Recently I've noticed my colleagues and dh are getting on my nerves.They are all men,everything thing they do seems so childish. Weirdly I've always worked with men no issues .
Tbh the misogyny is rife where I work I just wondered if anyone else has been through similar in the menopause.

Thought Germaine Greer put it simply and well when she said that post-meno, you 'become more like the girl you were, before hormones took over.' A second childhood, doing the things that you like, reading and creating and spending time outdoors and laughing with your friends, what's not to like?
This is exactly it!

I keep looking at online dating, I only need to look for about 5 mins before the sight of the pictures of men thinking they're God's gift makes me shut the page down. Having a companion sounds like a nice idea but the reality is that I could not be arsed to get another 'child' to look after. I'd rather have another dog.
