Have you ever had an event in your life similar to a soap storyline?

Thankfully I haven't had an event in my life similar to a soap storyline. Have you? What was it that happened?

Scrabbler · 11/05/13 - 21:23

Yes I found out that my sister was actually my mother.

[Deleted User] · 11/05/13 - 21:25

I got buried alive by my bird . We dont mention it now though .

priscilla · 11/05/13 - 21:27

Yes, I once slap someone downnn.
Oh and my sandwiches fell on the ground.

Yep, disgnosed bipolar not long after Stacey Slater. Actually found the EE storyline hugely helpful

Well, I have been married five times to three different people - that doesn't include the three wedding ceremonies that got aborted/interrupted for various reasons. I have seven kids ( that I know about) - five of which are from one or other of my wives - and including the two who I brought up believing were mine but weren't (one was accidently swapped at birth). I've been bankrupt three times, homeless twice, though I do eat out a lot and drink too much. I do have a car, but tend to prefer taxis. My brother is dead and my sister lives in France, but I never see or mention them at all. I was paraplegic for six months in 1986, and a gambling addict for three weeks in 2003. I was gay for nearly all of 2005.

All pretty boring really...

I drove a tram into a corner shop once.

I was in a school play once which was very poorly written and I totally over acted my part but later won an award.

feathers33 · 11/05/13 - 22:49

What happened to Moira and Cain a few weeks ago happened to me and my partner over Christmas. I'm an older woman too so it stung a bit to watch.
Never had any other story lines happen to me though.:)

[Deleted User] · 11/05/13 - 23:04

Yesss, family-related dramas. Definitely soap-worthy.

My motel burnt to the ground as I was preparing to sail on the QE2 dressed in blue chiffon

I once knew someone who got pregnant and lost the baby but got pregnant again and I'm not sure what happened to that baby, had some illness, had someone she knew commit suicide, then someone else she knew committed suicide, then her best friend left her baby in her custody (though she was only nineteen), then her other best friend (who was one of the people to commit suicide) also left a child who she seemed to spend a lot of time with, then her sister got pregnant at about 12 and had the baby, but then the baby died. She was also lactose intolerance but could eat/drink something suspiciously like Calpol which meant she could then drink milk/eat chocolate, she was also raped.

And if you think I'm making this up, I could probably list a handful of other things that 'happened' to her. Of course, it was all made up lies, but it literally lists off like a one person soap opera. I know, it's not very funny.

My post went missing once.

MarleyB · 12/05/13 - 04:29

i had a three-way just like there was in corrie, it went on for 9 months 67 days 10 hours and 15 minutes it was heartwrenching

SecretLifeoBees · 12/05/13 - 05:09

I once kept bubbly in the fridge....
