Sorry peeps

I just had a text from my wife to say that she wants to meet up for a chat, but no one else in her family are to know about it! in case it cause's an argument!

What do I do? I know I need to to tell her to grow some sort of backbone, but if her family find out there'll be hell to pay.

I'm at such a loss as to what to do!!

The question is do you WANT to meet her?

If you don't, tell her so.

If you do, take a member of YOUR family for some moral support and meet her in a public place.

Just make sure you do what you are comfortable with, and don't agree to anything you are not comfortable with. And also make sure she does not con you into giving her a key to the house to grab hold of anything else she might want :mad:

I agree with SSM. I think you should see her but ensure you take someone else with you if you can. And make sure all of the conversation is about returning your items to you. Don't let her make it about getting back together. That conversation cannot happen whilst she has your money and your things. Remember that.

Be strong Scamps.

Hi all, long-time lurker, occassional poster (when I have something interesting to offer). You all seem really friendly but there are tmes when work is crazy and I worry about going offline sometimes.

Anyway, for the next few weeks things are a bit different. I had knee surgery on Wednesday and I'll be off work for four weeks (and stuck in the house as I cant drive and I live in a rural location with no bus service). Before I went under the knife I was following the M&S glitch but couldnt find the in-store vouchers. Anyway, I have one greenredeem M&S voucher but cant order any more as they're delaying despatch until 1st Feb due to 'problems' redeeming. I'm assuming you all chatted about this on Wednesday?

Anyway, would appreciate advice as to whether its worth buying the other M&S voucher off eBay (£1.50) given I'll only be able to do one shop. I'm not a ready meal buyer normally but they might help me in my current state

and so to just share a little about me, and finally pluck up the nerve to join in, I'm 40, married, no kids but an adorable rescue collie-cross, both are currently curled up on the sofa with me.

Thanks in advance

Hello redfraggle:hello::hello::hello:

Sorry to hear about your knee...but what a great opportunity to search for online glitches:T

I can't advise you whether to buy vouchers or not:o but it's lovely to see you and hope you post lots.......a photo of your collie would be lovely:T

Are you 100% its from wife and not MIL or another member of her family trying to get you out of the house . Be extra careful scamps.

scamps, I agree it's your decision what you need to do, remember that you don't have to make any firm decisions at this stage. Nothing else to add to the other good advice given so far, bar asking your friendly neighbour to keep an eye on the house for you whilst you're away, in case the family try to pull a fast one.

What she said scamps ^^^^^^^

only you can decide what to do....but what her family think of you is immaterial now after what they have done...their opinion should count for nowt and I wouldn't give them a 2nd thought!

Scamps I agree with the others. Make her wait for your decision.

Please remember that you owe her NOTHING.

She did her utmost to destroy you.

You are both fully grown grown ups. You are not teenagers to be sneaking around. By her saying that none of her family are to know about it just proves that they are still pulling her strings.

She wants to have her cake and eat it too. I've seen this happen a lot closer to home. It doesn't end well

It's a very good idea to have someone watching the house while you're out (if you do decide to go). Good thinking elite! You'd be perfectly within your rights to ask for your belongings back before you even give her the time of day.
