Where have all the fit, interesting and available men gone (pt 17)

[Remotew]

Has no-one beaten me to it yet?

Juicy sounding good.

WG old friend is worth seeing again.

Second not to arrange a meet up without me. Maybe down south in May.

hi

eve i am happy its going so well, and juice that sounds fun

louIs i agree with everything juice says sadly, sorry to hear your update

things still v good here, i am hoping to be online properly next week

mechanic was talking about taking us all away for a short break when he has done up a car he has to sell on

he told ds2 he loved me v much as well (ds2 asked him outright lol)

hello all.

still floating, althou mum has laptop n nan has phone lol.

will stop in as/when. glad you're all ok thou I assume.

Very quiet on here not much to report - gardener texts alot but I find it weird texting someone I don't know so can't really be bothered - he also seems a bit slow on the uptake.

Might be seeing exbf tomorrow evening.

Very busy and behind at work I am finding the whole work life thing very difficult at present and feel like giving up fgs I have been a working parent for nearly 13 years (3 of them a single parent) and it's starting to take its toll - I also have no early morning support so when there is something I need to get in early for like today I have to either delegate to someone else or what???

Life shouldn't have to be so hard. Exh is not really any help - he has his own life and informed me last night he is going for a weeks hol before Easter with new p and dts - to a luxury five star resort overseas. He is a boaster but it feels like he is rubbing it in - also won't be there when ds1 goes on a school holiday (again overseas) - think ds1 was a bit disappointed at that.

Sorry for moan need to get it off my (rather large due to PMT) chest!

SCL, lets hope he comes down with a tummy bug or gets bitten by mozzies or something. Exh that is. Do you have a choice with working? I will repeat something someone said to me when I was frazzled trying to juggle it all. It won't always be like this.

Very quiet on here isn't it. I had my date with Salesman this week. It went OK, I think. Might be seeing him over the weekend. I'm not that fussed atm, would like to keep it very irregular iyswim. I like him though but don't want to put myself or him under any pressure.

It is quiet, isn't it? glad your date went well eve.
Another ex horror here, he informs me by text today that he cannot see dc this weekend because he has lost his car keys
ffs
has been a month now and I am shattered
last weekend he could not because of skiing then family stuff the one before
Am thinking the novelty has worn off as he has been regular about access in the past

Hi all

very quiet at the moment - not heard from anyone even remotely interesting although there is a guy on OKC who has this to say
"I'm pretty successful in my chosen career and looking for special friends or that special someone who doesn't mind that I have some issues..

Basically I have continence problems (genetic malfunction) and wet the bed a lot. I have to wear nappies at night and this has scared my away from any relationships to date. I would be so embarassed. At least here I can be upfront about it. "

He even has some lovely pics of himself in his nappy .... am assuming that, rather than issues, he just has odd sexual preferences but I think, that on top of all the other internet weirdness, is about to put me off the whole net dating thing again for a while!

And gah at x's who keep reneging on their responsibilities - at least mine isn't around to let his kids, and me, down.

he posts pics of himself in the nappies?
that has to be one of the oddest usp's I've ever heard of

kdk - wow!!! where do you find these profile!!. i am amazed. truly i am.

ninah - hows the SOH thing going?

eve - so when are you to see salesman again? is anything arranged?

scl - you have fallen spectacularly off the wagon.... but at least your guaranteed a good night.

will you give gardener a chance.

belle - so... spoke to GB recently or have you given him the boot.

lou - glad to hear your doing fab with BF

everyone else how we all doing.

nothing new here.

not doing anymore dates till see whats happening with NZ forces dude. still just in contact with him.

soh, not bad, not too bad
minor exceptions for a spot of DIY/man jobs last weekend
weekends are my Achilles heelm to mix the body parts metaphor
however this one I will be not be getting the child free time I expected
what is everyone else up to? you sound quite struck by nz chappie juicy
my best friend has just emigrated over there she sent me some beach pics today

Not really got any plans to see Salesman again. I did invite him over to mine on Sunday to go out as DD will be home. He did say he might.

Kdk, that is just weired.

Juicy seems like you are very keen on the forces guy. Worth hanging out for.

Hi ladies, sorry to not have been around, this working full time lark has taken its toll. Actually am coping pretty well with work but means I dont get much chance to read/post.

Eve-glad you have been having a good time with the salesman

Lou-Glad things are ging so well for you and mechanic knew the L word would be around quickly lol but glad u feel the same too!

Juice-Sounds like you are quite taken by forces bloke, as you dont normally hold out for one bloke

belle-hows it going with you? I take it phone/laptop is with family to stop u relpying to GB?

KDK-that is weird, I want to know where u find these profiles too lol?

ninah-grr to ex's cancelling at last minute, mine hardly ever has dc's so can understand how u feel. mind u might make Soh easier lol

scl-it is hard work being a working mum I've always worked part time till recently but know what u mean about not having anyone early/late to help when u need it maybe u need to take a week off

Anyway not much happening here, mrjack has been a bit quiet this week but for good reasons really, has asked to see me sunday so am having a weekend having fun with kids

@ Betty and Juicy - sadly they usually find me! Will admit however that this one I spotted first - and if he sends me a message I shall delete every profile I have anywhere and go into hiding for my own safety! If you want to look he's on okcupid though strangely, he isn't showing up any more ....

ugh kdk that's gross

I need to eat my words gardener has asked when we can meet.

