Betty79 · 16/05/2010 19:11

sm-It's tough one re the still being on the site....I have been there I'd just see how it goes, as you say its only date 3. If you can, stop checking cos It'll only drive you mad wondering lol

ninah

just waiting for my babysitter here, then being picked up by boilerman

piratecat · 16/05/2010 19:11

hi all, dd is ok, just waiting on the mri results before i even contemplate sending her back to school. She is tons better but untill i know it's safe to have her walking around on that hip, i am not sending her.it was very stressful all of it. thanks for asking.

oh kdk, Ken got in touch with me once too, sorry to say, it was the exact same email!!

as soon as i read 'hello dearie' I knew it was him!!

crazy lol

kdk · 16/05/2010 19:28

@ ninah - glad to know you're having a good time!

Hi Belle, how's it all going?

ninah · 16/05/2010 19:31

ok sensible head on
juicy I just read your post
wtf ...has what about his dc here? you and he need a serious conversation
he is not thinking atm
betty I am glad about your nan, hope drugs work out, sounds sensible approach
have a lovely time w bm
kdk I just ebayed a too small for me dress and got all of 99p - it cost me a fortune
charity I'm thinking
if perchance we do shrink again we can buy more but they say post 40 choose face or figure
I know when I haven't bothered to eat I get a haggard look nowadays
whereas at 20 i used to survive on muesli black coffee and speed and look fresh as a daisy

ninah · 16/05/2010 19:33

lol at Ken
not good time as such i think it's a pmt thing actually (pushes empties under table)

Remotew · 16/05/2010 20:38

Just lost a post before.

Saying hi to everyone.

SM01/Betty/Belle things looking good. Always a problem as everyone has found out in the beginning when they are still fishing after a great date or two.

Ninah put the booze down or pass one over here! Been for a meal tonight with family only got a little wine left.

Went to see Salesman last night, last minute thing. I stayed over in the spare room. He's bought a new toy. Always knew I'd get a boyfriend with a porche one day .

kdk · 16/05/2010 21:25

@ piratecat - don't worry - had him down as a weirdo like I said. Still, at least he's obviously a weirdo with impeccably good taste!

@ sm - is dating direct the same as match/meetic? If so, the guy is called glinteastwood (yes, I know, bloody awful nickname). If he is, tell him you're contacting him on behalf of quoideneuf from match and he can contact me on OK Cupid or Plenty of Fish using name mzdemeanour ...

@ ninah, know what you mean - when I was at my thinnest a couple of years ago, quite a few people told me I looked too haggard/older than I look with a bit more weight. Still, would be happy if I lost 10lb!

Remotew · 16/05/2010 21:36

Something is going wrong with my mumsnet. I've tried to post and it directs me away!

Meant to say looking good for Juice too.

KDK, Salesman commented last night that I had lost weight since he last saw me in Feb. Not intentionally but must be due to recent stresses. Food tastes like sawdust to me when I'm stressed. There is a saying 'you can never be too thin or too rich'. Not sure I should lose anymore though.

kdk · 16/05/2010 21:57

don't worry eve, not just you - must be problems with the site

just had a message on okc from a guy in ghana who 'like to get know me please'. Mmm, let me see, I think I'm washing my hair for the next year ...

Remotew · 16/05/2010 22:02

KDK, what site are you on to get all these weirods and chancers? Think I would get off that one.

kdk · 16/05/2010 22:03

eve, sadly think it's me rather than the sites as I get them on all of them!

thesouthsbelle · 16/05/2010 23:03

sm - agree with betty/eve, on one hand don't look (althou it used to with gymboy & in the end it drove me mad, also didn't help my feeling secure - so from that POV i'd say don't look)

lol@ ken - he is a trier!

kdk - not bad ta you?

ninah - i'm sure you look lovely.

just spoken to soldier, he's asked to leave his car outside mine while he's in the USA - is that a bit odd?

lou33 · 16/05/2010 23:24

Evening all. Thought I would post to let you all know we are definitely a proper couple now as we just had our first row!

And it is five months today that we met.

