    Wonderful @efes_shareholder - you're claiming your whole life back now MC has gone.  What you heard from his sister proves that it would just have gone on and on.  Love Humdinger xx 
    Hi Humdinger - absolutely , am so glad I stuck to my guns and refused to be manipulated.

    Suspected the move may not transpire .......................bit like all his other plans

    Well done on giving up the smoking and vaping!
    The MC's sister is right - he is like a car that one can only watch waiting to crash!  He seems incapable of looking at his life sensibly and realising he could have had his own place by now if he had sorted out his finances in a mature way. Of course the GWG will be dumping him soon when she  realises (a) he won't be funding their current lifestyle much longer (if she is an actual gold digger), or (b) she realises he's too immature to have a sensible lifestyle ( if she did actually plan to settle down with him). 
    You are well rid of him!  It is lovely though that you do have a nice relationship with his siblings. 😀

    I think your right - I can't the relationship lasting much longer , according to the sis MC has declared that he is seeing lots of red flags so she asked him why he was ignoring them when they had not been together very long !! 

    The sisters are lovely girls and really are a blessing

    its strange but my stomach has been fine for weeks , until monday evening when MC sis visited and he was spoke off in the house ( we also had a little convo re him when NM popped out the following morning ) - lo and behold the symptons returned ten fold so maybe there is something in the stress theory.

    Went to football last night , NM team lost and it was a late night so hard to get in the office today. 

    haven't taken any food out of the freezer so taking advantage of a 2 mains for £20 in our local pub which is a really good standard.

    am absolutely tired so just want , dinner , a bath and the traitors and bed tonight

    It certainly sounds like discussing MC hits your stress levels. Mind you, with what you had to put up with over the past months I’m not surprised!  Hopefully your tummy will settle as time goes on now he’s not a part of your day to day life.
