      (detail removed by Moderator) my son and I went to a party at my friend’s house. She’s joined the club and reached that significant age 😊

      Anyway what a difference in me!! There was no man there that I had to worry about. Didn’t have to continually look over my shoulder in case he was drinking too much and being inappropriate. No worries that I’d get his dagger stares in the back of my head if I wasn’t giving him the attention he demanded or talked to another man. I was relaxed and felt safe, confident and appreciated.

      All of this because he wasn’t there. I had a great night, interacted with old and new friends. All our children got on great too.

      I commented on how lovely my friend’s new kitchen was……she got it over (detail removed by Moderator) years ago so not that new. It just goes to show how I was taken away from friends I’ve known since I was a child. I hadn’t been in her house for a very long time. This was a bit of an eye opener for me.

      So glad I’ve got them all back 😃
