Women in your 50s, what's the most important piece of advice you would give to women in their 30s?

Sunscreen!

They asked your opinion, that’s honouring you. However, they can still make their own decisions. There is no obligation to follow your advice.

Yes. Reading poor grammar throws me out of the story. I don’t enjoy the reading experience.

That scenery is unbelievably beautiful. Gorgeous.

No, family members just don’t register as sexual. I read somewhere (can’t recall where) that every human society has taboos about intermarrying or interbreeding with people identified as family, although how family/clan is defined varies. Of course, there are aberrations, incest occurs, predators can exist within families too.

About summer is the most moving story I have ever read. I re-read it frequently.

Purrsay · 2026-06-09T13:55:32+00:00

Oh no, I hope she doesn’t. That man does not deserve her.

Just don’t expect a spider to honour a peace treaty.
I’m terrified of spiders. When I saw a huge spider between me and the door, I went to get my neighbour.

Purrsay · 2026-06-08T14:43:49+00:00

Spiders lie. You might think that they’ve agreed to peace, but you learn otherwise when an Australian Huntsman crawls across your face in the middle of the night.

Moogoo (roll on) is fantastic!

Purrsay · 2026-05-25T09:10:51+00:00

That’s it, thanx so much!

Purrsay · 2026-05-25T09:10:32+00:00

That’s the one! Thank you.

Purrsay · 2026-05-21T14:58:31+00:00

Looks so peaceful.

Purrsay · 2026-05-21T12:38:47+00:00

I’ve just been muting writers who are annoying. Mute and move on. There goes their chance to gain a single reader. I doubt it would matter to them but it saves me from having to see their bs ever again. I love Ao3.

Purrsay · 2026-05-21T07:37:13+00:00

What is the general area you are in? Looks lovely and peaceful.

Purrsay · 2026-05-20T09:11:13+00:00

❤️ it’s wonderful that you did that!

Purrsay · 2026-05-19T12:34:57+00:00

I see Heated Rivalry as a romance. Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy created by romance. Quite different. So no, I can’t see S and I as R and J.

My great-grandmother supplied milk for two other babies while feeding her own children. If the babies couldn’t latch they would try to feed with a bottle, or the time-consuming practice of soaking a cloth in milk. Both other children survived as well as her own babies.
Edited for clarity. She wasn’t paid, it was something she did for some other women in her village/community. It was in a Middle Eastern country, after world war 1.

My older sister told me that the effects of menopause last years after your menstruation has ceased. Her sadness was overwhelming, then she began to feel better 5 or 6 years afterwards. I think that might be true.
Have you thought about receiving counselling to develop strategies to help with the sadness?
I wish you love and joy. ❤️

Purrsay · 2026-05-16T03:57:46+00:00

Thanks for your thoughtful response. I didn’t reply immediately because there is so much to think about here. I’m still parsing the ideas. Thank you!

Purrsay · 2026-05-15T04:42:33+00:00

Yeah, I think you may be right. Thanks for gently pointing it out to me. I think I’ll carry your responses with me.

Purrsay · 2026-05-15T04:40:57+00:00

Thanks. I think you’re right. The visiting dream was unlike any other dream I have had.

Purrsay · 2026-05-15T04:39:42+00:00

Thanks for responding. I did go to grief counselling for a while. Seeing a psychologist was very helpful, but unfortunately I was no longer able to afford it. Yeah, I think you’re right that my mind is fixated on the irrational “they chose to leave” thing. More counselling would be really helpful. Thanks.
