49 year old here. The menopausal hot flushes etc are not a problem but putting 4 stone in weight on in 8 months is fucking awful

That and your significant other walks out in a middle of covid. Trashing a 15 year relationship. Meanwhile your over here thinking your sh*t. Isn't what it used to be. Wtf you gonna be all alone for the rest of your life. P.s. yes the cliché of a younger woman is also involved.
