1 AnswerOther - Destinations1 decade agohow do I stop my teenager from stealing from me?
My 15 yr old daughter is stealing money from me. Only yesterday, my eldest daughter had £10 go missing out of her purse. I asked my youngest if she knew anything about it but she swore blind she didnt. After 3 hrs of screaming and shouting between the 2 girls, the youngest finally admitted to it. Im at my wits end because I dont know what to do to stop it. Iv started by purchasing a lock up box which is where we put money at night time.

8 AnswersAtlanta1 decade agocan i give out ex b/fs mums details to debt collectors?
My ex partner has left my home after 5 yrs and i started to get debt letters through my door. I was unaware of these problems until he left.
Each time i get a letter i call them to tell them he no longer lives here.
I have given them his mums number and address as she is his next of kin and i have no idea where he is.
She has threatened me with legal action if i carry on giving her information out but i have no choice as i don't know where he is and she wont tell me.
Can she take legal action or is this just a threat?
4 AnswersPersonal Finance1 decade agowhat charges could i bring against a con man?
For 10 week iv been chatting to a lovely guy on line. We progressed to phone chat and things had gone from good to fantastic. He is 26 and very good looking with a good job and own home. Everything you could want in a guy.
He was coming up to visit me yesterday but didnt appear. I was so worried something had happened to him as he wasnt answering ym calls or texts. I had his address and today went to his house to make sure he was ok. An old man answered the door claiming to have no idea who i was or talking about. After speaking to this guy, i realised it was the same voice as my phone buddy. I asked a few neighbours about the car in the drive as i had seen pictures of it and it belonged to the old guy.
I have well and truely been conned by him and i want to do something about it. If he can do this to me a 36 yr old then he can do it to younger girls.
Any ideas how to go about calling police with such a situation

2 AnswersWords & Wordplay1 decade agodo i give my ex another chance?
I have recently kicked my ex out after 5 yrs of hell. Last weekend he came to me in tears saying he was so sorry, he will never hurt me again, he loves me and wants to spend the rest of his life with. This is all iv ever wanted to hear from him so i melted and gave him another chance. He hasnt moved back in yet as we wanted to take it slow.
This week he invited me to cinema and i jumped at the chance. I got hom from work, showered and got dressed up. I waited and waited for him but he didnt turn up. He is saying that we didnt make definate arrangements so he didnt think i wanted to go.
He is sorry again for upsetting me so i am now in a dilema.
Do i accept his appology and carry on as before or kick him to the curb for good.
I love him so much and cant carry on feeling this way but if i tell him to go, id get over it.
8 AnswersMarriage & Divorce1 decade agoWorried about CRB check?
I finally got my CRB check back after 10 week. When i looked at it, i expected on caution to be on it. Instead, there was 3 convictions from almost 20 yrs ago which were shoplifting when i was 14. As i didn't declare them on my application form for new work i am worried that they will now think i was trying to hide something when in fact i was told i ddon't have to declare them. If i ddon't have to declare them, why do they appear on the CRB?

7 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agohow to end a tenancy agreement early?
I have been living with my B/F for 16 month now in a rented property. The agreement was 12 month so after that time we signed another 12 month. Unfortunately, we have Split up and now I wish to leave the property. My ex has threatened to take me to court if I dont see the tenancy out or I don't pay half the rent for the rest of the time. There is another 8 month left but I really cant stay under the same roof as him as he is verbally abusive towards my children now (they ar not his). Is there any one who can advise me on this.
3 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoSuspected mid-life crisis?
Im worried about my soon to be 44yr old b/f. Last night he bought alcohol. Most off you will think "whats so wrong with that". He hasn't drank alcohol in 4 years. Neither of us drink but for some reason he came home from work with 4 bottles of WKD and drank 3 of them. Then he watched Notting Hill with me and laughed all the way through it which is abnormal as he refuses to watch anythting unless its James Bond. He then told me that hedoesn'tt want to get old & boring and would like to go out to a club. He was listening to club dance music over the weekend too.
Im scared that this is a spiral to a break up as once he starts going out, its doomed.

6 AnswersUnited Kingdom1 decade agoIs there anyone out there that thinks im over reacting?
I saw lastnight on facebook, a posting by my b/f to another woman. It said he was sending a flirt and a second one was a cuddle. I was imediatly hurt and upset. I posted a comment in reply to it saying "its nice to see my b/f flirting and cuddling other women". Of course he saw this posting and went into a rant.
One year, I found out he had called a women late at night while I was visiting my parents. He claims he was lonely and bored. He is always shut away in his office playing WOW but claims he is working. He always turns his mob off as soon as he walks in the house and it has a lock code on. I have very few reasons to trust him. I feel stuck in a relationship that is going nowhere as I dont get along with his family. Am I over reaction about the facebook and phone call thing? Do men do this kind of thing and think that theres nothing wrong with it?
19 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoB/F always shut away playing world of warcraft?
My B/F comes home from work and goes to his office to play computer games. He says hes playing world of warcraft. I cant see what the attraction is in this silly game & am quite hurt that he would rather shut himself away than spend time with me.
Can someone explain what the attraction is and is it possible to use it as a chat line?
10 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoB/F has unfair bank charges?
My b/f put credit on his phone via tesco online. He is with Tesco mobile. They took the payment then tried to take it again which left him overdrawn. His bank have now charged him £30 for being overdrawn and will not refund it. He called Tesco to complain but they said its not their fault as he should have money in his account.
Do you think it is up to Tesco to pay the £30 or the bank?
3 AnswersPersonal Finance1 decade agoworried about CRB check?
I am slightly worried about my CRB check. 2 year ago there was an incident where i hit my 15yr old daughter. I do not regret my actions as she was out of control. However, she reported me to the police which ended up with me being issued a caution for common assault. I have recently been offered an admin position at a children's hospital and although I have declared the caution, i am still worried they will turn me down due to the nature of it. Again, I did tell the person who held interviews and she seemed not to worry about it.
The thing im worried about the most is that during the caution, i was told i would not be able to work with children. This is something I didn't tell the interviewer. As it is admin work im hoping it will not be relevant. I am not a violent person and have never before or since hit any of my children.
