Help! Impulsive blind date in 2.5 hours ..

19 replies

Phwooooar · 09/03/2012 17:44

What to wear??
Have agreed to meet in 2.5 hours - stupidly impulsive but I think it's the only way I'd go through with it! Any ideas for blind date outfit? Meeting at train station and going for drink/s.. God, am nervous

You need a red carnation in your buttonhole and carry a copy of the Financial Times. Stand under the clock

Phwooooar · 09/03/2012 17:55

Thank you TWG - very helpful...what do I do if there isn't a clock?

There's always a clock... somewhere.

As for the outfit... choose your 'look' to suit your mood - full bondage gear, french maid, tart with a heart, dressed up to the nines or down to the zeros, feel free to go with whatever turns you on.

Or, as it's Friday night and the pubs'll crammed with office workers, wear something you won't feel out of place in and which will accentuate your best features - a slightly plunging neckline if it's your decolletage and/or bum hugging trousers if it's your rear end.

Spontaneous is good - I wish you luck and hope you'll be back with an update later.

Btw, don't forget the condoms Grin

Wear your favourite clothes that you feel good in. Be yourself...if you tell yourself you are the one deciding if you like him, you will be more relaxed...don't talk about exes unless he asks. It will either be enjoyable or dead boring...but either way you will have a story to tell your friends. It's just a drink. Don't judge on appearances too much to start either...give him a chance to show his personality!

Phwooooar · 09/03/2012 18:45

Oh fuckity fuck, still don't know what to wear. Bondage gear not really the thing for first date - or maybe I'm out of touch. Haven't done this for a very long time.

Thanks FF - it's his personality via email that got me into this so let's hope for the best...

I met my husband (via a work colleague) on a blind date +10years ago.

I spoke to him on the phone first, and felt he was lovely. And a very good match. And I am one fussy beehatch, so that is saying something!

Although he was 2 hours late and wearing an awful shirt, but things went well and here we are 10 years and one dd later. Oh and a dog.

Fuck it, wear the bondage gear I practically did

izzyizin · 09/03/2012 22:33

Tell her friends, fizz?

Phwoooar's got to tell her mumsnet pals first Grin]

tallwivglasses · 09/03/2012 22:42

oooh, wonder how she's getting on...

izzyizin · 09/03/2012 22:46

Hope Phwoooar's not meeting Deirdre's Mr Floppy ex, tall

Wish I'd told her to ask him to recite the alphabet before she gets the condoms out... Grin

Grin
izzyizin · 10/03/2012 18:57

Either he's stuck on 'o' or they're on their 3rd pack of condoms Wink

Come on, Phwoooar... spill!

Phwooooar · 10/03/2012 19:15

Phwooooar! He was/is surprisingly sexy in a modest sort of way - not sure if he was Deidre's Mr Floppy ex. In fact... am seeing him again tonight - watch this space. And, please, no condoms - yet!

So, maybe the bondage gear tonight Wink

OP posts:
tallwivglasses · 10/03/2012 19:33

That doesn't sound like a description of Mr F thank god

Seeing him again tonight, eh? Oooer Phwoooar!

I'm with izzy on this one - If it feels good, do it!

Phwooooar · 10/03/2012 19:42

And....no I won't say yet..

I may tell you later

What do I wear tonight then? Grin

How about this little number that I found on ebay when looking for a swimsuit Wink - brave lady! www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-Transparent-Mesh-Mini-Micro-G-String-Bikini-/360385967790?pt=UK_Women_s_Swimwear&hash=item53e8ad76ae#ht_3265wt_986

Aaaargh! With or without the red pompoms? Grin

tallwivglasses · 10/03/2012 21:52

'...when looking for a swimsuit.'

I believe you Phwoooar. Thousands wouldn't Wink

izzyizin · 11/03/2012 17:32

Omigod Shock You could have at least added a warning not to 'click tp view supersized image', Phwoooar - those pompoms nearly took my eyes out.

All you need to know about Dee's Mr Floppy here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/relationships/1413265-New-relationship-and-he-cant-perform but as you're unlikely to have time to peruse this link before you meet up again with Mr Modestly Sexy, just ask him to recite the alphabet before you waste a johnny jump his bones Grin
