    In fairness there is never a nice way to end a relationship and as no one knows the full facts it's wrong to judge. They are both lovely people and it's our job to be there to cheer them both up, not to get involved in personal problems or start taking sides.

    Well from my personal point-of-view the important thing is not that I've been dumped - or the manner in which it was done (which seems to have taken on unwarranted importance), but the fact that the relationship is over.

    She is a wonderful lady - I don't want anyone to be in any doubt of that.

    :eek: :(

    REALLY?! Crikey, so sorry hun :(

    What happened? Is it fixable or is it defintely over for good?

    IW x

    I don't know if it is fixable. We had a good discussion on Wednesday (the 31st) and I thought that had fixed the problems we were having in terms of communication - it removed my misinterpretation of her postion and her misinterpretation of my position. Or so I thought.

    This is like that never happened.

    Never mind. Churning the situation inside my head isn't helping. Looking at Satan's Great Book Of Comfort Shopping (the Argos catalogue) isn't helping. Lying in my pit and moping isn't helping.

    Not much is TBH. I guess, take my own advice and give it time. Thank you all for your support, and for trying to clear my head.

    The final payment for my student loan came out today (I think!). Coupled with my credit cards being clear, I am free from unsecured debt. When/if the house sale goes through, then I will be clear of all debt.

    I shall post on the debt-free thread when that happens.

    Yeh! :D

    Well I can't claim to have been very active of late - real life falling to pieces. Hopefully more things will settle when I move and the house sells.

    Besides, I wouldn't be a DFW then... ;)
