and I've chosen here
I know there will be many many posters who disagree with me and tell me I'm wrong, but I need to put this down somewhere, even if no one understands
I couldn't even write a header for it as anything I write sounds like I'd change my boys, which I wouldn't, ever.
I have 2 boys who I couldn't love more or be more proud of, I've supported them all their lives and always will. I've stood at more pitches than I can tell, spent more on tickets, than I can begin to say, I'm just setting the picture incase someone comes on and says oh get a hobby with your boys/spend time with your boys etc etc
basically, I'm envious of friends with girls....and the close relationships they seem to have....and I'd like it for myself
I don't have any female relations, not mum etc etc and no girls in my family
I have friends, don't get me wrong, but now our kids are in their late teens/early twenties, I hear so much of what my friends with daughters do together and I just yearn for that, just a bit of that
as I said, and I cant empathise it enough, I love my boys and wouldn't change either one for every girl in the world, but I listen to what my friends are doing with their daughters, afternoon teas together, going for spa days, cocktails, make up shopping, ......and I'd just love a daughter to do this with, mind you I'd love a close sister to do this with as well, or a mum.
I suppose it's similar to a dad with only daughters who'd love a son as football mad as them, when their wife/daughters don't like football
I know MN will be full of mums who go to spa days with their teenage son etc etc but I don't and I'd just love a girl who wanted to go with me
