ooh are you all excited? what are you doing/wearing for the date?

he's napping atm, lol, kids are watching a dvd and i am on here

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 16:43

He is taking me for a meal in some chinese resturant, and then for a drink in some nice quiet bar.

I am quite looking forward to it, but still start to feel a little nervous as the date approaches!

What do you think I should wear?
The previous two dates have been on a Sunday night, and have been more casual affairs, but this one is a Saturday night date, so was thinking nice trousers & a nice top, or maybe a skirt.

how long/short is the skirt?

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 16:47

I have both (well nothing too short), most of my skirts are around knee length, or just above.

Was veering towards trousers.

trousers heels and a liitle bit of cleavage, nothing too obvious

if legs out keep boobs hidden imo

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 16:48

Wore a skirt to the cinema because it was hot, but it wasn't anything dressy, it was more a summery daytime skirt.

trousers then

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 16:50

I've heard that before from a student teacher I worked with, and when I went out with her wearing a long skirt, but a lowish top, she said "Perfect look - a conservative tart!"

yes, i always think it's much better to keep something back, getting it all out on display in public is not a good look and attracts the wrong kind of guy (for me anyway)

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 16:56

Oh I wouldn't put all on display - that is not a good look!
Don't think I own any very short skirts - none go far above the knee, but I am thinking trousers & a nice top for tomorrow night.

OP posts:
lou33 · 31/08/2007 17:15

he is really bloody handsome tho, i am not quite sure how i managed to bag someone that attractive,and youthful int he right combination, but i'm not complaining!

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 17:17

Lucky you! What does he look like?

OP posts:
lou33 · 31/08/2007 17:19

6ft 2, dark v short hair, muscular but lean (landscape gardener), almost 30, bit of stubble going on which i always like

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 17:21

Sounds very nice, and a young thing too!
Did you meet him on one of those dating sites?

OP posts:
lou33 · 31/08/2007 17:21

yup, about 6 weeks or so ago

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 17:26

Might have to check some of these sites out sometime!

OP posts:
lou33 · 31/08/2007 17:27

you sound sorted to me , 3rd date and all that!

Pinkchampagne · 31/08/2007 17:32

He is off on holiday on Monday, so I won't be seeing him for a while.
Hope he doesn't think he's getting his way with me, just because he's going away!

Hmm yes Lou and pinkchampagne, they sound very nice.

Can you experienced internet daters tell us what sites are worthwhile (with generally decent men), and which ones to avoid at all costs? As an extremely tentative single person (who realises I must somehow get back out there), am hoping to feel encouraged by/benefit from your good experiences....

lou33 · 31/08/2007 17:34

the one with the least amount of badly written porn that i have received so far, is plentyoffish.com, but that might be because i now say in my profile do not bother sending it to me
