To be wide awake and unable to sleep - so come tell me your secret thoughts that you would only whisper down a deep well at dead of night.

[Salmotrutta]

One of mine is :-

I can't abide one of my colleagues.

This person is loud, wants to be the centre of attention and, whatever the conversation is about, manages to turn it around to them.

[Fugghetaboutit]

Ah, the one that got away yep I can relate.

[Laska42]

cheezy I do that also.. I get to feeling sorry for things ( you know like cups and stuff if they get damaged.. If things get broken I tell them sorry also .. I saw a cartoon a few weeks ago (in a Saturday Guardian) about a house plant that was so happy being alive but then didnt get watered , and it kept begging for water from its owner who couldnt understand it .then it was alsmost ded when the owner realised and gave the nearley dead plant a drink its last gasp was 'thank you lady'. I almost cried.. .. My plants have been much better looked after since.... God i'm just so soft..

toad.. Im happily married and have been for many years , but I still think of old boyfriends (even one-daters) often and wonder if they ever remember me.. I'd never look them up though.. there were good reasons why I stopped being with them..

I utterly hate being a parent. Although I have actually said that to some people :(

[MoiraBrown101]

Me too no73. DS is 13 weeks old, I've not taken to it at all. No depression, not having terrible thoughts or anything, just really really don't enjoy being a mother. Some people just don't.

[no73]

Mines 5. I'm miserable most of the time, we never have fun as it is a constant round of battles, screaming, shouting and hitting me. I look at other people and think 'how are you having so much fun when I absolutely hate it'. I feel very sorry for my child.

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

I'm 49yo and I have many times in the last year or so thought about my death (not that I intend to anytime soon. My grandmother reached 95yo so good genes)

But one day, I will end.
There will be nothing more of me.
And I cannot help but look back and think "where did my teens/20s/30s/40s go ?)

But before I was born I knew nothing. Once I'm gone I'll know nothing.

And when the world ends?
We'll all know nothing.

In a strange way , I envy our pets. They embrace each season. Summer to eat and get chubby. Autumn to get their thick fur. Winter to sleep as much as possible. Spring to breed (except they're neutered)
Then when the time comes, they cross The Rainbow Bridge.
Without fuss or fear.

For a multitude of reasons I won't go into, I often think I can do better than DH

[PiperChapstick]

For Moira and no73

[meadowquark]

My marriage is a failure, has been for a long time. I recently caught myself thinking of lesbian butch women and that I feel attracted to them. I have never considered myself lesbian though I felt in a similar way when I was a teen.
I even imagined myself dressed up as a butch. I don't recognize myself...

[Notasinglefuckwasgiven]

Glad this is still going. Nice to know we have somewhere to vent....Classics?
