    My take on it is that I want to spend the next 2 years concerntrating on paying off my debts, if I got a boyf I wouldn't want to do my 2nd job which is working night duties, an OH would be a definate distraction, I would want to pay my share of dating, and I'm a big fan of mini-breaks, dinners out etc. I want to save up to travel a bit afterwards and will hopefully meet potential OH's then. On the other hand I have moments when I think I'm 31 now, most of my mates are settled and I'm on the shelf!!

    Debt wouldn't stop me seeing someone, but the cost of childcare to go for a night out would! It's £6 p/hr!

    Used to have a neighbour babysit who was brill, but she's busy with Uni and new friends so she's not home much. No family local and friends had their kids years ago and now want to go out themselves!

    DS has been offered sleepovers with school friends, but doesn't want to go! He loves being with his Mum! Bless!
    Back on the DFW Wagon:

    CC - £3,300 on 0% til 04/2020
    CC - £4,500 on 0% til 02/2019
    Loan - £12,063.84 as at 4/1/18

    Boo hoo!

    :cry:

    I would love an OH in my life, if for nothing else but to give me a big hug once in a while!

    However, the two big relationships in my life left me in debt and I'm too scared to get involved any more.

    By the time I'm over it and debt free once again, I'll be old and past it!

    :cry:

    Boo hoo!
    :eek: What if the hokey cokey is what it's all about? :eek:
