What's an Iron?

[Shunter350]

I've asked in the relationship forum but no one has taken me on..

In reference to OLD.. what's an Iron?

I think it's potential dates or how many people you're speaking to, irons in the fire so to speak.

I could also be entirely wrong 😅

A long time ago it meant a gay man. Rhyming slang. I doubt that is it though

Can you give the context or how it was written?

Well in our house dc have ipads. Iphones. Poor me can just manage an iron..

I thought this was going to be a post about a dh that didn’t actually know what an iron was.

@wiltshirelass1418 is right, it's an "iron in the fire", ie someone you're talking to/potentially dating.

Thanks all.."irons in the fire" it is then..
Oh and I do know what the other iron is.. I'm ok with housework actually!
