By HOLLY23 on Tue 17-Feb-09 15:45:38 "N1 - your answer to my questions would be very much appreciated, its not a trap for us to get more information out of you for asbm, somehow I don't think she needs our help to do that!"

I didn't think you would be used to trap me, and if I did, I might feel that you had an ulterior motive or hidden agenda.

It's rare for me to stick up for anyone. asbm should have no problem getting info out of me, my answers are sometimes cryptic. She is clever enough to figure the answers out.
I am sure there are other posters who pick out answers from my cryptic replies.

n1 - so are you saying i should take diver karting and just fill the girls in the next day and see them both??

I am not saying anything. Though I can ask - how much talking are you and he going to be doing while you and he are being competitive with each other? If the man is a sore looser, will the date be good after?

A good first date or "getting to know the person" at the start is important. You want to spend time with someone but if you are to busy looking for an activity partner, by the time you get to know them, you discover the things you wished you knew at the start.

I will get my DD to sort out MSN for me. I know what you mean about phonecalls, if I don't really know someone IM, text or emails are better. Guess what that dirty text man from RL has not contacted me even today so don't think I'll be hearing from him. Don't know why he wanted to kiss and makeup? hmm still I'm glad, don't need shit like that atm

There is a song with "kiss and make up" on youtube, called hot and cold....

inthemistsoftime · 18/02/2009 00:58

I give up!

N1 · 18/02/2009 01:19

Inthemistoftime. I need little sleep - unless there is a reason to go to bed.

I was thinking about you this evening. I have to be in London in early March for an evening. If I got to London early enough, I could make myself available and we could meet up, perhaps feed the ducks, drink coffee or something. If we go beyond where I know (geographically), you have to promise to take me back to where I have to be, which should be in the center of London. I tend to get on trains and go in the wring direction. I know one way in and one way out. I don't alter from that.

So shall we meet up? errr, this is just to meet up,, it's not a date that could go anywhere.

HOLLY23 · 18/02/2009 08:15

N1, thanks for your replies, they are so informative, and have enjoyed reading them, it does make a lot of sense, and there is no point to me starting anything with the webcam guy because I am not attracted to him.
Lol, I can tell by the exchanges between you and asbm that she can decipher your cryptic messages, its just plain frustrating for the rest of us! (Cilla voice) I just need an occasion to wear my hat! lol
I thought I was a light sleeper, I feel sleepy by 10pm but very often I am awake at 2am in the morning and then it takes me a few hours to get back to sleep. I'm not to happy about this e.g. premature aging due to lack of sleep and feeling tired at work! Hoping this will resolve itself as my life settles down.

HOLLY23 · 18/02/2009 08:34

I haven't got a problem sending a message to a guy, and prefer it to sending a wink. At least with a message you can put in information to let the OP know a bit more about you and its gives you the opportunity to ask a few questions as well.

N1 · 18/02/2009 08:49

agreed,

The rest of you can look at cryptic messages and use your imagination...

inthemistsoftime · 18/02/2009 09:10

N1, it could be interesting meeting up.

What dates are you looking at in March?

A possibility, just as long as everyone understands that it is not a date just a friendly chat.

elmoandella · 18/02/2009 09:16

n1 - it's only 10 mins on the track after a safety brief. we would do something else on that day to do the chatting.

but we're both adrenalin junkies.so i think it would be a great fun thing to do. and it would give me another fun day to remember even if the dating never goes anywhere.i'm not sure about his competitiveness. but i doubt it. i would be very very suprised if he was a bad loser.and if he was at least i find out sooner than later.

bad losers are a huge turn off to me.

holly - i like talking to men on the phone. sometimes there completely different than rl.

they can usually msn/text well but in a phone call they are hopeless,

also text.msn can be taken the wrong way. humour can be taken as an insult. but with a call it's very clear from tone of voice if your being rude/embarassed/shy.....all the emotions are better voice to voice.

lou33 · 18/02/2009 13:54

i meant, wrt my last post, that he was knackered from flying back home, lol

afternoon everyone

HOLLY23 · 18/02/2009 14:00

Elmo, taken your advice and will talk to fit man on the phone. I'm not normally lost for words so I'm sure it will be ok.

Lou - was it all good last night? did your man notice the new sofa?

I contacted web cam guy, sent him a message just to say that would prefer for us to be friends only and happy to just continue to exchange messages, but he hasn't replied so perhaps he may be hacked off because I think he was hoping something more would happen, even though I already made it clear even yesterday that I was only looking for friendship. Oh well!

As for fit guy, well he sent me an email today and that seems to be going ok so will see what happens when we talk!

lou33 · 18/02/2009 14:24

yes he did notice the sofa, and the rug, complimented me , was generally lovely, and we had a v good time

he is off to holland for a few days this afternoon and back saturday

wants me to go stay with him saturday evening

well not much to report really here
cyberman2(CM2)he of the all singing all dancing phone rang me last nite for a very long chat
he seems like a nice bloke very funny the type that you would have a laugh in the pub with.not sure if i would find him intellectually stimulating enough tho to keep me sufficiently interested.he has asked me out but hasn't set a time and i managed to change the subject lol.
cyberman1(CM1)MSNd me last nite and we had our usual chat.unfortunately he lives some distance away from me,but we are planning to arrange something in the not too distant future,which will be nice as i'm very curious about him indeed.i also decided to call him before i went to bed and he sounds really nice indeed...mmmm!
Havent checked my emails etc as yet so dont know if i have any other cybermen options
