Peeking at her online profile. Her favourite gadget (apparently) is a rabbit. I am aghast

OMG!
How are you ever going to be able to face her again!?
I think I'd go bright red and snigger childishly if I saw her after seeing that
Not very helpful for you I understand. lol

Me being the innocent thought "she doesn't have a rabbit", then it dawned on me! Count me out of any future dinner parties!

This is why the internet is evil. Ugh.

I am so glad my ILs don't really use the net. (I'm 100% sure they don't swing, either, but I bet you were just as sure, before you saw the profile?)

auntymandy · 13/02/2007 07:19

fancy putting it on her profile knowing you might read it...unless its a joke?

kittywaitsfornumber6 · 13/02/2007 07:43

That's a bit of a shock for you . Still I think it's great that others are having sex even if I'm not

auntymandy · 13/02/2007 07:44

hijack...are you expecting no6?

kittywaitsfornumber6 · 13/02/2007 07:50

indeed I am, so I suppose I've had sex 6 times , shouldn't complain

auntymandy · 13/02/2007 07:54

Me too!!!!!

drifter · 13/02/2007 08:08

What's the connection between being a swinger and using a rabbit?

DimpledThighs · 13/02/2007 08:23

well good for her!

kittywaitsfornumber6 · 13/02/2007 08:32

Auntymandy,when's yours due? Did you know that you are infact insane?

moondog · 13/02/2007 08:36

Oh gawd,how awful.
Does her son know???

kittywaitsfornumber6 · 13/02/2007 08:40

I can understand being shocked to discover this but honestly they are adults having sex, what's the problem?

Yes he knows now. Bit shocked all round, I am gutted for him. It is most definatly not a joke on her profile, she is just that dim!

few days shy of 49. I do not have a problem with swinging per se, but, it is a shock to find out your own MIL is looking out for couples to join them!

Did she really set this profile up herself?

Imagine writing about the rabbit on a site anyone can access....

jampot · 13/02/2007 09:00

swinglowsweetchariot - i imagine you are a little shocked but then spare a thought for your dh whose mum it is - dont think you should have shared this with him regardless of the amusement factor. How would you feel if he ruined the image you have of your mum?

kittywaitsfornumber6 · 13/02/2007 09:05

I too am curious as to how you managed to stumble across this information??????

SSShakeTheChi · 13/02/2007 09:07

can you be sure it is her and not someone else with the same name?
