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.

cc-Glad he's rang u, he prob was genuinely tired so maybe next time arrange things for a sat when he's had time to have an early night

I've been asked on a date by 2 blokes this week, one wanted to meet tonight but I'm not 100% sure about this one cos he's a bit older than me (7 years older) and I've never dated someone older, so have said might be able to make it in week. Other one suggested meeting but not asked me when. Have decided I'm not doing any of the running with these blokes this time, cos mrjack was a bit passive and it wound me up! So will keep u posted

betty. 7 years really isn't age an age difference. still withing same decade.

cc he sounds genuine then but the tiredness might start to get on your nerves
Anyone tell me why I feel so extremely pssed off this evening? as you may know I have on/off casual thing with nm/ex never quite sure lol
tonight he is child free and his batchelor mate is visiting. Now the reason he is visiting is that he is seeing a married woman and his own home is a pigsty so he cannot take her there. N/ex does not have spare bedroom but they will sleep on floor - anyone else goign yeuch? or is it just me? of course I don't know this woman or state of her marriage, n/ex himslef is separated not divorced whihc is maybe why this is making me so unreasonably
n/ex asked me to come round and spend night (with children) I said no, and then he rings up AGAIN and suggests a carvery lunch
is it a full moon or what? am I going ott?

Your prob right Juice, I dont know what's going on at mo, have just been asked out by someone else on pof and he's given me his number lol so that's 3 this week it's a good self esteem boost if nothing else as none of them are complete mingers ha ha!

As for age, it's just a hard one. So far blokes I've dated have been 34,32 and 29, I'm 30 this bloke it 37, he looks ok from his pic, want to ask to see more pics but dont want to seem shallow!

How's things with you anyway Juice? still in touch with forces?

Ninah-dont think i'd be that impressed with that set up either!

I mean I keep thinking about the woman? would you meet a bloke you'd been 'seeing' for a couple of months in the middle of bloody nowhere to spend night on his mate's floor?
n/ex admits he feels uncomfortable but wants to see his friend, which I understand
What I don;t get is the drive to turn it all into a couply dinner party? of couse I may be wrong and she may be well out of the marriage, but I still think it's odd they would want to do this
it's none of my business thank goodness, I don't know why I feel so cross
glad it's not just me betty

If it was me, and my friend suggested this set up with someone they were seeing I think I'd say I'll see you another time! Sounds like this mate is using him as a free place to crash with this woman?

that's right
and he is letting it all happen, as ever
it's a v old friend though so I kind of understand, just don't want to be involved
mate visits 'on the way' somewhere or when he has nowhere to go eg xmas
I think it just confirms we have nothing at all in common and he would irritate the hell out of me full time
he is meant to be round here with his powertools tomorrow anyway not having lunch with the merry adulterers lol

well it wud be a bit different having lunch with a friend and his gf, rather than his friend and his married bit i wud def feel same way as u!

Ninah - yuk! You'd have to be desperate to do that. It's seedy. I'd be unimpressed too. Hope that doesn't sound judgy.

Betty - I think the crown is yours this week!

Hope everyone's having a good evening. I'm off out to see family again.

Have been cleaning all day and I am very very late. Eek!

monty-ha ha at the crown being mine this week lets see how many dates actually come about from any of these. have decided am not turning down dates this time and sticking to one bloke unless it gets past a few dates, as did that before when met mrjack and regretted it after.

Have fun with family monty, and what do u mean by v v late? or am i reading wrong into it??

thank goodness you lot are as 'judgy'as me then lol, yes I am really struck by the seediness
thanks for the confirmation
quite glad to be in with a good book

ooh, that kind of late?? really? a thread first that would be monty
i think she just means late betty
betty hope at least one of those dates turns good

ninah - nah... if it was just his gf he wouldn't be describing ad "married"

monty - yes.. me too asking... what kind of late

betty - yes. dont turn down dates till past first ones. or sleeping with one.

hows everyone else.

still in contact with forces.

I think they must be Out, juicy
yes you are right of course, the more I think about it the more it's a wake up call to make n/ex into proper ex
once he has put the shelves up of course
It really irritates me when people don't actually stand for anything but a quiet life, you know?

do you have a date to see forces yet?

yeah agree with you there ninah, I'm pretty easy going but we all have a limit dont we!

ninah - are you going for carvery today then ??

absolute latest i'll see forces is when he gets his leave on 26th of march. hopefully before then though once my passport makes its way through my letterbox.

Morning everyone.

How are we all today? will catch up properly this avo/night have managed to over sleep today until 11.30 (YAY) and need to get DS shortly.

hope everyone's well thou & had a good weekend.

Hi all. Can't believe it went to dr yesterday and I've got impetigo - no wonder spots aren't clearing - just thought it was monthly breakout - although I'm not convinced as doesn't look like impetigo to me. Anyway, got antibiotics and hope it clears up soon

Going to have to go to work tomorrow without any make up on - aargh

Well I think I have 2 dates for next week, not sure about either but worth a meet anyway. Just trying to sort a babysitter, as the one that has sat for me before doesnt seem to interested now, bloomin teenagers! Cant really ask my mum cos she's not been well, and Ive already asked her to have kids when I go speed dating.

belle-am v jealous of that lie in

juice-bet u cant wait to see him again!

singlemum-sorry to hear about the impetigo, hope it clears up soon!

Hello everyone.

Lol at you lot, no, I was very very late going to see family.

Hope you've all had a good Sunday.

Betty, the crown is deffo yours.

not long now then juicy, march tomorrow!
sorry about impetigo sm1
betty two dates, well done .. second you on teenage babysitters tho, they are great, keen and avaiable and suddenly they want to be out clubbing themselves
I did have one girl who did an evening for me and after that didn't return calls, didn't think dc were THAT terrible!
update on n/ex
phoned yest eve, sounding a bit pissed, they had been for drink ordered takeway etc - re the married woman you would really like her ninah, and it's ok cos it was a marriage of convenience to a south american
flippin heck
he's been round here today doing the diy jobs he promised, but has been quiet about the whole deal, has not even mentioned except he did say 'sorry'
so I am none the wiser really, except I obv missed a top evening ... no no carvery juicy lol, I think they left about 2 - quality huh?

monty
yes, is def Queen Betty this week

I'll happily wear the crown this week ha ha, just hoping I might actually get to go on these dates!
