HERE is the MOH's news KerryMum (and anyone else interested) lol

[MascaraOHara]

Sorry didn't want to get into it all on FB as my ex is one of my friends and has upped the game of trying to win me back by buying me a gorgeous necklace at Christmas.

So anyway...

I did talk about it briefly on another thread a while ago but brief history

Bumped into an old friend/acquiantance at a mutual friends brithday party in November, have been seeing each other a couple of times a week ever since..

we had the 'are we exclusive' kind of conversation a few weeks back - early December probably and had both talked about changing our FB status as both listed as 'Single', both felt it would tie up some loose ends as well.

I did mine first as he's not on there very often but he has to confirm it before his name shows next to it.

I feel weird now though.. am regretting it and wish I'd just taken it down completely iykwim

that's about it.. he's so lovely, giving me all the right signs etc. Think the feeling is mutual which is quite nice, if not a bit weird

it's all very exciting, just trying not to go all commitment-phobe on him lol

how do you feel about your ex?

new man sounds fab

he is CSL, saw him 3 nights running up to NYE, it felt weird not seeing him yesterday but then I think now Christmas/NY is over we will probably be back to a couple of times a week.

Ex is a good bloke but we are just not compatible, there is too much water under the bridge and we split up over a year and a half ago. He is fantastic towards my dd and has maintianed contact (though admittedly more so when he wants to get back with me, less so when he has a girlfriend) but when all is said and done, we were together for 3 years of my dd's 6 years so he's played a big part in her life iykwim.

I feel very ready to move on and very balanced, happier than I have been in a long long time so at least I feel like I'm in the right place to be starting a new relationship. First time I've felt like that (possibly ever)

any news on your CSL?

bit of a long story TBH... i have 2 threads on it in relationships with mixed views about him..
I will try to be short

20th dec.. spent the evening with him it was so lovely he really spoilt me. really looked after me... i was there til 4am..

Boxing day- went to his house in the evening another lovely evening and we kissed
left at 5am.....

NYE- spent it at his house... another snogathon and a little bit more but not the whole way IYKWIM after midnight we went for a walk hand in hand and i said to him we said we wouldnt let this happen again we would just be friends.. and he said i know but you cant deny there is major chemistry between us i agreed... and he said we need to talk about it another time and i said what and he said 'talk about what we are going to do are we going to be together or just friends' he said he doesnt want to mess me about
I stayed with him till about 5am then went home..

was going to see him last night but i was shattered after no sleep and didnt want him to come over and me get emotional on him with my tiredness.. and he was shattered to...

TBH when he said these things to me i felt really positive.. but since then i have been so down and wondering what is going to happen between us.. my friends think it is all positive but i am not so sure..

4 weeks ago he told me he didnt fancy my FGS!!! how am i mean to feel.... it is so mixed up

When we are together it is BLISS when we are apart my head is all over the place..

Still think he has a bit of resentment from our teenage years...

Any advice welcome

blimey, don't know what to suggest..

the question that springs to mind is - could there be any reason that he might be worried what other people think?? in that he really likes you but is worried what his friends might think?

other than that, I just don't know - seems very odd.. is he definitely single?

have you googled him? (after reading the other thread on here today)

could you just ask him or not really?

when we first got back in touch and were just talking in general he said he wasnt intrested in a realtionship ATM this was a general comment when we were talking about who we have had relationships with.. it wasnt a comment about me..

he must be single... i was with him boxing day and NYE at his house...

think i need to be patient to!!!!

Lol KM, was going to offer to give it back but it's too nice feel very guilty.

new blooke bought me a lovely watch.

not sure how to deal with his best friend though, i don't think I like how close they are (she is a she) but it'sve ery clear it's important to him that we like ach other nothing's ever easy lol

oh wow MoH, all sounds good to me! inundated with jewellry, lovely new man - just enjoy and don't look for worries where there aren't any!

Thanks Ninah.. I am definitely planning on keeping him

"we decided we were exclusive so have changed our FB status"
OMFG, I am single after nearly 17 years (ie I last dated at 19). I am obselete!!!

Sounds lovely for you .

LOL CS.. only mentioned the FB thing as this was started after KM commented on my status change there iykwim, didn't want to go into details there

that said, I have been genuinely surprised at RL reactions from people. I honestly did not realise that I was considered such a bachelorette, there seems to have been ripples of shock that I have met someone.. I'm not sure whether I should be flattered or insulted lol
