Hello.

I have kind of been lurking here for a few weeks and after events this weekend have decided I had better post to vent a bit!

hello and welcome

It is silly things that set us off, I never ever wanted to get married again ever, but stupid OH started it off, now he has gone off the idea :mad:

I came home to OH last night and just cried in bed not really sure how I felt.
5. Wondering if OH only took me ring shopping as he thought it would shut me up for a while (does he not realise that this had actually unleashed a whole new beast!!)

My head is still in a whirl this morning and I just can't settle...

The whole evening must have knocked you for six, you are not mean in any shape or form, emotions are such a hard thing to control xxx

This is a bit mean - the whole ring shopping and then not getting on with it, I only hope he is planning something ultra special and this is delaying things - hugs xx

The thing that frustrates me most is that whenever I get upset, OH knows exactly why it is that I feel like that yet here I am still waiting....
I know he cant make miracles happen on the baby front but the other situation is entirely down to him and I just dont know what he's waiting for.
I know he wants to do it and I know he wants to be married before having children so why is he taking so long....

Yup mine always knows why I am upset too, he even apologises for it! Don't apologise just crack on with it!

Those of you that gave me best wishes my smear results came today, I am absolutely fine :T phew, was up all night again worrying, so so pleased I could have cried. Hopefully we will be back on track with baby making, unless he has got cold feet about that now too!!:rotfl:

Ex DH has proposed to his girlfriend

Oh Ally, that just makes it all worse doesnt it?

I found out back in August that my Ex H was about to remarry and as much as I hate him, it was a really sad day for me..... mostly because after how he treated me I couldnt believe that he had found someone to marry him again and that he was doing it all before me!!!
Just the green eyed monster coming back again but it's very annoying isnt it!!!!

I can imagine how you are feeling, even though I don't regret splitting up with my ex-husband, for some reason I always thought it would be me who would get married again first. When he proposed to his now wife, OH and I had been together just over a year and while it wasn't a surprise as they had been together for almost five years by that time, it really stung. I wanted to have DD as MY bridesmaid first, not theirs. I am friends with ex hubbys wife on facebook as that was often the easiest way to to make arrangements for DD and I hated every single wedding related update and status. Yes, we have both moved on.....well he has but I don't feel like I have.

Edit - I mean move on with our lives, not move on from our relationship.

PS - I hate the fact SHE has the same name as my daughter too, I changed mine back to my maiden name about five years ago.

Daisiegg - I am sorry I haven't added my congratulations yet, I have been battling a bit with the old green eyed monster but I seem to have shut her in a cage for a while so I wanted to say a massive congratulations :beer:, it sounds like your OH put a lot of planning and effort into it, you are a very lucky lady
