    Marriage :eek: *shudders*

    Even though I was with my ex 6.5 yrs I never wanted to get married, its not in me but I think thats cos of my parents marriage :rolleyes:

    I was reading a trashy mag today and this poster was in it.

    So funny! I recommend if we ever get cheated on we do this ladies (and men!)

    I think that's truly F fabulous & very therapeutic :rotfl::T. Not nuts at all. I had a b/f a long time ago who cheated on me , so I pulled the wing mirrors off his beloved alfa romeo & then popped them into his pint while he was sat in the pub with all his friends & suggested that he might like to remove all his belongings from my house asap before I did the same to his 'bits'.

    Admittedly I was way younger then & full of feisty whereas now I'd probably opt for a more subtle yet equally satisfying revenge ;).

    With you on the marriage too & I've had 2 children & 2 engagements :rolleyes:. children & cats are for life, but a man is just for christmas :rotfl:

    When I split with my ex husband due to his cheating I wished baldness and impotence on him. 10 years later he is bald (and not in an attractive way) and also impotent!!!! :rotfl::rotfl:
