I've had a really nice day with my lovely girl, and hope to be having a good evening with NM, even though we won't be able to get out. Things seem pretty good here. What are you up to tonight lou - are you feeling any better?

i was invited round to see a friend but i declined cos this cough keeps me up in the night, plus i still have some residual pain from my trapped nerve and feel a bit under par

also i have to take the kids to see their father tomorrow and if i went to see this friend i know it would end up as a late one and i would feel crap and not up to driving

so i am going to stay in and have a couple of beers and hopefully get a better sleep tonight

lb is out at an all night party djing, spoke to him a couple of times today, he will not be back to his until morning i would imagine

the thought of that makes me lose the will to live lol

have a good evening lou....

hi to everyone else, hope you are all having fab weekends.. im about to lay on the sofa and watch xfactor...

I managed to stay offline for all of two days! LOL. i logged on this morning and he msn'ed me straight away Ended up talking ALL day ( luckily childfree weekend hey!) I let the conversation been led by him and he brough up various things that i wanted to discuss anyway... WE arent going to meet until after my operation in a few weeks time, so probably a month from now. He is going to travel here, meet in public place etc.. go from there. We both said that we were a little bit freaked out about how things were between us.... as its not really very sensible and does in fact sound totally nuts. Then he said he was really looking forward to being in a full relationship with me.......
This was not what i was originally looking for at all. I was not expecting anything like this to happen, and i have been on dating sites for over a year, and have been on a ton of dates.. but nothing like this at all. I sort of feel like im 18 again. Im trying very hard to be sensible as really it is ridiclous and i havent met him.. but i am really looking forward to.

I do also realise that i do sound quite nuts

Annoyed, have you seen each other on webcam? Probably the best way to get a good idea if you two are going to hit it off big time when you meet.

I'm having a quiet night. X factor and a cup of tea. Stayed at a friends last night and I hit the wine too hard.

I have only chatted to one guy from POF on the webcam that was the cute 24 year old from Juicy's neck of the woods. I must admit I enjoyed it, there was no funny business either. Decided 24 was a bit too young for me so didn't persue a meeting

lou33 · 10/10/2009 20:39

24 would be too young for me too

thesouthsbelle · 10/10/2009 22:28

go eve.

well i've just got back from my nan's house - sat in & watched x factor with her & my aunty - oh the joy of it! lol. Loving danyl thou and think they judges were proper harsh on him.

gymboy is out with his brother apparently, he said he'd ring when he got to wales but didn't - I said would ring tomorrow, not too bothered really about it.

annoyed - up to you on webcam really, i'm not a fan per se but they can be good in some respects as well.

i wont have webcam because i like to be able to sit at the pc looking like roadkill and noone being able to see

witcheseve · 10/10/2009 23:02

Lou you don't have to switch it on.

I watched X factor. I love Joe, he's from Sheilds and so was my mum. Think I've mentioned this before.

Going to bed now. Had an alcohol free Sat night for a change.

lou33 · 10/10/2009 23:05

no point in having one if i am never going to switch it on

Morning - i was expecting to get a stern talking to for being ridiclous you know girls....
I dont have webcam. I dont want one. Like Lou, i like to be able to sit at pc in pjs with no make up on!! He has one and did offer... but i said no, it wasnt fair for him. We have exchanged a lot of pics... and like ive said, hes very googable, so have found more pics than he has sent me. He also owns two forums, and from his posts he seems exacally the same. There is also a meet up bit ( like on here) and those that have met him have said how nice he is ( pics of him and them, so not made up people!)

To be honest, its very very odd. I didnt think things like this happened to people, or did but they were sad geek people! I still keep thinking how sad i must sound.. and im trying really hard to keep a foot on the ground, because, it is possible that we meet and dont like each other....... unlikely, but possible.

i asked him to replay me the money i loaned him today, sent him a message reminding him

can you believe exh actually had the cheek to try and look pissed off with me when i told him sending me an email this morning saying he didnt have the money was a bit too late?!

he gave me a load of old flannel about why he didnt have it, apparently i cant get it til friday

i said it didnt really matter why, if he knew he didnt have it he should have told me so i could reorganise my finances, cos i really need it this weekend

sigh

Just looked, sorry Lou don't think you will ever get much joy with the ex, just hope for the worst then you might be surprised once in a while. You've coped without his input so it will be OK, but if his presence is giving the DC's aggro then that it the time to react.

Just realised after we spoke last night that I made a joke about sending TD some money to come over. That was only a joke on here and tongue in cheek, so could see how it looked when he said he could come and visit. Girls I didn't offer any money honest it was just a co-incidence.

I once lent a bf £800 and he dissappeared then 2 years later I got it back. Never again.

Not sure what's going on but whatever it is you shouldn't be out of pocket by 1p.

Hi. Can I join, I can't find one either.

witcheseve · 11/10/2009 22:31

Don't know Lou except don't part with any money.

Fluffy what have you done to try.

sincitylover · 11/10/2009 22:55

lou that's tough. I have got abt 14 quid to last til wed.

Have had a hectic weekend mainly taking dcs to sport related activities. Exh is on holiday!!

Not that he does much of that anyway.

No news really on man front. Haven't spoken to samename all weekend or exbf.

Feel rather odd at ds2s new football team - seems entirely composed of happy couples plus some extended families - they are pleasant enough but for first time since I split with exh feel a bit weird on that level. ds1s team wasn't like that it was more like mums utd.

exh also has some batty idea he is taking ds1 to his hometown next w/e which is some 300 miles away not sure how that's meant to work - ds2 has football and I have made arrangements to see samename on sat night.

Baah!!

Met one bloke, went out for about 6 weeks until it went pear shaped, now I'm on plenty of fish
