Dearly Be-Chucked, we are gathered here today because, for whatever reason, our man has dumped us!

Come in here and chat about erection-texts, lechy lecturers and getting the painters in.

ok sounds fab Dutch, I'm up North until Jan 4 but if we can't both make it to the Surrey/C London meetups I am sure we can arrange a daytime meetup in the Xmas school hols so that the horrors little darlings can run round together and we can have a moan natter (only joking I NEVER moan, lolol)

and of course any other SE London or elsewhere dumpettes more than welcome...

argh bad day today, I can still see twuntface's facebook (why why why has he unlocked it) and am crying over it...

Hello everyone. Sorry ive been crap. Am SO "flat" lately - very tired looking after the DC, but also just... flat, that's the only word. No get up and go, nothing. I just want to hibernate, eat Dairylea and read books in bed with the electric blanket on.

In fact, I am noticing a worrying, growing passion for all things Grannyish. Crackers, pate with gherkins, big slippers, even ear-muffs, FFS. DS1 has noticed this, and when he saw an advert for the JML blanket-with-sleeves thing, he said, "You'd like one of those, Mummy!" I used to be a rock-goth, leather-loving grunge girl! Now I eat Dairylea all day, change into cosy PJs at 7.30pm, and dream of early nights!

On the up-side: I have had several new promising-looking suitors on Match emailing me, including one divine Seal-lookalike (phwoargh!) so my man-ban might be lifted in January, if I ever stop mainlining Dairylea and sort out the size of my arse.

Actualy no, forget that, I'm still off men. They seem completely pointless now I've got my amazing DC. The housework, etc, I speed through these days and everything is a lot quicker/easier without the dragging weight of resentment I used to feel towards XH everytime I Hoovered.

I can earn money, drive, I like my own company. I went to a party last week with both DC and managed to look nice, get them both ready, get there on time and have fun without the "aid" of some gormless twunt beside me, so really -- why would I need one?

Even sex is pointless since I bought a Hitachi Magic Wand with my child benefit!

So I'm at that stage. Men = pointless and distracting. DC = wonderful.

MuthaHubbard · 15/12/2009 21:18

I am also guilty of being crap and rather flat. Total 'can't be arsed'. Sadly feeling flat has not had the same affect on my figure, which is distinctly less flat - ie remove the 'l' from flat. Have put half a stone on in the last 2 months or so which hasn't aided feeling gorgeous.

But, come January, I will slowly throw of this fat suit and concentrate on making me thinner and happier and just all round fabulous so that women will want to be me and men will flock & fall at my feet begging for my attention..........................

BEAUTlFUL · 15/12/2009 21:23

Has anyone else noticed that life is easier without a bloke in it? Everything I used to persuade/force/nag/wait for XH to do around here I have since done alone, and it was easy! When I think how I used to have to suck up to him for finally agreeing to empty the bin when it was almost piling up against the wall. "Oh, thanks, H. Aren't you lovely?!" It takes 5 seconds to empty the bin, and I do it before it's stinking and overflowing.

Ditto sweeping garden. Ditto driving places. Ditto sorting out bills. Ditto putting up pictures. Ditto giving the DC baths. Ditto everything.

Hello all! Have yet to catch up but I hope everyone is doing ok. I have absolutley nothing to report minus christmas tree being up. No studying, no social life, nada.

Will go off an diligently read a weeks worth of posts now and see just how much more exciting your lives are than mine

BEAUTlFUL · 15/12/2009 21:27

I think I must be a horrible, narcississtic person, because I really can't face having to share the house with another male ego ever again. The constant smarmery that they seem to require in return for Simply Not Being A Twat. Ugh!

OP posts:
IfYoureHappyAndYouKnowIt · 15/12/2009 22:04

Know the feeling Beauty. Have had too much to do with Bald Eagle also in the last week, which has made me MOODY! It seems to go like this..I do 100 things for DCs, BE talks about doing 1, BE talks about it again, weeks later it gets half done. And you're so right about the bins!

Will be turning over a new leaf for 2010 (after what seems to be an unavoidable Xmas day with BE). Maybe an all new 2010 thread will be needed!

In the meantime, I will enjoy chocs and wine, nights out with the girlies, evenings in with the DCs and the cat, a bit of dabbling on dating sites and dreams of CLGS.

MuthaHubbard · 15/12/2009 23:17

I know exactly what you mean - i do really wonder if i could ever live with a man again, EVERYTHING seems so much easier without.

