Just got back from a week away in a cheesy holiday park, which was awesome.
We did quite a lot of the evening entertainment as the kids are old enough to enjoy it all now. We also swam and did the beach a couple of times.
I am now completely invisible on the dance floor. For the first time in my life I could throw drunken shapes without being pestered by men trying to dance at me. I had a rare old time. Also standing at the bar without being groped or approached at all.
In the pool and at the beach I gave zero fucks about my wobbly legs and tummy, and felt confident that no one gave me a second glance.
I’m loving this! I’m not suggesting I used to be a hot young thing but there has certainly been a sharp drop off of unwanted attention since I hit my late thirties, put on some weight and cut my hair short.
I’m not sure whether it’s just that I look middle aged and no longer attractive to the male gaze, or whether the confidence of age has given me super fuck off vibes, or what. But it’s great. I might even start going clubbing again.
