mrs h, we shall see eh. It says separated on his profile, it's meetic so he has to be paying for the service, cos he uses their email facility like me. So this makes me less dubious, cos i don't think he is rolling in it. Totally hear what you are saying tho.

Will be interesting to see how it develops!!

SingleMum01 · 26/04/2010 20:13

Evening ladies,

sponge - when's the date?

Belle - what does SOH mean?

Feedmenow - I go for the opposite age range!!! Really trying to get the age down a bit! Ew that sounds wrong! The oldest I've been is 12 years older than me - so that's not too bad

MrsM - fireman

If anyone's on DD or match how do you message each other if you're not subscribed?

thesouthsbelle · 26/04/2010 20:49

sitting on hands, sm.

pirate - agree with mrsm actually re living arrangements. be cautious.

soldier has been on text again all day - i remember his red flag now is separated - they're no go's right?!

SingleMum01 · 26/04/2010 20:57

Belle - Ah, I see!

Pirate - what living arrangements?

Betty79 · 26/04/2010 21:11

belle-how was your workout oogling tonight then, any flirting??

So would you lot consider seperated a red flag then? Boilerman is seperated, has been about a year he said, i didnt see it as a red flag, obv if it's only been a few months it would be a bit different. Has took him a month to ask me out via messages on fb too, so not one for rushing dont think!

anyway goggles has been texting still, feel a bit bad cos he's a nice bloke and would like to keep him as a friend but dont think it would develop to anything else, would you ladies go on a second date even if there wasnt a 'spark' on first one?

Juicy hope the exam went well on Friday and you had a good weekend to celebrate.

I'm feeling a bit flat at the moment and at the point where I can't imagine ever being interested in men again....will it pass I wonder

piratecat · 26/04/2010 21:35

yep polish is deffo in a 'crazy place' afaik, so am leaving alone. He is a lovely guy, but he needs to sort his shit out.

next!!!

thesouthsbelle · 26/04/2010 21:41

ahem - he hit me!!! lol. only jokingly thou. tbh I give up I think am after a loosing battle but not really looking for anyone else.

ref the separation thing - I think for me it's a bit of one- the whole getting divorced and then thinking they'd want 'alone time' althou i'm not divorced et so can't talk really.

thesouthsbelle · 26/04/2010 21:42

bares n woods?

Janos · 26/04/2010 21:50

'Do bears shit in the woods' belle

Remotew · 26/04/2010 22:04

Janos, I am definitely with you on this one for the foreseeable future. Might go out with Salesman if he gets in touch but it will be for a chat and cuddle only!

Got my rescheduled op a week Wednesday so men will be the last thing on my mind for a while.

Got a heavy week at work so early night for me.

lou33 · 26/04/2010 22:08

Janos · 26/04/2010 22:12

ex dh turned up on our doorstep last night, totaly freaked her out , this is the guy who hasn't had any contact since last yr.

What a selfish git, she was crying and panicked.

kdk · 27/04/2010 13:19

hi all

place marking ... and got the stupidest message ever today - from a man with no picture and very little information ... and saying 'm'.

Yup, that's it - m. As you can imagine I was immediately overwhelmed with lust/happiness/the urge to commit violence (delete as applicable) and sent him some letters of my own - wtf; f.o; t w a t; r u stpd?

Am putting myself back on shelf I think, there's too many weirdoes and not enough serious propositions out there.

Come up here Janos there's a great view and I've got wine and pringles!

piratecat · 27/04/2010 13:58

kdk,

it really makes me want to shoot those ones!!

don't be on the shelf, be on the way to the till, you never know who might choose you!!!

oh oh.

ok, bad day yest with ex BUT, a lovely guy who has been smiling at me in local shop for 2 months, gave me his number about an hour ago. Ran out after me!!!

This has never happened to me before. PLUS I was actually looking fair-moderate as i always make more effort on dd's b day.

I feel quite

kdk · 27/04/2010 14:23

good for you pc - and happy birthday to your dd.

Everyone always says be a buyer, not a seller - only problem is there's nowt I see for sale that takes my fancy ... and a lot that makes me feel queasy!!

lou33 · 27/04/2010 14:51

woohoo pirate

why not just be browsing if you see nothing for sale?

Remotew · 27/04/2010 15:04

Great Pirate! Sounds like you are having a special day.

Think about being the buyer is that you have to pay for it. Suppose you do on the paysites, lol.

Monty100 · 27/04/2010 15:16

Kdk - O.m.g. I am at my desk in work p.m.s. and r.o.f.l. at that message . You do make me larf.

Pirate - happy birthday to dd. Glad ex didn't manage to ruin it for her.

OMG I bet you're really chuffed with phone number, how lovely.

Juice - what's he done now?? and at your exh. They make you scream laugh don't they the way they swan off. Hope you have a blast with Irish anyway .

Bf being ok, what's done is done and never forgotten.

Hi Belle, Eve, SCL, ASBM, PMG, Janos, Ninah, Sponge, SM, Lou, Betty, MrsM, Elasta and everyone else .

Am really busy at work, you wouldn't think it would you? lol
