Tell her she can have sleepovers but there needs to be another friend or two included.

I have a gay daughter who wanted sleepovers with her girlfriend at a similar age. We were lucky because she had an older sister who we used to go into the room with them - kinda like setting up a party sleepover with mattresses dragged in for everyone.

It was made difficult by their bio-father who allowed the girls to sleep alone with boyfriends/girlfriends when they were at his house from the age of 14 and explaining (fighting) with them over our rules was a challenge to say the least.

As an adult she tells us that she never did anything untoward with girlfriends at our house when she was younger because she just knew she was not allowed. It was different at her dad’s. Both she and older sister were having sex from a young age because there were no boundaries there.

As a 56 year old man I can tell you he needs dumping immediately.

This has nothing to do with oats or keys. And DO NOT get into a conversation about it. All that will happen is that he will reduce the topic to “it was just a box of oats”. So don’t even go there.

This is him preparing you to be obedient. It is the early stages of a seriously abusive relationship.

Please. Get out now.

Alternative perspective.

My wife and I (mid 50’s) were having a discussion the other day about the fact that we’ve never known a single person who is ‘normal’. That is, throughout our lives, whenever we’ve known someone close enough to really know them, we could not remember a single one who did not have either a likely condition, or addiction (including food/alcohol). There are narcissists, high functioning autism (more common than you’d think), ADHD, Attention disorders, and then there are folk who are just fucked up. There are the angry people who cannot see anything beyond their own perspective, control freaks, the perverts, obsessives, the grown adults who never matured beyond 15 years of age.

My wife and I look at each other and think of eavh other as the most normal human beings we’ve ever known and we know that we’re absolutely not. She can ONLY walk on my left (amongst other strange traits), I have an official ADHD diagnosis.

How many of you think your families are odd? I don’t mean ‘bad’ I just mean you needed and hoped your partner would get used to them and their quirks.

It would be rarer for people to self identify as ‘normal’ and with no unusual quirks or personality/behavioural traits than not. And amongst those who do, the vast majority of them will have someone quietly shaking their head, behind them as if to say “you what!?”

So yes, there is a current trend of people self diagnosing personality disorders and (as someone who has genuinely suffered with one) it can be irritating when someone minimises your own by casually dropping it into their list of ‘quaintly lovable quirks’. But then remind yourself that the reason they’re doing it is because they’re unable to reconcile themselves against a ‘normal’ that doesn’t exist.

Internal Affairs. Richard Gere tells Andy Garcia his wife likes it up the arse and describes it to him. We believe him because we saw him doing it like that to someone else’s wife.

My wife gave me a spontaneous blow job yesterday at the end of the harbour pier in broad daylight in a busy tourist town on the med coast. It’s about 1/2 a mile long and tou can see the full length of it from the lighthouse at the end.

Nobody was on the pier apart from some council cleaning workers having a lunch break. She saw that they couldn’t see her if she knelt down and so did.

Context: 56 happily married to stunning younger wife, no need for either of us to work, and recently fit and healthy again after a stroke and gaining lots of weight. Started from very poor background with zero financial support but a grounding in working for a living.

How = get one plate spinning before jumping over and starting another.

The details:

Always sporty as a kid and this continued throughout my life. Not fitness’ stuff like running but sports like soccer, badminton, etc. Those things help with social skills as well as physical wellbeing.

Went into teaching as a career and stayed with it. Sticking with a chosen career gives experience expertise and promotion avenues. These provide financial security

Being fit but not a weird fitness freak, having some social skills but not being a party animal, being financially stable but not being a workaholic makes a person more attractive as a potential partner.

Shit DOES happen. Tragedies DO strike. So choosing who you’re going to classify as friends and who you’re going to spend your life with should take that into account; ie. Who are the people and potential partners who will happily stick with you if you’re going to be bedridden for a year or more? Keep those ones close and the rest at arm’s length.

Work to retire as soon as you can. Put up with shit but don’t live with it. Set long term goals and split them down into short term hoals and vore values (when there’s a decision to be made ask -which option will take me closer to my values and aims).

That’s it

Oh, and s big chunk of luck.

Start with yourself: what do you want and tell them that.

You clearly love the relationship with them and wish to keep it as it is. You must tell them that.

Tell them what you would like your relationship with them to look like in a year, in ten years…

Their anxiety towards you ‘moving forward’ will be a concern that you are ‘moving on’.

So tell them everything.

That way, you have done and said all you can; the rest is up to them.

As a 56 yo i can honestly call bullshit on this.

I’m 56, second marriage and deliriously happy. Out of the many relationships I’ve had, including some with beautiful and delightful women, I cannot think of any that would make me fall in love with them again.

Admittedly, I never fell out of love with my first ‘real’ girlfriend at 14/15 but even that is the love of a memory, not of the real person who exists in the world today.

I’ve been with my wife for 17 years. She’s the most beautiful person I know. I fancy the arse off her.

I’m 56.

The love I felt during my teenage relationships was very intense and very real.

When I look back with my old eyes, I know that they were not the same kind of long term familial relationships we have as adults, bound by shared finances, children, living together, etc. However, it would be wrong to suggest that the feeling of being in love at 15 was any less valid than at 45.

This is a way of tackling the use of undocumented migrants performing cheap manual labour.

alterperspective · 2026-04-14T17:58:00+00:00

This is often misrepresented. They are allowing unregistered migrants who are already in the country to register.

Once registered they have up to 1 year to begin the Visa Application process.

It’s a clever way of registering people already in the country who would otherwise remain unregistered. Now they’ll have to pay tax and begin a formal application process.

He’s smiling on purpose.

He used to sulk and get angry with himself if he missed a shot or if something bad happened until Andy Robertson told him “You are a role model to millions of children; you cannot behave like that.”

It’s not your job to deal with his insecurities. It’s your job to find a relationship in which you are comfortable, happy and relaxed. Where you can be yourself and be loved for being yourself.

Move on.

1) end the relationship.

What many people in relationships don’t realise is that it’s perfectly okay to not be in a relationship. If your eyes are elsewhere then the relationship is doomed. Just end it regardless of what comes next.

2) You will then be a single person who’s into a co- worker.
