Family get together at the weekend, also invited a few friends. Mate of mine who was introduced to me 10 years ago by a lass I worked with as I was renting a room from her was with is all. At the time, I was new in town, living in a room let, why not.. anyhow past history moving on.

He’s been a really solid friend through the years. The girl BTW is a total screw up. She’s thrown away her life in so many ways, and three years ago my mate, to which we all don’t know why, got together with her, and get her pregnant.

Now they both live together, and I’ve never been totally agreeable to how she treats him, but its none of my business and we’ve basically left him to it. He’s always had a soft spot for her.. 10 years ago when I first met her at work, she was with a chap who seemed ok, she was quite fit looking however it soon became apparent that my at the time new friend was sweet on her.

She split with her boyfriend and made advances on me, this was 7 years ago now. I mistook her advancements and tried to kiss her, to which she rejected and I felt a bit of a, well you know…

Since then I’ve never trusted her, but she’s always been around due to me still being friends with the same friend she introduced to me. I’ve always respected him, he’s a solid chap, and has always helped me when needed, and always been there for me..

Since those two got together, its never gone well between me and him since. Not to say, she’s really let herself go. She is massively overweight, scraggy looking hair and is lazy and doesn’t even work, every job she’s got she’s been fired or let go before her inductions are over.

Anyhow, across the table on Saturday evening, she tells me, in front of everyone, and even my fiancé, and in front of my mate, her boyfriend whom has had a child together with that she’d made a mistake in life and wish my mum who was sat at the same table as us, that she wishes my own mum was to be her future mother in law, and that my fiancé doesn’t get on with my mum and its not fair, as I’m better looking then her boyfriend and can offer her more. Erm… What the hell. Just what do you say to that? Especially as it was in front of all my family, and my fiancé. Fiancé is hopping mad, and quite rightfully so.

Safe to say, questions where asked. I’ve already explained the past events to my mum and my fiancé, I wouldn’t have been so bad if she was drunk or something…. I have no idea how I get myself into these situations.

Basically, I’ve decided best for me cut all ties to this so call past mate as she really is poison, and lose a solid friend in the process. What would you do? I know in the future my mate is going to get hurt, but I can’t risk my own life due to some spiteful tongue cow..

If it was me, id have a chat with your mate and tell him that you cant have her saying stuff like that so you will have to cut all ties, unless she can be more subtle.

I wouldn't let a silly women like that, ruin what i had with my fiance in anyway.

This to be honest.

It's not just a bit off course, it's sailing in the completely opposite direction!
 
you don't need to sack her off and not see him. just don't see them when they are out together...

explain to your mate. if he doesn't like it then its bye bye.

simple.
 
crazy cow is crazy :eek:

Hopefully your family knows this and everyone cut ties with her.

KaHn
 
About had enough of her anyhow, only reason I still talk to her is because of a mate. She is a total loon. Been known to shoot her mouth off a few times, just never affected me, like I said 7 odd years ago she was a lot different. Amazing how some change over the years.

Looks like I’ll have to talk to him, tell him its nothing to do with me in regards to their relationship, but if she can’t keep her trap shut then she’s not welcome to anymore family events, or even out with me and missus. They’ve had a few small issues in the past, but this takes the biscuit..

My mum is appalled. You know, my missus and my mum never have seen eye to eye on most issues, but this really has got them both seething. Actually its kinda nice to see them both, or at least hear them both talking on the phone about it, and having a good old mother in law, daughter in law moan and put the world to rights conversation. lol

Anyhow, I’ll talk to him. Stupid woman, wish he’d just see her for what she actually is…
 
Girl is the one who spoke rudely.
Bloke is my mate, she is his girlfriend.

I’m makes with the bloke, couldn’t give too hoots about his missus. I know her as I rented a room in her house around 10 years ago. I met him because of her, they have been friend for years.

She splits with her current boyfriend, finally my mate gets together with her, and then the troubles start.

I know its confusing…
 
Now I am confusion.

I had trouble decrypting who was who in the OP.

If im reading it right that is, then the mate is a bloke whos with some mad girl, then at dinner the other night the mad girl professed her love to the op infront of family, fiancee and her boyfriend (the mate). Op doesnt want anything to do with mad girl, which might mean losing touch with good mate aka mad girls boyfriend. I think :)

Edit - Slooooow
