dont mean you have trust issues. jus people in general.

HOLLY23 · 26/02/2009 09:01

Yeah IKWYM. Don't think he'll be contacting me any time soon with any interviews! lol just as well I'm not deperate!

ridingjoker · 26/02/2009 09:04

he's a fud.

so....fitguy? still not told me? have you arranged another date?

HOLLY23 · 26/02/2009 09:13

We're having out first date this Saturday! I'm looking forward to it! Actually thought I was dealing with it pretty well but got butterflies in my tummy now, and will be a bag of nerves on Saturday! Just hope he likes what he sees and vice versa of course!

ridingjoker · 26/02/2009 09:22

i'm sure he will. your lovely my dear.

it's nerve wracking isn't it?? much more than if you had met someone in RL. i also found myself to be a little embarassed.

HOLLY23 · 26/02/2009 09:23

Have you and Diver kissed? are you smitten with him?

ridingjoker · 26/02/2009 09:37

yeah. he did just before we parted ways. i was really embarased though about it as stone cold sober...and up until the point he kissed me i had no idea if he thought there was anymore in it other than just a fun day out.

but obviously there was.... i know that now and cant believe how different i am these days to before my ex. before him i would never have been awkward or shy with a guy that i fancied. normally i'd make the first move.lol

oh...... had a very brief kiss with marvelman on wkd...so i wont have the issue of ...is he/isn't he intersted in that way.

but to tell you the truth...i felt guilty about the diver as soon as it happened..which is ridiculous as i've only been on 1 date with him.

HOLLY23 · 26/02/2009 09:43

Ohhh, thats really sweet. IMO Sounds like Diver has it all e.g hot looking, good kisser, plus you get the space in between to concentrate on DCs. How was the conversation between you two?

ridingjoker · 26/02/2009 10:02

non stop converation.

his only problem is he was a bit scruffy

he was clean and his clothes were clean. but he needed tucked in and tidy his shoes.

lol. how fickle is that!!!

he's very keen. but also seems a bit wary that i'm going to just stop contact or get bored of waiting for him to be have some time off.

when i offered to go up this wkd and he said it was weather dependant he kept asking if i was in the huff, so i had to actually call and explain that i was fine with that.....dont think he's encountered a low maintenence female before

Holly23 · 26/02/2009 11:47

Rough and rugged diver man's obviously a little vunerable ahhh bless you'll have to do a bit of hand holding!

ridingjoker · 26/02/2009 11:53

at hand holding.

i haven't done that since i was a teenager .

what do you prefer??

hand holding.

arm round waist?

hand guiding small of your back?

or arm draped over your shoulder??(i rarely meet a man tall enough to do this)

hand in back pockets?

i wonder if you the man does is an indication to their personality?? i bet there is some pschogical link behind these

Holly23 · 26/02/2009 12:12

Lol, not sure what I prefer. Hand holding is sweet but , erm his arm around my waist or shoulder? don't know, maybe I'll find out on Saturday!

i like it when they open doors then guide you through with hand on small of your back......but i read somewhere thats a bit of a possesive thing showing people as you enter the room that you belong to them??

Holly23 · 26/02/2009 12:35

bet you wouldn't complain if it was Diver tho!

ridingjoker · 26/02/2009 12:46

you wouldn't either if fitguy does it on saturday
