ilove great news :)

sprouts excellent! :) I love happy news!

Still browsing.

Snape your friend seems lovely, great profile, well done.

Time, love the dress, bet the size 12 fits like a dream.

Back to lurking.

You missed a couple of words out there Snape. They are 'still' and 'single.'

Excellent news ilovesprouts for you anyway, at 'relationship.'

Thank you adams and I hope it fits!

Time :) If I offered to do one, you know I'd end up doing them all. I can barely summon the energy battle through my hundreds of daily messages be bothered with my own profile, let alone anyone else (except shelfasaurus. :) )

quickly - he messages me on pof a hey, and i heyed back.... and then nothing, soi asked if he was still ok for later and he dsaid he wasnt sure, he felt knackered and maybe we should leave it for another time. i said it was up to him. he said hes had a beer and hes going to come.

but now i definatley feel like ' just going because i have nothing else to do' and its knocked all my excitemnt on its head. So - im not giong to be someones ' im not sure' so after this evening that will be that.

how bloody predictable,a nd more fool me i think. lesson royally learnt.

Maybe he is playing hard to get? I am sorry watch men eh I don't know of/when I will see just friends, he said this week, and I got the feeling he was pretty keen but no day set yet. Maybe I scared him off, but we are still texting etc. Not sure, the other nights messages sounded promising.

NO FUCKING WAY! I would refuse to answer the door and hide behind the twitching blinds sofa. fuck him and all who sail in him!

i know.

hes due in 30 mins, we shall see.

Snape has summed up my sentiments too.

Tosser

Part of me thinks well maybe he has had a really hard day, and was still wanting to come but just a bit unsure in the way that we are sometimes before dates, a little self doubt etc BUT I don't know if that's just a bit Pollyanna of me trying to find a good explanation for it. And maybe the reality is that he IS just a tosser.

Was coming on to say how lovely to see all the excitement but then saw watch's man is being stupidbloke - sorry he is a potential dick after all

Great news on everyone else though

Must be the week for it, I have to decide who to have lunch with tomorrow... A) second date with MrManager. Had first date few weeks ago, loved his personality and we have lots in common but not sure if I fancy him. Been chatting lots and no sleaze so felt he deserved a 2nd chance. Workaholic so our schedules have only matched up for tomorrow in last few weeks. or B) 12 years younger, very fit and cute first date. Need to let them know tonight - I'm leaning towards A at the moment

And I'm seeing HotbutDim tonight, not seen him for a couple of weeks and I am planning on copious amounts of wine and sex

See what he has to say for himself, it's hard sometimes with texts and emails, you lose the nuances you'd get when speaking...it may not have been meant as half-hearted as it sounds in writing. If that makes sense.

Or maybe he is feeling like cos he is shattered he will be useless in the bedroom? I wonder if I am good in bed. Got me thinking now.

watch you prob have totally misinterpreted things & jumped to wrong conclusion..i'm sure he's as keen as he ought to be & it'll all be good:)

Maybe. He said he might not be great company. Then he perked up and was back to normalvwith messages going back and forth.

Mlk, I'm not shaging him, so no..

Depends ob how he is. Ge is crap online, Time can confirm that.

I know surely men worry though (and hope) and its okay not to be great company, sometimes just making the effort to be there is enough.

Watch I hope it's all going well.

I am having a distinctly 'meh' moment as the Scot has edited his profile to add in a comment that he is fed up with timewasters etc...which shouldn't bother me, I have only been on one date with him, I know it is not and never will be anything serious etc, but I suppose was a bit of an abrupt reminder that I am simply one of many and nothing special to him.

God I hate all this :(

Maybe I should just cancel Saturday?

Well just friends has been in touch. Very happy me, still don't know when he is seeing me yet, will update as and when. But getting good vibes. Shower time for me. Hope watch's date us going well and it was just cross wires.

Sponge - that's a strange thing for him to put. What's he actually looking for? Watch - hope he's with you now and things are looking better.

Libby he is not looking for a relationship, I know this - he is only down here from Scotland til the end of the summer so not looking for anything serious. I know that. But I don't like the reminder he is actively chasing others. Even though I have absolutely no right to object.
