Northern soul with a sharp tongue and a soft spot for cats. Fifty-something, figuring it all out — again. Working-class roots, untangling old knots, chasing new beginnings.

Hiya, brand new on here. From the North of England born and bred, mother, cat-wrangler, collector of bruised teabags and half-told stories. I've a lot to get off my chest and everyone and his dog knows me on FB so I thought I'd give here a whirl.
Hola gang. Sorry it's been like forever. Anywho. I finally dumped him. Finito. Adiós. NGL wasn't pleasant at all. Just couldn't stay in it any longer. So I guess I am now single. Whoot

I can't stand the sight of him. This is so bad. Gonna have to be brave when I get home and call it a day. I was going to wait till I'm in a better position financially so that I could be the one to leave to make it easier for him. But I don't think I can wait that long.

Gonna have to have a kip. Knackered. I've sent home out to the beach out of my way.

I came very close to smothering himself with a pillow last night. He said this morning "I didn't think I snored much anymore" really? Fucking really? How do you figure that out? You're asleep. Can't wait to have my own home, bedroom and bed to myself. So done with sharing.

I've decided to eat at the snack bar tonight. He can eat dinner alone. He apparently wants more variety than a salad. Feels like a euphemism.

Book idea. How I got sex fit.
May 26, 2025 at 1:42 PM
Just occurred to me. When I find someone whom I can have an active sex life with, I need to be fit. I best get my arse into gear and get fit. 5 years is a long time eh. Well out of practice.

Himself has left me alone by the pool. Not arsed.

I have deliberately not worn the rings himself bought me. I'm wearing the rings I bought for myself as a fuck you statement. He's not asked.

I've spent a very long time self medicating on alcohol and pills. I'm clean of both now. Now I'm awake. Now I see that the problems in the relationship were there all along. Quite an awakening.

exactly my experience. I told doctors “hey I am taking opiates for my pain” and most of them were very uninterested in figuring out what was going on.

Been told off by the pool gastapo.

Why do others, Russians, assume everyone else is stupid. Stood at the coffee machine, coffee bag in a box needed exchanging for a new one. Me laddo gone off to get one. All the Brits stood in a polite queue waiting patiently. Russians storm up and start bashing buttons. I explain. They look at me

There are a lot of kitties here. They're adorable. Near slapped a bloke last night for his behaviour towards them. Btw no chemicals in the pool as it's free flowing infinity pool. No harm will come to the kitties. I'll buy some more food for them tonight.

Himself has plastered himself in Sauvage again. NGL I can't stand it. It's awful. I haven't said anything because how he smells doesn't concern me anymore. It doesn't get me in the feels of ya get me. I have another week of this being together 24/7.

Just self scanning and my feet aren't too bad ya know. Think I'll set up one of those feet accounts. Sell feet photos. Gonna need to sell a lot to make enough money though eh. But as side hustles go I think it's worth exploring

Any menopausal women out there? Why does my skin look like it's melting? My whole body has gone slack. I need a body lift. I do want some surgery anyway so best add that to the list. I need to quit the fags to get fit for surgery. Not easy but what do I want more? I don't like myself very much

I've abused and neglected my body. Time to start taking good care of it. It's not just that I want to be slim I want to be fit and strong. Strength being the main objective. Build muscle. I don't like how weak I've become physically. I feel old. Himself makes me feel old. Putting the brakes on that.

I've been and bagged the sun loungers with the towels. Yes I am one of those people. Only because others do it. Wouldn't get a sun lounger otherwise. Met a lady here got to say she looks bloody amazing for 56 so that's given me a kick up the arse. I have lost 3 stone so far. Another 4 to go. Yikes.

It's awful when you know your next big decision is going to affect someone else's happiness. I can't be responsible for that, I keep telling myself, I'm sacrificing my happiness if I stay. Life's way too short for that. If I stay , no I can't even contemplate that. I need a plan.

Last night me and himself were getting along, doing crosswords together. I thought oh this is nice. Having a bit of a laugh and that. Time for bed, so I go and brush teeth etc. Come out of the bathroom to find him in his usual position, on top of the bedding, fully clothed, face down. 😳

Helooo new followers. I'm still trying to figure this place out so I did the starter pack thing to follow some like minded peeps. I'm slowly settling in. How lovely that you all followed me back. Full transparency I bitch a lot about my crappy relationship but other than that I'm bright n breezy
May 25, 2025 at 1:03 PM
And I know how I am making him feel but I can't do this let's pretend game any longer. No intimacy in a relationship is a deal breaker for me. Too far gone for talking about it too. Done that got the t-shirt .
May 25, 2025 at 12:09 PM
Sorry it's been a while. Had quite a bit going on. Anyway. Just to vent a little. I'm on holiday with himself. He's grinding my gears man. Had to absent myself and come back to the room. Ran a bubble bath. Hiding. I can't do this weird relationship anymore. It's not normal.
