I joined match on boxing day. Came home from a family party and a comment from my sister how about maybe next year i might have somone to spend it with.

Ive done online dating in the past, with no sucess, but only on free sights.

Winked at this guy, he emailed back. Good 4 to 5 emails, lots of nice banter, friendly, it just flowed.

He said he didnt know if it was the done thing, but was going to give me his number. Bit of a text a thon yesterday. Hes really nice. In a ' seems totally on the same page' thing. we have lots in common too.

He asked me out for coffee, o said yes, after new year, meaning the next weekend, but he came back and said how about monday. So, like in a few days.

AFter all the texting he asked if he could call me tomorrow ( ie, today) and if i let him know when would be the best time. Unfortunatley im out all this evening.

But he did say that he was looking forward to meeting me.

No sex or sleezy comments, nothing like that at all, which is a refreshing, just some nice, intelligent flirtying.

Im a little excited.

Hes also divorced, has a child who he sees often, so he understands how it is when you have children and hes not into just getting drunk.

So, day time coffee date, jeans, biker boots and black thin ( slightly see though, but with a vest top underneath) jumper.

Have fun take it easy and good luck!

That's great! Enjoy it.

I've joined GU and been enjoying the 'cyber' attention. I know what you mean about it being refreshing not to have the sleaze or sex talk from someone. One message and 'what are you wearing' and I'm instantly turned off. And the guy with the foot fetish.....there are definitely some weird people out there. But also at the moment talking to a lovely chap and hoping to meet up.

So, stay safe, make sure someone knows where you are and enjoy meeting your new chap!! :)

I will be myself.

Yeah, ive had a shoe fetish person too. But thats another story!!!

And the one thats got nothing to say other than ' do you want to ask me anything' - er... nope!!!

or the one that just talks about drinking all the time and assumed i lived with my parents becuase im single. WTF??!?!?!?!?

But, this one seems nice, and normal.

fingers crossed.
