Three strikes

The past week wasn't to bad, got the car back last Monday and they had replaced the radiator and Air hose, for a cost £2 shy of £200. I think the hose had been broken for a while as all the faults that I had previously have now all gone.

The weekend was good but also a lot of arguing. I was supposed to go out Friday night to a mates house but as i had played football Wednesday and help another mate with his pc Thursday nigh the exgf decided to be spiteful and said she is going out Friday to which I said fine and left it at that.

When I got home Friday she had/was asleep on the sofa so me and my son went up to my room and played on the ps3, we went down a little later and i cooked dinner for us all, where she turns round and tells me she is not going out, so instead of saying anything i carry on. Friday night just pans along.

Saturday we need to be out the house early as need to get to the bank to pay the rent due to new bank account not set up just yet, then we take our son to the park along the sea front and meet up with one of his friends. We stay there for about 2hrs with them darting all over the place and having fun. We then go and do a quick shop for some essentials.

We got home and and faffed sorting things out and chilling. Then she informs me she is going out, which was fine with me, for some reason we have a fight and she tells me she wants me to move out as she can't do this anymore. So off she goes after dinner (as she is walking out, I ask does she still want me to move out, her reply was no)and i put our son to bed and chill out in my room on the ps3.

I go to bed but get woken with a start when I see her walking in to my room (its amazing when your asleep you can pick up on signals), she sits on the bed then starts going off on one telling me she doesn't need me and that she can cope fine on her own and that she is not sponging of me and I need to appreciate her more. This was due tot he fact I moaned that she could have given all of the money that was being paid in to her account (from my wages) instead of just the rent, that she was doing me the favour.

I'm not sure what she was getting at but I was so tired I almost drifted off to sleep.


Yesterday I took my son swimming and he had a great time, I cooked us a roast (she moaned I put garlic in with the chicken). After i put our son to bed I got the ironing out (yes just mine as I had so much and will be tackling more tonight) and started doing that, whilst she was watching TV, i had been ironing for a while so asked if she was making tea, the reply was no, so after a couple of items I went to check on my son and made myself a cup, I wish I hadn't, she started to go off on one at me, I took it that she didn't want one, what it was really, was she was waiting for her program to end. So then she starts bawling at me, telling me she wants me to move out, that I am selfish etc. So I said fine I will move out then, but give me a little time was trying to find a place when bankrupt is not going to be easy and I need to save for the deposit, she was telling me to move in with my dad or brother. My brother is house sharing with students and no room for me and my dad is in a studio flat and sleeping on his sofa, she told me to take my sleeping bag with me. When she saw that it made sense for me to maybe not go, she decided she was leaving but our son would have to stay with me and I would need to sort arrangements for him during the week/s until I could move out, so I said fine I'll drop him off to you in the mornings, I got a backlash for that to, saying why should I do that as when she is a single mum she will need to do that as well as sort out a new job.

I carried on ironing and when i had done what I needed/bare to do I put the stuff away and went and made my sons and my sandwiches for lunch, as I was doing this she came down with our son as he still hadn't gone to sleep and we had a cuddle, I think that was a kind of sorry and make up, but I have decided if it comes up again, then I will be contacting my mum and asking if she can bail me out with a deposit and as guarantor for a place as I can't do this anymore.
