I’ve got my new tree up but not happy with it. My very old tree which I paid £4 in Argos is too heavy for us to get down and back up the attic since hubby hurt his back so after last Xmas I bought a new lighter thinner I’ve from m&s for £12 in the sale! It’s hideous, skinny bare etc. Wasn’t going to pur tinsel on my tree but I had to go back up attic to find some as tree looked so bare!
Then my other dilemma us friends split up over a month ago. Both in 60s and she’s found out he’s been having an affair which he denies. She said other woman told her, been going on a for years etc. So she kicked him out and heard he was living with this other woman. He denied all and says he’s living with his mother but then my hubby had WhatsApp from him and he’s changed his profile picture and he’s on a balcony overlooking a certain area where his lady friend lives!
Things very tough between the former couple , been court case and she’s been ordered out of house a week before Xmas so she’s upset . Do I show her picture as it backs up that he’s lying about his current living arrangements!
Grogg Oh 'ecky thump what a situation to find yourself in. Firstly how would your OH feel if you shared this info? Is he good pals with the ex husband? I suspect your friend knows her ex is being economical with the truth so wonder how it would help if you told her. The converse is what if you said nothing and at a later date your friend became aware ( I think that unlikely) that you had seen this.
Then there's the question of loyalty to your friend. I think I know what I'd do if OH ok with it but then on the other hand is feeding the flame a good idea................. oh Lordy I'm meeting myself coming back now. Good luck
I’ve just messaged her to say if you have ex on WhatsApp look at his new picture!
I won’t tell her all the horrid things he said about her, be kicking her when down! My OH trying to be impartial!!
