    No, you both read it right!! Been going on for a while. Found out yesterday that she's been bidding on house's and one has come up (she has to call about it on the 5th) which means I'll be homeless!!! She went to see her parents last night (I don't get on with them!) and she came home at 9am this morning. She's packed a bag and gone back to her parents house. Just checked and our bank account has been cleared. Sorry if this is bringing the thread down but I need somewhere to take my mind off things. I've got a stinking hangover, so it's just as well she's taken my car.
    Sorry peeps, I'll see you in a bit.

    So sorry scamps.

    Not a lot I can say but I am thinking of you.

    So what is everyones New Years resolutions?

    Well I've got a few silly ones on my list - like making the 1/2 bag of Kettle chips I've got on the go the last bag of crisps I eat this year - I wonder how long that will last ...

    I've also got a new excel chart started so I can get a better sense of our normal everyday spends now there are just 2 of us and now is a good time as any to start now some sort of normality is returning.

    Also seen on another forum thread someone who writes in their diary 3 good (enough) things that have happened every day - this is going to be a very hard task indeed.
    “Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”

    Afternoon peeps. :)

    Thankyou all for your advice. RE- bank. no overdraft on it, yes it's joint as was savings account. Both cleared and she's put it all into a new account of her own. :( £15000 I'm not going to see again!!

    I'm surprised we lasted this long, 11 yrs+. When i first met her she'd not long got divorced from a millionaire buildings architect, (for those in Bristol, Aztec West hotel is one of his), she left with nothing. Her mother never approved of me and has always put me down to my wife, she's very very materialistic. her parents are rich and have never helped us out in any way, but has always tried to bribe my wife with a house of her own and anything she needs, added to this, the pressure from her 18 yr old son who can only see £ signs in his head from them. Well, she finally cracked. It's her parents who have been bidding on a house for her and they've promised her everything as long as she leaves me!! They even threatened to cut her out of their will if she didn't!!!!!

    That said, I started this relationship with nothing, and It'll end with me having nothing and I'm not that bothered to be honest. Yes it's hurting, but I know that with time It'll get easier, I'm not daft!!!

    With the support from friends and my virtual family (you lot) I'll get by. It's just comforting to know that if and when I'm down, I can come on here for a chat and a pick me up.

    Now wher did I leave my drink, Ah, here it is. Cheers peeps. Happy New Year. :beer:

    No pun intended, scamps but that is the spirit.:beer:
    Everyone is here for you whenever you want.
    Take care.

    Oh Scamps that dreadful. What a selfish spoiled brat she is. Not sure what the legal bit is but remember you can divorce her for her assets too. If she buys a new house ,I would be asking them to trace the money.

    I know my sister was told to give half to her husband or sell up. Her mum had given her the money for the house in first place but it was in joint names

    Good luck dont be a doormat and walk away I would fight to the end. You earned it too
