neighbour from hell

Well, I gave her notice and she is due to move out next Thursday.

Now I just got a really nasty email from her and also an equally nasty email from one of our mutual friends. I suppose it's no surprise really but it's still really upsetting that none of them have bothered to ask my version of events and they have just bought her lies.

Now I'm at work, bawling and just embarrased the IT guy that came to talk to me

Oh you poor thing! (((HUGS)))

She sounds like a right piece of work and all you can do is say to yourself that her opinion does not matter to you, nor does the opinion of anyone silly enough to believe her without talking to you also.

Being one of the few people here who has met you, I can say with great certainty that you are a lovely and caring person and that this woman is a silly wench for ruining the oppertunity to have the support and friendship of such a wonderful person when she has her baby and is struggling as we all do the first time.

But you have done all that you can and honestly, if she stayed it would be a source of constant stress and friction for you.

Is your mil moving in?

It really sucks that it had to come to this for you, but as Claire said, it didn't sound like you had any other option.
She was taking advantage of your friendship and was being selfish by not respecting the agreement you had when you moved in together.
Good on you for doing what's right for your family and don't for a second feel bad about it. You've been completely reasonable by the sounds of things and she only has herself to blame.

Oh, you guys are so sweet. Made me cry again, better hide incase the poor IT guy comes back.
