Haven't seen one for a couple of weeks, although I admit I haven't really been looking...

but tonight I am tired, cold-ey, and have half an open bottle of rose, and half a bottle of red to see me through...

anyone with me?

'Whis' - a little known Geordie term for 'which' (not).

floosiemcwoosie · 08/07/2011 22:47

You don't have to make any decisions right now. If you want to be with him, then enjoy it on your own terms. If he can't repsect that then he is not the one for you

TheFlyingOnion · 08/07/2011 22:48

thats lovely, floosie

funnily enough possibly the reason I'm hesitant is that it sort of happened that way with my ex - I just knew, didn't question it. We got together while travelling, were joined at the hip immediately and after 2 weeks people were asking us how long we had been married. I was so sure... then he made me move 2500 miles away (after 4 years), overseas, and told me he didn't love me anymore...

so now I know, when you know, you don't really know....

ah so this is where the wariness is coming from

TheFlyingOnion · 08/07/2011 22:50

possibly, although that was 3 years ago and I really thought I was over it by now. Bastard still having knock-on effects!!

Frankly, I'm disappointed.

floosiemcwoosie · 08/07/2011 22:51

omg TFO that sounds awful! I felt like that when my 'soulmate' (not from the guardian!) told me he didn't want kids after we had been planning them for yonks.

My exH is now with my ex best friend!! seems they fell in love moments after i left!!

Can you try to slow it down and have fun with it?

LineRunner · 08/07/2011 22:54

Yes it does make you doubt your own judgement. Right with you there TFO But a bloke crying to 'prove' he's different isn't right and you're smart to be wary.

And god help me but I went back to Africa.

Spuddybean · 08/07/2011 22:55

i'm on my 5th beer Wink

floosiemcwoosie · 08/07/2011 22:55

fuck spuddy what a kick in the teeth

TheFlyingOnion · 08/07/2011 22:55

what a fucker, spuds!!

I just think, thank God we found out - could have wasted an awful lot more time!!

Trying to slow it - having limited success. Funnily enough if he then doesn't text I get the hump. He can't win!! Grin

Spuddybean · 08/07/2011 22:56

Cripes Linerunner! what's happening now? i'm still not drunk brave enough to go there!!

TheFlyingOnion · 08/07/2011 22:56

what the fuck are you doing in Africa, LineRunner?

There be dragons.... Grin

OP posts:
TheFlyingOnion · 08/07/2011 22:57

I don't think he he was crying to "prove" anything, LineRunner.

He's just a mentalist sensitive-soul musician... Unlike the usual corporate types I go for...

RockStockAndTwoOpenBottles · 08/07/2011 22:59

Very late to the pissed up thread, apologies. Saw it was you though my lovely Onion so felt I ought to come and say good evening and Happy Weekend. I have also been a lazy fuck and not read anything, if there is stuff on here I need to be reading please direct me. Otherwise, cheers, as usual I bring plenty of Cava to the MN gaggle.

I missed you!

Nah, nothing worth catching up on really, just shooting the breeze and me being all needy again about DP Grin

How was the UK?

tether send, at last some class

LineRunner · 08/07/2011 23:01

Get in there, my Pocohontii, to the Africa thread.

At least just read my two last pithy posts. OP asked 'when did I say that' and I cut and pasted it back to her (him?).

Should I stop now?

TheFlyingOnion · 08/07/2011 23:02

and STAY there!!
