    Yes, and then ringing the auction house... it won't be easy and don't get your hopes up, but worth a try.

    I def agree with that in theory, but in practise it might be easier if you do it and know that it's done properly...

    I would make him do it whilst you are standing over him, for something a low as what he did there is no getting out of it.

    I'm sorry but if you are so skint how is weed a priority spend? I'd have thought paying the bills was a lot more important. But then I guess because he prioritises the smokes this is how the whole situation has come about.

    End of the day he might be good in all those other ways, but you have to face facts that he chose weed over you and what is important to you, the woman he claims to love.

  • dotstar24, thank you for answering my questions and not taking offence at the asking.

    I (we) may have judged him harshly, and only you can decide if what he has done is forgivable.

    On the basis of your answers to my (pretty superficial) questions, then he does seem a pretty decent guy, albeit with a vice. I can't criticise for that ;-)

    Let's hope you can get through this, and that he sees the error of his ways and can recompense you in some appropriate manner for his misdemeanor.

    Good luck!

    I can understand that - you are trying to give him the opportunity to apologise and he is throwing it away himself

    He must be mad
