I have to agree - it's all down to that Y chromosome.

Good luck!

PS Whether it turns up positive or not perhaps some 'training' is called for!

yes... not sure when to start the training - I think he needs UNtraining from his ex first (the whole not lifting a finger thing for example - he's great in his own place, and when he's making an effort, but sometimes he just doesn't notice... he thinks if he isn't asked he can just do his own thing :mad:

greenbee he is probably feeling just the same but cant get privacy to say so - if you and he are happy in your relationship then you have nothing to worry about and if your are p then it was meant to be - after all you are old enough to have taken any necessary precautions - relax and occupy yourself and stop stressing or you might say things you dont mean (((hugs)))

Gosh, I AM glad to be home,

Cold, tired and lacking of tea today.

Did shopping for Dad today, asked some of his older neighbours if they wanted anything from the shops. 22 people said "yes, please".

I never realised how many people in his road couldn't get out to the shops and unlike last year no-one could get to them.

Many listys later, all stuff put away in all its houses.:D

One little old ladys scooter towed back home after its battery died, (not towed with LoL on it). :rotfl:

So I'm feeling very chuffed today, even if I is cream crackered.
