Shall I change my name???

[debbz1969]

I'm upset....
On another thread, someone has just said that I am nearly 40..... OK, I AM, but I really don't want to be reminded of the fact. I'm dreading it actually.
But I suppose I am advertising the fact with my name. Shall I change it? If so any suggestions and how do I do it?
Please don't be mean....... (you know who I'm referring to)

[dot.hawkes]

it's no good hiding from reality debbz, just carry on, someone else will be along in a bit to make fun of something else,

[daniela31]

Why should anyone be mean to you about being nearly forty!
most on here have already gone past that. It's nothing to fear, it's just another number that's all.
Anyway, isn't life supposed to begin at forty?
:-)

Nothing wrong with being 40 debbz - imagine how you're going to feel then when you're nearly 50?! (As I will be in just under 4 years' time - aaahhh). Now that IS scary!

You are in your prime love - 40 is the new 30 - enjoy it. I damn well am!

[curlyfilm]

ladies in the 40's are at their most attractive age!!!!

look forward too it !!!!!!!!!!!!

[funnygirl]

Wait until you get to my age. In 4 years time I will be 60 and that is frightening!!!!

So we've all been there, 40, 50 whatever and it's nothing!!

Life just goes on, maybe getting better!!!

[joggerjayne]

Don't fight it, debbz. Be proud of it.

Hey, I'm 42.

I feel great, and I think I look good.

I'm fit. I keep myself in great shape.

I feel sexy.

I'm independant (okay, okay ... on the shelf!)

I like my job, and I earn quite a lot.

I enjoy my life.

I have loads of proper, loyal friends.

I'm confident in myself.

I am ... my own woman.

I'm trying new experiences (not too much detail there!).

I'm 40+ and loving it.

Debbz ... 40+ is FAB !!!

[donegal]

[joggerjayne]

Oooh ... all these people posted while I was typing !!

[debbz1969]

Thanks everyone (except donegal) x x x

[MsEVP]

Can I get my Werthers back-dated, please? If so, when can I expect to receive my 31 bags? Thank you.

Cheer up, as Dani says life really does begin at 40. It did for me!

[Sgt.Rock]

Jayne - you forgot to add that you are very modest!!

[joggerjayne]

Good for you Debbz.

Look at yourself in the mirror ...

... punch the air, and shout

... YAAAAYYYY ME !!!

[debbz1969]

Hey nothing wrong with JJ - she sounds like an inspiration. If I was the other way inclined I think I'd fancy her myself!!!!!!!!!

[curlyfilm]

[joggerjayne]

Sgt. Rock ...

Modesty is for shy, retiring 20 year olds.

We older girls are fun, fab and forty plus.

Live with it, Rocky !!
