Time wasters need not apply, Soul Soothers come hither Dating Chat Part 11

[hatesponge]

Ta-da! Think this is the first one I've started.

I am still feeling somewhat feisty. Told my team off at work for being too noisy and was generally stroppy. Might have to go and start a row in AIBU or something!

So, dating, as you were etc

Not forgetting of course that I have a second date at the weekend!

chaotic - i know. mixture of naievity and dating someone way wealthier. never again. in fact its the only time ive done that.

time - could you not take the dress in? haha at being that desperate, its happened to the best of us ;)

the dude still hasnt told me where. honestly, im getting annoyed now, how hard is it? doesnt bode well, does it.

time, its the effort of tidying the house and changing the sheets that annoys me the most. Ive taken to going out leaving it a tip on purpose now.

Enjoy, I'm sure you'll have a lovely time :)

Oh god yes, the house and the sheets. I remember it well! Such a waste!

I could pay someone to take the dress in, perhaps. It's not something I can be bothered do myself. It would be worth it though as I do love it and feel good in it.

Could it be that he is busy at work watch? Although if the date is tonight then I do think he should have had where it is to be sorted by now.

Thanks chaotic twill be fab, I'm sure

he is at work, but pah - so am i :)
hes texted back and said he will try and think of a solution so we can both have a few drinks.

im still not convinced. hes one of those useless people that cant make plans, isnt he.

They have to meet me on my territory so to speak, somewhere safe. Not many people get to come to mine ib fact only mum sister, and 4 friends, well other than my male friend. Wish it could be more, but I am good with being friends, I still get that amazing, tight cuddle, he is there and listens. I open up to him, strangely. And he talks to me too.

oh watch, I hope he gives himself a shake & gets the venue sorted. That would be getting on my tits too now.
Time - chuckling at your drunken lips story. You didn't actually pucker up though did you?????
MLM - hadn't realised you were such a spring chicken! Glad you are having so much fun with your dates and can't believe they are young enough to just about be my children

I have been through a lot in my young life. But I am having fun and finding new friends.

watch he sounds ok to me. I like that he is saying he will sort things so you can both have a drink.

Post no, I looked at him but couldn't bring myself to do it. Especially as he had been chewing gum all evening too. I was a bit worried where it might end up

mlm if you don't mind me asking, just how old are you?

I just checked my joint account and my ex was close to where I am last week. It's freaked me a little to be honest.

I am 23 BTW.

MLM, just a thought, if you can check the joint account - can your ex do the same?

Definitely a spring chicken :)

He can, but my money goes into an account.in my own name and I don't use the joint account (intelligent emoticon)

But I still can get to it online and get statements.

A clever spring chicken! I should have known.

Just protecting myself and more importantly my son.

Ps obviously not clever enough not to marry a psycho.

Time - great profile, lots don't read the profile but for those who do, it's fab

I'm still down as an IE - still getting idiots but occasionally a nice one pops by, I average 20 messages a day. My profile is specific like Times, says exactly what I'm looking for and not looking for. I've met a few nice people and of course, hotbutdim messaged me on my first day of IE. He has a function to go to soon, black tie and has asked me as his plus one

I met with someone on Tues, personality great, body great, not sure about the face (mean) Will call him MrHospitality - job related. So, I think he's worth a second date and he has asked me out on Friday evening. He'll come to my town and says what shall we do. The problem I have is I rarely go out in my town, I have no idea where 40+ year olds go. Most of the pubs are young (and my kids are in them) or country pubs that are more restaurant than pub or are full of old regulars that stare at you as you walk in a la american werewolf in london (if you're my age, you'll get that!)

Could go to dinner I guess but not sure I like eating with a relative stranger

So where would you go? Dinner in pub or restaurant or take your chances with the country pubs full of regulars??

We all make mistakes - it is what you learn from those mistakes that really matters! You are clever & smart MLM.

MsC, is there a more barish kind of pub, or a restaurant with a bar in it?

Google the places. And in god I have Learnt plenty of lessons.

help- can someone tell me if im just being difficult?
This is the exhange of texts today:

me - this is me, not cancelling - impressed? lol, so times for later?
him - yes! you are still alive then, what time is good for you?
me - still alive, though possibly not at the end of the work day :) half 7? pub name? pub name? pub name?
him - tell me about it, BUSY! yeah, are we doing all 3 pubs then?
me - no, lol, just one, im driving.. hows the thumbs?
him - primed and waiting for a decent challenger... ive got tomorrow off, so lets party woooooo
me- hmm, have you been in the pub name? its not far from me so i could get trashed in there with you
him - that used to be my locak, so yeah, but dont fancy that
me - oh, ok
him - what does that mean in english
me - i cant really afford taxis all over town this month, so if we want to get trashed im afraid it needs to be near to me, if you i can drive and stick to soft drinks, both are good with me, so its up to you
him - why are you putting so much pressure on me, lol. let me think and ill try to work something out, would be nice for us both to have a few drinks
me - yeah, at a push you could come over, if you promise to not murder me
( yes, yesy, i know, awful of me)
him - i might if youi beat me at thumb wars, can we not go for a few drinks first and ill pick you up and se how things go
me - but then you cant drink?
him - dont youi worry aboiut me
me - but the whole thing was that you wanted a few drink and dont have to work tomorow, im not fussed and do have to work. But its not mean to be this difficult, perhaps it would be better if we leave it.

im exhasberated.
bar inviting him over - which yeah, bad choice, but the child isnt here and the neighbours all know him.... i dont think ive been difficult - or have i? is this why im single? or is he just messing me about?

OMG!!!! Just name a venue that works for you Watch & put yourself & him out of pain.

i know!!!! I though we had set a venue, one of the first three pubs, its like getting blood out of a stone.
im like this time, here, here or here. its not difficult, hes only got to pick one..
and then this whole fiasco.
i was just going to drive and have a coke, im not fussed. fucking ridiclous.
or is it me?
