    But you've done a really impressive job of handling it and getting rid. I definitely wouldn't be as calm as you sound or as positive as you've been!! A lesson learned for me too I think.

    Why do girls fall for losers and bad boys?? They just love it dont they but then when it turns bad,it isnt so good and mr rock steady eddy (boring guy) then can seem a much better prospect.
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    Made me laugh about selling socks, I remember when an Ex left me once I was overcome by a real urge to take it all down the bottom of the garden and burn it!!!

    I did.

    Every soft toy, present, photograph and item of clothing left behind after I threw him out for sleeping with a friend when she stayed with me while down on her luck (I threw her out first).

    I sat on a rockery stone and smoked a packet of cigarettes one after the other and lit them using burning items poked onto the end of a stick.

    But then I was very young and into making grand statements. Now I know better and would sell the stuff.

    By God it felt good though!

    But once it has gone bad, Mr rock steady eddy views them as damaged goods and is not interested. That is also the way of things.

    Hi Dipsy
    not got any advice to offer but I just wanted to say a big "WELL DONE" for dealing with this situation so positively. :T
    You sound a really strong lady.

    Good luck with finding the millionaire who's only got 2 months to live. :rotfl:
    When you find him, ask him if he's got an even richer brother with only a month to live (for me). :rotfl:

    Best wishes for the future.

    Hi Polly cat,,,, yes will do :-)

    ha ha....

    @c-mababejive

    I can honestly say I have never ever been with anyone that I would considereda loser up until this point, and in fairness to me I could have put up with it longer... or deal with it which I have done...

    People only get treated the way they allow people to treat them... and I had reached the end..... I didn't want to hear anymore lies/empty promises etc
