It's not a date! Someone slap me

Sleepless - if you find you're mutually intrigued and find each other endless fascinating, then you might well find yourself in the same boat as me and that's the Love Boat.

Fridgemagnet · 12/04/2012 10:16

Yes I wonder how many women the Tavern can hold? I guess everyone is very thirsty.

Loveisthemessage · 12/04/2012 10:24

What are you trying on?

sleeplessindenial · 12/04/2012 10:39

Everything GrinBlush

Jeans that have a little bit of elastic in them as they stay up whereas normal jeans don't, long vest tops x100 scarfs (why??) and jackets.

Think I have made my mind up.

Am running out of time though, I on have dottyPs near me without going into town.

2 hours to go.....

Off to look at ear rings Grin

onanightlikethis · 12/04/2012 10:41

Expose the neck... That's such a sexy bit IMHO.....

sleeplessindenial · 12/04/2012 10:47

I am taking notes Grin

It is not easy walking down the road trying to mn I just narrowly avoided a lamppost

I am also now poor.

onanightlikethis · 12/04/2012 10:49

Whereare you going sleepless? Shoulders also very nice .....:)

Fridgemagnet · 12/04/2012 10:55

Sleep Just wanted to add....the leaning in you talked about when you were together with your wiq is VERY significant. I think I did that a lot with my wiq when we very first met up...couldn't get close enough in fact Grin
Good luck, enjoy your date and don't forget to take notes so you can report back....will be propping up the bar later to hear all about it.....

sleeplessindenial · 12/04/2012 10:58

As long as it doesn't rain we are taking the dc to the park and for lunch and back to hers?

Can't do shoulders I have stretch marks on the top of my armsBlush

So glad I started slimming world last month Grin

onanightlikethis · 12/04/2012 11:01

:) I'm not sure what it's like for everyone else but for me it's like I have an itch that needs to scratched....

pollyblue · 12/04/2012 11:21

sleepless fret not! she obviously thanks you're fab as you are. Have a lovely afternoon.

Loveis Gay's suspicions were right, there are a lot more lurkers out there than we realised. I think the bar will be heaving tonight when sleepless reports back.....

sleeplessindenial · 12/04/2012 11:35

An hour to go.

My dc are playing up and I am stressed.

And feeling guilty, nervous, excited and paranoid BlushI am worried that I am imagining things.

I am also worried incase im not imagining things!

I don't know about an itch that needs scratched, I just want a kiss really badly Blush

Loveisthemessage · 12/04/2012 11:40

Just be yourself. It obviously worked the first time. Go and enjoy...
Deep breaths.

See in the bar tonight with or without bed hair Grin

KirstyWirsty · 12/04/2012 11:40

I feel very excited for you Sleepless .. but what about your DP? Have you considered him at all in all this?

(Sorry to put a damper on .. but we are all cheering you on to cheat)

Loveisthemessage · 12/04/2012 11:41
  • See YOU
Loveisthemessage · 12/04/2012 11:43

Nothing has happened yet...

alicetrefusis · 12/04/2012 11:48

Hello All

This thread is a lifeline right now. I am so confused. Yes she does feel the same way tho the sexual attraction is more on my side than hers, and that worries me. We have slept together twice - each time very different - quantities of alcohol had been consumed....we talk for hours on the phone.

It's like my world has tipped on its axis and I am walking around in a state of semi-permanent arousal Blush

But there are so many ishoos...

sleeplessindenial · 12/04/2012 11:49

She can't come Sad

She has just called me from a&e as her dc has had an accident and needs stitches.

She is going to call me when she gets home and wants me to come for a coffee though.

So hopefully i will still see her today, hope he dc is ok though.

Kirsty - I feel very guilty about dp. I have almost cancelled meeting her loads of times because of him. I don't know what I should be doing, i haven't actually done or said anything wrong yet but I would not be at all happy of this was reversed and it was him doing and feeling what I'm feeling.

teedeeuk · 12/04/2012 11:58

Alice - I'm sorry there are 'ishoos'. Are you able to talk about them? Are they on both sides?
