oh... and all were online except marvel.

so come on ladies.... and especially you loy who have nm now... lets see if we can work out an average number of crap blokes to decent blokes ratio.

thesouthsbelle · 08/08/2009 13:12

god rider, where are you meeting all of these men?? and an important thing do you pay or do they for the dinner?

and what's your best brush off?

sailor here has gone to america for 2 weeks, (thankfully) as until now he's been saying to me to 'behave' when I go out - seriously. have been polite but think it's time to get tough.

else where thou I know I swore off men, but well there's a nice (v nice) welshman in the gym who i've taken a shine to.... watch this space... apparently he's taken a shine back as well.

will do better to keep up with all of you gals now.

oh and also XH is also sniffing around again for good measures - hates any bloke I talk to is being consistently flirty but I think not. not gonna go back there again.

oh and the deejay asked me out to coffee again. ho hum.

ridingjoker · 08/08/2009 13:39

diver - mostly him, some me. although 2 dates. 2nd date was more of a whole wkd.

superman - paid for my flights/food for wkd. also offerd spending money which i declined.

TT policeman i paid drinks at bar, he paid for dinner at restaurant as i'd spent diesel money driving to dundee.

copper - paid for dirnks

tigger - i paid , he "forgot" his wallet

cocktail - he initially tried to buy everything. after we had words it was round each as out in edi for drinks.

portobello paid for coffee

marvel - insisted on halfing everything by checking bill till we had words. but then it was 50/50

beachbum - wont let me even get as close to removing my purse. had to stuff money into those self service tills in asda last night before he was finished scanning , just so i could put something towards it.

and oooh speak of devil.. tigger has finally realised i haven't contacted him.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 13:46

aww rofl
excellent stuff

ok here's my muppet man list
ldr-had finished at the start of this thread,but he had the temerity to wink me within hours of my rejoining site
lilly allen wrote a song about him
for being a complete bastard and a coward he scores a big fat zero
cheeky chops-1 date-v good looking, tall and trendy.no spark there at all but i would have considered seeing him again as he was good to have on my arm if nothing else,but hey ho he had that contagious man ignorancedisease bfs..6/10
tintin-1 date-completely off type for me,had to be talked into going on this date.far better in RL tho,sweet nice man but just not me..7/10
phileas-omfg words fail me!!!can't even begin to mark him
indieman-lucky escape for mebig fat zero
t1wga-10/10 sadly we never properly got it together,still think about him tbh,but can't allow him to keep coming back into my life
actionman-10/10.caught me unawares he has good n proper!

ridingjoker · 08/08/2009 13:50

asbm - omg i forgot so many of yours.... my it has been fun finding out who we are again...

so your keeper was number 7, and you found 3 out of the 7 were decent enough blokes although not all for you.

thats promising. almost 50 %

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 13:59

yes but we haven't included those we didn't meet up with here have we?
strangely enough have dreamt about tintin and phileas lately
relax,not in a pervvy way
tho the phileas one was disturbing as he somehow managed to find out where i lived

thesouthsbelle · 08/08/2009 14:00

are we going back tot he time we first split from out H's/long term P's then, or jsut recent people?

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 14:02

meant to ask you are you still getting those dirty texts?
i have been receiving random calls lately from unknown no's
obv.i don't answer and whoever it is isn't leaving me vm's
but it has got me wondering...

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 14:06

was actually from the start of this thread way back in jan
but i think in both mine and rj's case our list coincides with muppets men dated since we split/divorced
all harmless fun regardless!!

ridingjoker · 08/08/2009 14:08

no dirty texts have stopped. i managed to unsubscribe.

south - well for us its since thread started and roughly when we split from last h/long-term.

thesouthsbelle · 08/08/2009 14:13

blow a whistle down the phone at them. if it's a land line might be an automated thingy.

ok for me then..

