where have all the fit, interesting and available men gone (part 18)

[DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE]

part 18.... jeeze 17 threads have past...17 threads worth of dating excitment/disasters.

wonder what number 18 will bring

any predictions anyone?

wedding/co-habitation for someone must be due by now.

hope you're all well. i'm still plodding here.

marine-

boss - hmm, is a giggle but tbh pretty sure it's a non starter. (quite gald about it)

green - not heard form (am glad)

XH - being more attentive etc at the mo not sure what's goin on with him at the mo - think he's worried about the impending tour of afgan, as keeps tellilng me joey will be provided for still etc. bit worried, but not so much.

anyhow off to catch up again.... ooh and did I say....marine..... lol.

me aseriouslyblonde?

I'm in Gloucestershire

cake - hiya & welcome to the mad house.

juicy - hope you're having fun with forces and yes FB man (boss) still talking still odd text had a conversation, but think as I say non starter - for one thing he's an hour away, for another I really want to be single when I go on my butlins reunion and also to college so but he's nice to talk to for a bit.

dolly twat - i'm currently talking on smooch - there's been a few who are ok (boss being one of those) few knobs - (green being one of those) loll. few who are 45+ emailing me incl one of 54 (HONESTLY PEOPLE!!!!) I mean not snobby per se but it's like have a word mate honestly it's not gonna happen is it! lol.

eve/ninah - lucky chair? lol. it's right thou I think independance even for me - althou i'm in/out with various people, the thing that does cause problems is me not wanting to give up my own space & have someone in it sharing it. is there ever a point when you decide it's right for someone to join it? (sorry wasn't about last night and won't be tonight either)

hope you're all ok anyhow, today i'm 28 and keep saying the phrase to myself..... 'I do not need a man to complete my life' coupled with pretty much finding amazement in everything DS does right now i'm quite content - is it odd to have your child as your best mate when he's 4?!? lol. Also best bud looks like she's going thru a break up as well with well - an idiot man. (althou can't say that for obv reason - and tbh a bully again can't say it) so off with her tonight for a bottle of vino & chinese & sitting the world to rights lol.

happy birthday to you
happy birthday to you
happy birthday dear belle....................
...happy birthday to you!!!!
hope you have a fab nite out
dolly i'm in worcs and i used FRD which was pretty good to me to be fair as i did meet my dp from there, however my search(ie what frd threw at me)did bring me into contact with the black country

and across into warks
this was a 25mile radius search btw

Happy Birthday Belle, sounds like you are in good spirits.

Hiy'all ...

sorry for being out of touch and will try to keep up with what everyone's been up ... or wants to be up to, more's the point ...

I'm not really bothering with any of the sites atm - I check in if I get a message/wink and 9 times out of 10 it's someone who I take one look at and log out again!

I agree with eve and belle (and anyone else who's said it) - I don't NEED a man - and in view of the fact that I'm 45, got kids, don't want anymore, not looking for a dad for them, not got a huge amount of spare time and have absolutely ZERO time for idiots/munters/most of the guys who seem to be available and interested in me in London - it's just as well ....

Am wondering though if anyone has tried the Sara Beeny site as am beginning to think that
meeting someone who another woman has vouched for is at least a way of avoiding players/eejits/psychos and the seriously delusional ...

Am off to fundraising thing at school tonight - a night out with 200 couples, please think of me!

Hi ladies,

well speed dating was fun, def worth a night out! Didnt meet anyone that I would see again, got 1 match but tbh he wasnt really my type i just thought he was cute. Have been told there was also 8 other men that were interested in me lol so thats a nice confidence booster. The 3 minutes you get goes so quickly and there was only one bloke that seemed to just talk about himself and didnt ask anything about me. And this said bloke i ended up having a bit of a row with when it was over he asked my friend during her 3 minutes 'how heavy she was?' she's not skinny but not huge either and is self conscious of her weight so i got angry on her behalf. he came to sit with us just after the event so i told him he was rude! I was a bit drunk by think point lol

Hi Betty been waiting for your report. Shame there wasn't anyone worth seeing again. How did the match work, did you tick him and he you? How did they tell you about the interest from the others? I don't think I could do this myself, did you feel you were in a cattle market? Sorry for all the questions just really interested.

. Glad you marked his card, excuse the pun.

It was a bit odd when we arrived cos obviously everyone knew we were there for the same reason, me and my friend were like giggling school girls. She was really nervous when we got there, but has said she really enjoyed it too despite one idiot! We had to wait around for a bit then sat at a table, i was in a booth with another girl sat at other side of me so we kept comparing notes ha ha u got 3 mins to chat then a whistle was blown and the blokes moved round.

Got an email about the match and other people expressing interest earlier. You have to write the persons name on a score card for each on and tick yes or no. Tbh there were a few who were ok but just not for me, maybe im too picky ha ha the macth as nice as he was isnt really my type.

Oh well at least you all enjoyed it.

Well my friend has just said she got 4 matches so thats good

sounds like you had fun betty
don't know I could do this tho, it might be a little brutal for the weary and shopsoiled
happy birthday belle!
anyone here tried swk? after last night's exploits I have a message and I am trying to decide if it is worth subscribing
his intro is 'i am 43 and don't have a beer belly', I thought that was rather nice
he has hair, too, apparently

what's swk?

single with kids, sorry

ahh!!
do you think he actually is tho?
have you not thought about giving frd a whirl after all it's been kind to me
come on ninah get your profile on and you can have a nosey

half the people on swk havent got kids lol

so are u on the look out again then ninah?

ohh betty you are cynical lol
what's happ with the trucker btw?

erm not sure about trucker, have been texing still and said we will go out next week but not arranged day yet. He did say he's not been too well this weekend so we'll see. Think i'll soh for a day or so and see if he texts me about it, otherwise dont think he's that interested.

no he def has a dd, she is in the picture and he looks nice a bit worn but then so am I
check him out Karl 43 from Warks
lol betty I did notice a surprising amount of desperados with no kids! it's that single (ie desperate and grateful) milf vibe they're hoping for I guess silly fools
I looked at frd once before, I think I'm still on their email list actually - good point!

get looking then...and if you're not sure whether to sign up or not you can use their 5 days for a fiver off your mobile
and if you come up with anyone decent you can get me to have a nose just in case it's one of my cast-offs!!

ninah - I'm a member of swf - not sure how as I never paid - think I got a freebie for some reason so if you want anyone contacted, let me know .... I have to say I've had a look in Warks - didn't see Karl but there do seem to be some alright looking and sounding blokes round there! Unlike London - last message I got was from john 58 - look and weep if you dare!

Think the not having kids thing is because the dating site is run by a company who do lots of dating sites and it pulls profiles from the other sites ie not necessarily blokes with children if that makes sense?

Anyway, better get ready for my exciting night out NOT - but hey, there's food and wine and the chance to make a fool of myself in front of the kids' teachers!

lol @ kdk
maybe it'll be the teachers making fools of themselves

@ asbm - didn't think of that - there's a quiz so be interesting to see how the people in charge of my kids' education fare ...

Happy birthday belle. I am shattered. That hooligan puppy has been on the go since five this morning plus I have boris here. Also took the kids to town to get me some stuff for tomorrow and then made six pizzas from scratch as well as the usual chores in between. We were going out for a drink tonight but I cant move lol. We are taking my kids to meet mechanics mum tomorrow!
