Is anyone in love with you?

Just wondering...afaik, no one is, with me...though I am slightly in love with about 2 or 3 people

There always used to be quite a few, you know, well at least one...kind of an ego boost to know someone thinks you are great.

It can include people other than your DH/dp.

Only my DC's, and I'm sure that's not what you mean. Other than that nobody, DH, I think, loves me, but is not 'in love' with me, nor I him.

meatntattypie · 17/03/2010 12:02

mmmm, nice thread.
My dh is in love with me, tells me 500000 a day, i think that my ds quite likes me too.

Apart from that, no one i can think of.
In my youth, i had admirers but now, i am fat, old and a slob, so actually dont even deserve my hubby......sigh

apart from your lovely dh of course

having that aura of walking down the street, and getting looked at by people in an approving fashion. It's something that belongs to youth, I think...and maybe bonsoir anna

sorry Trin, cross posts.

No. Not for the last 8 years and I was married for most of them .

Someone said he was fairly recently but he had only just left his wife and I think that any woman would have done to take her place.

TheSteelFairy2 · 17/03/2010 12:33

I am in love with Tom Hardy and Edward Cullen though. It is much safer like this .

Fizzfiend · 17/03/2010 12:39

I know of one man who'd quite like to get into my knickers, but I think that's about it (and that's definitely not my DH!)

And sausagepastie, I disagree that that belongs to youth...when you're feeling great about yourself and walking down the street, men often look at you and make comments (nice ones rather than "you old bag." I'm 44 and last summer was going through a very good phase and I suddenly stopped being invisible.

steelfairy

ikwym about the desperation type thing, though. I have an old friend who always claims to fancy me, but really he just started off being in love with all the girls at our school, and one by one they have blown him off or got married. I'm the only one left! and I wouldn't marry him if he was the last person on earth.

Of course - our love for one another grows stronger every year, we are very much "in love" and celebrate our silver wedding anniversary in a few days.

I realise that we are very blessed and it makes me so sad for Trinity and all the other people who have lost the person who loved them like no other. xxx

New thread... relationship problems.

Hi, I need to talk. I cant discuss this with anyone I know and if I did I think I would sound as confused as I think I am.

I am a stay at home Mum. My husband and I agreed this was what we wanted to do. He works a lot and we have no relatives in the country and friends are pretty much busy with their own kids.

Husband goes out for work alot with but started going out and not coming home till morning. 5 months ago he went out didnt call answer texts and didnt come home in the morning, My 12 year old and I called all the friends nobody knew anything, called police who called his mobile 2pm-ish and voila!! he answers, no explanation of where or why.

Since then things have been going downhill, he literally ignores me changes the subject when I speak, acting like an impudent "hoody",
My daughters have noticed things are different and I cant answer when they ask where's Dad etc why doesnt daddy want to spend time with us...

I am catholic and in my heart do not want to leave and yes I do want to pretend for the kids, but I really need to want to disentangle myself from the relationship, and commitments to the household.

It would be nice if you could all reply with (constructive ) feedback, I am really angry hurt and scared and this is unfortunately my life. sad..

though you are most welcome to have this thread, if it helps...it's been quiet anyway

Can you maybe talk to a priest, or are you afraid they will think you are a bad wife etc?

TheSteelFairy2 · 17/03/2010 13:09

meatntattypie He runs very fast, will you be able to keep up with him? I go jogging every day so I think he may well end up choosing me.

TheSteelFairy2 · 17/03/2010 13:10

sausagepastie lol at your old friend, I have one like this too. Do we all know someone like this?

sungirltan · 17/03/2010 13:13

my dh (i hope!) and my years in the past ex, fireman.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 17/03/2010 16:14

ds and dd tell me they love me everyday

they also love their bedtime dog teddies too

OrmRenewed · 17/03/2010 16:21

Ha ha ha! No.

DH loves me a great deal more than I deserve. But he isn't in love.

Hullygully · 17/03/2010 16:27

Flocks and flocks. I can hardly fight my way through the flowers heaped up outside my front door. I might be confusing myself with Diana's death however.

timelordvictorious · 17/03/2010 16:33

Bloke is. He tells me all the time, he gets in bed first so it's warm when I get in, and he made me packed lunch to take to uni today. I am utterly in love with him.

Boydog is. He lights up when I cone through the door, treating me to wagging stump and full on dog-snogs.(This could just be because I am the Walkies-And-Bonio lady) Girldog is far less demonstrative, and almost cat like in her aloofness. I adore then both.

And DD. I hope she is. If she loves me half as much as I love her I am a lucky, lucky timelord.

Trinity-he does love you. Not did. Big hug x

Fizzfiend · 17/03/2010 19:35

Timelord...what I wouldn't give for a wagging stump when I walked through the door..lol...sorry to be so crude!!!

Sausagepastie....well after 3 years of being ignored by DH I had an affair, which is not really the answer, but god I looked good on it...just that secret smile on my face knowing someone was thinking of me lustfully...suddenly all the men on the street instinctively know you have sex appeal..I guess you could try fake it rather than having an affair. My affair is fading fast, but I still try and walk confidently down the street. BTW, the best photos of me are the ones where I'm thinking of sex...try it!!!
