    There are two NP that I can think of who I believe to be younger than me. :)One of them reads more than posts and one is absent atm.

    is it rewired?

    Remember the conversation many months (a year?) ago about middle class women creating/selling daft overpriced stuff and services to other middle class women ... creating lifestyle businesses?

    I mentioned this one .... well she's only gone and got a fricken award for it ... must have some mates in right places: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-15184898

    Its interesting, because while people seem to be younger for longer, I think in general we all are confused by the myth of young = sexy and other then young...in the case of LJ and I for example. :D equals not sexy any more.

    I think men only start to come into their own in the mid twenties and then thirties. I know a lot of men wouldn't feel the same about other than young women,:o

    I'm cr4p at "team-work" and loathe meetings. I wouldn't like to supervise or manage other people, either.

    I'm good at my job, though. Which involves working hard, to constant deadlines, being responsible for my own decisions, and mine alone.
    In my book that IS team work :)

    Taking responsibility, as part of a team, to meet the deadlines. Ensures the rest of the team get their bit on time so are given a stress free life as they know they can rely on you to do the work to a high standard and on time :)

    but fair enough....so long as you do SOMETHING ELSE proactive instead of sitting and waiting for love to find you without you making an effort....

    edit: especially people like YOU LEMONJELLY, who don't have to work it in around childcare. :)

    That edit was aimed at me, wasn't it? How kind and thoughtful you are, lir. But indeed I am not doing nothing. I'm not posting about that on here, though. :eek:

    I don't think any regulars on TNPT are immature to be honest.

    Said poster doesn't post every day or two and therefore is not a "regular" as described above in my earlier post.

    RTFM :p

    actually I think I'm fairly immature in some ways. I can be a bit dogmatic: which is a sign of immaturity I think, and also because dh and I don't have kids we don't have to be grown ups in our personal lives all that much.
