    Its the MSE in me that makes me worry about credit card :p and also because i helped him get it so we could have a mortgage! :o

    As time goes on though and he does less and less it just proves things though, if we had a baby, well he would have done nothing :o

    I'm sure Martin won't mind if you stop worrying about the credit card :rolleyes::D

    And hard though it is, I think you are moving on to the stage where you start to get angry as you realise how useless he was :mad::mad: Odd though it may sound I think this is a positive step :D

    Yep been getting a bit !!!!!! off today with him just blaming everyone else for not helping him, then trying to turn it round on me saying he would have helped more but i won't let him.

    Then brought up that i had told him i was gonna leave him anyway for someone who would want kids, i might have said i can't stay with you if the answer is never but things were said during heated discussion, then he said don't want to talk about it anyway, why bring it up then! :mad:

    Its all getting a bit tiring....thank god neither of us now have internet for a while! I am hoping a new neighbour might have unsecure internet though so i can use my itouch lol!

    Your doing great Dawn, don't let your ex bring you down. By the sounds of it his life is going backwards, and he's going to end up a very sad lonely man in his bedsit, thats no life, especially when he could of had it all with you, family, nice home, future.

    Good with with your new home - hopefully when you are all settled and your cats are living there, it won't feel as strange.

    I'm glad you are feeling better, just remember what your doing is for the best chick!

    Can't believe he expected you to pack his stuff.

    Glad you're all moved, and hope you get the net sorted soon.
    Nw is the time to let your ex worry about his own debts etc, you're not his mother, and you shouldn;t have to worry about it. Time to look after yourself.

    Just sneaking on whilst at work, will have net back by next Wednesday, going nuts without it, evenings are dull especially as only have 4 telly channels too!

    Was still staying strong until last night when had a phone call with him that made me sob for ages. He stupidly told me he had been asked out already by girls on facebook. :rolleyes: Thanks, i needed to know that.

    Then he tried to backtrack saying he was just exgarating. Sod. Apparantly he won't date for ages. Yeah right.

    Sorted out my water and electric as the previous tenant hadn't paid that either. Worked out will have £250ish spare each month after all bills, going up to £350 after March when my brace is all paid off.
