Third (and final) thread - C nonsense

Unbelievable that this is the 3rd thread and still nothing has been resolved.
I wasn’t going to start this one but if anything good comes out of this shite it will be a Glasgow/Scotland MN meet up!

I know folk laugh at all the ‘DAILY MAIL MAY NOT USE THIS’ stuff, but here’s me giving the scummy DM permission to use this 👋

Oh Marie - that's awful! You have really been through it. You showed tremendous courage - I'm glad that ultimately it's worked out well for you

Glad it went ok op. It will get better but it’s rough at the beginning.
Wow Mariel - I’m so sorry you had to go through that, it’s the dehumanising factor of not being believed that is so difficult to navigate. Your experience, your truth, just trampled over.
I know when I went through that shit - although my experience was far far less traumatic, for a long time all I felt was angry about being made to feel ashamed about something that had never happened. Again I t’s the injustice.
Sending love and support to all who have been through this. It does get better.

Hi OP, been lurking and just wanted to say I've been in your position. Keep your head held high, you have the knowledge that you did nothing wrong.
In Part 2, someone said they thought C was a narcissist- I thought that from the start tbh! I'm in South East England- if i was in Glasgow I'd meet up with you!
💐
Ps, what's grey rock???

cstaff · 24/09/2019 22:18

@JaysusWept
You really are a strong brave fantastic woman. Keep it up and remember that you are worth a 100 of any of those evil women especially C without who, none of this shit would be happening. Stay strong my friend.

polkadotpixie · 24/09/2019 22:22

I don't know how you've been so restrained! I'd have long since been banging on C's door demanding to know what the fuck she thinks she's playing at!

SchadenfreudePersonified · 24/09/2019 22:29

what's grey rock???

You don't react to anything - just let comments, no matter how provoking, wash over you and just sit there like a grey rock in the garden. Not responding, not reacting, not moving.

longtompot · 24/09/2019 22:35

Just saw a trailer for bbc2s Motherland. I've been picturing C as the blonde woman in this who has the perfect life, but not really.

PicsInRed · 24/09/2019 22:39

One word longtompot.

Squadie.

toffeeghirlinatwirl · 24/09/2019 23:43

Just finished RT3FTs.
Nothing constructive to add other than I'm on team jaysus too. Love Glasgow, been meaning to visit soon, it's been a while. So count me in for a meet up even though I'm 200+ miles down the road.
Keep on keeping on, OP Thanks

Derbee · 25/09/2019 00:06

Well done OP. I think you’re right. Grey Rock is the way to go. Although if anyone asked me about it in the playground I couldn’t resist saying “ah yes, it’s all a bit strange. I can only think that C must’ve stopped taking her medication. I do hope that she gets the help that she so clearly needs”

justilou1 · 25/09/2019 00:49

I hate the idea of your lovely DD suffering and you scurrying off because of these bullies. Sometimes there is no other way though. Bitches. I hope you run into the boring twat husband and let him know his wife’s a lying bitch.

Dotcomma · 25/09/2019 01:01

Just been reading it all again now it's all died down although not resolved, some things unfortunately never get resolved and the accuser never apologises to the injured party - never have I received an apology or explanation for the countless times i've been in the OP's position. I've always been labelled a trouble causer probably because i've always stuck up for myself or had my say, people don't seem to like that.

I would imagine that C has been checking hubby's phone and seen messages to/from someone with the same christian name and assumed it's you. From there it's played on her mind, she's changed towards you, shared her thoughts with who the text message was meant for, realised she's sent it to you by mistake/you sent her the ? message and she's blown it. She can't say anything to her hubby cos then he'd know she'd been snooping, so that's why he's no idea what you're talking about. He realises C has seen the messages and deletes them. They have almighty row & she kicks him out. You don't get an explanation because C has wrongly accused you & can't deny what she said about you in the text message.

Or something like that.

Misspollyx · 25/09/2019 01:34

Bitches of the highest order!! Total snakes!

Had a near identical experience myself, when I outed her to everyone she decided to take an overdose! I was completely innocent & glad this got proved.. I truly feel for you as similar situation but no chance was I being taking for a mug & letting this vindictive cow make up false accusations about me then same as Cuntoline couldn’t produce the evidence. She was a controlling nut job!

Am the same age as you with a little girl the same age as yours, and am from Glesga ano 😆 We actually have very similar life’s & threw choice have only a few close friends so if your needing a new pal am here, fuck the lot of them!

Third (and final) thread - C nonsense
bakesalesally · 25/09/2019 06:34

I love that @wheresthehope

@JaysusWept I think you are amazing. Keep that head held high. They are just not worth it.

incognitomum · 25/09/2019 07:24

What a bunch of bitches. That's bullying behaviour. Karma will get them.

OhBigHairyBollocks · 25/09/2019 07:45

You got this OP!

AryaStarkWolf · 25/09/2019 07:49

@MarieIVanArkleStinks that's awful and I bet you're not alone by a long shot there when it comes to sexual harassment/rape victims, people seem to chomp at the bit to want to believe the woman is lying. Glad you're doing ok now though and if nothing else hopefully it made that shitbag think twice before he did it again

ArDali1 · 25/09/2019 08:52

Wow, I can't believe women behave that way. I've never experienced this behaviour in school! I have never come across a teenager who behaves that way.

OP you have been handling this so well. Keep your head held high. Keep smiling! If you look like you're not bothered by them it will kill them. Especially C.

There's a saying my husband once told me and it stuck with me since (it's translated from a different language so might not make sense)
"If you talk about me behind my back, I am the one in front" or something along those lines. Meaning that whoever gossips about you makes you so important to them that they have taken time out of their day to do that.

Esspee · 25/09/2019 08:55

Sending best wishes OP Flowers. Grey rock with head held high is the dignified way to go but have some truthful and clever answers ready in case anyone broaches the subject.

NigellaAwesome · 25/09/2019 09:05

@MarieIVanArkleStinks I'm in the midst of a similar situation to yours. It's shit, isn't it?

SchadenfreudePersonified · 25/09/2019 09:51

"If you talk about me behind my back, I am the one in front"

An excellent maxim ArDali

Whenever someone gets upset about another person, there is a lot of advice about "Don't give them headspace" etc - and it's good advice.

Jaysus - they are obsessed with you - with provoking you, forcing a reaction etc - but you can put them out of your head as you seem to be doing. They aren't important enough to get upset over.

DuckbilledSplatterPuff · 25/09/2019 09:52

You''ll get through this Jaysus, and come out the other side, with those mill stones off your neck. They will go through life as mean bitches with no self awareness, I don't know about karma but their poor choices and mean behaviour will have an impact on their lives somewhere down the line.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 25/09/2019 09:53

I'm in the midst of a similar situation to yours. It's shit, isn't it?

I'm sorry to hear this Nigella
There's still very much a "boys will be boys"/ "he's only having a laugh/being friendly. joking"/ "it's 'cos she fancies him really but he won't pay attention to her" culture.

It's sickening - hope you get things sorted out.
