I said it for years. I have until August 2nd next year to come up with a good excuse for being out of the country...

What changed my mind? No idea, just felt right one day.

same here. I always said I'd wait till 40.
Lasted till 26.
Then I said no kids till later.
Daughter arrived 2 weeks ago

Again, it just feels right......difficult to explain.

Thumbs up

LOL. Things I've said I'd never do, which have turned out to be, erm, inaccurate.

1. Said I'd never go contracting. Ditched my permie job for a contract 2 months later.

2. Said I'd never work smelly old London. I've now worked in the City for nearly 5 years.

3. Said I'd never buy one of those 'pig ugly imprezas'. I've had two, for a period of 6 years.

4. Said I'd never get married. 2nd anniversary coming up in December.

5. Said I'd never be into gardening. Now I spend many weekends in the garden, and enjoy it.

6. Said I'd never get into 'poncy extreme sports'. Then spent the next 2 years getting muddy on my Kona.

And it goes on, and on, and on....

I said I wont get married and I'm not married.
I said I wont have children until later (35) and that's what it's going to be.
I said I spank every scooby in special stages and that's how it is

A former work colleague got married after saying for ages she wouldn't. Reason given? She didn't know how to say no to him. Of course this is the same woman who hated children and pitied those with them. You guessed it, her second is on the way. Never say never!

I will be getting married next year at 32, having sworn that I would never marry (and having turned down two previous proposals from ex-girlfriends).
Reason for marrying this one? She's the only one that can make me laugh.

There are other reasons but we won't go into them here.......!!
