Welcome to the Turning Tavern

[Gay40]

This is a thread for women who unexpectedly (or not) find themselves attracted to another woman.

Polly, ask her if her favourite film is the secretary

Ooh, that's how I like my ladies. Sounds to me like you should play hardball with her.

My xGF (not WI-15yearsworthof-Q) was a bit of a rottwieler on the surface, actually she was really insecure and what she wanted was for someone not to be afraid of her and to see beyond the growling.

Charles, I am not always so forward actually that's a downright lie

I sent wiq flowers and bought her a lottery ticket, I'm a true romantic if it wins I want it back though

I must go and sleep, will look forward to reading updates tomorrow!

polly, I vote for emailing her tomorrow.
As to your terse emaiul - I did mention a while ago that gentle doesn't work with the type of personality she is, that she needs 'reigning in' i.e. a bit of a strong hand approach (and she responds to being told off ha).

sleepless, 'stop hiding and ruining what we have' are the words straight from my mouth too! Ilike your wiq more and more! (applauds) Trust her, she's handsling it very well and in a mature way, she probably is attracted to your personality as you aer teenagerish and you complement each other (she is wise and smooth).

Likea yes you did, and Charles's description of her ex strikes a cord - The Bolter is actually quite soft-centred underneath the flinty exterior. I just find it really hard to be firm/pushy obv need lessons from sleepless

I think I might have said before I'm a bit crap at this...

Is that film the one with Maggie Gylenhaal (sic?). That's a bit filthy, that one.

sleep you are also rather boyish (straight forward, not too patient but also quite shy about having feelings - it can be very endearing, you know), and she comes cross as v.feminine, so a good match again. Comment about killing her cat is spot on too.

Secretary is a brilliant film Took a few viewings but it definitely grew on me...

In my defence, I thought today was Wednesday

Oh dear, have you been inhaling paint again Gay?

Charles you are absolutely right that I need to get myself on that sofa, even if it's the edge. Must pick a moment when she's drinking wine and too mellow to protest. Or must think of something to show her like a book etc.

Yes something you'd need to sit really close to her with, to point out the interesting bits over her shoulder.

Loveis, yes, it's hasrd to be friends if you fabcy someone, but if you see it a first stage it can be enjoyable. Many examples show that friendships as close as this often develop into more. If not at least you can just enjoy them and be selfless. I'd personally take this rather than stop contact with wiq.

polly, yes that's the udea, polly. Could start nottoo close but inch further as if I'm distracted about the book and not noticed.

Wiq does that - the sitting and peering over the shoulder thing and very nice it is too.

Personality wise, I find it difficult to express my emotions but once I've made my mind up to do it I get straight to the point and pretend to be brave. I am quite girly in that I like to do hair and make up before I go out etc

sorry getting tired, shocking typos. Been shifting boxes all day, unpacking - no end to it..

Are you moving house as well, Likea ?

Off to bedlam. Night all. x

sleep, I did mean boyish personality (not looks) in matters of the heart, when they make their mind they just blurt it out while being terrified! women can hint forever or be more underhand and try to influence. I wish I had your courage, altrhough if I had that kind of gushing encouragement I might have been brave! your wiq is a typical woman though , softly softly getting you to fall for her.

yes G40, did mention a while ago (on my thread) - what do you mean 'as well' - thought you were just redecorating!

I've taken a leaf out of sleepless's book and emailed her. I decided if she's going to back out I'd rather know sooner than later and if I don't ask, I might be waiting days. That's me being brave. Wibble.

I more meant as well as everything else going on

Likea, she is definitely all woman she is perfect

Very brave of you Polly! Fingers crossed

I have changed my profile pic to a new one of wiq and i and keep looking at like a soppy bloody teenager
