Had a threesome

I’ve never been in love either and I don’t feel it necessary. Seems rather strange to me. Several men have said they were in love with me and I have been married twice and never divorced. I’m loving and kind was very pretty. I’ve had crushes and passions but not ‘in love’.

Never eaten a KFC or Nandos.

Owned an iron

This is so impressive Welbeck!
We've have always owned an iron and I have used one, albeit not for about 20 years.

Worn a liberty bodice.
Nor even heard of one till I came on here...
Still think it sounds like a contradiction in terms

Actually, it was called a libety bodice because it was made of flannel and was not stiffened in any way, thus giving the wearer a sense of freedom which was most definitely not a feature of the boned, pleated and cross-hatched corsets grown women wore when little girls were suddenly allowed liberty bodices instead of boned and tightly laced "stays".

How do you know that Purple pixie? We all marry for love but things alter for some, it doesn't mean it wasn't there initially. Loving someone is very different to being in love though. Loved my first but in love with second.
There are many things i haven't done but the one I regret, only one, is not going to live abroad for four months as I had planned.

I don't agree we all marry for love. Lots of other reasons including being swept up in wedding arrangements and feeling unable to cancel.

Been to New Zealand or Dubai and won't now.

I have never smoked or driven a car.
At one time a lot of my friends smoked weed but having a hatred of cigarettes I had “dope” cakes or as they are called today edibles instead.
That was in my dark and distant past and I haven’t touched the stuff for decades.
I really wish that I had learned to drive though.

I remember my elder sister having to wear one of these but I escaped. I don't know why.
I did however have to wear a light " corselette" when first I wore stockings , in order to hold them up.

Been glamorous. Hankerings, but no action.

Had a tattoo (nor will I)

Graceless Wed 17-Dec-25 20:01:14

Until the recent thread that featured liberty bodies I had never known anyone else who had worn one.
I've done several of the "naughty " things listed but I've never seen Star Wars.

NanKate Wed 17-Dec-25 21:27:27

I wore a liberty bodice in the early 1950s.
