DP cross there's no food - part 2

[droopyears]

I didn't realise I'd have to start a new thread - it's amazing the amount of people that have offered advice / made me laugh, it's appreciated

It was the strangest thing! Yes Yeo Valley yoghurts and milk

I've not been able to change the locks but I've double locked the door this afternoon, as he doesn't have a key for the bottom lock

I do however, have his bike at mine (which won't fit in my car, only his)

unless is in your way dont worry about the bike-tell him you'll it outside andhe has to collect it-its really not your problem

It's in my conservatory still - it's pretty much brand new so I don't really feel comfortable leaving it outside (I know, he doesn't deserve me being nice!). Nothing's ever gone missing from mine before but it would be just my luck if it did this time

I did get a text from him this morning to ask if I was ok, I just responded with a reminder about his bike. That was then ignored

Our elderly cat died last week (what a week ) I've promised the DC's we can go to the animal shelter and look for another one, so that'll hopefully keep us all occupied for the time being

He wants the bile to stay at yours, otherwise there’s nothing connecting him to tour place
He wants to keep the connection/ for you to have a reminder of him. Tell him you’re putting it up for sale on FB as abandoned if he doesn’t shift it ASAP.

Tonight message him.

The bike is in my way so it's going in the back garden Wednesday morning.

yes I agree... make him take the responsibility 🌺

So sorry about your cat Droop. It never rains but it pours, does it?

He definitely seems to be trying to minimise now. If nothing else could you padlock the bike to something outside so you’re not constantly bashing yourself on it?

I agree with PPs about giving him 48hrs notice then it's going outside, covered with a bin bag if you're feeling nice. At the moment, that bike is an excuse for him to contact you again. Not to mention another example of his scrounging ways - if his mum won't let him leave it at her place then he can pay for bloody storage!

Well done on getting all his other crap out. This must have been such a massive shock - from thinking he was just being a big of a moody tit, to realising how much he's been mugging you off and how nasty he was under the mask.

Hope you and your dc soon have a lovely new fluffy companion to bring you happiness in your wanker-free home!

So sorry about your cat op

At some point you'll need to insist he collects the bike. You don't need it under your feet. Hopefully his passive behaviour means he does get its over and won't be hassling you

Considering he was spending most evenings at yours how come now he doesn’t have the time to come over to pick his shit up?

I would text him one last time. He has 24 hours to pick up the bike or you are getting rid if it. He will use this as an excuse to contact or harass you when he feels like it. Change the locks and block him. I'm so proud of you!

Why not tell him you're bored of his shit and will be leaving it up against the lamp post at 1800 tomorrow? (Or whatever time he is usually able to arrive at yours.)

Yes, funny, that

Condolences on the loss of your pet, OP

He’s just going to pretend he doesn’t know you’ve broken up or why. Tedious man. That said just text and say he can pick up his bike Wednesday at six. Cook a large and delicious meal and invite a friend (or 3)!to share it with you. When he rings the bell wheel out the bike, and go back to your meal.

I love that idea, itisbetter .

He thinks he's punishing her so she'll apologise and beg him to come back.

I hope OP is stronger than to allow this free loader filth take over her home and income again 🌺

I would normally recommend bike be ransomed for Yeo Tokens but as a PP has said, he's going to leave it at yours to prolong some sort of connection as long as possible.

Sending virtual and hugs re deceased cat.

I suggest you offer up said "Almost new" bike to the Cat Rescue Organisation's next fund raiser. Also recommend you have a look at The Litter Tray for good advice re adopting new cat; be warned - everyone advises getting two to keep each other company!

@MrsCatE Thank you! We actually already have another extremely friendly, laid back cat so this would be company for all of us

I’m sorry about your cat

The 'are you ok' text is a classic 'uh oh, things aren't going the way I expected' go at reeling you back in. Keep going OP.

New cat sounds promising!

So sorry about your cat, I would be devastated

Sorry about your cat OP

I agree with PP, the bike is not your problem!

Nearly brand new bike. New games and console.
I see all that money he's been able to save with his cocklodging ways, he's put to good use.

He's been told to come get it and he knows it's there. I'd tell him one more time to get it or you're selling it.

Are you okay? Errrr duck off.

Glad you're doing well.

“Are you ok?”
Is a pathetic attempt to hedge his bets. He can jump either way depending on your response. I’d put money in it progressing to “because you’re behaving like a mad woman what is wrong with you?”

Hope the bike goes soon.
