You get one hour in a room with a person of your choice. Who do you choose and what do you do?

[WinterDream]

This is a scenario I think of sometimes: you get one hour in a sealed room with a person of your choice. You can do anything you want for that time and neither of you can ever disclose what you did/spoke about to anyone else.

Who do you take and how do you spend the time? I can't quite decide - I'm guessing a lot of people might use it as a hall pass or to confront someone they've always wanted to confront, though I suppose it could get a bit tense to do the latter!

My DM, she died unexpectedly whilst abroad so I never got chance to say goodbye or tell her I loved her. I was a struggling single parent and I'd like her to know that I'm doing fine now and show her photos of all her DGGC as she never got to meet any of them.

Elvis - and I'd ask him to sing.

My MIL. She died when DH was 16, and he's made so much of himself that I'd love to be able to tell her and hear stories about him growing up. I feel so sad that I never got to meet her and she never got to meet her grandchildren.

Someone who’s part of my friendship circle from teen years.

There’s always been a spark but we’ve never even snogged. I was married, now he’s married.

We see each other a couple of times a year with other friends and do that thing of being consciously careful not to end up in bed together……..

My late Dad, pre alzheimers, so I could tell him how much I loved him.

Well, before kids it would have been some gorgeous Spanish actor and a tube of lube. However, I cannot be bothered with all that faff and effort. So I want a really good chef, a sofa and a TV remote.

Gosh. My mum ❤️

Id like to ask her if we dealt with her death with enough dignity and humour

there was nothing unresolved on our relationship but I’d love her to tel me if we did ok.

Donald Trump.
First thing I'd do would be to duct tape his mouth closed.
Then I could do the talking.
There might even be a PowerPoint presentation

Easy. My friend who died last year. Although an hour would never be enough.

My grandfather. He died in 1941 when my mum, his only child, was a baby. The older I’ve got, the more I realise that we share a lot of interests. I’d love to meet him and talk to him and ask him some stuff only he’d know the answer to.

Jesus Christ.

So. Many. Questions.

(I guess I'd need a translator as well).

My neighbour's ex-boyfriend and I can't write here the things I'd like us to do together 😳

I'd choose an hour with one of my late grandmothers, to tell her all I have done since and thank her for all she did for me.

What an incredibly moving thread. I wasn’t ready for it and I’m crying my eyes out.

💔im so sorry for what so many people have lost

I totally agree, I’m a bit embarrassed tbh at the daft way I started it off 🙈

My Grandmother too. I would tell her everything I should have told her while she was alive...how she gave me a solid foundation in life which has kept me going...how the love she showed me meant so very much...and how I loved her. I'd hold her and hug her for what she did for me, she gave me my sanity and I miss her so much. An hour with her would be wonderful.

I like the mixture on this thread.

Thought carefully about it and though I'd probably want to choose J who I had the best sex of my life with, an hour is much too short. Plus I'd have to get over him all over again and I'm not sure I have that in me.

I'm also afraid to say my late dh. I'm afraid of what he would say.

Maybe Marina Wheeler, Johnson's ex wife. I want absolutely all the dirt on the loathsome scumbag she was married to and what goes on now.

My ex-husband's ex-wife, to find out if he abused her and their kids the same as he did to me and mine. Then that would be two women feeling vindicated at having chucked him out, and who now know beyond doubt that they weren't imagining it all...which is what he wants everyone else to believe.

Patrick Stewart, and he would be reading me poetry.

Vladimir Putin, a loaded umbrella, and a quick escape strategy.

I'm picking my neurologist seeing as the next available appointment is 18 months away lol

👍😀😀

Tom Hiddleston with Rasputin by Boney M on Spotify 😆

🌹for all that have lost loved ones

Pervy answer - Dave Grohl, always. And it wouldn't be printable what I could do in that hour.

Otherwise, my darling dad who died the year I got married. He came home from work, had a heart attack and died in the early hours of New Year's Eve. I'd love to sit down with him and have a laugh and a chat again. It's been more than 25years but I still miss him to talk to.

Greedily I'd also like another hour and sit down with Anne Boleyn and find out exactly what went on. What a fascinating conversation that would be 'tell me Anne, was Henry really a fat stinky pervert? Be honest now'.