And saw Mr Yorke at work today - tried to hide but he saw me - kept saying don't forget me and also txt me after to say how good it was to see me. However I have decided he might be not as scary as I thought but still not communicating with him. Also my work colleague witnessed all of it so good if things blow up again.

juicy I hope so. Might be putting on fancy dress

he's been snapped up kdk
you weren't quick enough

nah, found him ... and two others who seem to like the same thing - anyone fancy a set of triplets??? Honestly, I kid you not (wish I was), there seem to be three blokes - all English!! and all pictured in all their nappied glory - maybe should get Tanya Byron or supernanny, or god forbid, she who must not be named, on the case ...

is this on a free site or one u pay for?? loo

just popping in for a quick catch-up after a hectic week
eve glad things seem to be going at a pace which suits you,has he decided what he's doing this w/e yet?!
juicy you're sounding a bit smitten lol.but i bet it's helping you get over irish
scl are you seeing exbf?
llaj(as was)nice to have you back,but sorry to hear what's been happening.he sounds as tho he's suffering from seriously cold feet as well as bfs.shitty and shoddy way to be treated but v commonsome blokes are incredibly cowardly and it does nothing to help you move on when there's still unfinished business.
lou how are things your end?have you made any progress yet with a new house?
betty
kdk well,i've heard it all now
ninah a date would do you good,must email you it's been a while lol
montywill answer yours too
nothing much to report with me,still with dp,just wishing that i could sell my sodding house so we can move in together

hi all, how are you?

well.

was out last night. and friend jumped on my toe with hr stiletto's..i was sober and still managed to get injured. bloody everywhere. so just came home. driving was a pig as it was getting swoolen pretty quickly. when i get my peep toes off.. there's a dirty big chunk missing from the tip of my toe and the nail is already blackening.

why oh why do i have yo be so accident prone.

asbm - i would say i am 100% over irish... yet... when i got injured it was him who i text when i got home to tell because i knew he would be up ...he was out on the piss... no suprise there. but 20 text messages later i prove yet again i really am crap it SOH.... i said several time.."right, not going to a reply"... but i did [rolls eyes].

and... this morning at 5am.. and unknown text sent me a message asking "how was my night"... i was sober. so i know for sure i never gave out my number.. how very odd.

before my injury had a great night. went to opening of a new columbian restaurant with late night bar which had lots of shows on. belly dancers and campiero (sp?)

so...... what did you all get up to this wkd. its very quiet on here so you all must be enjoying having RL's for a change..

ouch juice that sounds painful

It is very quiet on here isnt it, ive not much else to report. went to a friends with kids last night and woke up to more snow, almost didnt get home but made it in the end!

Hi everyone

Had a lovely night last night at a dinner party with some fellow parents from my dts' school - I was the only one on my tod but, hey ho, getting used to that! We ended up reminiscing about life before kids and I didn't get home till half past two this morning - and a tad tiddly after several glasses of champagne and red wine.

On man front - oddly enough - and after several weeks have finally had an email back from the guy sponge contacted for me on match - all he said was how's school - no sorry for not replying for so long so don't think I'll be bothering to reply.

Also, after several weeks' ignoring me, birdman visited my profile again today - not messaged me but haven't written him off completely!

That's about it - not even any freaks have contacted me this week ... am losing my touch obviously.

Hope everyone's had a good week - and, getting away from the subject of men or lack thereof, if anyone has any good ideas/experience of reluctant readers I've got a post on the primary forum re my dd ...

Hope you toe isn't too painful Juice. I've been guilty of stabbing people on the dance floor with stiletoes, always feel bad when it happens.

I invited Salesman here tonight. Said he could have dinner with us and the works but he said he couldn't make it. No explanation but will ring in the week to arrange something. Well he won't get invited again not for Sunday roast anyway. Was a bit dissapointed but hey ho.

eve - sunday roast with dd is a bit of a scarey thing though so early on... especially if dd hasn't exactly been welcoming to him..

and was he out last night for drinks at all.... i dare say sunday roast.. where there's a person making things awkward.. with a stinking hangover.... i would most definately decline also.

but.... if he was just offered to come to be with you then seems a bit rude not to give a reason why to decline.

kdk - REPLY.... thing is... he could have been at a very early dating stage with someone previously. and didn't want to mess around seeing them and stringing you along. so simply didn't reply to you direct.

or he could have been on holiday

or he could have been ill

or he could have been up to his eye balls at work. POF is definately not something i even contemplate checking even if i know i have messages if i'm up to my eyes in work/life stresses.

just reply!!

betty - dinner sounded good

@ juice, I hear what you're saying but just feel it was done more in the spirit of game-playing - I had mentioned in the mail I sent him that I didn't even know what his original message to me on match had said ... and asked him a few questions - he neither bothered saying what his message to me on match had said nor answering the questions I'd asked. All he said was how's school (not sure what that's about as I don't teach in a school and never said I did ... don't know - just can't be bothered with a lot of arsey game-playing/too cool for school sort of thing-
here is his email 'so Katie how is the school coming? Oh I would not worry if it was uncomplimentary...what is worse is that it was truly complimantary and it is lost to the ether world'

that's it ... nothing really to respond to so don't think I can be arsed ....

kdk - oooh.. that was all his email said???

sorry.. i wouldn't reply to that either. lol.
