Here goes... Given what you know now.. If time travel existed and you could go back to the time you met the person who was to cause all this mither and you had a choice as to whether to enter into the relationship EYES WIDE OPEN what would you do?

(a) Tell them to p**s off and if so what would you do instead? :laugh:

(b) Start a relationship but just use them i.e. for sex, or whatever or to pay them back for what they will do to you in the future and how would you do this? :kiss:

(c) Despite knowing the pain still go through the relationship and give your reasons why? :woohoo:

I would go through everything again. I have had some wonderful times and some sad times, but I am a much better person for everything that has happened.

hi Tia, how you doing?

Yes would def do again, my kids would be here still. They are wonderful.

But how complicated now, knowing, I would know that she started smoking behind my back, that she was hiding money, that she went to CAB whilst I was getting stuff ready for our holiday, that the reason she didnt talk to me or stopped the sex was that she was planning to divorce me?

Could I actually change all that? knowing that I would much rather be sat at home now, not knowing about wiki, stilling trading on ebay.?

Did she actually plan to use me as a sperm bank but didnt want me to be in her future, did she really just use me to get the kids, because thats how it seems, as things have fallen into place, if I really knew that,


then maybe no.....

C) Because the best thing to come out of the relationship is my children.

I was going to say that with the benefit of hindsight I could have tried to stop him spending so much time at football, but events that followed are what made me who I am today.

The only change I would make would be to not spend so much of my inheritance on him and the house, keep secret how much I got and stash it away somewhere that only I knew about lol.

LOL hawaythelads... whilst I am completely and utterly opposed to violence I also completely understand where you are coming from and your reply did made me laff although, I must add that I'm afraid I cannot allow you to use the time machine to escape from the rossers in this instance because of what you have done! Hope you understand LOL

C) because without my ex I wouldn't have my beautiful son.
Also, I couldn't go back and warn myself not to marry him when pregnant (because he was going to leave anyway) because going through all of this has contributed to who I am today:
Bruised but not broken.
I also don't regret having taken him back when I did: I know that I did everything in my power to make my marriage work, to provide a stable life for my little boy. It is him who has failed. And he is the one that will need a time machine when he comes to his senses and realises what he has lost.
