Exercising about 5-6 hours a day and on a very low calorie diet in order to get a slim body to try and impress my 'rough boy' crush.!! - Council estate, bad boy - you get the picture.

Managed to lose a stone in a month.

Who said feminism was dead?

Why have you started 2 threads like this in AIBU Confused

RunnyRattata · 12/08/2016 21:52

Getting ready for my wedding the week after next. 6 weeks prep from start to finish so I was a bit busySmile

Salem - a poster on the 30yrs one said they'd like e.g. a 25 yr one better so I thought "Why not?" but I'm not starting any more - sorry I shouldn't have started in AIBU - thinking about it - wrong place.

Why not Salem?
Probably enjoying the school holiday, age 10.

Yeah, my fault! Halo

I was about to be eight, and having a miserable time at primary school, despite having aced those most important SATs...serves my own right for saying '25 years ago thread'......

BigMamaFratelli · 12/08/2016 22:12

Worrying about starting secondary school. Good lord that makes me feel old!

SalemSaberhagen · 12/08/2016 22:12

Because there is no AIBU involved painted

MaureenMLove · 12/08/2016 22:13

I had to think about 25 years ago for a minute there, then I remembered my DH and I renewed our wedding vows last week for 25 years of wedded bliss! (Clearly I'm getting old and can't remember much!)

So, 25 years ago, I was newly married! Grin

FelixFelix · 12/08/2016 22:13

I had just celebrated my 1st birthday two days ago!

Almostfifty · 12/08/2016 22:15

At home with my PFB.

dudsville · 12/08/2016 22:15

I was 19 years old and making life defining decisions the depth of which I couldn't fathom.

peaceloveandtwirlywoos · 12/08/2016 22:15

I was five and had just celebrated my sister's first birthday. School holidays in between reception and year one. Possibly in Spain.

Alisvolatpropiis · 12/08/2016 22:16

Just over a month off turning three.

Definitely in bed asleep not sat in the garden having a glass or two of wine.

ifcatscouldtalk · 12/08/2016 22:16

About to start secondary school, as is my daughter now.

derektheladyhamster · 12/08/2016 22:18

In primary school, top of class and fairly sure the world was my lobster oyster.

PaulAnkaTheDog · 12/08/2016 22:24

Being a bratty two year old.
