    I'm 33. My (soon-to-be-ex) boyfriend is going to break up with me because he's 30 and his parents and he all think there's a higher risk of pregnancy related problems as I'm nearing 35. We have been dating for 7 months and he has never had such doubt before. Only now does he realise that he doesn't want to marry a woman older than him. What a joke. I feel as if I'm cheated. 😤
    The boy's a fool!

    My wife is older than me and that situation is not unusual. I appreciate that there maybe cultural differences.

    He needs to grow a pair, as some say over here, and decide what is important to him.

    You sound a lovely person Jessie and it is his loss not yours.
    Thank you. Actually it's not really that unusual here either. It's his parents' problem. He's got a fairly low salary and earns much less than his mother (and probably his father too). They have the final say on big things for him. I do know he is the wrong man for me (and for any other women too). It's just a bit hard for me to end this relationship right now. I'm a very loving person but sadly this has made me become the one that ends up getting hurt.
    Just 3 words, lovely Jessie....

    He's not worthy. 
    Thank you dear Jean. I will end this relationship soon, no matter what he will say or how he will try to explain to me.

    During a Zoom call last week, someone asked about the two posters on the wall behind me, Sex Pistols and Stone Roses ... he had never heard of them!

    Philistines  ;)

    And I know the next post will be, what is a Zoom call?

    And then the arrival of continental quilts. 

    And then continental quilts being renamed as duvets.

    Young and naive we looked on the map to see where Tonbridge was and thought getting a Lewis coach from Greenwich would be a good idea. Took fcking ages, going through village after village

    I didn’t watch.....as I clearly remember how shite he was. 

    I recall he made another act out of the same broken 🎤 routine by changing it into a bloke talking behind a car window going up and down.

    You know you are getting older when you start mixing up older and younger. ☹️
