    Nonsense, I'm afraid. They've bantered you off. You're looking at it the wrong way. It sounds like in your formative years, it's women that taught you how to be a man. I'll bet you were even present at your kid's birth?

    If the bird you've just knocked up believes you find her vile, or merely even anything less than as attractive as ever, if not even more so, she will never, ever forgive you for this betrayal (she believes she is doing you a favour, carrying your child). Which means bairns #2, #3 and so on, you know, an actual family, likely won't happen. In fact, the marriage/partnership is, to all intents and purposes, dead.

    Now, the dolly in this situation is vulnerable and needs support and protection so the thing will perhaps last for a bit, but only until she gets her breath back. Then, one way or another, officially or unofficially, there will be a break-up. At the very least an irreparable, spiritual one.

    And from there, society and civilisation and all that sort of thing dies.

    Yes, it was a strategic error to declare that you would never marry her. Everything from that point is her revenge.

    You ought to at least have allowed hope to spring eternal, as the man said, especially if you're actually going to hang around.

    She has precisely no interest in me whatsoever. She just needs money, help and company. She makes this very obvious, to the point of openly stating this is what she wants, and is then stunned when I tell her that it's never going to happen, and why.

    It is becoming obvious that the house situation needs resolving sooner rather than later. I am never going to be truly free of her until it is sold.

    Ha! Ladykillers by Lush is just coming up on my playlist. I bet you think it's about you.

    On a more serious note, or chord even - Magnapop, especially their second album (produced by Bob Mould) have a great sound and some good choons.

    All I said was that I didn't like Joni Mitchell or Kate bush. And it's true, I don't. When I mentioned the women I did like (Amy wine house, the fleetwood mac with the birds in it, a bit of blondie, maybe even Florence) they went mental.....

    At some point I did apparently suggest that I wouldn't stand for women in music but that was after they went after me

    I had good reasons for not getting married.

    1. She didn't actually want to
    2. We hated each other
    3. I didn't want to
    4. Money
    5. **** that!

    Yes. Very good, but the point is, you don't tell her all that. That's how chaps end up getting strangled in their sleep or poisoned, with the bird getting off scot-free.

    1. Just so. That's what they all say. It's you that's supposed to want to.
    2. Irrelevant, m'lud.
    3 See: #1.
    4. See: #2
    5. You say you were together for ten years so what difference would it make? What difference would it make if it were twenty years? Or forty

    I never got the appeal of Kate Bush. She gave me the creeps. Weird, spiky dancing, wobbly, shrieky voice and scary eyes. Not into Joni Mitchell either but I don't have a list of reasons. Maybe something about whining about wanting a Mercedes Benz.

    When you said you didn't like them did you use diplomatic language about taste or did you say they were shít and anyone who likes them is an idiot?
