Its with a bloke I used to have a very physical relationship with but thats all it ever was and it ended when I got with my exp and had my son.

We have always stayed friends but the other day he told me he wants to find the one and settle down then he asked me out!!!!!

Im PANICING completely I always liked him but im scared, we havent seen eachother for 2 years

What will I do or talk about I'm so out of practice

wouldnt worry about what to talk about it will come naturally and he will probably be as scared as you! sounds like an ideal first date IMO. at least you already know this bloke and you know hes not a weirdo, gay etc lol

sounds like your previous erm 'realationship' was enjoyable so whos to say it wont be this time round? understand the panic but I bet your a little excited too

I'm very excited, perhaps too much I dont want to have a big let down comin my way. We've been speaking via text all day, mainly about the shenanigans we used to get up to but I explained to him that Im not interested in a sexual relationship and nothing else. he said he'd love us to spend some time together with my ds and his and see how it goes

pretty big deal for me

sounds like you have the right attitude FrostyTheSnowgirl you have been honest with him from the beggining which is always good.

he sounds like a decent sort of bloke too (from what you say) if he was just after sex he would have run a mile when you said that wasnt what you wanted.

good luck to you - take it slowly and see what happens

Hmm I may have broken my word, we had a bit of a steamy text session this morning after all the reminiscing
