Where have all the fit, interesting and available men gone? Part 23

[Monty100]

These threads are finishing faster and faster!

As you were.

Its just grey and colder and i dont like

@ Lou - certainly wasn't my idea - unless someone thought I'd like a crap grey day for my birthday ...

@ monty - they don't really ask that much fortunately ... my daughter talks about 'her daddy' but it's like a fantasy daddy - certainly not based on reality. Luckily they were only 6 months when we split up and only three and a half when he was deported so have pretty vague memories. It's hard because in many ways I think it is good for kids to know both parents but he doesn't seem prepared to make the effort ... and I don't see why I should make the running on his behalf ie phone him/take the kids to Turkey (which I have reservations about anyway ...)

And hi to everyone else, hope we're all having a good day!

morning!
was trying to catch up and about to post when realised i couldn't!! monty's first again

elasta - was going to say go for the weekend and see where you end up i hope he can get out of going to jordan. do you have a party dress sorted out just in case (for either occasion )

eve - i agree about zoosk being useless. the pudding your dd made sounds very yummy! have you heard from stallion yet?

janos - sorry there was no spark on your date. pmsl at asbm and comment about there sometimes being combustion!!

scl - ouch at sunburn, how you feeling today?

monty - hope dd had good day on her birthday? yay for ebay dress agree it shoudlbe worn with a huge grin and champagne flute

kdk - intriguing at turkish comment
he never phoned them?

no news on date front here but am now having to take him to court for not keeping to order and for (my solicitor's suggestion) to shorten it - he's kept to less than 40% of the order he asked for i'm thinking of dragging his butt back to contact centre, at least dd saw him regularly ther

kdk - ahh, sorry i seem to have put my foot in a bit

Happy birthday kdk :

oops io missed that one happy birthday kdk

dear god we have a 23!!!!

morning everyone!

what's happening then here at the minute. can I have a cliff notes of what's going on.

things are v good here - all loved up, been talking with BF about going on holiday next easter with both the kids, just got back from a girlie weekend away - copious amounts of drinking and 5am coming homes.

anyhow gotta run boss is back, will try to update more later. xx

Kdk - HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Are you doing anything special?

ex doesn't contact his dt's. I would be very wary of taking them to see him too.

Hi All!!!

Aurora, Interesting ppoit you make about getting out the pretty dress. I dont really do party dresses much and wouldnt wear one for a date, especially if he was coming to mine. I would feel a bit strange dressing up in my own house, so not sure on that one. Am I doing something wrong?? I have a pretty reasonable figure for a 40 something

TBH have never seen him wearing anything but jeans and trainers. Expect it will be a bit academic as he wont show up anyway - still it is his loss as I will be going OUT friday and saturday anyway I will make sure to tell him what he is missing!!

It would probably be crops, sparkly flipflops and a little top for me. But maybe Im just not trying hard enough as I am great at chatting to people etc, but clueless and rubbish at flirting as I have been out of the dating scene for 10 years.

So help needed everyone, advice for the clueless please, what would you wear for a date that started at home and also top tips on flirting without making a complete fool of yourself!!!

kdk happy birthday
hope you have a lovely day
what have your lovely dt's given you?
elasta wear what you feel good in
what are you cooking for him?

I've only just found this new thread, thought you'd all stopped chatting.

Monty hope the dress is right when do you get it?

Happy Birthday KDK.

Waves to everyone else.

Stallion has gone silent, we left it that I would get in touch with him if I needed him. Chances are a million to one. He was ok,just nothing in it for me.

I have started deleting without reading messages on POF just on the strength of looking at the photos. Is that really rude?

Hi ASBM Not planning on cooking anything!! There is a really good pub in the village with a resturant so thought we'd go there. The food is much better than I could do and it means I just get to chat, only thing is ours is a small village so my neighbours may well be in there

elastamum, What you are planning on wearing is fine. I live in a small place and have met more that one date at the same cafe/bar, I know the owners and go there a lot anyway. I often wonder if they notice.

Thanks eve, not getting too excited as am expecting a call later to say hes not coming anyway, as he will be off working again. At least I have a plan b with a girlfriend who has made it her lifes mission to find me a nice man, so I wont be in alone this weekend

Ninah - accessorised with a magnum flute of champagne sounds good to me. here it is again

Elasta - casual is fine for starting at yours and going down the pub. Sounds good to me.

i like that dress

cor i do like this

Lou that is similar to one I have in black. It's a galaxy dress and cost £100 about 5 year ago. I would still wear it now for a special dinner.

Still loving the FC one. Tell us how long it is when it arrives Monty. Would need to nearly meet my knee, a woman of my age etc.

happy birthday kdk!
oh yes Monty i remember it now, lovely lovely
i think I ribbed you about the length would be interested to hear about that too when it arrives
what a fab deal
can't do karen millen, too busty, and if they fit up top they bag down below (not something i enjoy, would love to be a bit more lithe and clotheshorse) tried on the most beautiful vintage dress last weekend, deep crimson with embroidered and beaded sleeve only 25 fgs but I looked like a pregnant transvesite which was a shame

Ta all for b'day wishes - went out for lunch with my mum and feel stuffed!

@ ninah - know what you mean re Karen Millen - I'm just too well-endowed for her clobber much as I like it - same with LK Bennett (though that's far too pricey for me). Am wearing this which I love - and is great for those of us with big norks!

I love that kdk in fact I may even have to buy it

Lou - that dress is gorgeous! Love Karen Millen too.

Kdk - Loving that dress! I'll bet it looks great on you. Glad you had a good day.

Ninah - lol at pregnant transvestite.

Eve - I tried one on at the weekend, its just above the knee. I would wear wide linen or silky trousers or something under it if needs be, but I think I'm ok for now (just).

@ ninah - go on - it's fab - and as it's so long you don't even have to defuzz your legs!

I keep mine epilated, it's the best thing. I'm only 5ft 2 so it would be a respectable length on me. I wore a tee-shirt material dress recently and wore fishnets tights with it. It looked OK.

That flipping POF website is getting me down. Got messages for guys in their 60's and the ones near my age are munters. I joined because I was fed up not hard up.
