Title: My Xmas story. Post by: Jb101 on May 03, 2014, 01:43:50 AM Playing in my head this afternoon, so I thought I would share.
We had talked about having Xmas with her and her mother joining my family for the day. Next time I talk to her about it she'd booked a place in the country out of town and wanted me to come... . So I tried to compromise and had lunch with my family, didn't touch alcohol, and then drove 4 hours to have dinner with her and her mother and stay with them for a couple of days. Everything was lovely until half way through dinner. My uncle called, demanded I turn my phone off and it was rude... . I don't know about everybody else, but sometimes I could tell when she was about to go looking for an argument and go off the rails. So she has a few drinks... . everything is ok, but she's ignoring me and treating me like crap whenever her mother isn't in the room... Bought her an expensive handbag she'd asked for for a Xmas present, and honestly spent a small fortune on gifts, even made her mother cry with the nice things I said in a card etc. We'd all gone to bed and next thing she goes off at me, tore strips off me and told me I was the scum of the earth... She'd wanted diamonds and jewellery and I obviously wasn't a real man as I couldn't afford to buy them for her. And then on about how I must have bought diamonds for other girls before and wasn't treating her properly. Got very intense to the point where she wouldn't stop and I went and slept in another room. About 5 in the morning she comes in crying and begging me to come back to bed so her mother won't find out 'she'll be heartbroken if you leave in the morning'... . For what reason I don't know I came back and tried to pretend it was a bad dream. I stupidly stayed the next day, and she pretended nothing had happened. Just felt like sharing. Anybody else have any holidays ruined beyond recognition? Title: Re: My Xmas story. Post by: AwakenedOne on May 03, 2014, 08:27:14 AM Anybody else have any holidays ruined beyond recognition? Jb101, My ex raised hell and ruined most holidays. To be honest all the holidays of the last 4 years are a complete blur to me. I'm still trying to figure out why it was like this. More often than not holidays would definitely be miserable and hellish. Weekends were grief filled because we spent time together a lot. So I guess it's the same with holidays, more opportunity for arguments and bs to ensue. One that stands out was two Thanksgivings ago. That one was more hell than the usual hell Thanksgiving. lol Peace, AO |
