Just after Christmas we were watching TV and the Ring doorbell went off. So I looked on the video cam, and there stood my ex friend on my doorstep. I couldn’t believe it. I had gone totally non contact with her for over 3 years. She was an absolute horror of a human being. A leech, a drain, and a spiteful narcissist. Even though I was on benefits she used to drain me of money weekly, cigarettes, petrol, groceries. Could I cook something for
her boys, she hadn’t had time to get to the shops. Yes, this floated. I fed her family four times a week, and there was four of them. She used me, and at the same time abused me. She loved to sound of her own voice. You couldn’t tell her anything that had happened during the day, you know, those little stories. Like who you bumped into, or something in the news. All she wanted to do was talk and repeat the same crap, over and over again. Her life was a drama. She used to call or text me over ten times a day. If I didn’t respond she would simply turn up on the doorstep. She never left me alone. She was struggling so I stayed in her life.
She drained me, financially emotionally mentally, when she used to leave my house I would almost collapse she was such hard work.
One day my daughter and I got caught in a rainstorm. It absolutely bucketed down with rain. We were soaked. We rushed home and had to take all our clothes off because we were saturated, almost like we’d jumped into a swimming pool fully clothed. As we are peeling off my mobile goes off. It’s her. So I say quickly to her, ‘I will call you back, we got caught in that rain, and I got to get this stuff off’ and I hung up. 30 minutes later she calls back and this is what she says. ‘There’s no rain forecast for Bolton today”. Me, well it bucketed down, me and Ang got soaked. Her, “I just called Irene who lives near you, and she said it wasn’t raining there’. Me, well it definately rained, you know it is possible for it to rain on one side of town and not the other’. Silence. me, do you think I’m making this up? Her, yes. Me, why would I make up a story about it rainin? Her, I can never tell when you are lying to me, your life is boring,so it makes sense you’d lie about something like that.
BYE
Three years free of her and her bullshit. And it turned out to be the straw that broke the camels back. I live my life without her. She was awful.
