morning - inthemist?? your normally up this early. what happened with bob?

inthemistsoftime · 25/02/2009 07:37

morning all, yeah went well, bob is very keen!

its a bit scary but will hang in there to see what happens

possible next date on friday night, thats if the kids dad can do it.

I did wear the trousers and they looked fab, will have to keep the running up to fit into them again!

ridingjoker · 25/02/2009 07:43

come on. more details than that.

inthemistsoftime · 25/02/2009 08:08

we only met for drinks and dinner as I had to be back by 10.30, however if friday comes off, I'll be able to give you a bit more detail.

He is really nice, and I am not used to it, it is gonna take some time for me to accept that men can be nice and dont just want to jump you!

ridingjoker · 25/02/2009 08:13

oh that sounds promising. it's nice to know they're interested in all of you. not just getting you naked.

did he go all out in the gentleman department too i'm guessing?

inthemistsoftime · 25/02/2009 08:19

yes, he was a gentleman, making sure I got to train station and home ok.

However being an independent lady I insisted on buying dinner, he accepted gracefully, but I could see it didn't sit well with him.

He is exactly the same age as me, but I am a few months older, and he hates me calling him bob, which I do frequently!

inthemistsoftime · 25/02/2009 08:22

I was just reading hollys post about her ex and family saying she was horrible, I had the same thing done to me by the kids dad, its very hard to deal with, luckily I have enough friends and family around to let me know that that was not the case.

Well done Holly for coming out of it the better person.

HOLLY23 · 25/02/2009 08:22

Inthemist - Last night sounds lovely, so what are you going to call him instead if he doesn't like Bob?

ridingjoker · 25/02/2009 08:30

yeah, meant to say holly. i was made out to be allsorts. even my own family started to believe him.

but the truth always comes out in the end.

HOLLY23 · 25/02/2009 08:32

Thanks Inthemist, Luckily my family have been really supportive, but they all lived out of town, thats why in the end me & DCs moved back to my home town.

HOLLY23 · 25/02/2009 08:36

RJ, thats what I always say, just sit back because eventually the truth always comes out. X and his family have tried to make out I went out clubbing 3 times a week; I was an alchoholic; picked up guys; etc etc, all so blantantly ridiculous. Anyway all the past now and can't wait to see fittie on Saturday . He called me at 10pm last night and we chatted until 11.10pm

aseriouslyblondemoment · 25/02/2009 09:34

morning!
so glad that the date with Bob went well inthemist
had to smile about your comments
tho its not only men who do the jumping lol.
i think we've all been tarred with that brush re:exs
but hey ladies here we all are
we've come out the other side and we're on a dating thread lol!
so life can't be all that bad can it[smile

aseriouslyblondemoment · 25/02/2009 10:01

sincitylover · 25/02/2009 10:53

morning all - quick update then will be back later.

Great to hear date with Bob went well and Holly is on track with fitguy. All good.

Samename2 text me this morning - just to say hello how are you. So that's fine.

Plus exbf was in touch last night - it was like he was possessed - must see me etc etc.

He's never been like that before - perhaps he has a sixth sense.

Catch up later.

HOLLY23 · 25/02/2009 10:58

SCL, whats exbf's problem? does he still hold a thing for you? glad samename2 contacted you

aseriouslyblondemoment · 25/02/2009 11:06

SCL hi!
see samename2 didnt have broken finger syndrome after all!
oh god what are we like eh?
am having the same text quandry here myself at the mo aagggh im old enough to know better!
exbf too?
maybe he has a sixth sense?
hope things do eventually get sorted with him
i really dont know how you cope with that kind of a roller coaster thing

OP posts:
inthemistsoftime · 25/02/2009 11:35

asbm, I do know that, lets us just say I am not usually backwards in coming forwards!

however this one is still around!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 25/02/2009 11:41

lol
nor me if the situ.is right!
tho it has caused probs.in the past
i take it that you're restraining yourself with Bob?
is it hard

OP posts:
inthemistsoftime · 25/02/2009 11:44

no I did not restrain myself, I fell at the 1st post!!!lol

so much for the 3 date rule.

sincitylover · 25/02/2009 12:00

I am delighted samename2 has got in touch because it sort of confirms that I my feelings about the meeting were right ie sparks were flying !!

ASBM I have always known from an early age that some aspects of my life would be a rollercoaster. I try not to create such situations I hope. Actually I feel it more about property than relationships. It's weird. Because I have had two very long relationships - of 7 years and 15 years, so some stability there.

But houses I move into I always have this temporary feeling even when they are meant to be permanent. Maybe I should rename myself Mysticcitylover

Holly - have seen exbf on and off since mid 07. But he runs hot and cold. Last night he was burning hot!! LOL I think we both have a thing for each other but he has ishoos!! I never wanted to let him go when we went out all those years ago but for whatever reason he did. Does he regret it- no idea?
