OK have been feeling pretty low this week, kids are away (first time ever both DCs away together) with ex H and new P on a 'luxury holiday' whilst I trying to get on the local housing list and thinking of claiming partial hb even though I work ft, I've had a cough for ages and have got laryngitis, still mooning over ex bf who I had an intense fling with last year and so on and so on. Yada yada.
Was thinking this morning how did it all come to this etc as you do. Seem to have screwed up everything esp in relationships!
So just popped out to get a magazine to read (as I should not be talking much) was looking at DVDs as well and a youngish french guy struck up conversation. So I spoke to him out of politeness really, we chat for about 5 mins in French and English then he asks me to go for a coffee. I decline as I am not feeling 100% but he gives me his no. to arrange another time (I don't give him mine) and tell him I am flattered and will think about it.
TBH probably won't contact him as he was not really my type tho was perfectly OK really and also don't know the first thing about him. But just goes to show how quickly things could turn around. Had he have been more my type would have probably gone for aforementioned coffee.
Just goes to show you never know what's around the corner and I was flattered and appreciated his interest. And I know I am not an old dog but as one gets older confidence can wane a little!!
Not posting to boast just to give encouragement really.
