Hello! Please may I have a PM of the dishy doc too? We need a face to be able to picture the scene as snape describes it. Thank you!

Hi Stay Welcome back to the land of living! Grin

PoppaRob · 17/10/2011 13:54

So this is the McDreamy of the group huh? Wink

watchoutforthatsnail · 17/10/2011 13:56

ok, so i need to cancel with AD then.

more so now, things dont add up with him.
Like, he sold his house, and is now living with his sister... and had a job, and has only been in it 3 weeks, but now has now, as of today, got another job.
which he is planning on quitting to go travelling again in a few months when he has the money.

so, how do i cancel nicely? without vanishing, but without being mean?
can i just say ive met somone? but still stay on the site?

TimeForMeIsFree · 17/10/2011 14:03

Very nice.....

watch personally I would cancel. You don't seem so sure about him so save your £40. I would say that after giving it some thought you have decided a second date is not what you are looking for, that it's nothing personal, just that your lives are moving in different directions. Bon Voyage, Farewell, Goodbye, Adieu and all that! Oh and good luck too! Grin

adamschic · 17/10/2011 14:04

Watch, you can lie or be honest and say you've changed your mind as it doesn't feel right/arranging a date with someone else etc. He might be a bit sarky back but don't worry about it.

Please can you PM me Snapes dates username on POF (noticed she doesn't mind) so I can have a look! Be really interesting to see who is actually approved of amongst us.

lubeybooby · 17/10/2011 14:09

Yeah watch just say that after thinking about it a bit more, you don't think it's workable for various reasons

snape will be in Covent Garden now. Looking into those eyes......

watchoutforthatsnail · 17/10/2011 14:17

time, its a first date. I will do it later. Bugger. I dont like having to do that. hes just another of those ' hasnt yet grown up by age 30' men, which, while i want fun and things too, i want somone thats abit responsible.

and yes, she will. lucky, lucky woman. with his messed up hair and stubble. gggrrrrr ;)

adamschic · 17/10/2011 14:20

Very nice Snape, hope you both hit it off! I like what he said about chemistry he got it in a nutshell Grin. Definitely not a 'bit of rough' imo.

Still on with mine for the weekend afaik. He describes himself as confident so I am hoping he is, I find confidence and self assurance, attractive.

watchoutforthatsnail · 17/10/2011 14:27

so do i adams:)

what else is he like?

TimeForMeIsFree · 17/10/2011 14:35

Oh sorry watch I thought this was a second date. We definitely need a spreadsheet Grin I would still be straight with him. You don't owe him anything and you don't have to justify yourself, you are just putting yourself first which is the right thing to do. Smile

Zanywany · 17/10/2011 14:35

All I seem to be getting off POF these days is 'hi sexi lke your pix'

Still not heard from roller skating date for tomorrow....sigh...

NOt heard from Mr Yacht either....double sigh.....

But Mbis has just been in touch now his internet is working and said he will be in touch later...not sure about him but in the back of my mind I'm thinking about what Zoo said so we'll see.

I would have said meet him and see Watch but if your already not sure about the distance thing then text him and say its been in your mind and because of the distance you don't think it would work. It is nice to date someone local so you can see them briefly for a quickie coffee etc between dates

lubeybooby · 17/10/2011 14:44

Totally agree with Time re AD, watch.

Zany what a pain... all of em!

I've got nothing at all happening at the moment apart from BoR who I presume will ring or text me tomorrow when he has his calltime and texts and whatnot again.

We went for a sandwich & a cup of tea, then walked around a couple of shops (forbidden planet!) He has atrocious skin, impeccable manners, quite shy I think & I got a kiss (hear that snail?! A kiss!) on the cheek, but lovely!) & asked for a drink 'next time' . He had a 'lovely time' & I want to lick his sonic screwdriver him.

Not sure if there was that elusive spark, but by god it's high-fives that I got to drool at him for a couple of hours.

On my train home, like a good girl. :)

TimeForMeIsFree · 17/10/2011 16:20

Grin Fabulous!!

I think. Atrocious skin? As in acne?

watchoutforthatsnail · 17/10/2011 16:20

snape! woohooo. bloody fantastic!

v. jealous of the kiss. how was his hair (!!)

First date, and it seems you are going to get a second too.
:) :)

adamschic · 17/10/2011 16:21

Sounds very nice Snape, would you want to see him again?

Thanks to Watch and Lubey btw for the PM's.

Zanywany · 17/10/2011 16:23

Glad you got to droll over himit went well Snape abd he seems keen if he is already asking about next time. Does he live far from you?

I am seeing a friend tonight, its purely platonic well it is now but he is a brilliant friend who is good to cuddle with and I usually manage to bribe him to give me a shoulder rub Grin

watchoutforthatsnail · 17/10/2011 16:34

yeah, does he live near??? when, when, when:)

zany - is this the snogged guy from the other night?

im going to tell AD later, and attemp to stop lusting after silly man/childs.
Instead, i shall accept a date from someone else ( that has been heavily hinting, and ive been avoiding) but who lives near. A coffee type thing.

S is super keen. Even i can tell this. Hes already firming up plans for thursday and making sure its all going to go well and im happy. Bless him.

Zanywany · 17/10/2011 16:45

No this is someone I have known since I was 18, we wshagged went out for a few weeks a couple of years ago. He is a lovely amazing person but we don't seem to be relationship material.

charlottesmum5 · 17/10/2011 16:47

woo hooooooo i have a date tonight!!!!! Not Mr 8" Cock, although he has been texting me all day, despite me IGNORING me!!!

I have a date with Mr 22ft boat who has a house in Weymouth but works in Birmingham in the week. I'm sooooooo nervous, he is 10 yrs older and I normally go for younger boys men.

Wish me luck!!!

lubeybooby · 17/10/2011 16:53

Sounds very very very good Snape :o

And yeahhh go charlottes! I love older men. Can't bear silly boys at all, eurgh. I did have a relationship once with one my age but he was still all going out partying, xbox, weed smoking, always doing up his car and generally living like my 18 year old student brother. No thanks
