If it was me I'd make certain his church know what a lying pair they are.
Thirty odd years ago my mother left my dad when she had an affair. I had nothing more to do with her. Imagine my anger when a few years ago I met up with an old school friend, who had happened to bump into my mother many years earlier. My mother had told my friend that my dad had had an affair with his secretary....... A complete lie, dad worked in a manual role in a factory, never had a secretary, and was completely the innocent party.
I never told him what lies she had spread about him, he would have been devastated. He's dead now.

Padstow - OMG, I can't believe he did that to you! At least for me the other woman works with us on a sort of freelance basis sometimes, she's not right in there with everyone else knowing what's going on. How awful.[STRIKE][/STRIKE]I am a long term poster using an alter ego for debts and anything where I might mention relationship problems or ex. I hope you understand

Dear God, I've just been attacked by a lynch mob on the benefits board as I told them I currently earn £10,400 for full time work, so a low salary, and they went mental. What a horrible bunch. They are all saying that despite the circumstances I'm lucky and should stay living here and stay working with him.[STRIKE][/STRIKE]I am a long term poster using an alter ego for debts and anything where I might mention relationship problems or ex.

Do you have a partnership agreement? I take it this is not a Ltd Co.
If so, why are you taking home a regular wage? You should have been receiving your % of profits before tax. You have far greater rights than a married couple as business partners. Please fill in the gaps.0 -
I'm sorry to hear all this OP.Cash not ash from January 2nd 2011: £2565.:j
OU student: A103 , A215 , A316 all done. Currently A230 all leading to an English Literature degree.
Any advice given is as an individual, not as a representative of my firm.0 -
I've just read that thread - you received really shabby treatment. How can they say £200 is a good weekly wage? Most folk on benefits seem to be loaded (if you're a single parent and know how to work the system).
Thinking about your part of the business, like Padstow said, there are a lot of gaps in your info. I get the feeling your wage is a bit "cash in hand"? Correct me if I'm wrong and I hope I am as you don't stand a cat's chance in hell of getting your share if this is the case.0 -
I read four replies before you came out all guns blazing OP.

It is true that you receive more than some. I get £142 pw. Jsa get something like £70pw.
It's all undeniably bad though and those with kids don't need as much as they receive. Things should be evened out more.
Please try and answer my previous post as I'd like to help based on my own experience as a business partner.0 -

Who the hell suggested she was a doormat
I was dead impressed with your response Ostrich! 0 -
Of course he wants to bed 2 women at a time....he wants to have his cake and eat it!
This is nothing to do with his religon, culture creed or ethnicity, this is a selfish prig of a man wanting to have 2 women eating out of the palm of his hand.
Run away as fast as your legs will carry you OP, never look back.
Plenty more fish in the sea as they say, and you would be hard pushed to find another one as selfish and cruel as this one.
Dont tell your parents the whole kaboodle, but say youve split up and ask if you can stay with them until you get back on your feet, I'm sure that wouldnt stress them out too much0 -

Did you start a thread entitled "What am I entitled to?....."
If so, it was always going to be a bloodbath
You're lucky to have walked away with your teeth in tact. "One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."
Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."0
