Where have all the fit, interesting and available men gone (part 30)

[lilacisinlove]

Yay! I did it again!

whooh! got home to a cheque for £70 and my passport is ready, so i'm away to Warsaw for work next week (thank you paternal grandparents!)to be driven around in a british embassy car for a couple of days.

feel a bit more important now! :)

You've missed Smurf? Smurf has been the past month, well started talking a month ago, met him 3 weeks ago. Been out a couple of times, been "in" much more . Starting to fall for him, but not really sure how he feels about me - when we are together he is very much "in it" iyswim, but when we are apart he is a nightmare and so jokey that it is hard to tell. Picture Barney from how i met your mother for his personality (if that is any help to any of you), but without the hordes of women. Thought he was off with me all week, but it turns out it was family stuff, which obv he now won't go into as he did the same with everything and deflected with a joke. He tends to open up more in person, so hoping I will get to see him over the weekend - dunno though, he wants to go be angry for a bit.

have ahd a lot on my mind lately sorry flame.
yes i 'know' who barney is. heop fully you'll get to see him

6months for me and vimes tomorrow

Lol it was more that I feel like I spend my time whinging on here lots so you must all be sick of my people

6 months really?!

yep

he's not one for dates tho lol
he's at work from 8 til 4 so i'm the ormantic one and cooking him a meal - he always cooks for me even when he's been at work all day

as in remembering 'important' ones lol

6 months today

Happy anniversary aurora and vimes

Where's that daffodil gone? I was going to give you a bouquet!

yay aurora

I have to take my mum to get her dog put down today. :( Smurf still being odd. i give up. I can't be doing with games today. I just want someone to go for a drink with.

Fabulous. For some reason my income support hasn't gone in.

happy anniversay aurora :)

Sorry flame, today isnt going to be a good day., thinking of you and your mum.

Have reached the not spoken to mr big for one week milestone. go me!

Pub quiz was most excellent fun. AND at the half way mark we were winning. ( so fuck you mr knob at the other table making the sarky comment that we must watch a lot of tv because we got the logos and strap lines round 100%..... we kicked your arse on all rounds.. and you have poor taste in clothes. a football shirt does not look good...)
anyway, i digress. There is the most lovely man/boy there. We went there as a work thing at xmas and i noticed him then, and then we have been for a few lunches... and seen him then.. and he was there tonight.. and he did come over when i was talking to the landlady and he did this whole hands reaching up on the top of the bar stretch thing and i saw his pants!! ( could not help but look)
But every time im there its with work. and hes working there... so we havent said more than hi and thanks.. or do you want ice...
There is a classic car rally and bbq soon which im going to go to. And probably mothers day lunch. And a vehicle rally, if you can get in it, or on it, bring it. i may go with a space hopper.

But how on earth do i get to talk to him when hes actually working.. i can only hope going along to one of he more fun things.

plus i have no idea how old he is and im suspecting early 20's ish???? and im not early 20's so im probably just insane and lusting after some bright young thing...

Hes all messy longish dark hair and stubble. Swoon.

i suspect he is always there. i think he might be the landladys son????

i need a plan ladies :)
help!!

to those on my facebook you can view mr pub boy if you follow the link to the pub ive just put up
then look under food
xmas menu
and his pic is the bottom one.. green jumper.

hes too young isnt he? and too attractive.
though that pic is about 2 years old.. and hes got his eyes closed.

meh

no chance.

i am reimagining him with longer hair and stubble. :) mmm! i think you would need to choose a quiet time and go in to 'meet' an imaginary someone and get stood-up... then look at your watch a lot and roll your eyes.

well done on the week! I've managed since wednesday with PM. this is an inordinatlely long period of time that will mean fuck-all to him. for me, it's like an ocean! :)

happy anniversary aurora and vimes. :) x!

A good plan ... the problem with this pub though is it really is in the middle of knowwhere. It's hardly even on a road.. its just the.pub and then meadows and fields...
And its tiny.. only fits 46 people in at a push...

Though I do sort of know the landlady now I could go talk to her... and then hope he comes to talk..

And just keep going to things there?

How old do we think he is?

Well done on the no pm contact... has he not even text? Hmmm. Leave it and see how long it takes him...... I'd bet about 2 weeks.
Men!!

we were texting on wednesday, 2 weeks would be about right. am even studiously avoiding him on fb. weekends are weird without him though. :(

he looks mid twenties. thats clearly doable allowable. :)

Not a clue on starting things up.

My mate is trying to keep the faith w/r smurf. I dunno. I think I am too used to being let down tbh so just assume he has gone off me. She has given me firm instructions to stay away from Mattsarse though until I am completely sure it is over with smurf.

Well done on the no PM or MrBig contact. I, on the other hand, have text Carrot asking if he can see me tonight . I really don't want to spend the evening alone.

ah. mid 20's and that pic is 2 years old for sure. or at least 18 months.. wasnt xmas just gone.. because it was on the website for the xmas just gone.

26?
28 maybe

thats ok :)

snape - im sure its poo. Bet you two weeks. tops.
I actually dont feel that bad. but i think its been drifiting since xfter xmas. ive not felt as strongly since then. its easier...

i just brought a petrol lawnmower on ebay. im very excited about this. clearly i need to get out more.

place marking

tk - I know that pub

not much to report

need a catch-up

You do? Does that mean you also know mr pub boy? Your going to tell me he's not single, or horrible, or gay or something aren't you?

No don't worry - haven't been there for ages.

evening

placemarking, i havent had a chance to read the thread properly, i have been immersed in transforming my bedroom

hope everyone is ok

Spent the evening with psychomum. Vets was horrible but really really well handled iyswim. dd1 keeps sobbing about it.

Had a few messages from Smurf. Told my mate the full story with his stuff which i Obv can't on here, and writing it down make me realise just how self absorbed and paranoid I've been. He is dealing with a lot and needs the space. Just sending random messages so he knows i am thinking of him. Told him I am worrying earlier (had been even quieter) and he's been with a mate so i am happier he's not alone.

and once again repeat to self... must not fall for blue men... clearly its not already happening or anything...

flame :( re vets, and poor DD.

I think next week's date has disappeared. After previously emailing several times a day, then was only once a day, now nothing since Thurs night. Oh well, back to the drawing board.....

place marking again

flame - am so sorry about your mum's dog

thank you everyone for anniversary wishes, lol thnaks for the daffodil bouquet lilac - vimes got me a chocolate sheep - the aero one. no flowers though. the best thing he could've given me was what he said on friday, he's going to try cutting down on the cigarettes - yay!! i think the coughing (not forced but completely natural!) every time he came near me - i have asthma and cigarette smoke really irritates it) i couldn't help it but it was horrible. so yay for vimes
