I laughed out loud at this. Very good.

PP here. I am very insulted that none of you take seriously my statements about the power of True Love. Haven't you seen Dawson's Creek or Twilight? Anything is possible if your love is true.

Oh believe me, we take you VERY seriously.

But you are telling OP that wagering her whole life on this "what if" is okay. OP, there are other threads about red flags at the beginning. This is a red flag.

OMG people. The PP was very obviously being sarcastic.

Bump...Might need to bump it at the beginning of every new page since people don't read more than the current page of comments.

Where's my chubby Peter Pan with no money who treats me like a credit card, I mean queen?

You are being way too kind to call your fat bf a Peter Pan. A peter pan is someone who doesn't want to grow up, not a fat loser.

And, yes, I married a Peter Pan because I'm a female version. Neither of us never wanted to grow up and move to the suburbs. We stayed in the city, with one car, and one kid and had an au pair who helped us know what to do with her when she was little.

Choosing to live in the city and have one car doesn't make you a Peter Pan.

Don't marry potential.

Until he has his stuff together, don't marry or have kids with him.

Yes how bizarre.

Ha yes, mine was actually named Peter.

He was the smartest, warmest, funniest, most awesome alcoholic commitmentphobe I've ever met.

Do not regret dumping him for my husband and always think of him fondly.

DW is a peter pan - attitude was let the husbands do all the tough decisions and planning. I hate it but after a dozen years she is learning. However, decisions and planning are a skill easier learned when your younger.
Her mother does stupid stuff like call us at 2:00 AM because she cant remember her time zones while traveling. Asks to be picked up and taken to one of her kids houses during snow storms - then forgets her medicine and inconveniences everyone. Cant plan anything.

This could be ADHD, hope your kids don't have it, but it is hereditary.
Otherwise teach them to plan and have a basic sense of organization. Military could help too...

No DW just follows her mothers pattern. MIL has no confidence, no analitical skills etc
