KNenagh: My parents had massive problems with their parents interfering. I give them both 10 out of 10 for patience, I wouldn't have had theirs.

They learned from it and didn't interfere with us - and tried to tell my exes father to keep out of it as well.

2 people have to stick together and stick to their guts, but I know a lot of people who let their parents treat their partners like dort and don't interfere. That's not right.

Sorry to hear that. My mum talked with us how she wants to handle things in case she gets severely ill. Looking after a family member hopefully doesn't mean the end of all life for someone - something my mum doesn't want to happen.

Did you join clubs who give you the chance to socialise and get out and about?

Sometimes laughing is better than crying. hug

Hey Buddy..similar tale but on the good side my mother was always there even though she knew all was not my fault but she didnt take sides just offered advice now all she wants is for me to be happy.
Bit hard like you okay we joke and laugh on here but something is missing even if we do attend the other outside functions... Have a drink on me and be safe..wine hug

If your loved ones (friends/family) were to pick a suitor for you, would they choose the same type as you choose yourself, or a totally different type?
Remember, these are the people who love you, and know you, best.
And have your best interests at heart.


Never had that experience; never knew anyone that even brought that up. Far too late now.

Hell , can you imagine my disappointment on discovering that your thread wasn't about Maguire & Paterson Molly moping

Though they've made quite a match grin

Matchmaking , it wouldn't be for me really , though I wouldn't turn my back on somebody with whom I thought I may have a connection/and or found physically attractive . I'd prefer , if it's to happen to be solely responsible for having found the one who lights my fire .

By the way , I've not read through the previous posts so if my prose coincides with that of somebody here I am not responsible snooty grin

well my family would probably choose a similar kind of person, yes. Someone quite different than the first (ex husband).

but with matchmaking there is no guarantee that it would mean anything. There are lots of people who match a certain personality but I am not going to be interested in all of them lol or vice versa

Unfortunately, I was at the time, too young, too stupid and too arrogant to ugly comprehend what I had as a chance to possibly be happy for life and in love. I wanted to run off and join the Foreign Legion and play Beau Geste. Of the mistakes we make when young and stupid; far worse that when you are old and stupid!laugh But I’ve regretted not going /taking that road , so long ago...
