I was in a committed relationship for 20 years, having settled down very young. Throughout that time, I gave it my all—my loyalty, time, and full effort. But then I came to realise that the relationship had grown stale or just nonexistent. There's no laughter, no fun, and very little that connected us anymore so we separated. I missed feeling like myself—laughing, having fun, and being more than just a cook, cleaner, mother, and everything else in between. I'm extremely independent, patient, and determined (some might say too determined at times lol). I like things my way and I’m more than capable of looking after myself. But lately, I’ve come to realise it might be nice to know what it feels like to be cared for or desired, even just a little. I’m quite shy at first, but once I open up, I definitely have a cheeky side. I value honesty above all—if you have to lie to impress me then we're not meant to be xxx
