Kicking this off.

Hi BeautnotMag, 3rd date sounding promising and can see you are keeping your options open.

monty i feel your pain on the tooth thing

i have been referred to a special clinic for mine cos they couldnt touch my tooth even pumped full of local without me hitting the roof, so i have to go to a sedation clinic

funny thing is until i went about another tooth i didnt know anything was wrong with this one, and it still doesnt hurt day to day, but it has to come out i am told

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 22:36

Not related to this thread at all, but Dave Gorman just tweeted to me! :o I am almost as excited as when Chris from doodle do spoke to me on here Blush

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 22:37

I have a tooth waiting to come out. The last one she tried to do she cocked up and I am now terrified. So I am just taking painkillers.

evening all

he brought me flowers Blush

BeauticianNotMagician · 04/10/2010 23:14

Mily-Wow and did you need to use them to hit him or did it go well

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 23:16

MORE!!!

BeauticianNotMagician · 04/10/2010 23:17

Details I've stayed up past my bedtime just in case you posted ha ha.

mummyilubyou · 04/10/2010 23:18

it went well. He was charming in a non-smarmy way, he was 5'11" as promised (sorry, I just don't dig short blokes...), he was funny and sweet, he insisted on paying for dinner, but in a way that my guardian-reading feminist soul didn't get affronted....

but no spark to speak of, though he smelled very nice when we hugged/cheek kissed goodbye

but I think he could be a grower

gto home 45 mins ago but had to spill all to nanny - totally like having a combination of my mum and best friend sitting up waiting for me Grin

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 23:19

:o:o:o

mummyilubyou · 04/10/2010 23:19

I am worried he has decided I am the one though, which maybe means I should back off gracefully now.....

mummyilubyou · 04/10/2010 23:20

I haven't been given flowers since dd2 was born.......

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 23:20

hmmm. Um. Hmmmm

no really flame, ta muchly Grin

he has a gorgeous (in pics) springer spaniel, he rides, he kept looking at me in a way that made me go pink

god I am crap at this

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 23:24

Go with it for a while :) See if he grows.

BeauticianNotMagician · 04/10/2010 23:26

Mily Ooh it sounds like you had a good evening though.I wouldn't worry if he thinks you're the one and you aren't sure yet.Men need to understand a date is a date no matter if you have met them online or in rl.When i first came on here the first guy was really off with me when i told him i wouldn't be seeing him again but i realised that's his problem not mine i didn't commit to anything.

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 23:27

I am all restless tonight.

Missing XH, and at the same time trying to work out if the magic could ever appear with Carrot.

Why do I want a bloody man?!

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 23:29

Oh and I am trying to decide about whether I should carry on the whole Rubiks thing as I'm not convinced in photos, but I hate how I look in photos so I am trying not to judge too much. He's not bad, just not "me" iyswim

BeauticianNotMagician · 04/10/2010 23:30

It's all about having fun.Oh and i forgot Grin Grin Grin

mummyilubyou · 04/10/2010 23:31

glad you 2 are still up

I kept thinking when I was chatting to nanny about tomorrow's meals, guitar practice etc (once she had got the gist of the evening from me Wink), I gotta tell the laydees what happened Grin

It was a lovely evening

and now I must go to bed, for tomorrow morning I have 4 and a half hours of psychometric testing to endure to see if I am suitable Hmm for the next level of seniory where I work........

am looking forward to checking in in the evening and seeing what the gang make of this eve

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 23:31

Ooh fun day ahead for you then Confused

mummyilubyou · 04/10/2010 23:33

Flame, check Rubiks out in the flesh for sure

with carrot, it'll figure itself out

BNM Envy

by the way, , have got sleepover sorted for DDs on 12th Nov so am definitely going to be there and with no curfew Grin

BeauticianNotMagician · 04/10/2010 23:34

Flame I know it is hard i have conflicting emotions over DG i don't want to like someone this much because that's when it all gets complicated.Though i think i've only once had the butterflies before him.

Don't take too much notice of pictures i always find they can look quite different in rl.I certainly look different in pictures.Not photogenic at all and DGs pics really didn't do him justice.

Flamesparrow · 04/10/2010 23:34

Was it your place I was crashing if I can make it?
