    Hmmmm, long story short.

    It doesnt take a rocket scientist. I was tempted to call him, but decided not to bother. What was i hoping to achieve from the call? And why do i even care?

    So what?! So I went swimming to the gym etc etc.

    Now your all totally up to date.

    XJOX - big hugs - go to the bathroom, get the shampoo and conditioner out and WASH THAT MAN RIGHT OUT OF YOUR HAIR! You're right, it's not rocket science. You are better than him. remember that

    Oooh, I've been censored! I didn't even know the word I used was a swear word! It just means idiot, it wasn't that rude!
    Valli, thanks for thinking of the word I was trying to remember, dignified. That's what you are being Jo, very dignified.
    Good point about the number, surely he would know if it was you that called him, cos your number would show up!

    You deserve better Jo, someone who cares about you and wants just you and to give you all the time and love you need

    ooh Jo good for you for standing up to him...and now make him pig sick (sorry not a flu joke) when he seeds the new, svelte, in control person you are...how pathetic - and she can't be much better clinging on to him. How sad.
    he sounds completely spineless IMHO.


    Yes this is my masterplan......not because i really care what he thinks, but you always feel better when you bump into your ex when you look good!

    No he hasnt deleted my number, but I have got a new phone with a new number and he doesnt know what that is. The calls are from a witheld number, which my house phone does.

    He admitted it was just an excuse to call. Its clearly bothering him that Im not calling and ringing him......thats what he is used to.

    Purlease! :rolleyes:

    My friend is coming round tomorrow night for a girly, pamper-ourselves evening, so will wash him out then! :rotfl:

    Ohhhh i feel much better xx

    Well how am I going to manage flying and working I really am not sure. Have been full of good intentions but not come to much but after a spurt just now have finally finished the bedroom so

    another star please :j

    Only managed two stars this week but a bit of a miracle really. I am pleased though on another count as I managed to get to the gym three times (including this evening which was really difficult (to get there - once I am there I am fine) so back on track with the exercise.

    Going up north to see DD tomorrow afternoon (back Monday) and tutoring in the morning so that is really it flying this week. Will try and do quick tidy up round the living room tomorrow before I go and then make that room a priority next week - will try and make that my 'star' room as it's the one room which didn't get touched at all this week and it shows.

    Have got my curly wurly as my little treat to myself and going to have a catch up on the thread although think it may take a while....
    Proud to be dealing with my debts
