Sounds even better when you say 12 weeks rather than 3 months! Rant away. We bought our house at 21 because my sis moved back home after uni and it was awful living at home with her.One small step for ME, one giant leap for my family!

Is it really a good idea to start back with the ex? Everything you have written about him has been about you liking him more than he likes you. That it is casual to him and not to you. Is that really worth settling for?
Or maybe you are just having the company at the moment? You are so close to a life changing day that I wouldn't want to to self sabotage it by going back to doing things that are destructive for your mental well being and self esteem.
I know what you mean about parents. Mine was only here for 3 months, but by the end of it, I never wanted her to visit again. It is such a chore by the end. So living with your mum full time well I take my hat off to you

chev
Me too :T It can't be easy, so you are a Saint :A.
I kind of agree with Chev regarding the ex too. While you're with him, you're not opening yourself up to meet someone who is a "better fit" as my US sister says.
On the other hand, I understand that to have a familiar companion who you like and makes you feel good is ok too. Take Care Hun, you are doing amazingly well x0 -
I wondered if anyone would notice the ex reference
Nothing is really happening to be honest and it is him who has made all the first moves re contact - mind you it always is. I have thought long and hard about seeing him again, I do think I want to give it another go. No real reason except gut instinct.
I was thinking about the debts whilst out shopping today. There were a couple of tihngs in the book shop I wanted, didn't need them by any stretch of the imagination (after watching BBC on Thursday most of what I have I don't need!).
It is such a hold on you when you are in debt, there are few points in the month when you can think its ok now I can spend that money. Some months its all guilt and annoyance other months yes it is fine cos either you are too busy to think about it or nice things happen and the debts don't play on your mind so much. I honestly never thought I would get this close to being debt free. I can hardly imagine what it will be like to see real savings, not fake ones that should be on a CC!
got to go
be back later xxNevertheless she persisted.0 -
