We are on a committee together and he has not said the nicest things about me..not downright awful..just the usual thngs you say about someone after a breakup. I am trying my best to be mum about everything but I am wondering about my reputation on the committee as I have a leadership role. How can I handle this and maintain my dignity and the respect of the committee. He has missed a few meetings since the breakup...not sure why.

Hi,
It sounds like his reputation is well know by the sounds of it. I'm sure you're not the first person he's treated like this, so I wouldnt worry about it. Keep your head up and simply ignore him.
Nobody likes a cheating scumbag, and nobody is prepared to listen to their little fantasies about their jilted exes'.
Good luck.

Just be firm and calm and ask him to either be quiet or to be respectful or you will have him put off the committee. I would tell the rest of the committee what is going on and put them in the picture. so the next time he is there and he starts shouting his mouth off then you should have the backing of all around you. He will probably resign, which would be a good thing.
take care
xx

He has missed meetings because he is probably feeling like a lowly skunk and is probably terrified that you will expose him for the scum he is!! He doesn't want to look like a folol and he knows he could come out of this situation looking very bad indeed!
So you want to maintain your dignity. Don't badmouth him, spread rumours, appear bitter or angry. All you have to do when someone asks you what happened, is calmly tell them the truth. He is a cheat and you deserve better. You will sppear strong and dignified, don't stoop to his level.
