Forget the olympics...we're aiming for dating gold.

Only the best is good enough.

As you were....:)

I seem to have not been here much recently - too much RL I think.

All still going along well with Mr Nice :) Am probably meeting his DS soon which is good although am slightly nerve wracked that I will forget how to talk or something equally unlikely Grin. Part of me would like to introduce the DC to him but tbh at the moment I am happy with how things are - I get qute a bit of free time as XH has them a lot and I'm not sure I am ready for talking things to the different level that I feel introducing people to DC would bring. Plus am irrationally again worried that my DC would put him off.

DC and I are going away on Saturday for a week - am hoping Northumberland will enjoy a little bit of sun

I have just been sent a text as Mr N is sorting through clothes and trying to decide whether to keep it or not - I get the deciding vote (am guessing his DS has said no Grin). I quite like it actually.....

Grin snape. you should have offered him your number!

One of my possible dates has deleted himself from POF. I'm guessing that date won't be happening now....

Yes please keep threads going.

I know I mainly lurk, cos I don't have the experience to advise having not gotten around to registering yet...but I am close, just a bit put off by all the bad fortune recently.

Even if you are not actively online dating your advise and guidance will be invaluable.

On another question...anyone ever done a holiday alone? Either 'singles' holiday or a holiday on your own.

DCs go away with xp next week and feel it would be an opportunity to get away. Where would you go? Abroad seems a bit on the pricey side although ibwould pay £600 for an all in ot half board deal. All the ones I've found have been 18-30s :(

Alternatively I could do UK break.

Just want to chill (beach and/or pool ideal) but I don't do spas...

I'm just walking up whitehall, the sun is shining and I just got checked out by an absolute surf-god, like a tall, muscular tanned Kurt Cobain. Maybe one of the team Australia beach volleyballers got lost? I actually mouthed the word 'wow!'I got a smile & a wink. Stuff you internet.

I need a gin. I have never seen anyone that handsome irl before. Good grief.

sponge have a good old moan, take the less supportive things your friends might say with a large pinch of wine salt and stick your chin defiantly skywards and your cleavage defiantly in the direction of male barstaff. You've had a shit few weeks, have one lovely night. please try to not let the ridiculous actions of others cloud your self esteem. you're fab, I'm fab, you know where you are with wine, it does what you expect it to!

My issues for the weekend.

It looks like we'll spend our first night(s) together.
And that means first time sex too, probably.
I say probably, because it looks like I'm going to be having my period. It might depend on how desperate he is. Wink

And I'm stressing in case he won't want to wear a condom (too much MN). It will probably turn out as all other things and he'll have a drawer full or something. :o

Plus, I need to find a good enough excuse for not joining parents and DS on the beach. I'm thinking doing DYI at home, but then I'd have to get him to help me with it. Perhaps a good test to see how we work together.
But that would involve avoiding my ex-cop ground floor neighbour, who always seems to be walking his dog and knows my father, who I don't want to tell yet.
It's like being a secret agent.

Grin I'm going to go for coffee, suss him out, like you do, but, if truth be known I am actually loving being single. He is going to have to be very good to entice me off the sofa. But I will might have sex with him if I get the chance Grin

Yes Scatty, the knob gets smaller and the balls get lower, it's not a good look. One of the things that has put me off dating to be honest Grin

Grin Snape. Let's not forget he's an accountant.

I was once approached by a crazy Nigerian (I think) as I left my place of study (at the time).
I did go out with him once, but he was about 1 hour late (god knows why I waited that long) and had a feel of my legs, then asked me if he could kiss me when saying goodbye.
I rang him a couple of days later saying that I had met someone else (I was sort of just pre-ex, between meeting him and starting to date him).

My guess was that he was looking for a visa. Wink

It was good for the ego, though, I have to say.
