Have got myself into something (good) but not sure what to do now

Am slightly lurky, well not much of a poster, but anyway have name changed for this.

I've been bursting to tell someone but have sat on it all week and don't know quite what to do now. Last weekend I stayed with some friends of friends, and there was someone there who I'd had a crush on when I was really quite young. We got talking and I found I really, really liked him, and one thing led to another and we spent the night together. Well he went back to his room in the early morning so people wouldn't know.

He is 53 and as far as I could tell, not attached (I did check before doing anything) though he has been married in the past. I thought, well for one night, it won't matter, but he texted me today to say that he is keen to fly up from London tomorrow to see me and wants to leave on Monday morning. He doesn't actually live in Britain so I'm not under any illusions about this but I don't know what to do.

I don't think he can be much of a catch (53 and not ever really settled) for various reasons and I know it's just because I quite liked shagging him Blush and it would be quite convenient as mum has dd for the weekend.

I just feel like a bit of a sad slapper because he was on tv when I was a student and I can't quite believe it and actually am cringing and can't tell anyone I know. I do like him and if it weren't for that then I wouldn't hesitate.

is he with you? ( not in loo...)
is it good?

Unprune · 06/11/2010 16:00

ooer
Marking my place
I watched SO MUCH tv 20 years ago that I'm sure I'd know who he was
So if you felt like dropping a clue in next time you're in the loo, that would be nice, I have nothing on this evening myself Grin

I'm trying to think who I fancied off the telly in 1990.
Probably one of the blokes from Capital City
OMG is it one of them? Shock

BooBooGlass · 06/11/2010 16:09

I'll stake my bet as to it being one of the flying doctors....

BooBooGlass · 06/11/2010 16:10

O GOD
Or Macgyver. Imagine that

Errmmmm · 06/11/2010 16:14

Have fun Grin

Unprune · 06/11/2010 16:15

I think you're aiming too high
If he's sub-Karl kennedy
Ooh look 1987 in tv!

tiredemma · 06/11/2010 16:16

Unprune · 06/11/2010 16:16

Gah

Actors are often unsettled types...don't judge him yet...let him come and see what happens! Many men chill out in their 50s...could be good!

pippop1 · 06/11/2010 18:40

Tries to Google actors who were born in 1957......

Unprune · 06/11/2010 19:43
