monty - behave. you have me up that tree alot in past year. lol. i think the tree is cursed.. we're not getting back together. he still has his commitment issues. i think he's aiming for a fwb situation tbh. and i'm not opposed to it .but it could be a lot of fun making him work for it

hello all and welcome dom, knockraven
been busy doing house stuff this weekend
and seeing quite a lot of nm/x
he really is very lovely and considerate at times
will have to see
juicy have not ruled out thai farmer and I'm sure our paths will cross at some point
but I'm only mildly curious, not mad with lust for him
eve glad things are sorting themselves out. On the plus side it is good you have the ability to feel passionately for someone, I am quite envious of that

hope everyone had a good weekend!

Ex has been away all weekend which has made things more pleasant here, should be into his flat soon but not counting chickens etc just yet

All quiet on the men front, am meant to have a date with wedding man on Friday but he's gone quiet so who knows....in the meantime had some random youth trying to chat me up whilst shopping on Saturday (NB - following me round a shop saying 'hey looking good.... lovely lady come talk to me'...etc is a sure fire way of me avoiding them like the plague!) Then the train home was delayed when 2 blokes started having a fight in one of the carriages...at 6pm!

However did buy a new dress for my day out at the races - here - it looks much better in real life, and has actually given me a waist, which is miraculous

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 03/05/2010 20:13

sponge - i like the straps! nice dress, very much a races frock

kdk · 03/05/2010 20:54

thesouthsbelle · 03/05/2010 20:58

lou33 · 03/05/2010 21:24

Monty100 · 03/05/2010 22:20

Sponge - dress is lovely

Kdk - hope you're looking forward to your date.

Juice - sorry, can't resist it

lou33 · 04/05/2010 09:00

morning all how are we today?

lovely and sunny but chilly here

thesouthsbelle · 04/05/2010 09:04

yawn - when do the settle and actually get ill from the pox? the boy is up he's down he's touching he's flolopping, he's wriggling. 2 days in and i'm going mad!!!!

piratecat · 04/05/2010 09:14

hi morning.

shattered here. dd's clicky hip has clicked this mornning and she is a lotof pain, so this wil be day 4 off school.

arghhhhhhhhh, the other days were for here fanjo infection. Have a gp appt in 4 mins. dd was born with click hip and has flat feet and toes in so not a good combo.

datewise, wink man has finally emailed me thru my clues, and we were online for about 3 hrs last night. Tho i have to say i thought I was the over excitable one he is worse, which when i am feeling abit like 'nessa' from Gav and stacey, doesn't bode well.

can't belive how intolerant i have become actually, and how independant. I thinkit's cos my ex was so childlike in the end i can't bare blokes to be soft.

but, it's early days, and he is lovely, and maybe i am not used to men being nice.!!!

kdk · 04/05/2010 09:58

Hi all

Yup to looking forward to date - if only to see where we end up ... not in that way, you filthy minded lot - just we haven't even decided what to do yet.

Also been asked to go for a drink with guy who emailed me on site I don't use anymore who I added as friend on FB. He sent me a nice message saying would I like to go for a drink/meal next time he's in London - possibly next week. Was a bit about him as he came on very strong last year but seems to have calmed down in the past year so may give it a go.

Other than that, I have a lesson to plan, loads of college-reading to catch up on and an assignment to plan - and I need to lose some weight - or at least stop gaining! Roll on summer and lots of salad ...

And pc - think I'm the same now. Least little thing and I'm going 'next!' - only thing is there aren't so many lining up for the privilege these days!

kdk · 04/05/2010 09:59

@belle - don't think either of mine got particularly ill from chickenpox - just spotty, itchy and irritable!

lou33 · 04/05/2010 11:38

i think it's better to stick to your guns and date the type you prefer even if it takes longer to find someone

mrsmharket · 04/05/2010 11:41

yay! have caught up now

hi everyone and welcome to raven, silver and dom

sm - he's just someone who winked at me on zoosk! i'd sent him a message through fb (not on friends list tho so don't worry) and he replied almost straight away. no date mentioned just convo at mo. as for you being asked to send photo could be good raf - would he have said that about the other 'photos' of women to try and irk you into something you may not be quite ready for? sounds like neighbour when he said he liked my boots, i didn't realise he meant liked

pc - sorry shop guy a dh but maybe good you found out now? agree with belle - next! who is this dating site guy - we need nickname!! i'm aslo not used to guys being nice - i always wonder what their agenda is
i hope your dd feels better soon

belle - i like glee too, it's kinda like a grown-up hsm? what ass whooping though?

kdk - we haven't got filthy minds at all

silver - my dd's just gone 5 as well. as for what you were saying about the dating site(s), well, practice is always good

raven - i agree, jeans and a nice top that you feel ok in, not just comfy tho and def not mumsy

dom- i agree about keeping him at arm's length until you get to know better.

lou - definitely a keeper

elasta - is he married??

juice - do you think motorola 'knows' and that's why he's keeping things in the hope that you will go over there and he can talk you round with his dubious 'charm'? that forces guy really does want to see you doesn't he? and you have missed him haven't you

betty - i agree with juice about adopting 'stray'

sponge - could you text wedding guy? looked at dress, it was lovely and definitel;y looked like one you could wear to races

am very sorry but who was the lady talking about the guy who asked about stockings? ahd a note at the bottom of page saying 'i agree you need to meet first and then talk about sex, cheekiness is ok but there is a line in the sand so to speak' - and i haevm't a clue who i shoudl have sent it to!!!

so that's it i've caught up now

lou33 · 04/05/2010 11:54

dont worry i am definitely keeping him

changing the topic, lb has been in touch updating me about his life, mechanic knows we have remained friends (tho arent in regular contact)tho

mrsmharket · 04/05/2010 12:03
