AIBU to think that comprehension just isn't a strong point with some people.

I've noticed this quite a lot over the time I have on MN.

Referring to a recent thread re early retirement. The poster quite clearly stated that DH wanted to retire in 14 months (when mortgage paid) and wanted her to retire at the same time. She is 10 years his junior and works part time.

OK, first answer was "So he wants you both to retire in early forties"

Second response "Can you change to part time work"

I can understand this if we were 10 pages into the thread because we don't all have time to read all responses, but come on, the first two responses?

I've name changed for this as it makes me too recognisable

Well I'll be doing it on a budget this year: Candles made from my own earwax, and knitted blankets (the wool is made from spun cat hair I collected from the carpet). YABVVVU if you don't do the same.

My ex boyfriend's aunt sold up when she retired. She winters in Benidorm and summers in Cleethorpes.

(that is actually true)

Can you hire a cleaning company to come do a deep clean to help you get back on track?
Your marriage sounds salvageable.

Where do you plan to live after you retire, OP?

Your post reeks of prejudice, OP.

Namechanged as I don't want to be outed (but oldie regular - naice ham, pom bears, NDKFOGPEEIIRUUS, poo crumbs, cutted up pear etc.)

OP, YANBU.

Retire? Do you think it could be OW?

I would get his phone / hack his PC / commit other act of dubious legality.

You need a plan. Possibly with random times that may or may not work for you (6pm?) and unrelated suggestions (maybe get in pizza for DC - of course it's junk food, but extenuating circumstances IMO?), all of which require parentheses (confide in DM?).

Sorry..Ive not read all the thread but is this a reverse AIBU?

Is that you Rosepetal?

God your DP sounds just like my ex. Is he called Gary and does he live in Wolverhampton?? PM me if so.

It's all because of the babyboomers rattling round the massive mansions they bought for a pittance.

My favourite was George Harrison.

This too shall pass when you are both in your 50s together

OP, everyone has been very quick to tell you to LTB just because he called you a 'fat munter' 2 days after giving birth to triplets. But ask yourself honestly, have you let yourself go? Because unless you are at least 6 foot tall, being larger than a size 14 is quite frankly VERY VERY unhealthy, you are at grave risk of heart disease and diabetes and will probably be dead before your DC start Reception. He's probably just concerned about your health!

I wonder why the OP hasn't come back

Bridge dweller me thinks.

It's ESpresso NOT EXpresso. Why won't people get it right?
blithely ignores fact that expresso is correct in the Francophone world

How dare the school interfere and tell me what can and can't go into the lunch box.

Gin OP, and lots of it.

Failing that, get a family bag of Kettle Chips and hope that distracts them while you hide.

Good luck x

If she was spayed in the first place you wouldn't have this problem.

If it's really that bad, buy a voucher for a back, sac and crack wax and slip it through his letterbox when he's out.

Just be warned, the true enormity of the situation will be revealed without its natural camouflage...

Have some . It fixes everything..EVERYTHING

OP, did you mean to be so rude?

( POSSIBLE TRIGGER )

I hate Halloween! Bunch of commercialised American crap! Just an opportunity to extort sweets from people and scare those poor old people..
