Where have all the fit, interesting and available men gone (part 24)

[Remotew]

Hello!

I could do friends, I think, am not that lust consumed lol
he is local, next town

than maybe worth a try - what's to lose?

slow burn could be good

I will see how I feel in a week or so, not before
now I mainly feel stupid and cross with myself to have gone from being a happy sorted single to agonising over some man I hardly know
part of it was coming back to an empty house, you know how it is
The men who like me are fuglies. The men I like want 20s/30s babes. I will go back to my single and splendid stance I think, I was certainly happier thinking about what I had rather than what I was missing.
We were a poor match anyway, he came out of a tent looking clean and ironed.
speaking of which my replacement bed part, which I have waited in for all day, has not turned up. I think I have to have an ebay dispute. rubs hands ...

Ninah -
Agree with Mummy slow burn??

Lou at Sponge cake.

Thanks everyone for support. I'm ok, just very pissed -off-- vexed.

Can't do the hypens properly either.

Ohh, Am so excited. Yesterday I decided to be cool (who am I kidding!) and just go out with work and wait to see when sailor would contact me. Got a txt half way through dinner to say Hi and what was I doing?!

Made me go all embarassed in front of work colleagues who thought it all highly amusing

He works away in the week so no prospect of meeting but at least he is thinking about me

elasta re sailor. when are you seeing him next?

spent most of yesterday afternoon texting WM. managed to cheer him up in the end by talking about football. he v clearly has trust issues - he told me previously he never trusts anyone but he does (sort of) trust me....he is hard work sometimes though. and I still am no further forward in terms of knowing. Sigh.

oh well, back to work....have come in early to catch up and thus far done nothing!

Hi Sponge. IMO Wedding man MUST be keen as he is def hanging in there for you, but I agree the suspense / anticipation is killing.

Not seeing sailor until next week as I have my boys this weekend. He is supposed to be coming over for dinner, although at this rate he might not get any food - at least not until much later

Hey good news about sailor! sofa time?
wm is annoying me though, it must be driving you crazy hate, all these hints and uncertainties.
remember my problematic single bed? it is going back. Hmm. Is this some kind of divine intervention, a sign that my shagging days are not yet over? or shall i start shopping for another one ...

Dont think we are any where near the sofa - have only had a couple of dates but with daily txts / calls in between.

Aside from the lust element I dont really know him either, so am trying (and failing) not to get too excited about it all.

But he is incredibly fit and a bit of an action man, windsurfs all the time. I suspect he has got used to doing just what he wants to do though, so not sure he is up for a relationship that wont fit with his lifestyle.

Get a new bed Ninah, you never know when you might need it

it's a sign ninah it's a sing

elasta, vg news, may not be sofa time but definitely plan to cook something that can sit in the oven without spoling lol

sponge, remember you have nothing to prove, don't let WM's insecurities project on to you, you are fab and he'd be lucky to have you if it is what you want

Green Man man emailed again, thinking he might have seen me at Heathrow the other day, which I take as a positive sign that my face had stuck in his mind (although that he mistook someone else...)

god, it is like a switch has flicked in my head and I am really looking now, there was fit bloke in coffee queue this morn and I was wondering about him when he looked right at me and I went sooo red, talk about hot and bothered

if I don'[t get a snog soon it may spontaneously combust

ok, must slow typing down

corrections:

sign
spoiling
I

Ohh! have just been offered a babysitter for Friday!! Au pairs boyfriend. They are very keen for to get out and meet new man as they think I need a bit of a break - do I dare txt and suggest Friday night ????

yes, definitely, nothing ventured etc etc

ninah - im with mily - the bed problems are definitely a sign that a single bed is not the bed for you!

elasta - the marital sofa might be a way off BUT it does sound as though all going in the right direction...and he certainly sounds like the sort of active type you were looking for. will watch this space:)

mily - I feel your pain, its been ages since I had a snog as well. and the more time goes on, the more desperate i get and the urge to jump WM gets stronger . however I won't see him for at least 2-3 weeks now so no opportunity to do more than think about it in the near future!

elasta - just saw the update - have you sent the text? any reply?!

am excited on your behalf

Good afternoon everybody.

Elasta - text him!

MILY - I think that's quite deep him saying he thought he saw you, you must be on his mind

Sponge - WM omg is he going on holiday?

Ninah - get the double bed re-installed.

All very quiet here, nothing to report.

elasta text him
oh hell I forgot I still ordered a single mattress
off to unshop

Hey Ninah, do you have any other news to share??

monty - i'm guessing it's bad quiet rather than good quiet with you?...

WM isn't on holiday (he can't afford anything like that!) I won't see him as he isnt doing anything more on my house for a few weeks.

I expect I will still hear from him by phone or text, but it's not the same as seeing him though

OK I am a total headcase atm, I thought my results came out on Thurs but I was wrong they came out yesterday, by the time I found my pin card it was nearly midnight.
worth it though
A!!!!!!!!!!! in GCSE maths 5th time lucky

wow, wow, woohoo

fantastic news ninah

Ninah - Absolutely DELIGHTED for you!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
The girl done good!

Sponge - yes, I supposes the silence speaks volumes. Are you going to SCL's drinkies?
Can't you just bite the bullet and invite him for a snog meal at yours?? I think it's time.

Elasta - did you text him?

Have sent txt - suggested he call me later now have to wait and see

ninah - many congrats! well done - hope you will be celebrating appropriately :)

monty - am not sure I can make drinks on Fri as am being badgered into attending work thing same evening. As a manager (in name only) I feel somewhat obliged to go...so possibly may not make it :( will see what I can do

As to WM, I should bite the bullet but I can't. Silly really, as yesterday I was on the verge of offering to lend him some money to pay for a private consulation with his surgeon (long story) - but somehow that would be easier at the moment than actually asking him round to mine!
