Have A Good Old Moan....

haha whoopsie! A moan is a moan nontheless! My parents were 13 years apart though... although I can't say they're still happily married and love was there all along yadda yadda so that was no help at all really 😛

Some sad moans here, hope everything gets better for everyone soon :

I firmly believe age is irrelevant when it comes to friendships/relationships. My ex-husband was 10 years older than me, we're divorced now but that had nothing to do with the age gap and everything to do with him being a nob 😛

My fiancé is 14 years my senior and I genuinely could not be happier.

That said, here's my moan -- my baby (age 7, but still my baby) has a cyst in his eye 🙁 it looks really sore, he has antibiotic ointment but the GP said if it doesn't clear in a couple of days he may need to go to hospital to have it drained  😮

I don't think age matters when you are older, but when you're younger I think it's a biggggg deal

I've got housemaid's knee! I think I prefer its proper name though - prepatellar bursitis - coz it doesn't sound quite so silly.

(It's an inflammation of the fluid sac surrounding the kneecap)

It does kinda matter though, because I'm pretty sure my dad would rip my head off haha :') I'm pretty sure I'm only gonna see the guy 2 more times in my life though, so I don't really care - some flirting is definitely okay!:'3

Though it's still annoying, this could work pretty well if he were younger!

I'm 99% sure your dad would rip the guys head off first haha 🙂

oh yeah, if a 29 year old even looked at my daughter when she's 15, I'd kill!

I'm all for age gaps when you're older (my husband is 8 years older than me) but it's too creepy when you're a teen

Haha, Meeshy, my dad is absolutely useless - there was a guy actually touching my boobs once and he must have been in his 40s, and my dad did absolutely nothing!o.o
Glitter, I'd probably do the same though - creepy guys are an absolute no-go!

But yeah, I was like "Daaamn, if I was 20, this could be pretty cool!" and then I decided to stick with boys my age, even though nobody seems interested anyway lol

ahh they'll be interested one day!

My moan is that my gran passed away on thurs (some of you know) so thats crap but she's at peace now. But everything else seems to be going wrong all at once, money has been a real issue, and our car failed its MOT, and now its all fixed up but for some reason we're having trouble getting our tax for it, they keep saying they need extra info. So that means we've had to put the car as 'off the road' for now, so we've got no shopping in. OH asked his dad to pop round with some washing tablets so I can wash dylans uniform as he had lots of accidents today - and he's not turned up 🙁 he was meant to be here at 6ish, and I reckon they've probably gone off to bed now, so I'm screwed :/ Dyl has NO uniform for tomorrow, and OH is working til 10pm when the shops are shut!

I didn't mean to speak out of turn, apologies if it came across that way. I was 15 when I met my ex and he was 24 and a big bit. It did cause a bit of a rumpus in my family but I was young and thought I knew everything. If I could offer my 15 year old self some advice, I would but that's more about choosing the wrong man rather than an older man. Good ole hindsight!

Naomi, does the guy know your 16? he may think your older. IMO most 29yr old guys wouldnt consider *dateing* someone so young, mainly because of peer pressure from mates

I don't think that big age gaps have to be a problem at all (case in point: I'm 21, my boyfriend is almost 35), but they definitely seem "worse" when you're younger. My mum was less than happy about me seeing a 20-year-old when I was 16, but she couldn't care less about the age gap in my current relationship. I think that sharing common interests and life goals is what cements a relationship, not proximity in age, which is a pretty arbitrary factor.

Glitter - I'm really sorry to hear about your gran, and the fact that rubbish things all seem to happen at once... I hope things look up for you soon!

Sorry to hear about your gran Glitter.

A bit of a hair rant, whilst I was bleach bathing my hair a workmate said it was the nicest my hair had been (it was rather patchy and stuff) which I found insulting anyway and this weekend I dyed my hair blue velvet and go into work and she goes "I preferred the other colour"....

He knows I'm 16, so it's all good - my dad hardly leaves my side at concerts anyway 🙂

Thanks for letting me vent here. Closer friends always have something nasty to say about relationship troubles. It's nice to not be so judged.

I finally spoke to his mum and told her a whole lot of the crazy story. Just how worrisome his behavior has been, what I've had to deal with, and gave an apology to her about the bad, uncharacteristic stuff that I've done.

Thankfully, she was sympathetic and understood that I want the best for him whilst protecting myself (getting the police involved in the uhaul issue). And she said the truck has been returned. I wish that was a good vibration, but the truck isn't back in the system yet.

And worse, he has been missing since saturday night. All this time, I thought he was with his family. I'm worried and frightened for him, as is his whole family. I'm filing a missing persons report tomorrow.
