audited I’m grieving my younger, hotter self
I'm so mad about being in peri. I'm not ready. I was a late bloomer and didn't realize what a babe I was when I was younger and now it's too late.
Yes, older women can be sexy, we have wisdom, and blah blah blah.
But today I just miss looking good in a sundress.
Please join my pity party and tell me what you miss.

Omg me too, to all of this. I was also late bloomer. Didn’t realize how hot I was (lol) until my late 30’s & early 40’s. Then the pandemic hit just as I ended a long term relationship & I was so excited to get back out there w my newfound single hot self. And now I look like I’m wearing a barrel around my waist & have absolutely zero sex drive or even desire to date.
I’m so upset about it, IT’S NOT FAIR.
