  • I'm terrified of my room being smashed up again when I go out later and I feel too ill to see my friends; been sick and am crying as I feel ill anyway; through pure upset as I have a lot else going on too.

    Aww ((hugs))

    If they are gonna trash your room, and prove their pettiness, then i'd just advise you to hide valuables, or stay at home.
    This isn't a way to to live in your own home, and you should take some action...maybe involve police?!

    But, if their friend really is ill, then trashing your room should be the last thing on their minds!!

    Hope that helps flickering.

    Sorry can't think of anything else, can barely keep eyes open, so will have to go now, and see you tomorow!!
    Hope things don't get bad.

  • The police know and have everything on file...I am gonna let it all be fully sorted when I leave as I have nowhere safe to go and the agency won't put a lock on my door and said if I put one there then they'll do me for criminal damage. The agency won't help me in any way and I am going to lose my deposit cos my housemates have caused so much damage eg they've painted cartoons on the walls.

    flick, hugs xxxx

    well mil had another go at me yesterday, said why hadnt i been down to see her, well maybe the fact she lives20 miles away and i dont drive has something to do with it, she said i could have taken the bus, well that would getting bus to town then getting on another bus to where she lives, with the kids in tow, something that i cant do and she damn well knows it, nothing stopping her coming up but no its my fault as per usual

    lo was in tears last night as he enjoyed himself so much and he hardly sees her
  • (((PPD))) Typical MIL. Just be the better person. Ignore her, and say, "LO had a wonderful time with you yesterday and would love to see you more. How about you come over (on X day, or everyX day)...I'd love to come to you but you know it's tricky lugging the kids on 2 buses for 20 miles...besides they have their toys and home comforts here so maybe you could play (board games they like) or on the (game console if they have) with them...
  • Sweeten the deal by offering her a nice roast dinner or her favourite food!!

    yeah done the bribe of i'll do the dinner etc if you come over, shouldnt have to bribe her to come over though should i? my kids come last on her list, its her first, then come dh's sisters, then their kids, the kids every year get invited to a pantomine in jan, every year without fail, well this year they didnt, she took her other grandson instead, when we asked she said oh we did phone, no one was in, she hadnt even bothered, we did check
  • I don't know why she's being like that...are you DH's first wife/long term partner? I know my ex's mother broke down when I dumped him and begged for me to come back cos she adored me and thought of me as a daughter...maybe she is hung up on one of his exes? Sorry if this offends you; I'm trying to help and am tired and tactless *hugs*
