But, then I thought about the matter more:o:o. (Typical Asperger now always thinking and considering things in depth and then coming back with a considered answer.) And my thought was:
:oI don't know:o. I think it depends on how large the dress actually is in RL, and I can't tell from the photo. How long is the actual dress? (Not that I'd know what answer to give even if I then knew the length:o:rotfl:. I've no clue as to lengths of dresses - bit of a blindspot:doh::o:rotfl:.) I mean - it could be a kid's dress of about a foot high for all I can tell - I assume it's not though?
You assume right Savvy. It's not a kids dress :rotfl: xxCherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

You are correct again Savvy, they are adult legs :rotfl:

I think savvy is saying you have a nice bum
How you doing
I originally wrote (as one of the obvious inappropriate answers) "it's too big for your bum", then realised that, to be really inappropriate, it should have said "too small". It's a joke and the joke is that it is a play on the response that a person with Asperger's might give to such a question, but is not the response that I am giving. At the risk of continuing to explain the obvious, if someone, hypothetically in a hypothetical situation, were to say a dress was too small for someone's bum, it would mean the person had a large bum and therefore obviously more inappropriate and insulting! Hence why it was chosen as the "wrong answer", as an inappropriate response - and I was completely joking about it. Don't worry - if I had meant it, I wouldn't have crossed it out!
Having confused everyone, I wasn't making any comment, negative or positive, about anyone's bum there - I was saying cjj you look nice in the dress. Which you do.
The dress looks fine to me - if it fits you, it isn't too young for you at all. As long as the dress fits, it seems fine! Go ahead.
Also, I remember that I am looking at the dress in detail here (having been encouraged to assess something by being asked my opinion about it) - but I doubt that many people around you in RL when you wore it would look at it in that depth. We are so often our own worst critics - no-one else around us ever criticises our choices more than ourselves! So,:oif there were any minor imperfections - and I can't see any:), even on my detailed examination of the photo of the dress:):), then :oI doubt that anyone around would see them anyway:o:o. I shouldn't have said!:rotfl::rotfl: But, no, I think it's perhaps a more useful response, if that's what you want. I think the dress is absolutely fine - looks good to me. I think you are getting a bit like me - looking at something in detail, trying to find fault. Sometimes, need to step back (literally) and take a look at it from the 'bigger picture' - just how people generally around you would see it and, from that, where we stop getting caught up in detail and take an "in the round" approach, it's absolutely fine. Anyway, on either level, detail or no detail, it's a very nice dress. If it's comfortable to wear, go with it! I like the colours.
Anyway, even if it were "too young" for you, it would make you look young:kisses3:. Which you are - you're still a spring chicken in many aspects, certainly not old at 43 at all!0 -
