    I just can't get my head around a grown woman - single, able bodied and intelligent - just working part time and living day to day... that doesn't fit with the story you're telling us.


    This is why I have not commented before -


    The OP's posts are very well written and give the impression that the writer is intelligent and educated.


    It doesn't add up to me that the writer of such posts would be drifting along in a part time dead end job at the age of 25.


    None of it adds up.

    You can be educated/intelligent and still struggling to find your way. The two aren't mutually exclusive.

    You drag up a 5 month old thread just to make a dig?
  • Genuinely didn't spot this was an old thread. I'm in another with Gemma and felt it was a bit unfair the way this had been left.

    As you can see, we spent 13 pages trying to help Gemma, but Gemma didn't want helping :(

    I know I personally took a lot of time offering help

    Hope Gemma is doing OK (I'm assuming it's the same Gemma?)
