v quick one from me as am at work

kdk - am still on match so will gladly send a msg for you(and of course have a look at the man in question and report back!!) however cant do it til after 7 as I cant access match at work...most inconsiderate of our IT department I feel!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 25/05/2010 13:58

hi sponge hope you're good
am sure that kdk will buy you a large one be indebted to you!

kdk · 25/05/2010 14:24

ta sponge - already promised you a bucket of something in return for putting up with your ex, so make that two buckets!

sculptor is tall, dark (well, whatever's left of his hair and he doesn't seem to have much), brown eyes, 40 - obviously fancies himself a bit but hey ho. Describes himself as "easy going, refined and articulate,
Also tactile, sensitive and thoughtful". Greek/English - works as a stonemason - only drawback (well there had to be one at least didn't there?) is he smokes. Also never married/no kids which always rings a few alarm bells for me but no one (not even me!) is perfect.

kdk · 25/05/2010 14:37

and just realised I now have two messages from him ... he must really want to tell me to f* off and stop looking at his profile!

kdk · 25/05/2010 14:47

Aha, result, the man is obviously not stupid and has sent me a third email with an email addy in the subject line ...

but what the heck do I write to him! Help! My mind has gone blank (told you I wasn't a minx) ... and I still haven't planned tomorrow's lesson ...

kdk · 25/05/2010 14:54

And for those who are interested - have put up a picture on my profile which will be there for about half an hour max!

lou33 · 25/05/2010 17:56

he isnt bad kdk

passmyglassplease · 25/05/2010 17:56

ohhhhh like the picture, looks sort of smouldering if you know what I mean.

(pmg will stop letching now)

sincitylover · 25/05/2010 18:30

agree v nice

Just off to my dinner - feeling very dressed up (not normal for me) - will update when I get home.

kdk · 25/05/2010 18:31

yes but what do I say to him - can we meet somewhere for a spot of smouldering?

He's bound to hate me anyway as he's half Greek and my ex is Turkish (and therefore my kids are half turkish ...) usually not too much love lost between the two ...

kdk · 25/05/2010 18:39

@ scl - have a great time - knock 'em dead!

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 25/05/2010 19:03

ooooh pic looks good.

did you reply.. come on... i'm nosey!!!

monty - i will find out tonight if off the hook. he's coming round for dinner i am shitting myself nervous as his kitchen skills are far superior to mine!!

i'm off to persuade kids to sleep so i can tell him its safe to head over and test my delights on offer

kdk · 25/05/2010 19:24

Well, give me some suggestions then - do I just say "Hi mr mystery man - firstly I'm well impressed by your initiative in realising I couldn't respond on match - unfortunately not a full member so can get a bit frustrating at times when you'd like to respond but can't."

And then ask him to tell me a bit about himself or forward his previous message?

I don't usually approach guys so could do with a bit of help! Sad git, I know ...

SingleMum01 · 25/05/2010 19:33

Evening everyone

Kdk - go for it!!!

Don't know what's going on with Mr Blue, I have a feeling things are going downhill, unless I'm just being really insecure Last 2 days less texts than normal - although he's on a course and says he's very busy. He's still sent his usual morning text and text me at lunchtime, but nothing since I replied then. Could be that he's busy doing his homework or could be that he's testing me to see if I text him or he could've just lost interest. What should I do ladies sit on those hands or text?? By the way I never text first.

ninah · 25/05/2010 19:44

two texts a day is plenty sm1 relax! if I was on a course i wouldn't be texting, sure it doesn't mean anything
kdk loved your speed dating resume, is kind of reassuring to know i'm not missing much ...
asbm don't worry, maudlin or merry is fine by me ...
what recipe forum? you mean there is an actual thread on onion gravy wtf, I would much rather it were sexual shorthand tbh
scl meeting new people is great, one or two might be fi&a - even one out of three would be a start, granted lol at talk to the face
i think I came off match altogether when it updated and kept getting random messages, not paid for it for ages (or the subs lol)
going to party this weekend where there will be one or two singletons but tory heartland so dubious ... hope weather lasts, as it involves a tent
and lol at juicy - whoops!

ninah · 25/05/2010 19:49

kdk ask him for a picture which shows his teeth, he is doing that lip smile thing which pple do when their teeth are rotten
and he has also cut off top of his head
to me he looks a bit sinister, but could just be the pic ...

SingleMum01 · 25/05/2010 19:51

Ninah - thanks x

He's text me now too! I don't know if I can be doing with the roller coaster, I'm just sooooo insecure.

Just logged onto fb and one of my fb male friends has asked me out, bless

Betty79 · 25/05/2010 19:53

kdk-so have you sent him an email yet??

sm-I agree with ninah a few texts per day is fine, try to relax an enjoy (easier said than done I know!)

Juice-have fun with rochester tonight, Im he will be happy with whats on offer

Eve-Glad to hear you ha a good time

Ninah-Yay to the party have fun!

scl-hope you have fun at the dinner an meet some nice eligable batchlors lol

I've finished work now till next tues yay, looking foward to some time off with dc's!

ninah · 25/05/2010 19:57

don't worry sm1 I am like that if I am keen on someone, I try to keep it in perspective but it's easy to be aaaargh
the rollercoaster's quite fun you know
checked out recipes. Nothing on gravy. Someone 'panicking about my ganache'.

ninah · 25/05/2010 19:58

yes just HOW sorry are you juicy?

Betty79 · 25/05/2010 19:58

ninah-it was in the 'food' section not in recepies

kdk · 25/05/2010 20:08

@ ninah, rofl at ganache - luckily only a vague idea what the heck that is - else would be just another thing to worry about! 'Does my gananche look big in this???'

Okay, am going to email the man and see what happens ... wish me luck!

Monty100 · 25/05/2010 20:30

I have no ganache whatsoever .

Hi everybody

Kdk - he didn't he rock my boat but each to their own... Have you mailed him yet?

SM - you panic too much. Calm down calm down.

Ninah - the gravy might just be in chat. Rofl at your speed dating questions. How're you doing? Have you decided on doing a course?

Juice - you might get a spanking tonight lol.

Betty - . I've got all of next week off though .

SCL - hoping you're having a good time.

Lou, ASBM, Sponge, PMG, Pirate, MrsH and everybody

Where's Elastamum working somewhere lovely again??

SingleMum01 · 25/05/2010 20:52

Betty - thanks.

Monty - I do, I do, that's why I have to come here for you all to tell me that!

How come I went from chilled to aargghh!!!! I want to be chilled

Monty100 · 25/05/2010 21:03

SM - distract/busy yourself and try and stop waiting for texts. You're winding yourself up. Just chill, put your phone away sometimes to stop you waiting for it to 'go'.
