I has left me wondering somewhat…


Although I’m more *drunk* about the fact she now has a working mini, that she can now either keep, sell, or use under the scrap page scheme and a 4 bed house, which she could also (most probably) sell and profit from and I’m left with nothing and two non-working minis.

My heart goes out to you friend


the feeling of disgust!!

life is such a *female dog*.

if i were you there'd be parts missing from her mini every morning !

Unfortunately even though my spare mini keys I have do fit her mini (with a bit of wiggling) and I would love to do just that, but unfortunately if I did I would even up in the *melon* so to speak as I don’t have anyway of proving the bits are mine and I’ll probably end up hospitalised for my efforts.

I did have the idea while I was still with her to knick the v5 for it sign it over into my name without her knowing and just suddenly turn up and take it. Just i never did get long enough to find and nick the requited bit of the v5.

Would have been pretty good payback, one solid mini with a really healthy (thrashed by me) 1275 MG metro lump under the bonnet (it was down on the v5 when bought as a 998), some nice new wheels and tyres and bucket seats etc.

Well i did get her to change it on the v5 along with her new address when it needed taxing (she paid for once), so at least the car’s paper work matches.

The insurance I don’t know, knowing her it probably still down as a 998, but then again as I wouldn’t be surprised is she never bothers once it runs out. I would put money on her using the mini alone without L plates, experienced driver etc. While still on a provisional, besides what’s the worst they can do, take away licence you don’t have.

Wouldn’t be the first thing she’s done, living with her partner in several places but claming as if they were both single, avoided for paying the TV licence for the flat in town since January, the list goes on…

Maybe advice from an "old fart" can help. There are several facts that should be considered:

1. If trust is broken, it proves that the breaker was untrustworthy...hence not worth worrying about

2. Tash is right...you have to kiss many frogs etc. I forget how many girlfriends I had before my wife. In fact one of my ex's if now my sister-in-law (she married wife's brother)

3. Compromise is a two way street an MUST remain so. All giving one way is a recipe for disaster.

4. As hard as it may seem, recognise when a relationship is over and try not to brood over it.

5. The best "revenge" you can get is to show an ex that you have moved on and are enjoying life without them.

6. For those that play the lottery, you don't expect to win with the first ticket.....life is just like that...

2. I think all these fairy tale stories of how people met their wife at school and stuff is what makes it all seem so much worse when it doesn't work out. You never hear the stories about how people met their wife and they were their nth girlfriend.

4. I definitly find this one difficult. Especially when I've nothing to occupy myself with.

5. That's most certainly true! Easier said than done but very factual.

All advice and views are welcome, no matter what age you are .

i really like this topic, it's like group therapy! haha
but honestly, it does feel a little bit reasurring that people care!

[davidv]

When you are old like me 46 its harder to find a new one many years ago when i was at the young junior school i had a girlfriend until we were 18 we are still friends she is ok and married another man i was not happy about that he is no good

[Deathrow]

I like this topic too, makes me feel more like a part of the big TMF family, hehe .

David, that sucks . Saying that, some of my attractive friends are with guys I don't consider to be any good, they all do things that would suggest they don't want to be in the relationship they are in. They always seem to be actively seeking someone else so they can get away :/.

I met my better-half over the internet!

We lived 240 miles apart and there's a 12 year age gap!

In 2006, we first started talking on here and on A-Serious - but we were just friends. In 2007, we both had an awful year, so we just kept each other company and chatted until silly-o-clock. (Still not having ever met each other!)

Then, in March 2008, we both went to a mutual friend's leaving do - so we were to meet for the first time!

And, from then onwards, he's been my best friend & the love of my life!

He moved down to Hereford in August 2008.


We've just bought our first house together and we complete on Wednesday!



The way I see it - Just be yourself - You'll meet someone when you least expect it - if you're just you, you're more likely to be honest with the person that you meet and they're more likely to be honest back - you don't have to pretend to be anyone else.

If you'd have told me, in 2007, that in 2 years, I'd be in full-time employment, in a job I love & own a house with the man I love - I'd think you were completely barmy, lol
