Where have all the men gone? thread 14

[ninah]

it won't accept any more messages ladies. As you can see I decided it was time to get less picky.
Lou, I hope you didn't leave your phillips

DD is 15. Very territorial over me. She isn't the type of teen to go out much. One day hopefully she will have her own social life.

i am fine i was just over tired i think

i went to lb's last night and had a really lovely relaxed chilled time, watching a film, having a couple of glasses of wine and an early night (which meant i didnt feel knackered driving back this morning)

the house is not so tidy as when i left last night though

I have tidied a little bit today as having girls round this fri night and won't get much time after today. I am providing wine cos last Fri I drove and snatched the half bottle of wine my friend had bought (was meant to drink it there) and took it home to drink. I was like a woman on a mission.

Was going to meet the giant for a coffee today but am not sure he is just wanting to be friends. Anyway he couldn't make it then angled to meet later today but said I was busy. Might meet next week.

Samename also wants to meet up - I can only do this Sat in the next three weeks. He's not worth paying a bbsitter for atm. He needs to fit in with me. Either way going to have frank talk with him wld rather do it face to face.

Have also submitted all info for housing benefit so am hoping I get something even if it's a small amount it will help cos I'm in dire straits despite earning reasonable salary. .

There has to something wrong somewhere when this is the case, surely?

hi all,

haven't posted in while as been hectic with studying. trying to limit my internet useage outwith studying.

hard when pof is also a bit hectic. thinking of hiding profile for a bit.

been for dinner again with beachbum.as friends. still pretty hard to do.

been dinner,shopping expedition, then lunch, then long drive, then chill out with dvd with irish ... as friends.not hard at all. just kinda happened.lost a whole wkd with him again... but without the sex ... and met one of his friends.... who refused to believe we were just friends now. the look on his face when i said i was now an ex but still so friendly was a mastercard one.

speaking to a few on pof. met one couple of coffee dates since last week.

hows everyone else?

belle - still left your phone at your mums ?? whats latest.

scl - so will you meet samename on sat?

lou - sounds nice with LB.

eve - whats update with your potentials.

mousie - when is bf back? this wkd or last?

janos ... but at least you gave it a try and you know know. no longer wondering "what if"

WWYD

DS2s football team have social jsut before Christmas think all the other parents are together - do I go alone, take a female friend or take a man with me. I would like to go being new to the team.

exh was referred to as the phantom by one of the other parents sad but also amusing!!

scl - i'd take anyone you feel you will have fun with. female or male it wont matter. i'd be just as content with a female company than a male.

We move house tomorrow.

Am quite stressed with this and other things, work, money, ex, etc...

BF was back briefly this weekend and away again today. Should see him next wk sometimes (DD and I away fri-sun at my mum's this week). I miss him.

Sorry just so drained to not be much of a support

Mousie - moving is very stressful - have moved twice since split three years ago.

Hope you've got lots of help.Tho actually the only help we had each time was the removal firm. I do remember feeling very alone both times. Actually can't believe my family didn't offer to help. As at that time dcs were really quite young (just 5 and 9).

Ah well I'm an independent woman.

Think the landlord is happy for us to stay here long term if we can afford it!!

i am shattered from all the driving i have done today, so going for an early night after flashforward

spoken to lb this evening, i will catch up with him at some point tomorrow, but taking dd2 out for the day, so dont know when

sin - so do we assume that same name is now out of the question totally? but agree thou he should be fitting in with your plans not the other way around. Also you should get HB, I get £77 per week, (on a PT salary of £13K p.a) so fingers crossed - does your council do the bit online where you can check if you're eligible? Take whoever you think you'll feel most comfortable with/have the most fun with.

mousie - awww bless you. is there anything we can help advise on at all? good luck with the move.

rj - hiding your profile! lol.

Lou - hope you had a nice realxing time with LB.

gymboy saga is still ongoing. he apparently realised his feelings the same time he realised he's be the boy's step dad we're going to talk in the week - I suggested end of the week/maybe go for a drink. he's thinking tomorrow.

it was really relaxing yes, but we do always have a good time anyway

scl - this is our 3rd move, though the first was with literally what I could carry. Not going to have any help but the removal firm and a 2 year old to entertain all day. And back to work tomorrow! - like you say, you just get on with it. I am hoping to stay put for a while this time.

got tesco vouchers in for hotel break. was gonna use them for going to newcastle or manchester next wkd for finishing my xmas shopping.

but.... look at this hotel i found

www.fallenangelhotel.com

oooh that looks nice juice!

i'm waiting on them emailing me back about availability.

Looks good Juicy, how much is the normal cost per night? There are a couple of places round here doing this sort of thing. Turning a run of the mill small hotel into state of the art themed rooms and charging a fortune!

Not a lot happening with me. One from POF hasn't been in touch for a few days. One from abroad is kind of bugging me know so I'm holding back on communication. We haven't even met and his attempts to text photos have failed. Sometime to do with a UK number.

One that lives around the corner has invited me to call round. He's got my number and will have to make an effort or it's not happening.

I emailed a guy I met from POF, the one I fell for, just before our thread started. He's volunteering overseas but replied and we've exchanged a couple of emails. Only in a wondered how you are getting on kind of way.

Now not 'know'.

ranges from £120 - £250...

hotel is booked. going with irish.

eve - when is volunteer due back?

in what capacity are you going with irish?

i cant keep up

friends. pj's are to be purchased and swimwear in the jacuzzi/sauna :-)

Don't have a clue when he's due back but don't reckon we will see each other.

Enjoy your hotel and the company. I cannot keep up either.

tis simple.

irish is exbf and now friend. which is easy and no problem, get on great as friends, not awkward at all.

beachbum is friend which is difficult and awkward.

date from last week has confessed an odd sleeping condition

As bad as thumb sucking Juicy?
