Shagging ‘on your own doorstep’

Shagging, casually, a dad from your kids school- I’m thinking DISASTER written all over it. My friend thinks (with her fanny!) that if they are both on the same page it’ll be a bit of fun. I think it’ll be five years of cringing on the school run or in the village shop.
AIBU?

Grow up.

PinkYellowTinsel · 02/01/2021 19:31

You need to stop getting involved in other peoples sex lives..

Catflapkitkat · 02/01/2021 19:32

It's got disaster stamped all over it.

Minecraft4life · 02/01/2021 19:32

Strange response. They are both single btw!
I think it’s too close to home and will lead to inevitable drama.

Erm...

NiceGerbil · 02/01/2021 19:32

If they're both single then so what.

Jesus.

LoveMyKidsAndCats · 02/01/2021 19:33

Leave them to it some people have no shame (me included I wouldn't care seeing him everyday 😜)

Orf1abc · 02/01/2021 19:34

Assuming they're both single, I can't see why it would cause a problem. If having sex with someone makes you cringe afterwards, you're doing it wrong.

Hahaha amazing. But what if the sex was terrible. Then you’d die a little inside at assembly surely 🤣

Is this the Year 9 WhatsApp chat?

Brighterthansunflowers · 02/01/2021 19:35

As long as it’s not actually on the doorstep it’s no one else’s business

You really don’t sound like a friend to this woman at all! Certainly not the kind of friend I’d want to have

Orf1abc · 02/01/2021 19:35

Do all your relationships lead to drama?

Minecraft4life · 02/01/2021 19:35

Why so snippy?

I’m just trying to save her some red faces. I think there are plenty of men in the world without choosing someone you will be unable to avoid for years.

I think there is more to this.

Could you perhaps be a teensy bit jealous?
I think you will say no but really- you are arnt you?

Minecraft4life · 02/01/2021 19:38

Haha according to my last thread I’m destined to bang my platonic friend so I don’t have time for school dads.
Maybe I’m more easily cringed than most then.

Agree!!! Leave out OP, you can have distance-from-home criteria for your sex partners if you want, but your friend can do what she likes.

Minecraft4life · 02/01/2021 19:39

I guess if it was amazing fireworks it would be ok. My fear is he will turn out to be penetration man or own a penis beaker or something and then she will have to swerve him whilst doing a little sick in her mouth for the next five years.

Are you all teenage parents?

Are you all miserable twats?

Are you hoping this will end in disaster so you can say "told you so?"

Minecraft4life · 02/01/2021 19:42

No, absolutely not.

Why are you afraid of what kind of sex they'll have? If they're both single and fancy each other where's the harm, it might turn out to be a great relationship for both of them.
Theunamedcat · 02/01/2021 19:45

Well you get what you settle for

Personally I would say she is making a mistake but I've made the same one married and divorced him worst mistake EVER

Sparklesocks · 02/01/2021 19:45

I say leave them to it. Sometimes it’s awkward when you have a sexual relationship with someone and it ends but you still bump into each other frequently afterwards - but most can be adult about it. Also you can relatively easily avoid certain others at the school gates if you really need to. Your friend is a big girl, I’m sure she’ll manage.
