Its not really a comfort but at least you now know and that you wernt going mad or imagining it. sending you lots of hugs and we are all here for you to rant at x

    Oh my god GISI, and oh my god Sugar :(:(:( both very very bad things.

    GISI, you are being incredibly grown-up and calm about it and I hope you can have a good vent with a friend if not here. Very sorry to hear.

    SS, any chance that their minds can be changed? Are they legally secure in denying you? That is incredibly frustrating and unreasonable. What a nightmare :angry:


    We have been for a 34-week scan today because of OH's hypertension during last pregnancy; everything is going 100% normally this time and regular BP too, so that was good. OH wanted me to make the point that the lady doing this scan (and her last one too) was really awesome and basically she had great experiences at them, which is good as she is always reading horror stories about obnoxious people or incompetent appointments etc.

    :mad: GISI. Did you pee on his toothbrush?

    I am also :mad: because my work's personnel department have decided that they will not support my parental leave, which leaves us €2000/month worse off. I need to sort something out tomorrow, because they have been sitting on this knowledge for seven weeks and done nothing about it before telling me today. I have to be :mad: because if I am not :mad: I will cry my heart out.


    OMG I am totally :mad: for you SS. That is disgraceful, especially the fact that they didn't tell you.


    I would quite like to go and scratch her eyes off- interestingly both hers and her husband's profiles have disappeared off FB (we have lots of friends in common) as I was tempted to go and write something very uncomplimentary on here wall :rotfl:.

    GISI, I am in awe of your calmness. :A

    How you have refrained from doing damage to his private parts and firing off to do some damage to her face i do not know.

    Dont want to anger you more, but have they blocked you at all? They wouldn't show up anywhere to you if you were blocked.

    Does her husband know about what happened?

    Gisi - :mad: what a douche!! How come he admitted it to you? Was it through guilt? I'd be punching her lights out if it was me, but then I'm totally unhinged :D

    What's the deal with chutney can I ask? The only chutney I ever eat is mango, and that's with my poppadoms. I honestly wouldn't know what to use onion chutney with? Like on toast?

    I really need to start getting Miss Bop some presents in, as my mother has given me the money(well its pending :p) for Keira's electric scooter (£100) as her gift to her, so now I'm back at square one, hmmmmmmmm!!!!!

    I was going to do a hamper for my sisters birthday, I ordered some reduced Paris hilton perfume (no idea if it smells like spoiled milk like) off asos yesterday so paid £2.50 :rotfl: a Jelly belly bath set she can have too, was going to get some vitamin E cream or something to put in too as she is suffering horribly bad with stretchmarks. not sure what else I could put in to "fill it up" ?
  • GISI I also think you are being very composed in your outlook and admire you for it. Does this woman have a husband/partner? As I would be making a visit to him to tell him what a sl*g hes married too!

    Anyway if you dont have a dog Im sure you could find one on the street that needed his teeth cleaning.... also brush his fur on his backside too! (not that Ive ever done this of course!)

    GISI im here writing this and not sure what to say, He has come to you and admitted it which really he could have kept quiet and made you feel that it was all in your head. I think you always have that gut feeling and sadly in my case it was right every time. I have put down ground rules which seem to be working and i will admit things have been hard but we are moving forward.

    Get it all out, make sure he knows exactly how you feel and what steps will be taken if you find out this has continued. Set ground rules so that you feel comfortable with,the one here is Oh has to let me know exactly where he is and when he will be back. We have others but this is an example.
    Most importantly this is his fault so do not blame yourself or let him blame you. Im here if you want to pm/chat anytime.

    eta although i would love to carry out some of the above threats i couldnt, but i did get revenge and felt better for it! I would tell her OH even if its in a letter etc, i would make sure she knew that you know everything and make her sqirm.
    What's for you won't go past you
