I open my mouth and hear my Mother coming out. I swore I'd never be like her!

SpottedGingham · 15/08/2017 22:32

Never wanted children (then had DD who is 21 and wouldn't be without her!)
I left my controlling husband and am now with the best man in the world. 💋

I have learnt to never say never as it always happens my list is:

Have children
Have sex
Sleep with a man
Learn to drive

Be an accountant. My whole family are accountants. I went into the arts. Loved it but couldn't get a steady job and support myself long term. So guess what I'm training for now!

Give a BJ.

I said I'd never have kids! 4 darling daughters later... when I had my first I had all kinds of ideas of what sort of parent I would be. I was very wrong!

Marry me best friend... Almost 10th wedding anniversary and a DC. We both thought it would ruin the friendship. It just made it a squillion times stronger. My DH is amazing (sorry for the soppies).

KeepServingTheDrinks · 16/08/2017 01:04

blimey, there's a LOT of bum sex on here...

MaMisled · 16/08/2017 01:10

Another co sleeper here, swore I never would.

Swore I'd never wear trainers.

Swore I'd never take a senior position at work. Have. Love it.

Swore I'd accept myself as I am and never diet again. Have. Love my new look!

MrsOverTheRoad · 16/08/2017 01:37

Move to Australia!

I said I would never do it.

10 years later you couldn't get me on the plane fast enough. I love it here.

Bananasinpyjamas11 · 16/08/2017 01:43

Be really tidy. Love not being messy anymore.

Live in a new build. Love the space.

Not mind missing out on parties or dinners - no fomo for me!

I used to want to travel a lot, now I'm really pleased when I can be home and be boring.

Sunshinegirls · 16/08/2017 01:48
