starts here

why would you bin off gymboy before asking about it?

he may well just have been checking mail or hiding a profile or something, talk to him before you dump him

glad you had a nice time mousie.

spoke to gymboy again last night after my studys - wasn't expecting that phone call, but was lovely. went to bed all warm n fuzzy.

Oh also I've sort of promised him a curry and I have bugger all idea on how to cook one which doesn't come out of a jar (ie which spices work well together) - any recipes??

aseriouslyblondemoment · 13/09/2009 11:46

my currys mild - anything else..... well! ;o lol. it's him who likes it as hot as possible (the curry that is!)

been flirting outrageously today with him again - apparently he's even tidies his flat up & has (and I quote) felt like a woman lol. cos he's even done the windows.

ho hum, need to hit the books for a good few hours before I can go out thou.

I had a great night out last night. We went to the school reunion. It wasn't a great turnout and only a couple of people from my year but I met this lovely guy who I didn't know previously, few yrs younget than us.

A crowd of them were hitting the clubs so I just couldn't not go!!

Met up with lots of people I knew out told a friend that I'd met a nice guy and she said 'hes with someone' Damn all the best ones are taken.

juicy juicy you soooo know that's not fair to say that then leave!!!! lol.

gymboy has rung and asked if he's ok to go to the gym b4 our date n put it back an hour.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 13/09/2009 19:37

ninah - i know what you mean. relationship just a bit lacklustre at the moment.. maybe it'll pick up again when work calms down.

mousie - how did date go?

lou - did you wear the dress?

asbm - will catch you on msn. glad your still all coupled up you jammy sod.

belle - hope your having fun with gymboy.

janos - hope your enoying your wkd.

eve - shame he was taken. the good are usually as they are good and get kept. hard trekking down the decent ones who have become single again.

everyone else - hi hope you had nice wkd. just trying to remember what else has happened since i was last on.

as for me... i seen to have lost 24 hrs in what feels like 3 mins.

no idea where my head is at, or where its going as haven't slept. got kids to bed. now i'm going to potter about and join them.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 13/09/2009 19:39

belle - so what time will he turn up? are you talking after 9pm?

lou33 · 13/09/2009 19:42

i am not seeing him til next fri, but i wore it yesterday with skinny jeans

OP posts:
thesouthsbelle · 13/09/2009 19:47

I don't know he rang me at 6.30 and said do you mind if I go to the gym - so I say no it's fine, then he says ok i'll see u about half 8 so i was like ok see ya about 9, lol. then he rings me again at half 7 and says i'm at the gym will ring u when i'm done will be about 50 minutes. i'm like ok then. So am now sat here watching dr who with the bath run talking to my friend on facebook! Still not convinced i'm the only one but we shall see.

the question really is how have you lost 24 hours in 3 minutes and who is the irish bloke??

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 13/09/2009 20:02

irish bloke was from same batch beachbum came from.

i no longer have my POF profile.

kept in contact.

this was a totally off the cuff. "lets go for a drink and meet" thing. no intention of anything really happening.

resulted in a 24 hr blur, where i had to peel myself away.

and a huuuuge ...

Janos · 13/09/2009 20:02

Hey all.

juicy - hope you get a good nights sleep and feel more rested tomorrow.

eve - what a shame. But there are good ones out there, I know it!

lou bet the dress looked great.

mousie - glad your date went well! Dead chuffed for you.

Oh, and agree with asbm Jamie O does a fab chicken tikka masala (my sis made some for me, it was gorge).

belle - he could just be disorganised and have lost track of time? I'm often guilty of that

I had a lovely day on sat going over to see my friend and her daughter. We had cheesecake sitting out in the sun.

An man stuff - well, out of the blue exbf invited me to Bruges! I thought WTF? Asked him is he was drunk. No he says, dead serious. So, watch this space for whatever next week's drama is.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 13/09/2009 20:06

belle - not so sure he's seeing someone else is the prob... but kinda a pain to delay you as if you have nothing better to do than sit around all night waiting on him?... but then again... 9pm is my cut off. if someone coming to see me when i'm stuck in with dc i'm fine with it but i'm specific it has to be after 8pm so i'm positive they are sleeping. and before 9pm... or i'll have fallen asleep.

thesouthsbelle · 13/09/2009 20:06

juicy - go you! lol.

janos - not sure tbh. just have one of my funny feelings about this one - and after i'd decided y'day as well. ho hum. we shall see. intuition is always right. right?

thesouthsbelle · 13/09/2009 20:09

no don't mean seeing someone else tonight just in general.

re the cut off thing I know waht u mean - it's annoyed me a bit that he's thinking that I have nothing to do bar sit around for him, & we'd already both discussed y'day we weren't up to much/i'd be boyless from about 6 (as it was it was 3pm) plus he knows like most of us I like to make the most of my boyless time!

suppose i'd better actually think about having a bath & washing my hair really hadn't I! lol.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 13/09/2009 20:31

belle - is this the only day you get childfree?

thesouthsbelle · 13/09/2009 20:44

yup till next weekend. hence why i'm annoyed.

he's just rung is on his way now - i'm still not dressed thou - won't hurt him to wait for a change!

thesouthsbelle · 13/09/2009 20:46

so over the snogging now!

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 13/09/2009 20:59

belle - i'd be pissy at that too. surely he could go gym earlier and be at yours for 6pm and make most of free time... that seems really odd.

maybe he's a bit of gym addict...

Janos · 13/09/2009 21:25

belle - I agree, trust your instinct. If you get a 'hinky' feeling from someone, then there's usually a reason why.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 14/09/2009 08:08

janos - i'm with you on this one. trouble is even if they are not. the "hinky" feeling is sadly a sign you would never trust this person.

thesouthsbelle · 14/09/2009 10:23

I know I know - althou I get that instant red flags with everyone - gotta take a risk.

quickly thou said about last night it would appear he duidn't appriciate my thoughts on it was v apologetic thou, and says I 'have his attention' lol. but that's cool. as I said well you ahve mine as well till I get bored lol. has already text again today saying was good seeing each other last night. & also apparently he always tells the truth
