fox123 Posted 23 October 2010 Posted 23 October 2010 I'd love to try and say this the mrs - I'd have my bags packed and be out of the house so quickly that I'd have thought my marriage was all just a dream. You have to put your foot down early on in the relationship.
FoxyPV Posted 23 October 2010 Posted 23 October 2010 You have to put your foot down early on in the relationship. She did.
The Doctor Posted 23 October 2010 Posted 23 October 2010 You have to put your foot down early on in the relationship. don't know about you but i don't know many people that hopped around early on in a relationship. edit: Now where did i put my coat?
Salieri Posted 23 October 2010 Posted 23 October 2010 Broke the news to gf last night that although I'd LOVE to stay at home with her on Christmas day, if I don't go to my folks for Christmas dinner I'm likely to be written out of their will. Went down like a turd soufflé. It's more than two months away and it's ruining my life already. Selfish Jesus never thought about this I do sympathise. Both mine and my partners parents are divorced and now with new partners (so that's FOUR different places we're expected to be at, not including other family of course!) so Christmas these days is more about having to appease people rather than concentrating on the important things such as getting drunk. That and celebrating the birth of Santa of course.

lildave3 Posted 23 October 2010 Posted 23 October 2010 why not invite them all to your house instead? It's christmas day not a bloody sitcom.

The Doctor Posted 23 October 2010 Posted 23 October 2010 It's christmas day not a bloody sitcom. . If you have four different people to visit at the same time, you invite them all to your house. common sense. It's only in sitcoms where they all start fighting and end up ruining the day completely.
Narborough_fox Posted 23 October 2010 Posted 23 October 2010 Not doing anything this yer. Brilliant. I already know what I want

It's only in sitcoms where they all start fighting and end up ruining the day completely. The clue is in the word 'divorced' i.e they don't get on! It's not only in sitcoms that they all start fighting and ruining the day! Your lot must be like the bloody Waltons.

His mum married a family friend and his dad married that family friend's ex-wife. Family get togethers with them are weird. Just in case I didn't explain that clearly, it went from: Husband A with Wife A Husband B with Wife B to: Husband A with Wife B Husband B with wife A Odd.

Happened in Adrian Mole repeatedly. Is this not commonplace in Leicester?
