Has no one beat me to it with a new thread yet?

OP posts:
mrsmharket · 30/04/2010 15:32

no lol
'well, have been on zoosk a while - a couple of dates though nothing special; i like 10pin bowling, cinema, walks on beach, reading, listening to music, usual suspects. i used to go to dancing classes as well though don't go so much now.i also like bikes, my favourite one purely for looks is the norton commando - all that black and chrome! ninja's are ok too. erm, what else? i used to go kickboxing quite a long time ago.

as for bank holiday weekend, i think i might either stay out of town (the beauty of living in a seaside town!) or do some gardening. my daughter supposed to be staying at her dad's so not entirely sure what will happen.

i woudl say i'm quite shy but idon't seem to have done too badly!'

was that ok? bit late now tho

piratecat · 30/04/2010 15:35

mrsmharket, you need to say

'oops, I also do ....... and like .....'

hope to hear form you, or give us a msage ...

thesouthsbelle · 30/04/2010 15:47

ooh you can tweet & FB threads now - not sure on that addition!

anyhow ho hum. lets catch up.

Monty100 · 30/04/2010 15:53

I'm not too happy about the tweeting and facebooking threads thingy.

mrsmharket · 30/04/2010 15:55

nor me. i prefer the annony annonoht anonymity of things

Monty100 · 30/04/2010 16:03

MrsM - too right! I feel like de-registering from everything!

thesouthsbelle · 30/04/2010 16:06

that's what i'm thinking makes it esaier to start the whole bitching thing off again what was it moldies or summat?!? anyhow....

soldier's been on again today been laughing at him and his 'boat' i'm sure he's not a soldier really. he is but like teasing him about it lol.

sounded ok mrs m yeah, I like to add how about you or something to the end, or I see you like XYZ to have you tried ABC as it's really fun.

I think i'm with juicy on the casual thing- I can't do straight FB's, but then again casual for me usually or eventually means emotions getting involved so it's safer not to - nout wrong with a bit of DIY I guess.

ref imagining see - I could imagine it with farmer - was basically undressing him with my eyes in my head (good view as well! lol) but last night nada, not sure he moved in for a peck on the lips n I froze so he went cheek just to the side. can deffo imagine marine thou

pirate - how have you managed to go so long!?!? lol. last time I did was b4 gymboy went away mid feb and OMG! climbing the walls isn't the phrase for it.

eve hope you feel better soon. and how was our jezzer today - car crash telly at it's best. ref your question, I think as well it's cool to have a mr rigght now but not forever type of a thing if you don't get too involved from the off.

mrsmharket · 30/04/2010 16:07

lol

omg got reply/ies
oops gotta go, out of time again, haev good weekend see you in part 21 if i don't catch up before then hahaha byeeeeee

Monty100 · 30/04/2010 16:12

Ooooooo - where's Kdk? Were'nt you seeing the porky poker player today????

kdk · 30/04/2010 16:37

not till next week - give him another week to hit the gym!

ninah · 30/04/2010 16:39

i certainly hope they have not been playing porky poker yet monty
i am on the serious sex only side of the fence here. Nothing wrong with casual relationships and I did that years ago but nowadays i'd rather be pruning the roses -
simply too lazy nowadays for all the drama and acrobatics of one off sex
child free tomorrow belle
house stuff
nm/ex knows he is welcome if he brings his toolbox fnaar fnaar

kdk · 30/04/2010 16:57

Have to say it's been years for me as well - but bits don't fall off/dry up/close up - think I've just veered from indiscriminate to incredibly hard to please - and just not prepared to give it up unless someone ticks most, if not all, of my boxes. Have to say I can more envisage myself staying single than settling for second best.

Mind you, a very old bf (from when I was in my 20s ....) told me yesterday that he was still in love with me - wish I felt the same but 20-odd years and two kids each ...

We had an affair years ago which ended up with him leaving the woman who he left me for, with whom I am now quite friendly ... they're now separated - all very complicated! Told him I was going on a date next week and that I only like him as a friend now!

ninah · 30/04/2010 17:07

'veered from indiscriminate to incredibly hard to please'
yes, that sums me up too kdk
and I know which I prefer

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 30/04/2010 17:11

ninah - ... your thing with exbf is same to my casuals however... not a fuck buddy. more some itch scratching with someone you trust iykwim. so you are really doing casual i would say???.. no?/ maybe not?? class it as something else?

kdk - wow that does sound complicated!!

whats this tweet/fb thingy your on about?

lou33 · 30/04/2010 17:44

thats the kind of casual thing i had juice, people i knew rather than random pick ups

kdk · 30/04/2010 18:05

was what I used to do in the days before everyone got coupled up - though will admit to the odd night of passion with the odd random pick up (some of whom were very odd indeed looking back)! Suppose I just have to wait until they all get uncoupled ...

Funnily enough, when I lived in France, I had a very good friend who was a fb of sorts but we were both very fond of each other - and had he not died in a car accident, I would probably have still been living out there and possibly still been with him in a sort of no-strings way!

Remotew · 30/04/2010 19:09

Been sleeping most of the day so feeling loads better. Didn't manage to get to the shops so once I get dressed it's time to seek out a takeaway.

Not sure about this facebook/twitter addition, how does it work in practise. I don't want anything I say on here on either site.

I'm OK with friends with benefits atm. Couldn't just do it with someone I'd just met either although I have slipped up in the past. Been a while since. I also like to have a drink/meal and chat first .

ninah · 30/04/2010 19:37

my main itch atm juicy is to get the decorating finished and that seems to be getting scratched atm
see your point though
sex is only a priority for me if I am pretty much into someone iyswim and is def on back burner for now
I did get another text from thai farmer tonight with his picture (again) and the message Let me take you out?!
I never replied to the last one btw

SingleMum01 · 30/04/2010 19:47

Crikey, don't come on for a day and I miss loads!

Hello everyone

Eve - hope you feel better soon

PC - have you seen shop yet?

MrsM - you can't say that and then disappear!

I've been updating my dbase! And may have a date Sun afternoon with RAF man

lou33 · 30/04/2010 19:49

hope it goes well

sex is important to me, am out and proud about it

my bf seems to have got lost tonight though

he better find his way here pdq or i will be eating the lovely rump steak all to myself

already fed the kids because they were chewing my ankles in hunger so there isnt much left!

SingleMum01 · 30/04/2010 20:45

Lou - has he turned up yet or have you eaten the steak!

Where is everyone tonight?

My possible date has sent me a photo and asked for one in return. I'm a bit at that one!

Monty100 · 30/04/2010 20:48

Juice - there is now a facility to link threads to Twitter and Facebook. Look to your right on the blue bar.........

lou33 · 30/04/2010 21:23

yes he is here and we have full bellies now

was bloody lovely too

Remotew · 30/04/2010 22:07

Lou, steak is my fav especially with lots of garlic butter. DD won't eat red meat so I have it as a treat on my own.

My dilemma isn't over sadly. You know who turned up tonight. He's sorted out for next week!! Supposed to be going to a friends tonight but not gone yet. Could anyone here be so heartless to leave someone on the street. I know DD could be not sure I can.

kdk · 30/04/2010 22:09

and again I (don't) say
