I have about 5% of the confidence I used to have Shiney. I still have a better self image than a few of my much much smaller friends though, somehow!

Trust me though you are lovely. And even at a 'chubby' 14 you are still under the size I was when I was at my most sucessful and confident man wise.

shiney you are gorgeous and you have nothing at all to worry about! I'm a size 14, albeit under protest die to having a wardrobe of size 12 clothes BUT, I do actually like my body better naked at this size. I love my boobage especially!! I have learned to love myself just by being happy, being kind to myself, I have a nice smile so I use it a lot, I'm a nice person so I make sure other people know that too. It's not all about size or looks. Just have confidence in yourself, stop being your own critic, you are the person you should love most in your life!

And don't forget to post that bloody parcel!! Grin

Shiney YOU are very pretty and very lovely too!! Be told woman!! Every day I want you to get up and look in the mirror, smile at yourself and tell yourself how gorgeous you are Grin

You know something else shiney you have a fantastic sense of humour, your FB posts keep me entertained no end and have me laughing out loud. Honestly, you have no reason whatsoever to wobble. Trust me!!

good luck zany!

watchoutforthatsnail · 29/10/2011 19:53

shine -honestly, you are fine. and tbh. i think most of the men are bloody lucky to get a date with any of us. we are an attractive bunch of women. Way more attractive than we give ourselves credit for i think.

and if you want an ego boost. log out of pof, then search the women in your area the same age as yourself. I can almost promise you, any of us are quite a lot more attractive than more than 80% on there.
fact!

and i need to say dorry for my appaling typing today. my fingers are not wokring ar all.

TimeForMeIsFree · 29/10/2011 20:00

Good luck zany have a great night!!

shine I agree with everything watch says above^^!!

TimeForMeIsFree · 29/10/2011 20:09

Threads gone quiet. Xfactor must be on Grin

hatesponge · 29/10/2011 20:34

Grin at Xfactor!

feeling better about lack of contact now having remembered the following from last night :

  1. He snores. Loudly. So much so it woke me up several times.
  1. He made me spoon with him. I hate touching anyone when I'm trying to sleep, it makes me v uncomfortable. Every time I woke up cos of the snoring he was all cuddled round me - most annoying!
  1. He has a hairy back. And hairy shoulders. Which he shaves (the shoulders not the back...so they were stubbly whilst the back was hairy. Not good. Not good at all!).
prettypurpledaisy · 29/10/2011 20:43

My potential date called at 12 to say he felt ill and would probably not be able to meet this evening but that he would call later just to confirm. Not heard anything so assume he is either a) not feeling better or b) on pof looking for someone else.
Oh well you win some you lose some :(

watchoutforthatsnail · 29/10/2011 20:55

sponge - there you go then. See, quite possibly you wouldnt want to date him anyway. ANd im with you on the whole no touching while asleep. It fucks me off. I dont even want somone facing me while im asleep. Because i am weird. ( ponders possibility of seperate bedrooms and bathrooms with any potential mate)

purple :(

Ooh sponge your last post just reminded me why I so love being single! and you escaped before he started with the farting!! Grin

daisy Sad

watch That's a good plan!

TimeForMeIsFree · 29/10/2011 21:04

Remind me ladies, exactly why are we dating/looking for dates?? What the hell is there to look forward to when we have one of these things known as men?

lubeybooby · 29/10/2011 21:10

It's WONDERFUL with the right one, Time! The trick is finding that one....

OP posts:
hatesponge · 29/10/2011 21:14

watch, yes probably not. Despite the looks, the above did/would annoy me. And he constantly called me babe/baby Hmm.

I think I might need separate bedrooms if I ever get involved with anyone. Even with the Ex I really really loved I could just about bear him cuddling me to sleep...but apparently once I was asleep I used to shove him off to the other side of the bed Grin

Purple :( that's pants. Men are often quite shit. However they are also generally pathetic at being ill, so he might just be pn his sickbed feeling sorry for himself. Give it 24 hours.

Time, if only that were true Grin. I came in from the bathroom last night & he was like don't come in for a sec I just farted Shock Hmm to be fair he did apologise. and I wasn't in the room when he did it...

TimeForMeIsFree · 29/10/2011 21:22

I've never really had 'wonderful' lubey. It was a constant battle with exP, full of drama, ups and downs, lot's of lows but hardly any highs, he was so moody and negative. Nope, can't say I've ever had wonderful.

Grin OMG sponge you have so had a lucky escape with that one. Grin
