Hi Everyone,

Lou & inthemist - I don't like cocky guys either, but dont go for the really quite types either.
Inthemist - whats happening with Bob then?

lou33 · 11/03/2009 20:50

probably confidence asbm

inthemistsoftime · 11/03/2009 20:52

bobs still on the scene, was here this evening in a work capacity, I have a kitchen that needs fitting and he knows the guys that can do it well.

I have my dcs here as well so I warned him that I wouldn't be my usual self! lol

He was an angel and left with the fitters. We like bob, hes a diamond geezer!

Will see him properly at the weekend for some more fun!

ridingjoker · 11/03/2009 20:53

inthemist - thats great.

i'm so ill got dc stomach bug.

msn gardener then off to die on the couch.

i make men nervous as i can be very very loud.

inthemistsoftime · 11/03/2009 20:56

I dont make men nervous, men always want to look after me, I find it so bloody annoying, they really think I am a dumb blonde, but they are so wrong!

inthemistsoftime · 11/03/2009 20:57

rj, hope you feel better soon.

ridingjoker · 11/03/2009 20:57

wish someone would come look after me just now

inthemistsoftime · 11/03/2009 21:01

scotland is a little to far for me to go, otherwise I would offer.

Have you got anyone else who can help?

ridingjoker · 11/03/2009 21:04

no, dc were at their dads for a bit. but he made me come pick them up as he wanted to watch footy and they were disturbing him

dont really want to pass it on to anyone either.

inthemistsoftime · 11/03/2009 21:14

he sounds like a caring person then!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 11/03/2009 21:23

RJ hope you are feeling better soon. I can remember having a nasty virus when DD was around 5. My bro and his wife were staying with me for a week and I was in bed for 5 days. Don't know what I would have done if they hadn't been there. This isn't cheering you up is it!!

Checked out your date Lou. Nice. Hope you get on well. He may be older than the last one but still young enough for you.

lol who knows eh?

am till not sure where the other one went to!

maybe he was a figment of my imagination

lou33 · 11/03/2009 21:37

ah well that would be me feeling the poster was slightly patronising

but i had already forgotten i had posted there tbh lol

inthemistsoftime · 11/03/2009 21:45

asbm, that begs the question of when does one introduce dcs to nm?

For me the dcs are still very fragile over the separation so I have no intention of mentioning anything for a long time, I'm sure I will know when the time is right, that is if bob hangs in there! lol

aseriouslyblondemoment · 11/03/2009 21:58

inthemist
i can't really answer that tbh,it's a tricky one really.
obv.you and the nm want to get to knoweach other/spend time together
and then you're a lone parent and your time is limited without the dcs
and then you think will dcs get attached to nm
and
what if it all goes wrong?
it's a hard one to call really,nearly went there with exbf thankfully didn't

My DD scares them away . Anyone that's doesn't understand that she is around most of the time isn't worth it anyway.

Although I can go out to see someone nowadays I cannot stay away overnight and if they want to spend the night with me then they meet her. No choice. It's difficult when they are young but right up until they leave home I reckon.

Holly23 · 12/03/2009 07:40

Morning everyone.
RJ - hope you feel better soon, its hard when DCs are young and you're ill. I remember having bronchitus, this is when I lived with XH, I couldn't eat for 5 days I was so weak and ill but still had to look after DCs, make their food etc! Twuntexh was bloody useless
Inthemist - bob sounds lovely!

ridingjoker · 12/03/2009 07:49

hey, feeling better this morning. got it all out my system through the night. managed to keep some toast down this morning. so feeling a bit better now i'm not running on empty.

and i think thats something i will definately look for in a new fella. one who actually looks after you when your ill. very of my friends. all of their dh are great when they're ill. take days off work and let them lie in bed all say.

inthemistsoftime · 12/03/2009 08:01

morning all, glad you are feeling better rj,

holly I think bob is lovely too, but need to take things nice and slow for my sake and the dcs.

holly, where are you today?

supervixen · 12/03/2009 08:13

glad you are feeling better rj

good news about bob mist

know what you mean re being ill, i havent eaten for 4 days now, got tonsillitis, just about had enough, where is the queue of people to look after me, er nowhere

aseriouslyblondemoment · 12/03/2009 09:37

Morning All!
think there must be something doing the rounds as I have woken up feeling rotten too
and yes it would be nice to be allowed to be ill wouldn't it?
sadly not an option when you're on your own with dcs
