you not remember her' may well haunt me for a while!!

Again, baby 5 months ago! Totally not my fault!!

this has to be the weirdest strangest thing I ever read.... why would she do such a vicious nasty appalling thing..... the mind absolutely boggles... she cannot be right in the head... should she be around children... I'm not so sure ...

Well done for keeping your faith lady x

littleme2017 · 19/03/2017 18:41

So glad it all turned out okay.

I guess some people just have way too much time on their hands to make up stuff like that.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 19/03/2017 18:57

You don't need to apologise to him or blame it on Baby Brain. You acted like any normal sane person would on receiving such a message. Did he expect you to just ignore it then and never mention it? Confused

Of course you would ask him and feel upset. You've done nothing wrong.

SandyY2K · 19/03/2017 19:01

What a nasty piece of work she is.
She's jealous of you. She's jealous of you, your relationship and of you having a baby. Just jealous of your life.

What she's done is very malicious and if you didn't have better things to do with your life, she could be in a lot of trouble.

She's very lucky you aren't the type of person to make her pay.

If she crossed my path or that of some others, she'd regret it.

She's so envious of you, it's very sad.

JonSnowsWhore · 19/03/2017 19:03

Sounds like she has a crush on him, & knowing he's in a band, id be watching out for her trying it on with him if he's ever playing at any places local to you or she sees him out & about!

Not that I'm saying he's going to go along with it, I thought he was innocent too btw. Just tell him not to give her or her friends any opportunity to try & make up more stuff that they can 'prove' seeing as there's no other witnesses

PollytheDolly · 19/03/2017 19:33

Ha, I got a reply...... I deserve it because I'm a stuck up bitch and a terrible mother for leaving my baby with anyone (my parents) to get drunk all night (home by 12) and I don't deserve him anyway and he will cheat on me because I look dead rough since having a baby.
I could think of some really horrible things to put in a reply, but I've just blocked her.

That and you being (undeliberately) dismissive of her the other night.

That's it in a nutshell!

buckeejit · 19/03/2017 19:45

Phew, so glad we didn't have to say LTB!

And at least you'll remember her next time you're out! 😂

Emboo19 · 19/03/2017 20:18

No he didn't expect me to igonore it ILostItIn he's teasing me because I said 'how could he not remember her' and it was me who hasn't remembered her, she spent 4 years at the same school as me and we had a run in back then. That's what I'm blaming baby brain on!!
But if I'd just asked him and his brother, together as soon as they got up, it would have all been resolved and I'd have saved myself a sleepless night. So for not trusting him just to ask him straight up, I am sorry!

I was tempted to Sandy especially after the comment I was looking rough. I spent ages getting ready Friday night!

OP posts:
LoveDeathPrizes · 19/03/2017 20:21

I think you were really trusting. Everyone would want to dig a bit on that one, you were so restrained!

colourmylife · 19/03/2017 20:37

Blocking her and showing no interest in her drama will annoy her even more. Get your bf to block her too and on Instagram.

Just know that she is extremely jealous of you and that is all the revenge you need.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 19/03/2017 20:46

Sorry didn't mean to offend you, Emboo Blush
I didn't want you to feel bad for doubting him. Most of us would feel the same after receiving a message like that. Don't feel guilty about your reaction is what I meant.
