Dating A Hunchback


The art of dating when you are in your 40’s is a perilous, soul destroying mission. I blame my never ending search for ‘happy ever after’ on my parents, who with the best of intentions invariably reared me on the “Fairy Tale Factor”.

It was easier in my 20’s. Mr Right had hair; his own teeth – I could search in the 20’s man pool. Now, my toe has to slink into the 50’s pool. And when you finally find one that meets the minimum requirements, humorous, can string a sentence together, you don’t physically shudder upon meeting; you find out they don’t come with baggage – they come with whole other thing. A veritable harridan of a wife who hasn’t quite made it to the ‘ex’ list as yet; and she is clinging to his back like a hump.

Putting the Ho into Ho Ho Ho!

I can’t believe that the Harridan is so lacking in common sense, that she would storm the place on Boxing day and demand that the Squeeze, Kid 1 and Kid 2, all front up outside so she can tell them all point blank that ALL COMMUNICATION MUST GO VIA HER.

Yes…  How DARE we invite the Squeeze’s kids to a Boxing day dinner – without organising it via her.   My mistake; but then I didn’t realise...  I mean given that two of them don’t live at home, I just couldn't foresee an issue.  

And what did that achieve..?   I mean other than upsetting everyone – including her own children.

Yes.  What a martyr.  Everything she does is for the kids.  Everything....

  1. oh what a cow! Why don;t the kids rebel against her? How does she manage to have such a hold over them. What it they all told her to take a hike?

  2. I think it is years of "domination".

  4. Simple really. Her breathing is the one thing I absolutely do want.
    Otherwise I've got the kid full time from here on in... :-)
