Flame · 25/03/2011 20:07

Nah, it is pretty much a hot or not type thing

Betty79 · 25/03/2011 20:14

like are you interested or not? good good, had a few of these already and a couple of messages. In the past I've sent men I like the look of messages but cant be arsed with that at the mo, will just see if anyone interesting messages me Grin

Flame · 25/03/2011 20:32

Yup, that kind of thing. I'm doing the same

Flame · 26/03/2011 02:14

Carrot brought ipad2 for me to play with. Soooo shiny.

He also spotted the photo of Mattarse on my phone and went a bit spluttery which was amusing.

Flame · 26/03/2011 09:35

12 months today since I told xh to move out. Feels weird. I was so sure we would save it.

My 30th birthday celebrations begin today. bring on a New dawn.

tookoolforskool · 26/03/2011 11:12

happy birthday flame.

and i know it can be a bit odd around old anniversarys of things. So. thinking of you too,

I once ended up with a collection, or series of James's. I can vow. hand on heart, that i will never ever go near another james again.

3 weeks no mr big contact. Not sure if i should celebrate or cry.

adamschic · 26/03/2011 12:45

Hi everyone, Happy Birthday Flame, is Carrot on your facebook? Am in a nosy mood Grin.

Quick update from me. Still seeing EV, we went out for a nice meal last night and a few drinks. He's going ski-ing and with a group of people who he doesn't know, like a singles holiday but he wasn't selling it to me as such Hmm what do we think? TBH we are only dating and I cannot see us going anywhere.

Typical it's the weekend and it's clouded in, was hoping to sit out a sunbathe today. Think it's time I got dressed.

adamschic · 26/03/2011 12:49

Betty, if you go on 'would like to meet' it brings up profiles of people who fit your criteria. If you press yes to anyone it sends them a message that you would like to meet them. When I was on POF I never sent messages to people and only replied if I liked the look of anyone who messaged me. Said yes to a couple of profiles and had 2 dates with someone I liked but he hit an run, then EV who I've been out with a few times now. So it's not such a bad thing.

Flame · 26/03/2011 13:15

Nope. he doesn't like the idea of his life online BlushWink. Send me a message in Fb and I'll send pic :)

Sometimes just dating sounds good

Snapespeare · 26/03/2011 16:54

happy birthday Flame :)

we're just back from the (exhausting) anti cuts demo. having a quick sit down before traipsing off to see PMin theatrical production. get to sit in the dark for a couple of hours and stare at him. ;)

Flame · 26/03/2011 17:09

Birthday on Mon but thank you :)

Woohoo for PM staring Wink

I think Carrot is coming out!!! Shock

elastamum · 26/03/2011 21:00

Flame pre birthday celebrations with carrot!! Grin

Adam, i wouldnt worry too much about the skiing thing if you are just dating. Lots of people ski with groups, its not a sport that is that much fun on your own.

Star Yay for flat, you must be really pleased.

hi to MILY, SNAPE, TKFS, betty and everyone else.

Have had lovely weekend so far. GW has just gone home. Had a really nice evening together. He ended up going with me to pick DS1 up from his ski trip as they turned up 3 hours early and the teacher rang me whilst we were out walking the dogs together!!! DS1 is tired but happy - and so am I!

Am seeing GW again on Wed. Am really happy with him Smile

adamschic · 26/03/2011 21:42

Elasta, that's what he said and I can understand that but it was when he started going on about the mixed naked saunas that I started wondering. If you cannot pull in those circumstances then there is something wrong Grin.

Snape good on you re the march, hope the students were represented again. I've heard that Gideon has said it won't change anything Sad. I am very worried for the future tbh. They have hit my family very hard. Loss of EMA and Uni fees, it couldn't be any worse for us personally, well it could, my job could be under threat aswell but am hopeful that I am in a unique position workwise and I won't be affected further, fingers crossed.

Flame no worries I was just curious, hope you have a great birthday weekend.

Monty27 · 27/03/2011 00:29

Woohoo, had a lovely hour or so with Celtic last night and the rest of the evening with some wonderful friends.

Flame - if you think that your actions are the result of bi-polar, why don't you see your gp? Have you taken any advice on mn about bi-polar? A colleague of mine had bi-polar and takes medication. Mental health threads are full of good advice and support. This thread is not equipped to deal with it. There is help elsewhere. I hope you get it.

:)

Flame · 27/03/2011 16:29

Oh it was just random musings than a support thread type thing monty. no men happening so just talking about random life in general on here. Talking to rl friends about it.

Great night out. Carrot backed out last min which I had suspected he would but pissed off he said yes right up to last minute. That is one of his biggest flaws - he will avoid things in favor of upsetting people. Trying to convince him honesty is better than not mentioning etc. Had lots of fun with various mates. Another lecture about the bad newsness of Mattarse.

NOmeansNO · 27/03/2011 18:59

evening ladies,

i'm gonna check back and catch up. see what you lovely ladies have been up to. I had a fun wkd. fill you in on it in a bit, need to wrestle the wee folk into pj's first and do stories.

who's all here tonight? sunday night catch up from the wkd shenannigans used to be the busiest of our nights on this thread.

NOmeansNO · 27/03/2011 19:16

congrats on getting the keys star, did you move in go well?

elasta - is your fella still the one in the forces?

betty - so.. any biters or profiles for us to nosey at. you can PM mail if you prefer.

flame - Its pauls and allans for me.

as for names i would not be put off by a weird name. not in slightest. i told everyone who asked my name last night 'i wish to be addressed as jessebella please.. and thank you' with a large gin Grin

monty - how long you been seeing celtic?

and can i see some pics please of these blokes? who's sharing? if i dont already have you on fb then can pm me and i will give you my addy/fb

I went out to friends and pub on friday. karaoke fun.

went to edi to the gourmet burger kitchen. yum. great burgers.then a very long pub crawl through edi. watched ireland play in an irish bar. then in another bar we bumped into the huge group of forces rugby team. they were... em.. impressive. but also would have ate themselves if chocolate. then a group of irish got adopted and joined us in the last of our pub visits. then i pooped on last train back and made last orders at my local Smile.... there a bar tender in there who i would definately like to see naked.

NOmeansNO · 27/03/2011 19:17

was meant to be grin, not gin... but i was holding gin. so suppose its kinda right

tookoolforskool · 27/03/2011 19:54

just quickly want to go GGGGGRRRRRRRRRR

dd's dad wont be back when he first said. its not his fault at all. but gggrrrrrrr
he doesnt know when he will be back. hopefully my mid may.a month longer than he said.

So, firstly i need to tell DD who is going to be very upset.
secondly, and selfishly... i will get no breaks for a month further.

FairyLightsForever · 27/03/2011 19:54

NMN You pooped on the train? ShockGrin

FairyLightsForever · 27/03/2011 20:06

Sounds like a great night NMN, sorry about my childish humour Blush

Sad for Took that your ex isn't going to be available for babysitting

Hope you enjoyed PM ('s acting talent) on Saturday, Snape... did you drool?

Waves to everyone else

I have had a lovely weekend, went to see my friend for fizzy wine and hair dying last night. I now have bright red streaks in my hair ready for Torture Garden next weekend... getting excited now Grin

Flame · 27/03/2011 20:07

Oh grrr with you

Good night then? :o

Forgotten what I came on to say...

Not a nibble on POF. I sent 3 messages on Fri night and not heard anything from them either. bastards the lot of em Wink

Flame · 27/03/2011 20:09
Envy

NOmeansNO · 27/03/2011 20:51
