The bloke that went nuts over the price of fish at Wimbledon.

 

[Shell]

He was treated the exact same as a kid apparently. So jesus no shit sherlock it continues.

And the mum just stood by and did nothing.

 

[Shell]

Its horrific what I read in the paper today- apparently got the belt out whenever she lost and laid into her back with it almost breaking the skin.

 

[Kram]

The sport is infamous for nutjob parents like swimming.

Didn't Lleyton Hewitt's mum used to make him walk all the way home if he lost lol.

 

[Shell]

He deserves it but

 

[Shell]

jks.

 

[Shell]

Yeah that whole family was weird af- especially the early days and the mum.

So I need some advice OTers. (dont really want to post this on GD and them knowing all my business).

Anyway- so recently been seriously considering buying with my ex. (yes i know, ridiculous, but its true- we're friends and i do trust him).

So I'm ready to go- got my deposit (he has too- the same amount)- has seen the bank and am getting to the "ok ready to seriously look and make offers" kind of stage.

Problem is. Ex is nowhere to be seen. I keep texting him to come up and see me to talk. But he's busy.

He goes: "one day next week?"
Me: "Im working" (like hello- der)

He is busy every night next week + then going interstate.

I'm ready to pull the plug seriously. Q. is how scary will this be to buy something alone. I will definitely need a housemate to help with $$$.

 

[Shell]

And also how do i tell him Ive changed me mind without pissing him off or destroying the friendship.

 

[Shell]

It actually pisses me off tho. How the **** can you be busy every night of the week, when we have massive decisions and shit to sort out. He has finished exam and uni.


Nah **** him.

 

[GeelongFTW]

Get your dad to sort him out.

 

[Deep]

[Shell]

Good choice

 

[Deep]

I dont need to defend/explain myself in that regard.

But yeah its just recently he's ****ing pissing me off

If he had finished his engineering degree earlier he could have bought his own house. With blackjack. And hookers.

 

[Shell]

And i honestly do not want to live alone. I know me- and I'd get incredibly lonely. Having said that, I am happy enough in my own company- its not like me and my flatmate hang out 24/7- actually its pretty much the exact opposite.

And sharing a mortgage >>>> one on my own. I actually cannot afford it on my own.

Hes doing his masters

Yup racking up more HECS debt, smart.

Lol i dont read enough of the main board to make an informed opinion tbh.


Still... go right ahead

 

[Shell]

Btw- just wanted to take back those comments I said re. Tennis Australia and how they were a "disgrace". Apparently people within the sport did try to help, including going to the police but due to the fact people "involved were uncooperative" nothing could be done at the time.

Just ****ing terrible situation.

What happened give a detailed explanation

Jelena Dokic- was abused regularly by her father. Both physical and mental. She's come out with the whole story now, I was bagging tennis Oz for not doing anything.

 

[Shell]

I cant believe the a hole left her at Wimbledon. She's 17, and he just tells her to **** off because she lost the semi final.

At 17.

The guy comes from a different planet/time obviously. And is mental.
