its just a thought which has been pondered upon by a few of us on here
as Lou 33 said if she knew the answer then she wouldn't be on MN

tailored chic

what do you think. i have to see solicitor first??

formal yet alluring i'm going for. with plain smart black trousers and boots. perhaps even with heel as he'll be tell enough i wont be towering over him.

very formal and alluring!
you are supposed to be a client after all!
has he been in touch?

OP posts:
elmoandella · 01/02/2009 20:40

nope. not yet. i got the same top in a really bold cobalt blue which is possibility for house warming with another one that feels really lush.

you know the type thats "fluid" yet not silk. may keep that for when i go on a proper date with someone. once you touch it you have to feel it again and go "ooooooooooooh"

guess it's not a first date no then!
and we're back onto touch again..
and no doubt playing with hair if N1 comes back!

OP posts:
elmoandella · 01/02/2009 20:48

well if it's with the banker it'll not be first date as technically tomorrow would be first date. lol

elmoandella · 01/02/2009 20:52

was going to give him my number if we confirm tomorrow incase he's late or i'm held up at solicitors.

After I separated from my ex wife, I was alone for about 9 months to a year. I met the first girl after my ex and the relationship was good the sex was fantastic. When the relationship went down, the sex reduced but still happened. I can't say that the sex was meaningless but not anything as good as it was at the start.

i thought that you had exchanged no's already
in that case you'll just have to sit tight

nah. not G&C today. looks like i'm not meeting. he could be out i suppose. i only asked earlier if he was coming back later to sort out arrangements. he knows i have my computer on till i go to bed as it's tv aswell.

back to pics again
guy that i have chatted a little to on FRD has the 'ask to see my hidden pics' option
and as he seems alright i did ask
have just received them back
and he is another liberal with the truth type
especially when he slated a woman for being several stone overweight
not very impressed but am now in the horrible situation of thinking what do i say
its not to do with looks just the honesty factor
i dont have pic on there but at least my description is accurate re:height/build etc

OP posts:
elmoandella · 01/02/2009 21:26

send back asking when the photo's were taking as there's a bit of a difference between his photo's.

N1 · 01/02/2009 21:27

I think last minute plans are not a good idea....sounds like crisis management to me.

People are already unsure and possibly nervous, adding uncertainty to the process doesn't help anything get better.

elmoandella · 01/02/2009 21:36

we had already agreed a time and a place.

when he came online earlier and i was busy i aked him if coming back to just confirm arrangements.

now that he's not come back online thinking i'm being blown out.

so i wont be turning up tomorrow.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 01/02/2009 21:39

hmm it makes me sound shallow
there's only one pic
and for him to criticise a woman he met once for misleading pics is just hypocritical
he described himself as medium in his profile
he isnt at all
as i've said before it isn't a looks thing just an honesty one
what other skeletons are lurking?

elmo just read that
perhaps he thinks he's told you and that's all there is to it

OP posts:
elmoandella · 01/02/2009 21:42

i'm sorry but i'm perhaps a bit more blunt. even if i like someones personality. if i find them repulsive. just tell them your not interesting in anything other than a friendship.

elmoandella · 01/02/2009 21:45

i couldn't face turning up and getting all excited only to be stood up
