    Think of it as paying off the lease on an old car.

    That made me laugh so much I spat my tea! :D Loving the sarcasm!

    Apart from the very serious morality issues involved, how are you going to cope with all the non-stop demands from this young mother's children?

    If you find it irritating that your wife and her friend interrupted your TV viewing, you will definitely get no peace with youngsters in the house.

    Your own children are now grown up, do you really have the patience and stamina to start again?
  • you sound like my dad - he had a midlife crisis at 50, went off with a younger woman and destroyed my life and my mother's.

    Don't be so !!!!!!! selfish. Talk to your wife and give her the respect she deserves. Maybe she knits because YOU have let yourself go.

    I wouldn't say I was old at 50. I'm sure others will agree.
    I have heard what a lot of ladies have to say on here but what about the fellas. If they were given the opportunity to swap from a knitting nanny to a young attractive girl, with her own place, would they go for it. We both have a lot in common. Share the same kind of humour. I really don't want to let the opportunity pass by. They don't come along that often.

    Move out tonight ! The sooner you start to enjoy your new life, the happier you will be. (Don't worry about the bimbo's kids, she can tell them you're Santa Claus and having a sleepover).

    Errata, what makes her a Bimbo?She is actually quite a clever girl. She has been to Uni and is second in charge to quite a large department. I agree with many on here that maybe she is looking for a Father figure, but I can be just that. The fact that she is really good looking is a bonus, surely!!!

    Paul, you should be ashamed of yourself, you are not interested remotely in trying to save your marriage. You cant be bothered to even try to talk to your wife, your ego is being stroked and youre thinking through the zip in your trousers.

    Just go for it, we have all wasted our time on here. You just want us to agree with you, well i for one do not. Had you said you had tried talking to your wife
    my opinion would be different but i just think you are a selfish, patronising (to your wife) preck - so there.

    Just remember = what goes round comes around - never fails.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