BEAUTlFUL · 15/12/2009 23:29

I think my new ambition is to become this amazing, untamable woman. Successful, astute, capable, unflappable... I will go to school events and dinner parties and just be brilliant and nice to men but completely unaffected by them. I will smile in a slightly bored/baffled way when women compain about their twattish DHs. I will exist in this perfect, testosterone-free world where everything gets done without any competitiveness, moodiness or scratching. People will gasp as I waft past with my lovely, well-mannered and smart-looking DC... "There she is, the woman who discovered the truth, and my book - "Why Men are Twats" - will sell billions.

Shallowly, I will have to look stunning for this to be really effective.

Beautiful, I love your posts. You really make me smile

makkapakkamoo · 15/12/2009 23:42

Beautiful, you sum it up so well! EVERYTHING is easier without a dumb fuckwit man around, so I am discovering only 3 weeks in

For about the last 2 years of our I relationship I NEVER desired sex, but the other night I actively seeked out stumbled across lovehoney.com and my order is due any day now How come I'm horny now he's gone..?

Ah well, at least without him draining my finances I can still afford the batteries xox

feelingpositivemum · 16/12/2009 12:41

Beautiful, you have to write that book!

BEAUTlFUL · 16/12/2009 17:54

Girls, quick, newsflash: I just bled radiators and repressurised the boiler all by myself! Yahoooo!! It's official; I really do NOT need TwuntFace XH any more.

PumaGirl · 16/12/2009 18:01

Starting - you are right - if the free stuff is great then, absolutely, take it!

But that's not always the case I find

IfYoureHappyAndYouKnowIt · 16/12/2009 18:56

Girls, maybe this is the answer.... ..ho ho ho...all of the good bits without the bad?

Over the last month I became a victim of a clever 'Eastern European' scam while out shopping. Simply dropping into Waitrose for a bit of shopping has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.

Here's how the scam works:

Two seriously good-looking young men with foreign accents come over to your car and help pack your shopping into the boot. They then both start cleaning your windscreen. Their firm young bodies bulging out of their skimpy vest tops. It's impossible not to look.

When you thank them and offer them a tip, they'll say 'No' and instead ask you for a lift to another store, in my case, Tesco's. You agree and they both get in the backseat. On the way, they start undressing, and both get completely naked. Then, when you pull over to remonstrate, one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts kissing you, touching you intimately, and thrusting himself against you, while the other one steals your purse!

I had my purse stolen on October 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th, and 29th. Also November 1st, 4th, twice on the 6th, three times last Saturday and very likely again this coming weekend.

So Be Warned!

P.S. Asda have purses on sale for £1.99 each, Morrisons are £1.75 and look nicer.

Katiekitty · 16/12/2009 21:33

Hello - newcomer squeezing in here, can I join you all?

makkapakkamoo · 16/12/2009 21:34

O.M.G.

That has really given me the belly chuckle I needed today.

There is a GORGEOUS uncle who kindly helps his sis out by taking lil one to dc's nursery. Got talking to the sister today and added her as a friend on facebook. Managed to get eye-candy uncle's fb page up and it says.....

"In a Relationship"

pants!

Oh well, suppose a little fantasising daydreaming with my new rabbit friend wont hurt..

xox

makkapakkamoo · 16/12/2009 21:35

Hiya KK, I think the only joining criteria here is that you have a sense of humour

fwiw I'm a newbie too. Welcome hun x

Katiekitty · 16/12/2009 21:46

Well, I think it was my sense of humour that kept me with him, but was ultimately my downfall.

Happy to be aboard (well, not really, but you get my drift)

makkapakkamoo · 16/12/2009 22:23

Oh there is definitely lots of support on here too, especially when you're feeling wobbly.

most of all I think it's a good place to air all those thought without worrying about boring offloading to rl friends.

I am on fb too if you want to add me its mukka pukka moo at live dot com tc of yourself hun x

startingovernow · 17/12/2009 02:48

Evening Fellow Dumplings, have been too busy having sex with MD & dc's activities to post. Have just come back from a Miley Cyrus concert with dd & am to alert to sleep so I've just caught up on the world of dumplings. Glad to read you're all keeping up the spirits & welcome to the newcomers.

Well things are progressing on the MD front but I'm not sure where it's going or how long it'll last yet, I'm just going along for the ride so to speak at the moment .

He's very keen but lacking a little in technique . I'm going for round three tomorrow night if I've got the energy & will review situation at that point. We're getting on great but he hasn't quiet managed to hit the necessary spots in the right way . He's a bit on the nervous/shy side whereas it's fair to say I'm firmly of the wanton trollop side. He also has an irriating habit of saying "this is nice" at very inappropriate moments.....I have to bite down the urge to tell him shut the fu*k up .

He's a fine body though & ticking all the other boxes so worth a little patience for now I think. Am also hoping that once he gets more used to situation he'll have less of an urge to comment on how nice it is .
