Here's hoping on finding a decent guy/girl under the mistletoe who doesn't use hun or text speak. Dating thread No.7

[Zanywany]

Off you go

You know what to do

Is said ape one of your admirers?

As an aside, and a direct quote from the fillum, it's Hedley.

Sorry Hedley

No, one of his photos is of him with an ape on his shoulder

Have added a fireman and a bod in finance to my collection today. They both seem normal. So far. Probably they will turn out to be as barking as the others.

Well, *santas", if his name is Sam he may well be the hero next door!

Why do I do a and a " and end up with this" instead of this? Because I'm a dickhead - that's why!

at Poppa! and good luck Stratters! Just have fun and enjoy yourself.

Hello all how is everyone?

I've given up trying to keep up the last few days, but starting to emerge from the pre xmas working like a loon madness and I spy fairy lights at the end of the tunnel at last!

Well I have NO idea what's happened to me at all. I'm not even interested in my FWB now either haven't seen him for ages and don't care. Meh.

Oh - I did have a slight flirtation and lovely tummy flutter at the thought of possible happenings. It was on twitter, some of (what seemed like) flirtation going on - but I checked out his tweets and I'm pretty sure he is actually gay and very friendly, not straight and fancies me. Bugger!

Do you block the ones that you're not interested in?

Well I'm all partied out, for this weekend at least. Just wrapped the last pressie and all I need now is a Christmas snog and just had a message off a guy who looks extremely fit for the purpose .

I stopped messaging all the flaky onliners so lets hope he has a bit more to say for himself.

I meant to say oneliners!

I don't often block people only if they keep sending messages when they have been ignored. Just blocked someone now because of this. He said 'Hi, do you want to chat'. Yes of course I do thats why I've ignored you twice already! Or I block them if they have annoyed me in other ways.

morning :)

hope you are all ok. its nearly christmas, can you even belive that :)

Sponge - so, whats the update with all the dates?

lubey - even closer to those fairy lights now :) and i know how you feel, ive gone the same, im considering it a dating hibernation and shall re emerge for dating in the spring. In the meantime im enjoying not thinking about it. AND, its nearly christmas... did i mention that already? :) Bloody love it!!!

Weirdly, i got this text yesterday ' If i ask for you for christmas, do you think santa will oblige?' I dont know who its from. I deleted all my numbers from men ive dated this year, it must be one of them. Ive not paid my phone bill and cant afford to until friday and annoyingly got cut off the same day, so i cant text back to find out. Probably a good thing. lol

Watch, fate is telling you not to reply I think .

i think you are right adams ;)

i shall instead think of it as mr epic sex thinking about me ( in stockings, in keeping with the santa thing... ) and yeah, the rest is for in my head only!

the reality is its probably the ginger mullet.

best not to know. lol

watch I think adams is right. def best not to know - just bask in the warm glow of thinking it was Mr Epicsex

My dates, well...nothing from Fri night man. He did text me on Fri night, but nothing since then, I won't bother chasing him!

My date for Weds I haven't heard anything from in days though he has been online. So either he's changed his mind (the fool) or he's just expecting it to go ahead. Or he thinks I'm ignoring him. Am going to message him tonight, something brief just to confirm if Weds is on, and if he doesnt reply that will be my answer and I can stay indoors by the fire eating the Xmas chocs instead

have another couple of guys on POF but not really that bothered, if their conversational skills show any sign of improvement I might consider a date in the new year.

My boss asked me today how my weekend was and if I pulled (!) I didn't tell him of course

He might just be presuming that its still going ahead Sponge, some guys tend to make plans and then not realise that they need to re-confirm
Boss definately sounds interested.

I spent quite a bit of time with Mr Yacht this weekend, still going really well

My parents bloody stalky neighbour has found me again.

Where has he found you? Online?

Feeling a bit fed up today. Went on pof sent several messages, not one reply. Exh has found new gf and asked dd to pick her a pandora bracelet and 5 charms ( I never got anything like that when we were together!)
Plus have broken another tooth so trip to the bloody dentist.
Feel old fat and lonely.

Purple, have you tried OkCupid? That does not seem to be as full of idiots as pof. It is free too.

Must admit, I know how you are feeling, I felt the same, it's crap huh.

Un-mnetty hugs for you.

On one of the sites I joined. He found me last time and viewed my profile 100s of times. He's very married, and very blocked now.

On an upside, get this, a really lovely looking (and sounding) man who MAKES SNOW!!!

I could like that very much.

PPD, I'm liking Muddy Matches and Uniformdating, they're both paying ones but the men seem pretty genuine so far.

zany, good to hear alls well with you and Mr Yacht :)

I def think my boss is interested too have to try not to get too excited about it though cos he is not someone to have anything other than a fling with! but hopefully there will at least be that...

santa, like the sound of the man who makes snow, how cool is that!

well I got a reply along the lines of oh I'm really sorry ever so busy with work (which I was about as he's a builder & most of them have packed up now for Xmas) so he doesn't think he can make it. And he didn't suggest an alternative though was quite chatty & friendly in his reply.

Can't decide whether to just delete him or give him another chance, doesn't seem like he's that bothered. Mind you I'm probably not either, was just hoping to get a last snog in before xmas...oh well, there's always drinks with my boss on Friday

It's christmas hates. Goodwill to all men, even the ones who let you down. There are two houses going up in my street and the tradies are literally going hammer and tong to get them finished, so relax and see what he comes up with in the New Year.
