I've just had the best.news.ever. I'm beaming!!
I don't post about it much because I'm kind of embarrassed about it but since S the sad clown and I have lived in the same smurf village/apartment complex.
It is the only complex in the area that has all of the security and facilities I am after. He moved here to coerce me into moving in with him once the house was sold. He signed his lease during False R and spent weeks begging me to move in with him. I refused and signed my own lease shortly afterwards.
There are something like 15 low-rise buildings in the complex and his unit is about 100m (330 ft) away and overlooks mine (he is a few floors up, I'm on the ground floor).
For the last year I've kept my shades drawn at night and I've felt this ominous presence whenever I've looked out my windows. I've only used the pool/park a few times and I've never used the BBQ area because his balcony overlooks all of it. If I come home late at night (or early morning
) I go the long way because I don't want to even see his balcony let alone be see or be seen by him.
The payoff is that I haven't bumped into him once this entire year.
I was hoping he would move because I really don't want to.
Miss 5 told me they are getting bunk beds at daddy's new place. I think its a stupid idea given she'll need to climb down and back up again to do wees at night but I'm so freaking excited that he is finally moving that I could dance a jig.
I can finally enjoy this wonderful complex and all of its fabulous facilities. He will have no reason to be on my turf ever again except for the rare in-person handovers.
Bye bye douche, its been real. Don't come back now, y'hear!

Thanks all - I woke up this morning and yep, still beaming.
I guess you don't realise how yuck something really is until you realise you're going to be free of it. Kind of like that M, really.
I AM so having a party and you're all invited!
I may have reached a point where I'd piss on him if he was on fire.... eventually!!
