Like you said. There's no spark. If you don't love him then don't marry him. A marraige can't be based on security. It is so much more than that.

Oh dear. Did I scare everyone off!!?

Evening everyone (again)
When do they start sleeping through? ( I seem to remember asking this when he was about 4 months, and then reading in a book that it was 7 months....)

Is affraid with 2 f's worse than afraid then Eddas?

And Eddas, ahem, do you ever plan to give me your new mobile number/address or do I have to just drive aimlessly around Kent?

OP posts:
Eddas · 30/07/2008 22:28
