When you spoke about this on TFTM, I felt physically angry for you. I would have been hard pushed not to kick him in his smug cunt.

Getting rid of toxic people in my life has been tough but hugely rewarding, I've not interacted with one of my sisters for over a year and a half now and it feels nice she no longer wields power over me.

I had a boss who prodded and jibed at me for years - I did eventually confront him and got short shrift from the higher bosses - my moment of reprieve came one night when I’d been out on the lash and on my journey home at around 2 am, I passed his house, turned back and stood outside shouting “(name), you’re a wanker! You fucking wanker!”

It made me feel much better.

Only sad thing is, he died a few years back and I never got chance to just hold out my hand and say “let bygones be bygones”.

Thanks for the brilliant content Sam and the latest episode with Richard Beard was excellent- I unfortunately passed my 11+ and went to an all boys grammar run by sadistic Christian brothers - some have since been convicted of sexual offences- although I escaped that side, they made my life a misery and it made my school days horrible, leaving me with zero confidence and not knowing how to talk to girls- social and emotional aspects of learning are more important than academia.