sailor - OMFG he was amazing, 10/10 - but got shipped out. is back in twon but well it's better he's the one that got away.
teacher - hmm yeah ok then 3/10
angel - my GBF we still talk now, love him to bits is a true mate, (still owes me some money thou,. but as we're mates it's cool for now)
erm.. lorry driver 0/10 IDIOT. issues.
boat builder 0/10 couldn't kiss - and am sure he was married as a friends boy from toddler group was the spitting image of him.
footie fan - IDIOT tried pressuring me into doing stuff I didn't want. 0/10 and was really hairy.
XP - could kiss, started out well, but ulitmatly he was pulling me in a direction didn't want to go was a 9/10 to start with but went down to a 2 or 3/1 once his true colours started coming thru
sailor no 2 - lol. yeah not good, is a nice bloke but not BF material 4/10 (got drunk on the date n tried it on)
gym boy - am yet to go for a coffee but early indications are promising.
deejay - love of my life, 10/10, is amazing, but we shall see. my parents don't want me dating him again.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 14:15

so are you going to give us your list then belle?
{nosey emoticon}
need distracting from the laundry!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 14:20

ignore that
god am soo impatient lol
hmm interesting
what's the time period involved here then?
has your exh met anyone else?

thesouthsbelle · 08/08/2009 14:25

yeah well xh was cheating on me with a silly little bint, (I have isshoooos over that- him and her not just her) but she got her way - ie getting a married man away from his wife n child, when I had literally 4 weeks prior had a m/c with XH and I not getting on/dealing with it at all. anyhow they were together until about 3 months ago or so when she finished with him - he said she was immature, she said he was never around when she needed him - I well, I'm just here gloating, XH keeps trying on the sniffing around thing but not gonna go back there- too much hurt & water under the bridge. Just wish he'd stop being so flirty & suggestive - the latest thing was 'i'd give you one...' my responce was, I think you better find yourself a girl love cos we can't all be lucky and have play mates can we and walked off! (Que him to get the arse by thinking I had a play mate - haven't but he doesn't know that does he! lol)

We've been separated 2 years next month - my how time flys.

Remotew · 08/08/2009 14:32

I must be the most unlucky on this thread as since it started I only actually met one of the guys I've chatted to online.

Foreign friend, met him online, we had contact for a while but went out twice, never got it together as I declined his invitation to his room. He stopped contact. 4/10

Boatman, met him on a nightout, went out intensly for all of 2 and half weeks then he said he wanted to call it quits as he wasn't in love. Looked like a love sick puppy next time I bump into him, he wanted to see me again but I declined. 3/10

FWB, met through mutual friends 4 yrs ago. Seen him a few times, started up again the last 2, asked for more and he said he didn't want a relationship with me. 7/10

No one in the pipeline except one whom I'm sorely tempted to go for but it won't be a relationship. Predicting 10/10 in the physical dept.

Good I'm unlucky in love.

Remotew · 08/08/2009 14:33

God, not good!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 14:40

are you actually divorced now or is it still ongoing?
mine seemed to take forever
have been divorced for a year now
certainly didn't expect to find myself where i am now a year back

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 14:52

i don't know about the unlucky one eve,i think you've prob.saved yourself alot of grief tbh
you only have to look at some of the ratings these idiots men have had
still it's kept us all entertained of sorts hasn't it?!

lou33 · 08/08/2009 15:42

i cant remember mine

OP posts:
aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 16:12

is that good or bad then lou?!

lou33 · 08/08/2009 16:12

well i can, i mean i cant remember all of them

batman

mandolin man

darkhorse

raf guy

after that i am struggling to remember

oh there was the guy i knew who went on holiday and missed me so much ..... so much so he disappeared off the face of the earth once we had met up again

the sa guy who turned into a friendship, but i have right now washed my hands of

i know there has been more but i cant think who right now

OP posts:
aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 16:17

yeah we all liked batman
wasn't he a 10/10 too

ridingjoker · 08/08/2009 17:07

eve - but you have done the best out of us with meeting them in real life... think perhaps you have the best social life

none of us get out enough to meet anyone out. pgrin]

lou - yeah.... whatever happened to batman.

asbm - i'm with you.... even though i haven't found anyone genuine i fancy to keep.... i am rather pleasantly suprised by the quality of available specimens i have found.

lou33 · 08/08/2009 17:38

i am still in touch with him, we just havent had a chance to meet up again

totally great guy all round, but would be useless to have a relationship with because he works so many hours

he also says he doesnt know if i should go to his house cos i would fancy one of the guys he shares with

OP posts:
aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/08/2009 17:52

in that case i'd be hot-footing it round there pronto
rj-are you still ?!
