I did see it but am using the mn app and once I've pressed add message I can't scroll back up to re read so forget what's been posted. And I can't read back through pages either it's so annoying. I need to get my laptop fixed.

Glad I am not boring you all going on about wiq Smile she is the most interesting thing ever at the moment, although has understandably been pre occupied today so I've had less relationshipy texts but she has wanted me with her which has been nice to know.

I am undecided what to wear tomorrow, wiq has invited me round to raid her shoes and wardrobe, but for some unknown reason I am quite convinced I want to wear one of those playsuit all in one shirts and top type things. No idea why as I've never seen one I thought looked half decent in my life Blush

OP posts:
pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:19

I've never seen a good one either Grin

Gay40 · 28/04/2012 00:20

Like an all in one thing that zips up the front, like a big babygro?

Polly's Bolter is a bundle of mixed messages but I reckon she'll give in eventually

I wish I had your faith Gay Sad

pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:21

Yep, that's the thing.

Gay40 · 28/04/2012 00:23

I think she'll be one of those that does actually dabble with women, but never really admits it or considers herself anything other than totally straight.

OP posts:
pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:26

that's exactly what I've thought about her all along - well, until she kept reiterating 'I'm definitely not gay!'. My gut vibe was yep, she's snogged a few women in her time....

pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:27

And now I really don't know to think - she's now officially single and knows I like her but nothing has happened...oh shit, she must think I'm a right munter

Gay40 · 28/04/2012 00:28

No, I don't think it is about you. Besides, I am sure you aren't a munter

Have you got another date sorted?

OP posts:
pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:30

swift kick appreciated thankyou.

Sorry, I'm usually made of quite stern bouncy stuff, I'm just a bit down at the moment and having a confidence crisis combined with 'well the hell do I do next?!'

Gay40 · 28/04/2012 00:31

Yes...understandable, given that she is so bloody wishy washy about putting some direction into things.

G40, not sure what you are asking. Do I worry about age gap - yes, as described in detail, because of her attitude to life and new radical changes at that age, and also whether she sees me as too young for her. Do I worry about 'looking up to'- no doesn't worry me, I did explain it wasn't some blind admiration I just have a lot of respect for her apart from feelings.

pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:33

No, I emailed her v briefly Weds night, in reply to an email from her, and I asked for her mobile number, she's not replied.

likeatonneofbricks · 28/04/2012 00:37

polly I had exactly the same low point a few days ago as you know, just what you describe - contagious! did she reply? if not you can't do anything, why not chill and wait as you claiming your feelings aren't that strong Wink? I'm too in love to be able to chill, but I still found a happy-ish slower pace, though I have set up some structure of meetings to look forward to for a while at least, that def helps. As you don;t have that, wait for her to suggest something or at least reply to yours withher number. I wouldn't be so sure that she dabbled. Alert: if she dabbled but now states she's DNG it means she didn't like it enough!

likeatonneofbricks · 28/04/2012 00:38

polly what else did you say there?

pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:44

in my email? I answered something she'd asked me, nothing serious but I'd rather not say here, and said oh btw would you mind giving me your mobile number? that was it.

pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:45

to be fair, two days is no time at all in WIQ-land Smile

likeatonneofbricks · 28/04/2012 00:45

polly if she wanted to get involved more than a friend, she would, especially if she has any experience. Can you just leave it for a while? if not, it means you are more emotional than you admit = dangerous. I get the impression she is not the type who likes a ot of pursuading or initiative, sounds like she likes to lead, so let her decide if she wants anything else, imo.

likeatonneofbricks · 28/04/2012 00:46

yes, i'd be surprised if she already replied really. I don't mean exactly what did you say - but was it a compliment, a hint?

likeatonneofbricks · 28/04/2012 00:47

i wonder whether she asked something like ' sure you don't want more than friendship?'!

pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:48

no, no hint or compliment, nothing like that. Was work related.

pollyblue · 28/04/2012 00:49

Nooooooooo! she's not made any reference to anything like that at all, either in person or email.
