Fucking tossed. He's been buttering me up all day. God he fucks with my head!!

gingergenius · 12/03/2018 21:36

I'm choosing 'rolling in the deep' for the next tune up!

Belonger · 12/03/2018 21:37

Well I'm on the door tonight and I'll tell him to feck off and get his trousers elsewhere. I'm the mood for being a kick ass door woman today.

Can I just say I think you are amazing Oldbrook Star

gingergenius · 12/03/2018 21:50

Well done @Oldbrook x

Basseting · 12/03/2018 22:12

Well Done OldBrook

Passes crisps, wine, pretzels.
(I wish, was hoping to watch TV but ds high as a kite so sending back to bed again...) Rock and Roll here too. Still DOM will have been in his grotty bed on his lonesome for over an hour so not missing much ;)

Teensandfuture · 12/03/2018 22:12

gingergenius · 12/03/2018 22:27

teens I never knew that was Ricky Martin - been Zumba- ing all this time to it too ....!

All this talk of music earlier made me sneak on 2 tracks when I was tidying the kitchen that are NC's music and you know what ..it didn't even feel too bad although to be fair I had already bawled my eyes out to Set Fire to the Rain ( but think that affects me as reminds me of a very tough marriage time ) and yes it has come on board now for NC.

I have to be doing something right here surely .

sohelpmegoad · 12/03/2018 23:34

Can I join you ladies, husband has left for the third time, and this time, I’m going NC so that I’m not tempted when he decides I’m his greener grass again, but I’m v wobbly , a determined wobbler, such a nice image

Bloodyuselessatthinkingofaname · 12/03/2018 23:39

Hi sohelpme you'll get lots of support here . They got me to Day 31 - tomorrow is Day 32 for me !

MyRelationshipIsWeird · 12/03/2018 23:44

Hello lovelies Thanks for the new thread seshi or sushi as my phone insists on trying to call you Grin

Hello Sohelpmegoad. So sorry you’re going through this too. Keep posting - these threads fill up so quickly with all the support this lovely bunch can give.

Teens, normal is the goal! Great stuff.

Oldbrook that’s brilliant - 100% the right choice, enjoy basking in the sunshine and your own strength! You can always catch up with the others another time, hope he was left wondering.

Ginger sorry he’s being a head-fuck. You know how this goes..!

Bloody you’re doing great - if even your old songs aren’t summoning tears.

Everyone else - I hear you! Big breath out .....and calm.

Morning ladies! Cafe is open again! @oldbrook how are you feeling after yesterday? @sohelp welcome to the cafe and sorry to hear that you have had a hard time. Do you want to tell us a bit more about your story? @Bloody can't believe it's 32 days for you..That's amazing. How is everyone else today? I am thinking of reaching out later.... But very nervous

oldbrook well done on everything and don't even think about what it does / doesn't/could/might/may/may not mean . There is no telling so just move on with your great new job !

I'm saying this but have woken thinking about NC and feeling hugely stressed and nauseous today and I feel like this is a bit of a setback . I can only guess it is because I was reading some messages again last night and played "the music" . On the surface it was Ok but underneath maybe not so ...so lesson learnt! I have just caved from what was going to be Day 1 of no WhatsApp and looked at Whatsapp too. Sigh....

In other news I have a first "meet/date" on Friday - fear he is going to be Mr Boring though.

Bloodyuselessatthinkingofaname · 13/03/2018 07:22

Morning seshi missed your post while typing - just do it - send the message and get it over with . Why are you nervous ? In case he doesn't reply ?

Belonger · 13/03/2018 07:22

Morning seshi, lovely to be back in the cafe. We'll done yesterday oldbrook, a big day indeed.

I'm feeling positive this morning, still pretty kick ass and determined. I keep remembering that quote about feeling hard to love. My NC def makes me feel hard to love and I'm sick of it.

Belonger · 13/03/2018 07:24

This one is def being framed and on the wall on the cafe

@belonger lovely quote as always... Officially putting you in charge of artwork for the cafe! @Bloody sorry to hear that you are feeling anxious again... It probably is because you were looking at messages and listening to your 'songs'
.... That does it for me evey time. Why don't you go out and buy something fab for your date? Take your mind of it? He may not be boring?

You are right.... I am just going to send the message.... Over thinking things just heightens the importance of the response doesn't it? Fuck it!

I have just had a message from my date from sat asking to see me again but I have declined...

@belonger let's get Nikita Gill to officially open the cafe Star

Morning all
Day 19 NC.
I’m supposed to be working on myself during NC, but I feel miserable. I’m not looking at his pictures etc but I am reading ‘how to get your ex back’ sites. Have even bought a book! I’d only admit that here!
I’m finding NC easy, as I’ve not done 30 days yet, but I know I’m pinning too much hope on that when I contact him, things might be different.

Hello to you all oldbrook well done on job move - fresh start.
seshi You seem to have good dialogue with your NC (helping him with his phone), can you use concert as a turning point - find out where you are one way or the other?
Good for having a date bloody
belonger and everyone else have good days

Bloodyuselessatthinkingofaname · 13/03/2018 07:46

Look what I saw and what it has on it Wink

ravens well done on Day 19 - TBH I don't think it matters what "tactics" we use to get through it ...my prop has been my WhatsApp checking and yours is your book . You will feel differently the longer you go . Sometimes we just have to reign our minds in as it is the brain which is our betrayer .
