Monty100 · 13/01/2010 22:17

High five you two. lol (Monty returns to adolescence).

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 13/01/2010 22:17

i liked the twister dress...

also think you get some wicked she-ra/wonder woman outfits in fancy dress shops at the moment!!

hows everyone doing.. was over at friends watching "the women"... nothing like a good man hating movie to cheer you up

aseriouslyblondemoment · 13/01/2010 22:23

lol @ juice
how are you feeling anyhow?
and any more thoughts re: fri or are you a bit meh?!
and
monty any more suggestions appart from boy george?

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 13/01/2010 22:27

oh.... ninah - hows the hand sitting... i've gone a whole day without texting...one day at a time similar to AA style approach... how many days have you got to?..belle - i think you should join us too

AA is alcholics.. what shall we call our self help group for those who get the horn and try and persuade our friend to come and feed our addiction?

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 13/01/2010 22:29

fri might be kinda fun

you know me.. i like to meet new people.. it's just an afternoon coffee.. and anything could happen between now and then. so might not even happen.

cant remember what height he is though ... think i'll wear flats. having a suspicion he's just 6ft... dont want to wear killer heels and be towering over him.

lou33 · 13/01/2010 22:30

not heard of it juice

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 13/01/2010 22:31

not heard of what... our self help group??? i made it up for me and ninah ... or the film?

hatesponge · 13/01/2010 22:32

evening everyone!

thank you for all the comments re my profile ...I havent shown it to any of my RL friends so really appreciate your input.

I take the point about my photo - I did have the other one (no cleavage!) as my profile pic until this week but the one I have now just feels more me Haven't had any pervy/dodgy comments though, so either the men on match are all v polite, or the fact it also says I'm a lawyer means they are slightly too scared to make any lewd comments

I will change the children bit though....as to whether I'd consider anyone without children, well my preference for a LTR would be someone else with children, I just think it makes life easier....I'll admit this view may be clouded by thoughts of all the guys I know my age without kids who all behave as though they were about 10......

belle/kdk - Match is ok, is my first ever experience of the whole internet dating thing so nothing to compare it to. My view thus far is that the men on there by and large seem fairly decent and respectable, no real weirdos or pervs, and I have had 2 dates (& 3 other offers of dates) even if they didnt feel any romantic inclinations to me! - so not all bad.

belle - some boy george type thing would make a great costume i think. as for what I think about gymboy's behaviour....

Monty100 · 13/01/2010 22:48

Eveing Sponge - I didn't see the other photo. Glad you liked the feedback on here.

ASBM - only others I can think of are Olivia Newton John or Cher?

As Sponge says Belle, the Boy George costume would be great fun.

sincitylover · 13/01/2010 22:52

Ooh getting all excited with talk of Boy George - he is indeed a national treasure and have always liked him his voice and his wit!

I met him at a Spanish airport a couple of years ago - my dcs were mortified. I started to talk to his brother at the carousel and he then included BG in the convo. He was very sweet.

juice - re self help group - I would join that one!

Dcs have driven me absolutely mad tonite to the point of almost tears/giving up (tho of course the latter is not an option). They have fought almost continously since exh left (wondering if there is a link there) and been rude and obnoxious. Its prob and combo of that and the long dark nights but not acceptable all the same. DS1 witnessed a fight after school as well and despite protestations think it has affected him.

Happy Days!

Monty100 · 13/01/2010 22:59

Commiserations SCL. Sounds like dcs are a bit unsettled. It'll pass eh? Have a nightcap.

What are we like about Boy George. I saw him in Heathrow once. I was awe struck.

lou33 · 13/01/2010 23:03

lol i mean the film

hatesponge · 13/01/2010 23:09

have just checked on match - have had another msg from the guy who sent me his phone no in his first email. cant decide if this is keen or a bit he only emailed me the first time 2 days ago....

aseriouslyblondemoment · 13/01/2010 23:09

welcome to my world scl
that's a BIG yes to you going as boy george then belle!
and before i mention the rather obvious..wasn't this meant to be a dating thread?!

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 13/01/2010 23:10

the women

scl - all welcome in the group... how many days have you managed without texting exbf?

and i also say you should have a nightcap too.

just off the phone from fri's date... may i say... he actually sounds.. em.. rather normal...he's from my old area i grew up in. seems kinda down to earth. have only seen a headshot of what he looks like. seemed kinda normal looking too... says he's 6ft. but doesn't mind if i wear heels.

seems too normal.. i'm gonna turn up and he's gonna have a peg leg or 3 ears isn't he??

lou33 · 13/01/2010 23:24

you never know the peg leg may be something else

aseriouslyblondemoment · 13/01/2010 23:30

lou!!
good job juicy is a bit of a dating vet or you'd have scared her off with that lol

aseriouslyblondemoment · 13/01/2010 23:31

sponge what's he said now?!

Monty100 · 13/01/2010 23:32

Rofl - Lou you're incorrigible.

ASBM - I was thinking that a couple of messages ago.

Juice - don't be negative. You just never know.

Must be nn time.

hatesponge · 13/01/2010 23:37

lou

scl- I think your boys are similar ages to mine (mine are 8 and 11, elder one started secondary last sept) they fight almost constantly, would say am hoping it's a phase but they have been like it ever since I can remember They do get on well sometimes, but even then they are just so...boisterous. Elder one is also getting increasingly stroppy & has bags of attitude. I often have to come and hide upstairs just for 5 mins peace and quiet....

aseriouslyblondemoment · 13/01/2010 23:38

indeed it is for me too!
must be a nasty one if you're off MN monty,am suggesting a nice toddy to take to bed,that's bound to make you pissed feel better
and hope you're muddling thru too eve,forgot to ask how you were doing earlier
nn all

hatesponge · 13/01/2010 23:40

asbm- he said he thought he would write again and ask me to get in touch & some stuff about his friends writing his profile as he found it difficult to say much about himself.

am really not sure.....

lou33 · 13/01/2010 23:53

dont pretend you guys didnt think the same as me lol

thesouthsbelle · 14/01/2010 08:02

boy george - hmmm deffo strong contender, apparently there's already several women woman and madonnas so those are out.

juicy - yeah i'll join your group - my phone's been left in work again. he emiled me y'day thou to send me a link or other put 3 xxx's but I have as usual so far ignored it - he knows what I want.

sin re dc's - could it be the're pushing you to see if you'll leave as well - feeling a bit insecure type thing? I have with DS the day after I don't really see him, him being so hyped and wanting 110% attention etc, theory is his dad went so will I?!? how old are your DC's?

juicy - go on the date u know u want to! lol.

text sailor y'day to see if he still wanted to do coffee - nada up to half 2 so I would assume no then.

better get up I guess & get dressed ready for work. what day are we today - is it nearly the weekend?!? I need a rest so XH had better be down.
