Confession - few weeks ago I went to a get together for a colleagues birthday. I like them but not enough to shell out £25 on a present, you get me? I bought cheap gin, poured some in a sterilised jam jar, added some edible flowers from the back of the cupboard, put a bow round and said I’d brewed it myself from a secret family recipe. Only used a third of the bottle, saved the leftovers for me and cost me about £3!!

I do this too!
I don't even tell my husband because how the hell do you explain it?
Same. I haven't told anyone in real life tbh
I quit smoking Dec 30th. Been fine till yesterday then started again just like that when I discovered a hidden pack of 20.
Thought at least I'd get a sore throat/cough or something but they're going down smooth as silk.
I'll have to pack it in again tomorrow.Honest.
I feel like "I've let myself down" or some other patronising guff.
It's not a very exciting confession I'll admit. If I have sex with a camel or something I'll confess on here to make amends.

You ever feel like some threads (thankfully not often) you’re just not welcome?! 
I've just realised I was groomed as a kid.
My mother sent me some old photos of me, I was chuckling at 11 year old me.. until I saw I had my ears pierced...
I was 16 when I got my ears pierced and 16 when i ended up having sex with a family friend 12 years older than me.. who had known me since I was about 7 and always given me so much time, singling me out at family events etc.. making me feel special, buying me pure perfume for my 15th birthday etc, (early 90s so it was so fancy)
but honestly I looked no more than 11 on that photo of 16 y/o me.
What a bleeping n.
I'd never ever tell anyone.

It's OK, thank you though xI'm so sorry that happened to you
It was just a funny realisation when I see how young I look on the photo. (I was a very late developer) what an absolute creep.
I've just shown my boyfriend the photo, asked how old I am on it, he said 10/11? I didn't tell him obviously, it's all a bit embarrassing
Yuck.
I wish my mum had died in hospital
I’m sorry you’ve had that realisation not to mention the experience.It's OK, thank you though x

In a similar vein but not the same… I really think our understanding of what constitutes abuse has come on so far and it’s jarring for us to realise what we dealt with.
It doesn’t make it ok what any of us went through but there just wasn’t the understanding. I don’t mean in situations of very clear abuse but the general older man vs younger woman. I think parents could be naïve. So many of them left school to work full time at 16 and were married if not parents by their late teens, we weren’t see as children in the same way as you would be now but we absolutely were.
I remember lying about my age to work behind a bar (so my fault?), everyone knew I was still in school but a bar full of men having me reach high or low items to jeer my body every shift, laughing over whether they wanted stuffing with their roast beef, commenting on every aspect of my body, basically propositioning me on a regular basis and besides the sexual stuff they’d never miss a chance to make me look stupid or make out I was a bimbo and so on….
I don’t even want to think about the times as an adult when, looking back, I’ve been too drunk to properly consent in the way you’d understand now.
Thank duck times have changed.

i don’t know if you can call it an affair but i had a full on something with someone online for six months during lockdown ,it only stopped because i found out i was pregnant by my husband .i never told the other person and he thinks i just stopped replying to him because he had admitted he’d started seeing someone irl,i think about him every single day and i stalk his socials but it’s something that would never have worked out for mostly my shallow reasons ,i think i might have told someone when i was drunk but i can’t remember and they’ve never said anything ,all my good sense tells me it would have been a disaster but i can’t let go it’s very isolating at times cos i can’t tell anyone without fear of judgement
I think about my ex boyfriend all the time, the one that got away so to speak. It brings me great sadness to be honest. We last saw each other about 13 years ago and I have such fond memories of him
I'm never said a word to anyone because I know how ridiculous it sounds. We've grown up, moved on and are different people now, so I'm pining over an idea of what could have been rather then anything real. I have a partner of 12 years and 2 children now so it really is not worth my time to even think about, but i still do, quite often.

See this terrifies me because what if my husband still thinks about his ex and we’ve been together 9 years
I dobbed everyone in at work for personalising hot desks and leaving mit all over the floors under the desks. Facilities cleared it all and every time I walk down the office I have a smug little smile to myself because I love a rule.
I actually think my tina smells fantastic
Good for you and your scented coochie!!
