Where have all the fit and intersting men gone part 10 (part 10...already?!)

[Janos]

Yay, I get to start this one!

Anyways hey to Dee and mousie, the more the merrier I say

rj - just read back and seen about the wedding. You are dead right, what a shit your ex is.

Mind you I wasn't invited to my Dad's wedding when I was about 11/12 and didn't actually give a hoot.

It reflects badly on them (yr ex and family I mean) for doing it really. I'm sure your lovely DC won't be affected at all.

rj - you're dead right of course, Scottish blokes notoriously stingy. Exbf for example says he will still be hunting round in bargain bins even when earning ludicrous salary he will surely get as an IT professional.

Lots of IT professionals on POF. And men who run a lot too it seems. Men like running for some reason. Why run when you can walk or get a bus, I say?

oh there's a deffo alot of pork pies being said and eaten on those profiles.

i actually get put off by fitness freaks. i like the ones who say they go to gym and hate it. and the ones who make it clear the avoid the gym and prefer some sort of sport.

or dont mention it at all. is there a compulsory element requiring the men to state what sports/ helth things they do?

I think men assume that we are interested in that kind of thing? I don't know. I don't care, personally.

Of course it's nice that someone takes care of themselves, slobs aren't attractive, but otherwise I don't give a toss about fitness routines.

And hmmm, yeah, lots of porkies too, I reckon

itm know how you feel it does my head in that alot of my headspace is taken up with exh and his seemingly wonderful new family.

They are still in their 'honeymoon period' - however the dcs say when they come back from exh that daddy is very grumpy with them and uses difft tones of voice if new p is around compared to when they are not.

Janos I agree don't think ultimately they will change though!!

RJ no didn't see samename over the weekend and we didn't speak to each other - it's weird really. I am seeing him on Friday and am sure it will be fine but don't think it's really going anywhere.

I agree they will never change and My only feeling towards XP is one of general indifference. Apart from when he starts being unpleasant - of course then I don't like him.

Men like that are very difficult (not to say impossible) to deal with, no question.

My method for keeping sane is to limit contact to the absolute minimum necessary and do everything (arrangements etc) in writing so you have a record of them.

All this 'wonderful family' stuff is nonsense you know. Either they find someone else who's just as bad as them OR they go on and make someone else's life a misery.

If my XP wasn't DS' Dad then I would never see or speak to him again and be quite happy about it.

Sorry for random bizarre caps and punctuation there folks.

Morning all

Very busy this weekend on the board I see. No meetups with anyone so nothing to report. My life is boring!

llaj - your life is certainly not boring, what with tranny's and pilots. lol

i've been asked on another date to kelvingrove museum. the staff there are going to start talking about me.

i am not long back from the funeral, and bloody knackered

4.5 hrs round trip driving and wearing black in this heat is not a good thing!

How was the funeral lou? Hope it all went ok.
Agree black funeral type clothes not nice in hot weather - says she who owns very few summery clothes.

On POF I have been emailed by attractive looking 24 year old who I am contemplating replying to and an American who thinks I look 'simply ravishing'.

God bless you son but actually I'm sat here in tracksuit and food splattered vest...well it made me smile anyway. Irony and all that.

rj the kelvingrove is very nice. Wouldn't mind going there again myself!

Oh more man news while I remember.

Texted the doc to ask if he wanted to meet for coffee, no response. However he did indicate he was sleeping then working and while I have no experience of this I'm fairly sure texting while operating on someone is not the done thing.

CM been msning me again, I expect he's bored and wants some attention.

Met exbf on Sat and actually had a very nice, slightly emotional day. He is starting a new job and sorting himself out so I was pleased to see that.

DAte for Sunday lunchtime cancelled (did I mention that)? Claiming illness but apologised and said he definitely wants to meet up, so benefit of the doubt there. Mildly hungover from Sat so wasn't too upset about that.

So, that is man situ in a nutshell. Over complex as usual.

it went ok thanks, sad of course though

i didnt stay long afterwards because i had to get back for the kids

Hi all,

RJ no captain didn't bother me again. He had asked me to call him. No chance.

Itm, it's really hard when ex's appear to swiftly move on. All I can say is that knowledge is power. Once you are aware of his situtation you can start to deal with your feeling on it. Coming to terms with it knowing you cannot control it and don't even try will get you to that indifferent state you hope for.

A guy I was chatting to on POF text to say he was seeing someone. This has happened a couple of times. It serves me right as I drag my feet because deep down I don't want to go on a blind date. Profile is hidden because of this. Went on speed date the other day, just out of curiosity .

I got biten by midges drinking wine in my friends garden on Sat night. I had jeans on but they got my ankles and legs 20 times each. Grrr.

Been at work on this lovely day and have 4 days more ahead of me. Not nice to be stuck inside. Or on a long journey, Lou. Roll on the weekend.

Ouch @ midges eve, not nice. We have a particularly ferocious variety up here. Devious little creatures aren't they?

I know I have problem with mozzies but have never been attacked this way in the UK. They must have come down from Scotland!!

Just ordered some Avon stuff which is meant to be an effective repellent.

Yes, they sound like west-coasters eve

Don't know about West- coasters - I've got multiple bite lumps the SIZE of coasters on my legs.

What do you think of this, then. DD1 on Industry Day Wednesday. (Day's work experience with relative or Friend of family & as I don't work Wednesdays she asked her Dad if she could join him in his Office. He called her mobile tonight to discuss it(I'm apprehensive as OW works at same office & kids not met her yet) & she told me that he couldn't take her in but would call round with lap top at 10.30am to show her some of things he does. Doesn't that strike you as somewhat cheeky? Apart from the fact I have a friend coming for lunch that day he never thought to check with me first ( story of our life together actually!)

! sent him a text saying understand he's not taking C to office on industry day & JUST IN CASE he was going to ask - it's NOT convenient to set up office in MY home. That should tell him!

To be honest I wouldn't mind but for the friend, it's just so hard to see him without stirring all the hurt & turmoil up again. Hate to say it but if he were dead it would be easier to cope with.

This will add some joy to your mornings. So after the drama with the tranny I meet myself a nice lad and we have been emailing. All very nice normal email and then this morning I get an email asking me 'what does my clit feel like during sex' WTF am I doing to attract these wierdoes??????

Could it be his besie mate typing to play a trick on him? Or his Wife??!!!

Ooooo I got my 1st rose on POF!

morning all!
only skimming thru so apologies now if i've missed something out
llaj- oh deary me!{shaking head emoticon}
thank goodness you have a gsoh
rj-no not calling actionman bf yet,tho i've obv been introduced as his gf,will see how it goes once the dcs have met him
hope everyone else is good!

Ooh dee - was it from someone sleazy with a comment like 'you are hot wanny chat?' or from a nice boy?

Actually no, seems like a nice gent - happy to chat. Got an apology from the Newt. (pissed 'tits' man) & am rather liking the sound of a guy with no picture (I know RJ, but I have to ask them why they don't have pics on there) & this one got chatting & I can imagine he looks like Richard Gere, or Johnny Depp, or Andrew McCarthy, or . . . .sigh! It's hot and it's been too long I'd say!
