Meaplus3 Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Boy did I have myself a real good laugh last night! For those of you who are not familar with my story, I wound up in a long ea with mm neighbor. The ea is long over, theres no friendship and I am 100% over this man! Now to last night! MM's children still spend lot's of time at my house, and that's just fine. MM's duaghter come's over to play with my kid's. The other day was my birthday, so shes bring's me a little gift! It's a computer printed note covered with red heart's. The note read's 'Happy Birthday." Congrat's. you have a free art day with Emily(that's mm's daughter) just call to arrange the date! Now if this in not the most pathetic attempt to get my attention I don't know what is! He probably expects' that I will call and that I will take this as some cute little thing he has done! Well little does he know, I think's it a riot! :laugh:I will not be calling his house to arrange a date. I will speak to Emily when she is over at my house and if she would like to do an art project with me, well that's great we can do it at my house! This whole little thing just shows me mm's true character and it's not the kind of character that I deserve, I am worth so much more than that. I really like my life alot better without all the drama! Just wanted to share. Thank's. AP:)
Lyssa Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Good for you, AP - just let Emily know that she can always have a date with you at YOUR house!
Author Meaplus3 Posted January 14, 2008 Author Posted January 14, 2008 Good for you, AP - just let Emily know that she can always have a date with you at YOUR house! LOL! Yes my house! Did mm think I was really going to come over? AP:)
OWoman Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Congrat's. you have a free art day with Emily(that's mm's daughter) just call to arrange the date! I don't know how old Emily is, but pimping out your kids for your own purposes is pretty low! I'm sure Emily would enjoy the art date with you AP, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't her idea! Poor kid - bet she doesn't even realise how her daddy is using her.

You know what too, his wife was home at the time. I wonder what she made of the flyer? I'm mean come on now if my H did that and sent via on of my kid's to the woman across the street, I would wonder a little bit, and I not right to think that?? AP:)
Author Meaplus3 Posted January 14, 2008 Author Posted January 14, 2008 This is more about your good character, than his bad. Thank's for saying that Cobra! AP:D
JamesM Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 I have a question...how do you know that the MM is behind all of this? Did Emily say he was or are you assuming he is? Or is there another clue? I am not saying either way, but I could not tell from your post.

Or is there another clue? I am not saying either way, but I could not tell from your post. Because it read Happy Birthday Congrat's YOU have an art date with Emily. Now if Emily had written it it would have read IMOP more like We have an art date meaning Emily and myself. Get it? Plus the heart's James?? This is just mm's style! Im suprised he did not spray his colonge on the paper, lol! AP:)
JamesM Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 But you can ignore that it might be from him, right? And did it say that it was expected to be at her house? You can play "ignorant" and assume that she wrote it, and that you figured it could be wherever, and let her know whenever she wants, you will have the stuff ready at your house. Tell her you think she had a great idea, and see what her reaction is. Don't let him put her in between. If she appears that she is not really interested, then ask her what she would prefer. It sounds like he/she thinks this is something that you would like. Is the idea of spending time with Emily doing artwork something YOU would enjoy, or is this another clue that I should have caught? And why art? Fascinating look inside the head of someone...but who?

And why art? Why art? Because I have an Art Ed Degree! I have done Art many time's with Emily at my house! MM know's that I love doing art with Emily and yes Emily enjoy's it too! Also mm know's how perceptive I am and just how I would take this note, well at least when I had it bad for him! I think he was trying to get my attention, he probably nee'ds an ego boost again! Well he's not going to get one from me! also think about this for a minute! Wouldn't it be sort of rude if the intent was to do a project at my house? What kind of gift is that? I'd have to do all the work. So I think It was for me to go over there and Emily who's 10 would have the project in mind. I will just Emily when she's over next! AP:)
SeraBella Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 I would assume it was the MM, too, because, well, a child just doesn't give "art dates" out. Children ask if they can do art with you. They may invite you over, but it's not in a birthday card. Rarely do you hear a child say "congrats" and rarely do children realize that time is a gift. Most children I know feel you have to give something for it to be a gift..as in an item of material value. So they would MAKE something for you that they are proud of, not offer you the opportunity to make something with them. An adult is 100% behind it. And I doubt a woman would say that. Mothers generally encourage their children to make things, not offer up dates to come over. Mothers appreciate time. And, I would think, most mothers would offer to take your child away from you for an art day as a gift to give you some alone time, rather than give their child to you for a gift. (Does that make sense the way I said it?) What a jerk.

I just shared this whole thing becuase it just prove's what a jerk mm really is,and I thought it was sort of funny that he would think I would take it as something so cute! Nope, not any more!! AP:)
Gwyneth Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 I think it's cute she gave you a gift, but the poor kid is being used as a tool by her father--how pathetic on his part. What a shame parents (and I usually hear of men doing this) use children as a tool to attract or get the attention of a woman. Good for you seeing right through this!
