... to someone you really shouldn't text, it would elicit a reply?

hmm, sounds interesting. What are you up to then? !

acnebride · 06/09/2005 10:59

i think if i got one i would assume it was a telemarketing text... but might answer, certainly...

The postie that left at the start of the summer hols. Kissed my hand, gave me his number, said "You're married, aren't you?" "You're going to get me into trouble". I phoned him, he declined. The day after that he changed his round.

I thought it would be the postie

brightstar1 · 06/09/2005 11:04

watch out! as there are some dodgy txts going on,and if you reply it ends up costing you a fortune.

Carla · 06/09/2005 11:16

sw!!!!!

What could go horribly wrong? Could he 'phone and find out it was me? Could I say I'd got a new 'phone and was deleting all the old numbers? Does that sound plausible?

Don't know anything about your postie story carla but agree with beety. Please don't. This is how obsessions start.

SleepySuzy · 06/09/2005 11:26

Don't do it.

Nevada · 06/09/2005 11:26

As he's already changed his round, that'd be heard as a big NO by me.

Sorry.

Mum2girls · 06/09/2005 11:27

and should you need another vote - pls don't, it would look desperate.

Carla · 06/09/2005 11:27

I know, I know, beety, but there's nowhere else to look!

I just can't work out in my head why he had his number already written out to give to me, said 'I only live down there', changed his mind when I 'phoned him the very same day and then changed his shift the day after that (which couldn't have been easy after all those years).

Bring me to my senses or tell me to do it.

Take the hint Carla, he was just being a flirt. Git.

Tinker · 06/09/2005 11:30

Maybe he's married? He just changed his mind? He's bothered about you being married? See, you're obsessing already. In 3 months time, you'll be so glad you didn't text him.

Mud · 06/09/2005 11:33

he deosnt fancy you he jsut enjoyed flirtng if you phone him you are making yousrelf a huger fool. if u are married why would oyu phone jim anyway

Mud · 06/09/2005 11:33

Carla · 06/09/2005 11:38

good

dontwanttoupsetyou · 06/09/2005 11:40

Sorry Carla, I don't want to upset you (hence the namechange) but haven't you got enough grief in your life at the moment?

Things may be bad with your dh, but chasing after someone else, really isn't going to help. I thought your dh looked at your threads on here as well, what will happen if he sees this?

Also I know your drink problems are well documented on here and I just wondered if you are feeling fired up and ready for some flirting, because you've had a drink this morning.

Carla · 06/09/2005 11:44

Thanks dwtuy. I am fired up and ready for some flirting, but for the moment that problem at least is under control. .

And yes, you're right, I'll just take on MNers words of wisdom and hope this sinks down to the bottom of the page ....

'Dontwanttoupsetyou'?????

A misnomer if ever there was one.

dontwanttoupsetyou · 06/09/2005 11:47

I don't think I said anything nasty Mum2girls and certainly nothing that Carla hasn't said before.

I just happen to think that there is more to this than some innocent flirting with the Postman. I like Carla, and don't want to upset her, regardless of what you think.

Flossam · 06/09/2005 11:49

Carla, sorry I'm going to say what I think again!

If you are really so unhappy with DH that you are looking for another relationship then you need to leave. It's not fair on your husband. I remember your lovely taxi driver, and now you are basically trying to set about having an affair. Things obviously aren't right. I'm not always the happiest with my DP, but not to the extent that I am looking elsewhere. Why are you so unhappy?

Hope this dosen't sound harsh. I don't mean it to be.

Flossam · 06/09/2005 11:51

Last post I saw was Mud's, sorry for x posting.
