I fell in love with a beautiful silk and lace nightie. I wanted it. Beautiful, Victorian inspired. I looked at the price – ouch! I showed mum:
You can’t spend that kind of money on a nightie; you don’t even have a man to appreciate it”
My heart sunk momentarily with the reality, I then said, as I took it off the shelf:
"If you build it, he will come."

"If you appreciate yourself first, he will come along." I hope you bought it and you get to enjoy wearing it! :)
Thanks asankhaya!
cBabe, I have my moments of self appreciation... I did buy it and I'm longing to have the fun I want in it :-P
Chicky's right. It's the confidence that brings us a runnin'. Not always the right ones but it'll bring us a runnin'.
And your mother deserves a good slap for saying that. That's just all kinds of cruelty.
hell, a silk nightie sounds so comfortable, I'D like to wear it.
what? It sounds soft!
He'll come alright! w00t!
Sorry, I'm overtired. :P
Hahaha. Steph beat me to my comment. :-P
That was perhaps one of the most succinctly brilliant posts I've ever read...
Damn straight.
I exercise a similar ethos with moonboots to attract aliens
Confidence v mothers comments = me most days... What's your analysis on that one Dusty ;-)
Steph & Tim, I'm sure he will...
Thanks Audrey *squeals*
ultra god - how many pairs of moon boots do you have???
Dammit Steph beat me to the punch with the double entendre. Still, I gotta expect that LOL...
Hehe.. well you're half way there with that attitude. Love it! :)
You really want me to get all Freudian here? Well, it ain't gonna happen cause Dr Dusty doesn't believe that everything is mother's fault (although in this case I'll make an exception as it was just so wrong).
G_B Steph, RT - you're all on the same wavelength :-P
Thanks Angela!
Dusty - Nup, none of that Freudian bullshite about parental relationship influences - just throwin' it in..
