    Love it! great attitude!
    I've noticed in the singles ads in our local paper that blokes 5/10 years older than me are looking for females 5/10 years younger than me.:confused: maybe they are better breeding stock!

    My X was 44, I think Age gaps for men and women kind of cease, its Ironic, my X at first saw me as some kind of "toyboy", yet she still found a younger model.

    I'm just out the road from you in Cheadle but soon to move to Macclesfield. The one good thing to come out of the divorce is a lovely mortgage free 2 bed loft apartment in a converted silk mill!

    Quite the oppositte for me, I gave up the house, and moved out leaving her with the lot, for the sake of the kids (not my real kids), Id just spent a fortune on that place too.

    Right now I know some guy is sat on my leather reclyner, holding my remote, wearing my slippers. But all of that is just material, I can easily rebuild. You could say my X came out laughing from this, but its one thing to have it handed over, a completely different story to keep and maintain it.
