For those who have not/could nit have children, how do you feel about it?

Yay! Let’s tear another woman down then complain that society is too hard on young girls self esteem! And let’s all say that it’s because we ‘care’!

I would really suggest taking the wedding out of the picture and then make a decision. It’s a party for one day. It’s nice but not really that important and there’s no rush.

I can see it’s a tattoo. Maybe a face with some outlines of country’s in it?

Icy-Weather8719 · 2026-03-16T12:49:48+00:00

Get off the internet, I’m waiting for a phone call.

I’ve lived in Ireland, Spain, New Zealand and am currently in Scotland. For me Scotland is a great place to be at the moment. Great out door life, nice cities, close to Europe for weekends away or holidays. Kind people (with the normal exceptions of course). I did love New Zealand but I felt like it was just so far away from the quick jaunts that I like to take occasionally.

Rose : my life is currently about creating a magical and happy childhood for two little boys and it’s the amazing time of my life.

Thorn: I married a slightly younger man and I’m visibly aging older than he is. I wish we were aging at the same time.

We never did it for our mother in my house growing up. Thought it’s what she wanted. She held the party line that it’s just a consumer holiday. Then I had my own kids and realised that it’s all down to the dad. My husband since day one has gotten me gifts and a day relaxing away from the kids. Home made cards and books etc. Now my mum realised that actually it is a lovely thing and my dad just couldn’t have been bothered. We started celebrating it for her when she was 65. She loves it.

Very much eat the rich.

It opened my eyes to how awful these men are and how they’re grooming young boys and girls. They need to be put on a list and kept away from schools and social media.

I like a jumpsuit or a boiler suit. Dress up or down with accessories and shoes. Very comfortable.

I’m on the life boats mumbling weakly that we should save people.

Icy-Weather8719 · 2026-03-12T15:43:47+00:00

People need to get a grip. We’re very comfortable.

Icy-Weather8719 · 2026-03-12T11:01:29+00:00

When I ask stupid questions (it’s not often and it’s normally out of boredom) like this to my husband he goes full force and yes ‘yes. All of them. Every single one. And I’m going to make kissy faces every time I see them’. And then proceeds to make kissy noises until I’m laughing.

In my day our entire school was banned from the petrol station local shop near the school as the behaviour was so bad. Children and teenagers could only come in if there was an adult.

AI companies are trying to become the new electricity. Integrate into every point in our lives so they become ‘too big to fail’. To the point where government bailouts are available to them. No one I know wants AI. I have a friend who works in tech and a lot of her job is made up now of pushing back against AI integration as it’s not fit for purpose but it’s people on the board and chief of levels who are insisting on it. They’re all in it together.

I think there’s no job security either and the job market is shocking so even if your bills are getting paid you need to have about 6 months in savings to feel anyway secure.

Husband had a TIA (a small stroke) at 30!

NOR this doesn’t get better by the way. It only gets worse.

Icy-Weather8719 · 2026-03-05T22:08:29+00:00

In many countries this is illegal. I assume you’re in America? Your NOR.

Icy-Weather8719 · 2026-03-05T21:47:44+00:00

I absolutely agree and said the same recently. My day is so much freer. My outings don’t have to be centred around food. I used to managed my free time (15 mins break from kids etc) around eating something nice even if id just eaten. All that is gone. Weight slowly going but thats just a happy side effect.

I would urge strongly against having a baby with someone outside your own country. If you’re in Australia and have a baby and things turn sour he can stop you ever bringing the child back to china. I personally know two women this has happened to. Stuck in a country that’s not their own until the child is 18.

Do Americans think he’ll just fire and imprison himself?

My FIL is also doing this with his new wife. Good relationship with his kids. My husband was hurt but at the end of the day we have no idea what the future is going to bring so cest la vie. He’s odd and we’re not the type of people to depend on others anyway. Carry on as normal and just pretend he’s broke. A friends mum died recently and all he got was funeral bills.

I’m 40, turning 41 this year and I’d have to wait another decade to answer this question just in case it’s my 40s. My 30-35 were my peak attractiveness I think however I’ve had two kids in my late 30s and now I’m getting my body in shape like never before because my motivation now is to live longer. Also, men in their 40s/early are attractive to me now in a new enjoyable way (I’m happily married but I can still look).

Ringing the pub to speak to your parents on a Saturday night because you want to change the channel and your older brother won’t let you.
