and again this weekend.
i drove one of my married schoolfriends home after a bbq the week before. he and the new wife are buying a house out in the suburbs and will be moving from zone 1 to waaaay out beyond zone 6. and he actually said to me whilst talking about living in central london: "swipe, this is a beautiful sports car. but when are you going to GROW UP?"
i was fucking outraged. what am i supposed to put in my car, my invisible child in its make-believe car seat?? so i bit my lip for a minute or two and then started talking about the long commute and how it impacted on your time together and how it was funny that everyone we know who grew up on the outskirts of london has divorced parents, whereas everyone who grew up in cheshire or somewhere less pressured had parents who were still together...
that shut him right up.

i was really incensed - ok so maybe he thinks i need to settle down a bit instead of going out so much/with so many different people - but i think his life is pretty damn chew your own arm off boring! however, i didn't say that, because i am not rude and i didn't want to hurt his feelings! raaargh!!!

i suspect that fear of the move and becoming settled down was at the root of his comment in the first place.
