asbm - nah... dont know. doubt it. he's totally bonkers. he's just gone offline as his mates have grabbed him for the pub. gave him my PM and told him to use that rather than POF if he wanted a decent response as i only check POF once every couple of days and he was planning on emailing tomorrow night.

he's really crackers. and i think possibly another one of these incredibly good fun pisshead types i attract .. will have to suss out if he can be sober as well as out with lads at wkds.

Monty100 · 15/01/2010 21:13

ASBM - Al, fast, they don't fit in the same sentence. rofl. I don't really count though because I didn't 'meet' him in the lifetime of this thread.

Juice - steady on there chum. It's a rocky ride, the wagon.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 15/01/2010 21:14

any more from pegleg?

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 15/01/2010 21:18

not since he text asking if we could meet again. when i said it was too soon for another date... i meant i said it was too soon for me to be dating so soon after last relationship.. he was very understanding and just wanted me to be happy.

aww bless... he was really really lovely. ... but i really really cant stand that neck cricking.. and if he's doing that on first date.. think of the awful habits he would have by 6 months down the line once comfortable

hi ladies just checking in, not much going on here seen mrjack yesterday and he came and fixed my toilet lol have invited him to my friends tommorow as she is having a party but dont think he'll come and in some ways i will be nervous if he does cos kids will be there but we'll see, anyway things still going well but still quite casual. Oh and when i told dc's a friend had come to fix the toilet last night dd1 says 'yeah i know it was a man i heard u talking and u went and got things for him' lol and there was me thinking they were asleep!

gonna need to go back and see what u lot have been up to now!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 15/01/2010 22:13

true but you're still our beacon of hope!
pmg is in 2nd place shortly followed by me!
monty me thinks it's us lot who need the fascinators lol
juicy that's a good point,but to be fair to you you obv.put men at there ease early on(and no i'm not taking the p here)which makes it easier for you to say NEXT!doesn't it?
others aren't so lucky and discover these red flags habits later on
lol @ betty's kids...they're not stupid you know,god knows what my trio come out with @ school circle time
even juicy's ds cottoned on and he's only a little fella

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 16/01/2010 09:05

asbm - perhaps.. but it's perhaps that i dont put any sort of act on... i just turn up being me... for example.. met pegleg straight from work. hadn't changed or anything. was semi smart in trousers and shirt.. but had giant waterproof hiking jacket and hiking boots on as my work involves traisping about all day in this snow at the moment. hahaha.... i'm sure i looked a lady.. although he had been warned to be fair.

but even so.... cricking your neck...really a bad habit for me. i dont mind at all farting, burping, ear wax hunting, toe nail picking, knuckle cracking... he just had to do the one i really cant stand... and right beside me in cinema seat where it was loud as hell as about 3 cm from my ear.

and yes... all you guys having a laugh about fascinators are just deflecting from yourselves

i say though its gonna be asbm up first.. unless lou goes for some sort of eloping to gretna green (only 1 hr drive for me).. or vegas (always wanted an excuse to visit vegas)

aseriouslyblondemoment · 16/01/2010 10:40

so if he hadn't have been a neck cricker would you have seen him again?
as for me being first,hmm it's poss i guess,tho no date has been chosen yet!

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 16/01/2010 11:02

asbm - yeah.. he def in running for another date till he cricked his neck.

you know... i think i'm am coming up with some fab excuses to stay single .. this one tops the "dont like his hair one"

aseriouslyblondemoment · 16/01/2010 11:19

i think you enjoy the single life too much anyhow and i don't blame you for it!
but you do realise that when you're least expecting it somebody v.special will come along and sweep you off your feet

thesouthsbelle · 16/01/2010 11:59

hey all will catch up after, on way out to meet the sailor. not seeing GB, but have a confession, did see him y'day told him he knows my stance & can't see him again. he gave me a peck, said he's torn ahhhhhhh!!! said he'd ring me today.

