So after Christmas everyone decides to cut down the food and beer intake, why? as long as you eat properly again afterwards you will be fine and your kidneys clear your system off all the bad stuff, so no need to detox and with this in mind I went to my friends birthday with all intent to have a good drink and a laugh.
I wasn't sure if I was going to make it to his birthday as the gf had organised to go out the same night for her friends birthday which left us with a little man needing to be babysat, she had told me not to ask any of her family to babysit and I wasn't allowed to get a babysitter in as she doesn't like the idea of a stranger in the house. So me being me, I text her brother to see if he could babysit, but I wasn't doing it as her family but as my friend, but this still got me in to trouble and a blazing row. With everything sorted for my son to stay with his uncle I dropped him off at about 6pm Saturday and went home to get ready, which for me meant jumping in to the shower and sorting my clothes out, which took about half hour but another hour waiting for the gf. The gf was going to come with me for the beginning of the night then meet her friends during the evening, which I had no problems with, so we get a taxi as we are running a little late, women, get in and the drinking starts. It was just the four of us to start with but people started turning up about 8 half 8ishm there was an ex of mine there, which when the gf saw rolled her eyes and left me a bit uncomfortable as if I wanted to have a chat with the ex I knew it would be awkward.
The gf didn't bother going to meet up with her friends and stayed with us till the end of the night which was quite nice and we had a good belly full of beer and her with her cherry Sourz and coke (alcoholic Cherry coke). When we were kicked out of the pub I went with my mate back to his house to play the Wii, the gf was invited but she wanted to go home and she got herself a taxi. We got back to my mates house and cracked open another beer when the food turned up with a few other people, they had headed off in the cars before us. I remember watching them play a carnival game, then the next I was waking up on the sofa 9 in the morning with a duvet on me. So I rushed up and called a taxi, which didn't take long to get to me and I headed home, stopping off at the shop for some headache tablets as my head was killing, I got in and it was very quiet, so I went upstairs and the gf was in bed, she scowled at me then turned over so she didn't have to look at me, that's when I knew I was in the bad books, so I made a cuppa for us and had a shower, she told me she wasn't going to drink it though, so I went off up stairs and went on the computer for a little while. All day yesterday she would only make polite conversation with me it we were with company, otherwise it was the cold shoulder just like today, I can understand her being a bit miffed, but she didn't call all text me asking where I was or anything, which if she did I might have woken up to and gone home, a couple of peaceful days for me coming up I hope.
One of our friends has had a bit of a crap time with relationships, I'm not sure what goes wrong but something does, but she has a new man in her life now, he seems a nice chap, has got some money behind him and I hope them all the best, for some reason though someone had to point out the age difference, she is 26 and he is 49, if your happy though does age matter? I was thinking about it last night and I thought it didn't but then I'm not sure if I could go out with someone 10 years plus or minus my age, I'm not sure why, maybe I'll have to try it out.
So what are your thoughts on age difference?

There are far more noticeable 'age' differences between couples who are actually the same age. I think if you are 'mentally' in the same place, and you are both happy, what more could you possibly want?
I spent a lot of my 20's with people at least 15 years older than me. The thought of going out with a 20 year old when I was that age just filled me with dread. Some of them were that pathetic, I practically had to tie their shoe laces.
Some people actually live their lives argument free...and are intelligent enough to understand the importance of each person having their own space. Some people want the best for their partners...for them to reach their full potential and to be happy. Others try to smother their partners and control them.
I think that a partner could be 30 or 60...as long as they are right for you, then it's perfect.
Hi Miss
Thanks for your comments, I agree with you about the same age mentally and quite a few couples I see know seem to be on the same page, I guess the age problem comes in to play if the man or woman is just after someone pretty to hang off their arm but when it comes to conversation they have no idea what to talk about etc.
Like Elaine I think it depends where you both are mentally and emotionally. And also where you're at in terms of your stage of life. For instance - fitting in with all stereotypes of women in their 30s I'm afraid - at some point I am aware that if I want children, it'll have to happen sooner rather than later. So I would find it hard to consider a guy who was either past this point or too young for it. That being said, I have dated men my father's age, and my younger brother's age in the past - so long as you're both happy, who cares? x
Having never tried it I wouldn't know what the answer was but like the others said mentally it would have to be right.
Whats going on with the gf and you two breaking up?..x
