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

one what you should NOT do is dither
you blocked him 8 months ago
leave him blocked this time, and don't feel obliged to spend time on anyone you don't actually like again
fwiw I had a really polite refusal when I started dating again, along the lines of thanks very much but you are not really what I'm looking for. Great, I knew where I was -a lot better than being messed around by someone half hearted
think most of the advice you got v sensible
monty I definitely will it's just when (terror emoticon) but I will do it

ninah - a pgce is hard work - you can do the course (well, mine anyway) either as two-year pre-service or one-year in-service. I'm now in second year having done it pre-service but teach three hours a week.

Trying to study, work and cope as a single parent with young kids, is, not to sugar coat it, bloody difficult, especially if, like me, you've not studied/written essays for several million years BUT I have enjoyed most of it/met some great people and really enjoy the teaching.

My PGCE is to teach in the post-compulsory sector and I'm specialising as an adult literacy tutor - sadly there are very few jobs around at the moment so I'm hoping I haven't wasted my time - and money as I'm self-funded. If you want any more information/advice etc, just ask and I'll try to help if I can. What type of teaching are you hoping/interested in doing?

Oh Christ, am I going to regret this? I am on Match/DD as markw_68

Be gentle with me. Actually, on second thoughts....

hi all,

what's been going on here then?!?

I am SOH (unsuccessfully at the mo - well mob is at mums thou haven't looked today as of y'day about 3pm nada from farmer - so that's great!) not been in touch thou. have 2 others who want a date, but am reverting back to plan A - ie no dating/men/anything until after the summer - ooh apart form marine who I am trying to warm up - v v slowly tortoise slowly but ho hum - hate to see him leave the gym - but LOVE to see him walk away! hahaha.

so come on then fill me in what's been happening here then - before I go n have a look see.

Think its definitely wine o'clock! OMG think I may have sent a few too many messages! I don't know if I can start all over again

ahem dad2ch

your match is looking good. not sure if it's needed to put solvent ont here thou - (I guess some women are bothered by that thou?!? hmm) is good thou. shame i'm not closer!

well thank you for that, seriously. Although obviously I am now going to demand to see yours.....

Belle - you've got to look at Dad2's profile on here. (And then go to the back of the queue) .

thanks for that kdk
confirmed my thoughts really. My main fear is to give up my job go through all that college stuff - if I get in! - and then struggle to find a permanent post
we had a trainee who took at least a year to find a job and was doing supply (mind you she was fussy about where etc whereas I'd be up for most things)
At the moment I'm in preschool, my goal is to work with KS2, and I want to get it done in a year
but my job atm is at dc's school. Which is SOOO perfect. We can walk there. Etc etc. The course is def a long term rather than short term goal
dad2c you will get honest opinions, which is the great thing about mn

Lol x post Belle. (I said back of queue).

dad2 - think your profile is fine - only thing I might add is to say you're not after one-night stands/being a fb (that is, if that's what you don't want ...), think, juicy's right in some ways, it's better to be upfront about what you want/don't want. Only danger is it can start to be a very LONG list ... or maybe that's just me!

Also maybe describing yourself as "adventurous" might be giving the wrong impression?

Or I could be completely wrong (has been known on very rare occasion ...)

how do you add a picture to your profile??

kdk did you just wink at me on DD??? Wahey first one this week! Get your coat etc.....

god damn it you're moving too quickly here lol.

i'm munnzieb on there but the pics are soo soo old- infact i'll upload one in a bit (possibly of the wedding) ina frock.

so what's happening anyhow?

and yes dad - you are asking too much! it's what us women want but we're allowed to ask so much cos we is women.

well I havent posted for a few days and I'm already lost lol!

dad2-seems like you have caused a stir on here, the ladies queing already lol maybe I shud pass you my crown!

sm01-sorry to hear about things with older bloke good for you for getting your dating shoes straight back on tho!

lou-glad your feeling ok after your op!

Hi to everyone else, cant really catch up with all of the posts am very tired and need to get an early night I think!

As for me I've still got a date with big goggles on friday night, looking foward to it, have been chatting all week and he's made me laugh so much this week so I'm sure it will be fun if nothing else!

Not arranged a date with boilerman, partly cos he's got his daughter at weekend, and is working away next week. and partly because I'm tired this week and feel a bit too tired to bother with dates with 2 men lol! Gonna see how it goes with goggles and go from there as to wether i do meet him.

Well you've seen mine now dad2! Sadly, think you're a bit too far away but if you're ever down London way, I'm sure me and the rest of the London gang could show you a good time!

Belle -

Doh, its so long since I've been on there can't remember login etc so they'll be emailing it back to me.

Hey! Kdk email that profile to me

And I have just been winked at by a 23-year-old - I despair. Ok dad2, I'm moving up to wherever, anything to avoid little boys who've been watching Cougar City or whatever it's called!

betty you get and keep that crown mrs! lots of dates hotting up for you.

lou - glad you're feeling well. & well done BF as well. i'm glad he's settled in well.

juicy - walk away from forces lol. you'll be fine on fri as well chick don't worry.

< waves KDK betty single mum >

off to look some more.

Why do I feel a bit like I'm in a freak show!?! And why do I like it so much!?!

dad2C I would assume from the profile that you were interested in casual flings tbh
firstly there is the jokey bit about getting married next week but lower down you say when asked your views on 'marriage' not necessary
so the joke makes you seem a bit insincere
and looking for someone 'open-minded' this always has a murky tinge to me lol
I also think the photo that comes up on your main profile is not the best, you are v good looking and have better shots, you need the face to be central
I hate the way the first thing you say about yourself is 'solvent' screams dinner and a shag
Since you are looking for a friendship (as well as a shag) I hope these comments help
As i said before i very much doubt you'll be single long

oh god, they're off ...

Oh great Ninah, so I sound like someone willing to pay for a quick (but amazingly satisfying) shag? Thanks for being so up front!

hahaha cos you're the only bloke on a thread with a bunch of single mums! personally i'd say nutter but hey ho. and I agree with ninah tbh esp re the solvent thing - tbh that always puts me off with a bloke who writes that - mostly as I get the feeling that I then have something to prove.

planner is still trying... hmm... do I bother?
soldier is after a coffee when he comes home from an ex but well do I bother!?!?

hmm.... off to read some more.
