Ok, so this is thread number three. I can hardly believe it, in fact I don't want to believe it. I don't want to be in this place, so bloody broken and - at times - on my knees with despair. This is the link to my previous rantings:

She wanted hope. He is not coming back. She received compassion. May be she feels not needed to write here anymore

Getting back together with him would be a big mistake. He's disrespectful and just nasty and would destroy her self esteem further.

@Pleasenotme how are you doing now?

Think of you often. I hope your life is better now.

Buddhalover · 18/01/2025 15:26

I’m the same . Hoping she’s doing okay

Secondstart1001 · 19/01/2025 15:32

Her pain was so raw and brutal that it sticks in my head so much. I do worry about her x

Foreigners88 · 19/01/2025 19:48

what happens to all these ladies....I hope they find at least new lease of life

Her pain was so raw and brutal that it sticks in my head so much. I do worry about her x

Pleasenotme also writes eloquently and with insight- so much so that she had the usual dunderheads accusing her of “creative writing ✍️ “
Pleasenotme replied she wished it was mere fiction- ( this was in her first thread).

I too check back hoping she is ok.
Divorce and infidelity is painful on so many levels- especially when there are children, and also a beautiful home.
Please’s family home was very special to her -
Often when one sees those beautiful homes up for sale in Country Life it’s a divorce - ( according to an estate agent)

The size and value of lovely houses often makes it harder for a woman to buy out her errant husband ( let’s fact it, it’s usually men who are the greater earners in these situations, so the woman loses her marriage and her home.

Hopefully Please is surviving with the support of her adult children and she also has good long term friends.

Just adding my voice to all those who are hoping you are recovering from the grief and wishing you well. I also think about you and would love to hear that things are moving in the right direction for you. x

Hoping OP is out there and will come back.

DaphneduMaureen · 16/02/2025 08:22

Another one wishing PNM the very best. Hope she updates us one day.

Pleasenotme · 25/11/2024 00:39

Thank you all. I'm going to try and sleep now or I won't be able to function at work tomorrow. I'm physically shaking having had that message from my DD so need to try and get a grip of my heart rate and breathing, and I'm so cold which is shock I think, so I need to warm up too in bed. God bless you all, thank you for the loveliness you have sent my way x

What did you say to DD? You need to reassure her that she doesn’t need to pass on messages unless she wants to, and that things will work out in the end.

Washingupdone · 16/02/2025 17:49

Thinking of you pleasenotme and hope you are managing to take the necessary steps to your future happiness. Flowers Look after yourself.

Tealeavesinthecup · 22/06/2025 03:44
