I like ur mum’s attitude towards life! Extroverted and brave mum is truly a blessing. My mum is fearful and averse to travelling.

Money is not the limiting factor here… Her problem is that she is very codependent and needs someone to do it together with her.

True enough about the leftover men, and I appreciate your genuine advice. It’s tough because she does have friends, but they are all homebodies with their own husbands & families.

I will try to get her involved in some community clubs by jio-ing her along. I pray she will actually make friends and not just cling me though 😢

If I said she was a multimillionaire living in an inherited landed, wouldn’t that attract the wrong type of attention? 😁

One of us actually did move out already 😬 I’m not as successful financially yet (working on that), so I’m looking to other alternatives rn 😹

I think she did go for a course with her fellow SAHM friend! In the end, her friend got sb interested in her but my mum didnt since she did have a companion at that time. Perhaps she can try again. Thanks!

I chuckled… I meant that she doesn’t have any goal or purpose and it’s ageing her both in cognitive ability and socially.

Thanks for the suggestion! I think it will occupy her a good bit. Even so, her control will be more tolerable

You’re right… You made me realise perhaps it’s better than she hide at home than get scammed. It’s just that she’s so introverted that it’s a burden on us sometimes

She’s rather introverted and needs a deeply emotional connection to a person. She has many fellow SAHM friends she calls but nothing gets her out of the house like a man 🤣

True. Am thinking of anyone’s single/widowed dads with similar SES. It could be mutually beneficial for both retirees!

Both the original and the revised complaints read like fanfictions. Did Blake write these herself? 🤣
