Its really wonderfull (37)

As I said, each to their own.

And even when I was a "younger lady" I didn't like jewellery on guys.

As I said at work its my choice

And younger shiela's is just a by product not the main reason.

And its really about me doing what I like .
Finally stopped doing what others think is correct for me . But what I think is correct for me !!Tired of everyone knowing whats best for me !!

Oh if need be I can sell the bling ........ but I don't want to !!

Of course it's your choice.

It's also my choice to prefer guys who choose not to wear jewellery.

That's what each to their own means.

NotAB, having grown up in the early 70s where a lot of bling was part of being in the 'cool scene,' and did wear the necklaces and the flower power gear, no I do not wear these days anything but the signet ring my Mum gave me.

Unfortunately, it does happen to be on the "married" finger and may have some reason to why I am still single. Been told by some ladies that I should not wear it there.

I do have a preference for having my hair a bit longer than most people over the last 30 years. I did have to put up with a lot of crap on the Sydney social scene because of this.

"Oh, you live in the Sydney Western suburbs. You have long hair. You must ride a Harley?"...."No, you moron, just because I live in the Western Suburbs and have long hair does not mean I have tatts and a Harley."

People are too predudicial about appearances. Why can't people accept us the way we are?

It's a choice, some guys prefer blondes or brunettes....women that wear heels....skirts rather than trousers.

Some guys would rather date a female that doesn't wear a lot of make up, others like "dolly birds".

I prefer a guy without bling. That's not being prejudicial, it's personal preference.

Luckily there are also women who couldn't give a toss whether a guy jangles more than they do or not. :)

I wasn't having a go at you not a blonde .
As you say each their own!!

Me I feel like I've been in prison for 21 years and my divorce was my full pardon!!
I was under so much control even the ex mother in law would give me lectures of using pepper on my food !!
And yet apart from the pepper I couldn't see what was going on!!

Now I'm free I'm enjoying myself . Hell I was never allowed to go out for coffee to quote her "waste of money you have coffee at home". First thing I did was go out for coffee (given up coffee now just drink Tea lol still go out for it }
Hell I told a co worker I go out for breaky Saturdays her reply "what a waste of money you can have that home " .
That's what I put up with for so long !!

I'm free doing what I want
And I don't jingle NAB but I sure as hell SHINE baby !!!

So why did you put up with it for so long and not stand up for yourself?

If it was for an easy life then that was also your choice wasn't it?

I wish you all the best with your new found freedom.

And I can still eat VEGO if I want as well hey serene !!

Guess with the bling I'm making a statement of HEY LOOK AT ME!!

I don't want to go through my entire life as unseen !!
