    Oh no Money Fritter, I didn't want to just read and run.

    Some people just don't know a good thing when they've got it! Glad you're looking on the brightside because being single does have its advantages.
    Everything happens for a reason and one day you will meet someone that appreciates how nice you are and will respect you enough not to walk all over you!

    Sorry it's been a carp day for you, it can only get better.

    Take care of yourself :A

    p.s...well done on your NSD's and everything else moneysaving.. you're doing great as always!

    Well hardly slept much last night. I really love my ex so much. Everything was going so well, we were perfect for each other, but it was the wrong circumstances, which I am trying to get my head around. She did not walk all over me, she was pefect. I am just abit too nice for my own good and I wear my heart on my sleeve and fall in love to easy.

    Anyway, nevermind, I will just have to try and easy the pain by matched betting and paying off them debts and decorating the house.

    Take care everybody

    Hi MF,

    I'm so sorry to hear your news.

    As Bowski says everything happens for a reason - even though it may be difficult to see it at this time.

    Take care.

    Well done on the NSDs by the way - I'm struggling with them (as always).

    However, on the down side, I am single, once again, why does this always happened to me. Well the simple answer is I am too nice for my own good and just get walked on all the time. I am never meeting anybody ever again. It is too painful. Well at least I will save alot of money now and I can decorate. lol :rotfl:

    HI MF
    Am so sorry to hear about your break-up. Is it definitely not fixable?

    You do absolutely sound too nice, so it's horrible to read that you are upset. Things sound like they are going well on the MSE side of things. Make sure you treat yourself somehow and look after yourself. :A

    Sorry to read that you are a singleton again..singledom has its advantages but there are disadvantages too as it means that you have to deal with the spiders by yourself:eek:

    Things do happen for a reason and you never know what will happen in the future - never is a long time and you will find love again when you least expect it.

    Well done on the NSDs too - I am not doing so well but I did manage to spend £1.50 yesterday in the pub buying two soft drinks but then I saved too as lunch was brought for me:j

    Hi everyone,

    Thanks for the comments. I think maybe it is a good thing to be on my own for awhile, it will give me chance to decorate and get debt busting. I suppose deep down I knew a long distance relationship would not work.

    Horace- Good job I am not scared of spiders, I just get a glass and let them out of the house. :rotfl:

    Anyway made 10p and 10p on scratchcards today.

    Off around to my friends tonight for a curry night

  • Good Morning, everyone,

    Well had a great curry night with my friends, watched a DVD and had a few beers and only spent £17. So not to bad.

    Yesterday, I got stuck in with vigour with the decorating again, it is all coming together now and I am starting to see light at the end of tunnel and it looks really good.

    I won 2x10p on the scratchcards yesterday and 1x20p and 1x10p today.

    Yesterday I managed to get £51 on the matched betting again, so going really well with that.

    I did not manage a NSD yesterday though as after a tough day of decorating I had a chinese. However, I am hoping to have one today.

    Take care

    Hi MF - looks like you had a very productive weekend. Glad you enjoyed your night out with friends.

    Well done on getting on with the decorating as well - and you've not done too badly on the scratchcards and matched betting so I think you were right to treat yourself to a Chinese.
