It is with the man that I met briefly while out back in December, and got into trouble with ex H for receiving a text from him.

I recently text him to give him my new mobile number, and tonight he has asked if I want to meet him for a drink on Sunday night!

Ex H is meant to be having the boys on Sunday, so there is no reason why I can't go, but it feels a bit strange.
Also, I had had a few drinks back in December when I spoke to him, and I can't for the life of me remember what he looks like!!

Am PMSL as I've just noticed my "crushed car in phone door" mistake!! Was laughing earlier at LGJ's watermelon line & completely missed my own cock up!!

I will definitely leave it a good few days, Dior, but will more than likely give him another go so to speak!

cock up

PMSL.

Glad you had a nice night out. Must be fun to go out, just because you can.

Actually he sounds very keen. You might have to make it clear that you are going to need some time and lots of window shopping before you are ready to get serious!

Relax and have a nice time - you deserve to be appreciated!

Pinkchampagne · 14/08/2007 21:43

You're back, Blu!
Did you have a good holiday?

@ charliecat - you are a very bad girl!!!

Pinkchampagne · 14/08/2007 21:45

I shall have you know that there was none of that rude business going on!!

OP posts:

charliecat · 14/08/2007 21:46

Yep, first date and all that

Pinkchampagne · 14/08/2007 21:48

Can't cope with any serious stuff yet, Blu, that's for sure! It felt odd just being out with another man, but I didn't feel the guilt I thought I would.

OP posts:

Pinkchampagne · 17/08/2007 00:23

He has text me again tonight! Far too keen IMO!

OP posts:

Pinkchampagne · 17/08/2007 00:37

Maybe I am too stand offish though

OP posts:

charliecat · 17/08/2007 14:16

Awwww not too keen at all...hes gonna think your not interested Can I have him lol

Pinkchampagne · 17/08/2007 14:27

I did reply to him, and said I would let him know when ex H takes the boys.

According to the friend of my friend, he (in her words) a very good catch, but I don't know, he does seem quiet keen!

I will more than likely go out with him again, then I will send him your way!

PC do it all in your own time, you arent ready to jump straight in but it dont stop you having a little fun along the way, what might be a good catch for one woman might not be for another, so dont let that push you into something you are not ready for, im sure you are a good catch yourself so a man who is worth his weight in gold will wait for you

Blu · 17/08/2007 14:50

I am sure PC is a very good catch indeed!
She is stunningly beautiful for a start!

Have you arranged another date yet? No harm in going out and having a nice time - good for your confidence, a series of dates doesn't commit anyone to anything!

Pinkchampagne · 17/08/2007 16:34

Don't know about the good catch bit!!

I haven't arranged another date yet, but will text him and maybe arrange possibly meeting him again one evening next week, once I know which nights ex H is having the boys.

OP posts:

Pinkchampagne · 17/08/2007 16:42

Like you say, Blu, there is no harm in going out for a couple of dates, so long as they don't start getting all heavy on me!

OP posts:

Pinkchampagne · 19/08/2007 23:00

I text him today & arranged another possible night out next Sunday.

charliecat · 19/08/2007 23:01

Yay... Love story of the year coming up

Pinkchampagne · 19/08/2007 23:03

Steady on now!!
