I may never get to own a kitten.

I've always wanted a kitten but have adopted adult rescue cats instead.

By the time I'm in a position to get a new cat, I may be too old to get a kitten.

That whilst I've aged physically I still haven't mentally. Probably never will.

Someone guessed my age as 38 at a bar in Cardiff on Friday (I wish) and someone else told me I looked like Gareth Thomas. I'll take that any day of the week.

But yeah. Bodies change. That's life and you can't change it.

The good thing is.....it happens to everyone.

I’m sure that isn't true! Everyone knows men get better looking with age !

For me the realisation was that the number really does matter, more so than anything else and there’s nothing you can do about that but accept it & go with it, into it, use it to your advantage.

I've always had rescue cats but 6 months ago I adopted a maine coon kitten while she's very cute and funny I miss the calmness of my old girl. This curtain destroying, 3am toe biting psychopath will be the death of me

I'm probably not going to get my happily ever after with someone. I'm not going to have the wedding dress of my dreams or the man eagerly awaiting my arrival in it.

I'm most likely not going to find my soul mate.

I am also learning that happy ever after comes in many forms and that a relationship isn't the only way

I think my mum was 56 when she met her second husband and they're still blissfully happy. She never tried online dating though. That's enough to make anyone give up hope.

I've never tried it either but from what I hear I'd probably give up hope too.