All blown over and sorted now tho lol

Betty79 · 17/05/2010 00:30

Just a quick post ladies to say the long awaited pressie was a dvd of 'UP' which is quite sweet as I'd told him I nearly cried at it at the cinema during one of our earlier dates, he said it reminded him of me when he saw it which is why he bought it Had a lovely evening too, think I might be going to his fri night when my 2 are with their dad.

Am off to bed now, will be back tommorow no doubt!

thesouthsbelle · 17/05/2010 08:11

woo betty & lou.

(well not the fight Lou but the proper couple bit)

Remotew · 17/05/2010 10:02

Belle, not odd really. Depends if you want the responsibility of looking after his car. Where would he normally keep it?

Lou, 5 months is a long time to not have a row, don't know how you have managed that.

Betty, sweet! like it. Have a great day.

mrsmharket · 17/05/2010 10:27

good morning all

belle - will jsut wait and see on that one. he went past me on the way, beeped his horn but didn't offer a lift. then when i finally got up to where dd's school was (in the area, didn't have to go to front gate), he stopped so i could talk to her. i'm sure it will get thrown back at some stage why all the fighting? am not gonna say anythign about your date weekend with soldier

elasta - sorry about lack of spark in your date

juice - oh no, hope you ok?

lou - whichever you think tho he's a bit am sorry about your first row but happy 5mth anniversary

monty - (((()))) hope you feeling better today

rubber - hi 3 dates wow! hope it goes well and they decent

sm- yay i agree with kdk tho, is he wanting casual? or has he just not thought about deleting?

pc - hope your daughter better now, when do you get mri results?

pmg - what happened with the bike?

ninah -

betty - aww

eve - hows you?

hope everyone else ok?
ho hum, not much happening here at mo, get my blood test results in about half hour or so, hopefully they'll be ok.

elastamum · 17/05/2010 10:46

Morning all,

New dating pic seems to hav done the trick. Was chatting to nice man on GSM last night as it loaded and he said it was great and promptly sent me his phone number as he wants to meet up .

At least this one is local too, most of my dates have been at least an hour away - there dont seem to be a lot of single blokes out there up my way - mind you we are surrounded by mostly sheep

Good luck with the tests Mrs M

lou33 · 17/05/2010 10:49

it felt like rite of passage

the god thing is, that whereas my exh would bring in everything under the sun when we argued, dp is like me and just sticks to the problem in question, so it was all actually rather civilised for a falling out

it consisted of him telling me some stuff about his exw and her behaviour recently, which started giving me the hump, then she sent him a text which really sent me into a red mist, as normally i dont say anything but this time it is affecting me and the kids

then i finally lost my cool when i mentioned it to him and he told me to not get involved

so after raging about the kitchen for a bit i went and told him i was really really pissed off (they had all noticed), and he needed to ask for his balls back from her freezer

then we made up

mrsmharket · 17/05/2010 10:54

elasta - yay!! maybe i need a new pic on zoosk too?
thanks elasta, docs is only over roadfrom library so shall be of fmn in another ten mins or so

mrsmharket · 17/05/2010 10:56

ooh hello lou, that one sneaked past me!
good on you for the balls comment tho

mrsmharket · 17/05/2010 11:01

have to go ladies x

piratecat · 17/05/2010 11:11

lou i love your style.!

dd had a rough night again, we might have to go back into hosp. mri results not back yet. don't kow what to do. they said well the head nurse said, it's up to me . hahahahaha.

i am losing it!!

mrsmharket · 17/05/2010 11:58

pc - forgive me i i say this the wrong way - how are you supposed to know what to do medically for your daughter? isn't that the hospital's job?

as for me, well the blood tests all came back normal (well, normal for me anyway ) doc said it was probably because of all the stress i been under the past few weeks. i happened to tell the doc that i had had a bad back for a few days and that my heels were wearing unevenly. he looked at my back said my spine wasn't straight (which i knew anyway) but that one of my legs (left, it think) is shorter than the other wtf? and how the hell do i deal with that now? i could either be on medication for bad back adn see how it goes or go see physio. i opted for physio, get it sorted out sooner.
ho hum. sort one thing out another pops up to take its place.
