Upset- how would they find my address?

[vampiress88]

When I moved house in February I didn’t want anything to do with my mother.

She made a scene on my old street so I never gave her my address.

Today my youngest gets a birthday card with a letter in it for me from my mother.

Says she doesn’t know what she did wrong even though we have had the same conversation for years.

I did not want her to have my address. I don’t want her to know where we live and now she does and this has really upset me.

The only person who has my address is my paternal gran, the same one I share with one sister. She has said she wouldn’t give that information to anyone else. It is possible that my sister could have looked in her address book.

I don’t want her knowing where I lived. I don’t want to have to worry that she will turn up at the door.

My address isn’t in the phone book or anything, i thought I had been careful.

How the hell has she got my address

Electoral register?
Possibly your gran but these days there are loads of ways of finding out where somebody lives

Is the relationship irretrievably broken down? You always come over as someone in need of a Mum, x

I don’t disagree I do need a mum. Unfortunately I need the mother my sisters got not the one I did

You can pay to get that?

How is it allowed to give out that kind of information?

I’m only on that stupid thing cos I have to be.

It should be private information.

It has really bothered me, I can feel the anxiety creeping in

If you have a car, if they have your reg plate they can pay dvla a fee (£2.00 I think it is) for your details.

Is she trying to patch things up? Don't get anxious it's not worth it!

[dubletrub]

Write her a letter, put down all the things you think are wrong between you and explain why you don’t want to see her. If it is written down she may take it onboard.

Eg 192.com - we used it this year when my Father died to find address of family and his friends to let them know when all I had was a name and geographic region.

I am sure their are numerous others ways of finding address easily and legally