He's certainly not liking my dating other people.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 16/01/2010 12:17

aww shame eh?!
enjoy your date with the sailor

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 16/01/2010 12:19

asbm - the longer i'm single the more i enjoy it ... its nice not to have to arrange plans around a fellas needs.. got enough resposiblilities and requirements on my time as it is.

belle - tough for gb.. and hope you enjoy date and dont answer gb call.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 16/01/2010 12:22

ahh but the secret is that they have to fit in around you

lou33 · 16/01/2010 13:57

afternoon

woke up this morning to find ds2 had crept into bed with myself and mechanic at some point in the night, bless him

then a couple of hours ago asked if i would let the mechanic move in with us properly!

i deflected the subject

Betty79 · 16/01/2010 13:59

juice-lol know what u mean i quite like being single most of the time...

belle-enjoy ur date with the sailor, and agree with juice dont answer call from gb! def tough for him if he doesnt like you dating anoyone else!

asbm-so there might be a few fascinators needed soon then

not taking mrjack to party tonight text him and said i dont want to confuse kids, he agreed. Am looking foward to a bottle of vino and a good gossip with my friend tonight whilst kids wreckplay at her house

has anyone else got any dates coming up? sponge? kdk? how's the online dating going for u both?

Betty79 · 16/01/2010 14:00

lou-aww bless ds2, must be nice that the kids like him so much

kdk · 16/01/2010 14:17

ta for asking Betty but zilch action here - am at my usual point of (once again) opting out - just find it all too soul-destroying for me. The ones I'm interested aren't interested in me and vice versa ... am waiting for a decent take-away delivery boy - and then just got to wait til he grows up/starts shaving ....

aseriouslyblondemoment · 16/01/2010 14:20

aww think ds2 is mechanic's shadow
it's lovely that he's got a decent bloke in his life lou aft being let down so often by his dad
lol @ betty
no doubt your dcs would introduce him as 'the man who fixed our toilet'
any more plans to see mrjack?
and the fascinators can stay in the shop for now as no date is set..and it's not official yet tho a few friends know and obv MN now too
tbh i'm more focused on buying the house we want and having a fresh start with the kids

kdk · 16/01/2010 14:21

big congrats asbm - lovely to know that it all works out for some of us - chuck the bouquet this way - not that I would ever do the marriage bit again but maybe would work for at least a date!

Janos · 16/01/2010 14:24

Well you lot looks like I have a date for Friday! Panic, panic!

Right, going to catch up on last few posts.

kdk · 16/01/2010 14:29

Keep calm and carry on Janos - you've got the best part of a week to decide what to wear etc Where are you going ... and more importantly who with?

aseriouslyblondemoment · 16/01/2010 14:33

thanks kdk
i always vowed never again and tbh i do find the thought of it all rather scary
but as i said the first step is to move in properly together
in theory he could move in here but as it was the family home we decided a fresh start was better for all of us
you will get a date,i know you will
have you completely given up with frd?
janos you have a week to prepare for this and for monty to tease you lol
sponge how are you doing btw?

Janos · 16/01/2010 14:33

asbm - what is this about bouquets? Do you have some news over here?

juicy - what is that neck cricking thing? It sounds gross. Blimey. Still amazed at your energy! Know what you mean about the liking being single thing. I enjoy it too but have moments where I yearn for cosy domestic set up.

lou - glad things still going great guns with mechanic, hope you're recovering and getting lots of rest. And at DS2, so sweet. DS creeps into mine more often than not. Woken many a time to find him there!

belle - gymboy really does have an undeservedly high opnion of himself doesn't he. Do understand the hard to say no bit, Been there myself.

forthebest - welcome, I'm 35 tho have been single for a few years. Don't fret about meeting men, older women are where it's at, apparently.

kdk - how's it going with your snazzy profile? Any joy?

Janos · 16/01/2010 14:35

asbm. I know.

This guy is Mr Sporty. Thing is, my idea of exercise is walking from the sofa to the fridge and back again. LOL.

Mind you that never put the exbf and he's a real exercise freak.

Don't know where we are going or when yet..
