To have asked my hairdresser on a date?

[auldspinster]

Had my hair done on Saturday - we were talking sex; relationships and children and we were bemoaning how difficult it is to meet people at our age (we're both 41) and what we missed as single people.

I've always found him attractive and we always have masses to talk about (my frightwig takes about an hour to cut and dry) and I thought afterwards, fuck it, life's too short.

He has a website for a semi professional thing he does on the side so I emailed through it, suggesting we meet for a coffee. That was at lunchtime, am I insane?

Short back and sides!

Cannot believe you're 41. I'm 27 and you look similar in age to me!

I've got a fair bit of grey hair and a decolletage that's a bit on the crepey side paul

I am 100% invested in this thread and that never happens with me!

Nah natural, he doesn't have a look that screams hairdresser.

My approach to grey is to ignore it, my hair is usually curvier than in the pics which makes it less noticeable, can't be arsed to dye it.

Curvier? Curlier more like.

Good for u op let us know the outcome

Sorry, I got distracted at "WW1 poet" and found it hard to concentrate after that.
But agree, 1.you don't look 41.

1. He is good at fringes.

I'll go back to sighing over the phrase "WW1 poet" now.

Must blow the dust off my condom stash and check they're still in date.

Be bad if they had " use by 1918" on them.

Vix he's more Wilfred Owen than Rupert Brooke but without the middle parting and homosexuality.

The last time I had sex was around 1918. He said he didn't miss the physical side, I said I bloody do. But he's hardly gonna say he's gagging for a shagging is he?

Hey, OP, you might want to ask MNHQ to delete your posts with your photo on - with the DM sniffing around you can't afford to make yourself public.

Fingers crossed for you! Hope he says yes

Sorted! Any lurking DM 'journos' should take a good hard look at themselves then get tae fuck.

Too late Spinster!!

Are you really 41, OP? You look bloody good for it if you are . I'm 23 and you look younger than I do!

I would wait a week before asking at salon.

Also good luck! You look great as well, fat younger than 41!

Ha! Place marking too. I'll resist the urge to stalk round the (Charlie Miller?) branches looking enquiringly at all the deep and meaningful looking types.

Best of luck OP, and yes- fab hair!

My ego is getting a fabulous boost here, thanks all!

I'll just leave a message saying I remembered something that he might be interested in and can he call me back, but yes I'll hang fire until the week has passed.

Wonky I couldn't possibly comment !

So, Charlie Miller, you say? My friend worked there for five years and knows all branch staff. Not that I would ever snoop in such a blatant manner, of course

Without a centre parting and homosexuality always a plus. *imagines Monty Clift without the S+M habits and the gayness...
