Typical..


This afternoon I received a random, out of the blue text message from Gav saying 'We should meet up and talk, when you free?'



I asked him why, and to talk about what and he said baby stuff.

So that's fine and very noble of him to make a move like that, but I've been asking him to do just that for the last 2 months and he's shot me down every time saying its pointless. I know I should just accept this 'grand gesture' and meet him for bubs sake, but its only been this last week or so that I've begun to truly accept we're over and start to get over him. Now its all going to be stirred up again and I'm not well at the moment either so I just don't have the energy for it.

If I decline to meet him, he's going to get even more arsey with me, but if I meet him I just know i'm going to get upset and have to go through the whole getting over him process again.

Sods bloody law. What a twit.

Aww huni, well surely it's a good thing for bubs sake? If you don't think you can handle it then don't, tell him you're unwell and sort something out for a few weeks time when you're feeling better. Otherwise I don't really know what to suggest if you don't want him involved.

Um...I would decline. Meet on your terms. If he really wants to meet over the baby, he'll meet another time. Call him up again in a week or so when you feel a bit stronger over the situation.

I declined by telling him i'm really not well at the moment, I can barely get out of bed let alone travel to go and meet him but when i'm better we will meet. He's now having a go at me saying i'm messing with him and being awkward on purpose. I'm trying to be civil but for gods sake, he's messed me around enough already. I can't do this right now I don't have the energy

Awww hunni

Ive had the same problems with my ex aswell. He used to keep knocking me back then one day he decided yes, let's talk. It kinda knocked me for six to be honest!!

We then cam to an arrangement that every Thursday he would call for Bump updates. Yes he has kept to that but he's never actually asked about bubs, always goes on about himself & footie. What a freak. So we've never actually sorted anything yet!!

MEN!!!

Just to update slightly.. he was texting me until 2am this morning, calling me a bitch whore and whatever else. Lovely man, eh? I have no idea why he's being so difficult.

He also told me if I want money then I should sell my engagement ring. Okay, so we're not engaged anymore but I don't want to sell the ring. Its still special to me, I still wear it sometimes (on my right hand not my left) and as daft as it sounds, its the perfect ring. There's a whole story behind it, but lets just say its actually the engagement ring i've always dreamt of so why would i want to sell it to a pawn shop?

So glad I declined to meet. I definitely couldn't cope with it right now, i'm not strong enough physically nor mentally.

Because he knows he's in the wrong, so its his 'defence' mechanism.

I've just found out he's going to Kos for 2 weeks in 2 weeks time. So he can't afford to give me money for his share of baby stuff but can go to Kos for a fortnight. He needs to teach me how to do this so I can go on holiday too.
