dating.

so my parents recently separated (april) and just the other day, my mum tells me she has created an online profile on a matchmaking website. what?!

my mum is 64 years old and bored, apparently. or at least that's what she says. if i were to term it, i'd probably term it as lonely more than bored, but who am i? her daughter, that's who. haha.

her daughter who was asked to post her mother's "best photo" up on these sites. did her daughter come through on the task? you bet.

see, my parents split didn't affect me personally. i don't have any resentment, bitterness, [insert divorce related emotion here]. i just don't. i don't think they were good together and i think they're better off apart.

i do, however, feel bad for my father because he will never take the initiative to date again and he will also never learn how to cook: two things i'd have for him if i had my way. but again, who am i to want these things. he should be wanting these things himself.

anyway, it tickles me that my mum is dating again, after 30 years. good for her.
