I hope this epiphany helps you choose your next Lady wisely, one who wants more of the same things you do.

Oh, the lass I would like for my next Lady is perfect. She likes everything that I do, is intelligent, funny, beautiful and one of my best friends.

Unfortunately some other bloke beat me to it. Someone whom I helped set her up with whilst I was with my former Lady.

I guess irony can be pretty ironic sometimes :D.


Some heartwarming stories here. I definitely don't want kids yet, but you lot are making me more eager.

I've just realised something. I want to have kids.
Similar thing happened to me today. I have never wanted kids. Didn't like to be around kids even when I was a kid.

Today, I had lunch with one of my nurses who is on maternity leave. The baby's 15 days old today. He is precious. Just looking down into that sleepy little face made me feel something in my heart I have never felt before. Then again, maybe it's my clock beginning to tick.

I didn't want to have kids with my husband. I think I knew instinctively we would stay together forever. But now, who knows?
 
I think I've always known I want kids "some time in the future". It's not really a longing as such (yet), more something I'm pretty sure I will have. I enjoy kids, but don't feel that I want one "right now". In all honesty, the way my life looks right now I probably won't have a kid for another 8 years. Besides, I'm terrified of the whole giving birth thing. If I can have my way I'll have a cesarian (sp?). But that's just how I feel right now and in theory...

My current focuses is getting a job, being able to afford moving to my own place, hopefully meet a man and get married. THEN a kid can come into play.
So, for now I'm enjoying dealing with the kids at school and not having to bring them home with me... :D


For me I guess my biggest epihanies so far had to do with love.
Guys never noticed me throughout my teens. They saw me as the girl-next-door and a friend. Nothing else. I got used to telling a guy I liked him and being given the "I like you as a friend" - speech. Then I went to London for Uni and guys suddenly took notice of me. That was a mini-epihany to me. Oh my God, men actually found me attractive!

Now, I've always had the personality trait that I get easily bored. When I get into a hobby or something I give it 120%, then after a while I get bored with it. During my teens I always was worried that'd be how I might feel about boys. And I did have a hard time thinking of myself in the role of "the girlfriend". So, my second epihany was when it one day hit me "I'm a girlfriend". LOL

The third and biggest epihany happened with my third boyfriend. One day I just felt that "THIS is the man I'd like to spend my life with." For the first time in my life I thought in terms of moving in together, marriage and kids. I haven't felt that way about anyone else to this day.
