DD has to gone off for a sleepover and now I have five hours to wait for my nice new man to come for dinner and a sleepover of our own. First time we’ll have DTD (assuming we do) after three dates over the course of six weeks. I’m excited and a bit nervous!

What shall I do to pass the time? I’m thinking… a bit of meal prep, nice bath, maybe a preparatory glass of wine in a couple of hours. I have the dress chosen and out of the wardrobe. It’s a long time to wait!

...and line them up.in your preferred sequence, e.g. perhaps 'glow-in-the-dark' first and ending with the 'nobbly' ones?

I just remembered a sketch with Adrian Edmondson and Rik Mayall buying condoms... "Can't go wrong with cheese and onion flavour, everyone likes that".

Hide all the valuables as you are letting a virtual stranger stay over in the house you share with your child?

Is "hide the valuables" a euphemism?

halava · 28/09/2024 14:23

Condoms and a cocktail.

Have a great night, I remember very clearly a very steamy evening with Barry White in the late 1970’s, still makes me blush every time I hear Barry White being played.

Change the bed linen, put clean towels in the bathroom.

Last time I DTD for the first time I was a bit shy about being naked at 50 so we had a bikini party - just me & him - though of course he wasn't wearing a bikini....

he was sporting a pair of budgie smugglers that he proudly told me he'd had since the late 70's. 😳

Give over, for goodness sake.

Get some sleep as hopefully you won't get any rest through the night 😉😄

This.
Ugh, if my husband passed away or any other reason for him not being around, I definitely wouldn't let anyone touch me again, let alone have them in my home.
Otherwise, OP, enjoy yourself!

Blimey. It might come as a surprise but some of us actually love sex. The idea of being celibate actually terrifies me.

See I can’t even type right remembering the night, but no it wasn’t actually with Barry White.

Right, I’ve called 111 just to get the police on standby. I have a mate who knows a guy who works the door at a snooker club. So he’s going to park outside. I’ve dropped all my jewellery off at my mum’s and bade her a tearful farewell. And I’ve superglued the good crockery to the base of the cupboard. Now I know it’s going to be a great evening.

Love this hope you have a great time

Thank you. I guess there are plusses to my evening to come, but on the other hand I have to clean the house, beautify myself, cook a meal that is filling and tasty but won’t leave me bloated and smelling of it, pick a wine that makes me seem sophisticated (I am not in any way), change the sheets, hope DD doesn’t have to come home early for some reason, hope he’s good in bed, hope there’s no awkwardness before, during or after, and get him out by 9am!
To be honest I wonder if I should just settle down with a book and send him to you!

Always a New Zealand white (Sauvignon) maybe red too if you don’t know his preference.
