Wow, what have I missed? Bloody pain not being online.....

Dior, I think you are handling things incredibly well. I know you wont let things drift back to how they were, you are too determined.

Good luck, and i hope DH realises what he has nearly lost and does some proper soul searching!

If you remember my cold bath analogy - looks like you finally found the warm tap! Best of luck.

How's it going Dior?

Raffaella · 08/11/2007 21:36

Sorry if I offended you by saying you didn't sound happy. Really wishing you all the best. Let us know how things are going.

make sure he works hard to keep it good too

Baffy · 09/11/2007 10:07

Glad you're still sounding so positive I really think this is the start of many good things to come for you

And at your day in bed!!

Hi Dior, enjoy your cross stitch. Wish I could stay home today, but was offered overtime - would rather be in bed knitting. How are you feeling though? DD's at home with no voice and a sick feeling in her tummy. She was sick and dizzy yesterday and swore it wasn't the effects of the 16th birthday party she'd attended the day before .

Hope your H makes a fuss of you tonight - to show he means what he says!

Get well soon, Dior, your mum's probably right. I came out with a rash and a fluey cold just before dp went away, and I'm sure it was due to the ups and downs we were having. Hope H spoils you rotten tonight.

Was it a good film?

Just off home now to see how sickly dd's getting on. When last spoken to, she was watching Desperate Housewives on digital.

JARM · 09/11/2007 17:23

You look after yourself sweetheart, and make sure H does his fair share with dinner/DS etc.

There is deffo something going around though - the girls are full of cold and coughs and i feel like death too - lets hope labour doesnt start just yet, i havent got the energy!

Because things are better and you are happier and he can sense it - and therefore less likely to be available to him should he decide he might want you at some point. He's a user and a taker, and thought you were there for the using and the taking whenever he felt inclined? Men like this have an infallible radar for their 'safety net' women moving on - look at MOH's bloke.

Sorry if that sounds harsh Dior, but don't let him fuck up things for you when you're on the up. He's not worth a moment's consideration.

Glad you're feeling on the mend and that things with H are still positive. Focus on that.

MascaraOHara · 12/11/2007 09:47

Ignore G. He can sense you are happier.. don't let him throw a spanner in the works. focus on H

MascaraOHara · 12/11/2007 09:48

Can you nip out at lunchtime and buy yourself some sexy undies or something?? to take home for dh?

turquoise · 12/11/2007 09:53

MOH - sorry if that sounded awful about your man too. I use the phrase 'safety net woman' because that's what I was to a man just like this. How was your weekend?

Tanee58 · 12/11/2007 10:50

Why should what G says matter Dior? Ignore him. Actually, you might even find him paying you MORE attention now - because you're probably giving off positive signals, now that you're happier. The pheromones are probably attracting him !

As the others say, just concentrate on yourself and H now. And have a good week ! Are you feeling better?

MascaraOHara · 12/11/2007 11:00

lol, no offence taken you're right.

I'm fine thanks. Feeling quite perky as DP phoned last night after 4 days when we couldn't speak due to a lack of internet caffs and hotel phones - and the first thing he said was 'Oh, I love you, I love you so much, I'm really missing you and I really want to talk to you! . DD's still off school though the worst is over - her whole group of friends went down with the same bug last Friday - the school probably thinks they bunked off together!

Yep, I definitely think G's got wind of your positive pheromones !

yes agree with what everyone has said, he can sense the change and now he wants to play again

tell him to jog on, and feel good that he wants what he cant have, and you dont need him
