What is this shred thing people talk about?

Matt is soooo one of my best bad ideas ever. :o I have now met him properly. That is one of the best arses I have ever felt seen. If it wasn't for him coming down with my bug (poor guy looked horrendous and swears blind it isn't drugs... he was so open about them that i believe him) there is no way he would have gone home Blush

Flame · 27/01/2011 01:27

(and yes.... just fun... no involvement etc)

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 09:58

Sponge new job sounds great.I think it will be worth it just for the possibility of working from home.Good luck.

Flame you do make me laugh.Hopefully Matt comes back sometime soon so you can finish what you started Grin

Flame · 27/01/2011 10:32

His arse really is amazing...

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 11:41

Ahh i know some of you are still single and have been for a while.Can i just add i was for four years.But i really miss DG its awful i now actually have a boyfriend but he is up north and im stuck here.Feeling sorry for myself.

tookoolforskool · 27/01/2011 13:21

ah, sorry your missing him, whens he back?

Ive never had ( which is a bit weird) a relationship with someone close by. All my relationships ended up being long distance and i was married to someone in the forces, so he was often away for months and months and months. Its rare i miss people and its maybe not helped my personal space issues ( as in i like a lot of it)

Only person ive ever missed is mr big. meh.

flame - lol.

Nothing new or exciting to report. Bar stardust is bring rum and twister with him monday.

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 13:54

We wont be seeing each other again until the 5th of feb.He is living up there.

Nothing interesting haha rum and twister sounds likely to turn very interesting.

tookoolforskool · 27/01/2011 14:00

bloody well hope so.
i shall wack the heating up too.....

haha - its a very classy seduction plan isnt it!!!

the 5th of feb is only a few days away, lol. bless you. ( says my cold hardend heart from years spent on my own, even when i was bloody well married )

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 14:19

Hahaha that sounds like a plan tookool.

The 5th is a whole week away you know.When i was with my ex i may as well have been single he used the house as a hotel.He was usually out drinking or staying with his other woman.Suprised he didn't put me off for life.

Forgot to tell everyone i told exp yesterday that we are moving to Leicester.He went mad at first and called me every name under the sun but he has been quiet since.Maybe its the calm before the storm.I wont be cracking open the champagene just yet.

Hatesponge · 27/01/2011 14:29

Tookool, Grin re rum, twister and heating set to max!

I'm also someone who likes space, though that's probably because it's what i'm used to, I've only lived with one man (the evil Ex) and most of the time I was living with him I wished he wasn't there.....however it does worry me that after nearly 3 years of living on my own I've become too intolerant to ever live with anyone again!

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 14:50

Is there someone on here with the initial N.My facebook keeps telling me to add you and noticed that its all mnetters in common.

AArgghh may not be seeing DG on 5th now.He is going to be a little upset as had booked hotel we were going out for a family celebration in london.Mum cancelled on me Sad

elastamum · 27/01/2011 15:33

Hi All,

Another intolerant singleton here!

After 3 yrs, wouldnt mind a BF but just cant imagine ever sharing my home with another man full time Shock

tookoolforskool · 27/01/2011 15:43

im NM.

im not sure id like to live with another man ever.
But like i said, even when i was married he was mostly not there. i think one year i only saw him for 6 weeks or something. Plus we would also go months without speaking on the phone. So daily contact just seems a bit odd too me. And since i was with him from the grand dage of 20, i cant really rememeber much before then. Other than my fiance before him, he was a chef and moved a lot too....

So - i kind of think 6 days away is not that far, but its relative isnt it. 6 compared to 200 is nothing. but if you used to seeing each other every day, then it might be a long time.

the FB brought an over night bag ( honeslty, what man brings and overnight bag) once. It was the last time i saw him. lol

Remotew · 27/01/2011 15:44

The only time I can imagine living with someone is when I am childfree which isn't that far off. I tried living with someone once when DD was around 9, kept getting fed up and asking him to leave, then back together.

If I ever do then he will have to be fully house trained, all the chores split 50/50 etc.

lilacisinlove · 27/01/2011 16:45

It's not even a year since I actually moved out, although separated for two years now. I had to work incredibly hard for my freedom and put up with all sorts of sh*te to get where I am now. I never thought I'd contemplate living with someone else, not for years and years at least. Yet here I am, I met TLOML and every day we don't see each other is torture...and there are a lot of those! The girls still don't know so he only comes here when they are at dad's. Some weeks that means I don't see him from early Sat AM until Thurs evening. We're both struggling with that but know the girls need to be ready to cope with it all.

eve, he is fully house trained though, so at least when we do reach that stage I have that to look forward to! ExH didn't lift a finger if he could help it (in fact wrote on his response to my UB petition that he had to do his own ironing - we both work full time Hmm). TLOML already makes me a cuppa while I'm in the shower, and when I come out he's made the bed. He's great at tidying up after dinner too. Lots to look forward to...

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 17:31

Ill add you then tookool if you dont mind.At first i thought you were one of DGs relatives(you will see what i mean)

I think i'm only missing DG so much because we can't really see each other.However, i do think i'm very lucky as he has a job which means he will be working away a lot so i will get plenty of space but i think it will feel better knowing that eventually he is coming home if you see what i mean.I'm used to being alone and do rather like my own company having been single for so long.

tookoolforskool · 27/01/2011 17:37

ha. i can see what you mean. how odd is that???
lol

a bit of space can be good. its good that you miss him. Bar the first year i never missed my ex husband. which , really, cant be a good thing can it.

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 17:42

I know very random.I kept thinking hmm so a pretty redhead(he loves red heads) with the same name that i haven't been told about keeps popping up on my screen whats going on.
Have to say am very Envy of the red hair wish i could pull that look off.

tookoolforskool · 27/01/2011 17:57

Thanks.. and sorry for making you wonder what was going on. I can confirm I do not know him . Lol.
The red hair is going monday.... sadly :( its so high maintenance and Ive had it about 9 months.

( disclaimer... I shall change my mind 100 times between now and Monday)

Flame · 27/01/2011 18:03

Why can't I take in any of this thread today???

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 18:12

Does it fade really quickly?I bet its really expensive to maintain.

Flame Ummm just a thought but maybe because you are too busy thinking about someones arse lol

Flame · 27/01/2011 18:14

Red always faded quickly when I did it.

Well yes, that is a fairly constant thought. No idea when/if I will get to see it again...

BeauticianNotMagician · 27/01/2011 18:24

Always good to cop a feel.Im sure you will see him again or rather a bit of him.

I would love to dye my hair dark but my eyes are one strange deep blue/black colour and my skin pale so i dont think it would suit me.Well i know it wont i have tried before no matter what colour i have put on it comes out black.

Remotew · 27/01/2011 18:25

Started a thread in chat about my supermarket shop today, if anyone wants to have a look Grin.

Flame · 27/01/2011 18:29

Ooh will go look.

Wish he wasn't such a flake or I would just demand him back tonight. Would prob even cancel Brackets for a full interrupted night but can't be sure he'd show so not wasting an evening!

Poor Brackets, lovely lovely guy, balanced, intelligent... but the spark (and arse) so much less so....
