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

Only the best is good enough.

Snape if he is over 5ft 6 and he has hair, would it be ok if he had no teeth Grin

ChaoticismyLife · 20/07/2012 17:44

Well, I won't be hanging around until 2015, will be too busy having fun Grin

I do wonder who makes up these things though and what makes them pluck dates like that out of thin air.

Twas me who posted the link Chaotic but I daren't do it myself in case it says I will definitely be getting married!

And thanks for the info on Eharmony. The Ex will most definitely not have joined at a cost of £30 a month.

Snape!!! You most certainly DO look like a woman!! You are lovely and look nothing like a transvestite!! And I still wish I was your friend in real life Smile

TimeForMeAndDD · 20/07/2012 17:50

If you take the test again Chaotic you will come up with a different date and info, so just keep trying until you get something you like Grin

MrsToddNeeLovett · 20/07/2012 17:54

Can anyone quickly talk me through money etiquette? (first date for years, can you tell? lol)

So we're going for dinner first - do I offer to pay for it all? go halves? what do I do if he offers to pay for it all?

I have a tendency to overthink things which causes me great anxiety! Please tell me how you handle this sensitive part? don't want to be a mug but am not a scrounger either :-)

MrsToddNeeLovett · 20/07/2012 17:56

Snape, sorry I know this is very unmumsnetty but you sound amazing :-)

TimeForMeAndDD · 20/07/2012 18:00

MrsTodd I personally would offer to pay half but be secretly delighted if he took care of the whole bill Just be slow at getting your purse out Grin

Snape is amazing, I stalk follow her on Facebook Grin

ChaoticismyLife · 20/07/2012 18:08

Time Jan 16th 2015 with someone whose name begins with H this time Grin

Yes, Snape is wonderful, I can't remember whether she's on my fb or not, I added quite a few in one go and can't remember who I added and didn't Blush

Grin The last initial was better. 'D' for Dickhead covers the majority of men, it was bound to be right. Err, I do hope you remember adding ME on Facebook! Grin

snapespeare · 20/07/2012 18:19

. Thank you ladies, I need to feel fabulous for date, so the talking-up is just lovely! :) women always think I'm great, men are therefore in very general terms a bit odd

I do look like a bit of a tranny, especially if I'm meeting a minister or senior person for work, where I wear a scarf to hide lower neck tattoos and it looks like I'm concealing a bobbing adam's apple. Grin

snapespeare · 20/07/2012 18:22

Teeth!!!! I'd managed to wipe out the trauma of mr-no-teeth!!! Thanks time Hmm. Grin

snapespeare · 20/07/2012 18:24

mrstodd. I offer to pay half, protest once if he offers to pick up the bill and gracefully acquiesce if he insists.

Doesn't mean he's getting any though!*

*disclaimer - unless it's Matt Smith.

TimeForMeAndDD · 20/07/2012 18:30

Grin Teethgate date was brilliant!

ChaoticismyLife · 20/07/2012 18:34

Time yes, I remember you Grin

I think the last time I was adding people from here onto fb was the night Snape went meeting Johnny Depp

Hmm at being missed out for Johnny Depp Grin

OP posts:
snapespeare · 20/07/2012 18:35

Teeth-gate is still on my fb. Nice enough bloke. No teeth. :)

(mrstoddneelovett smashing name btw, one of my few talents is to be able to sing the entirety of 'Sweeney Todd' even when very drunk absolutely faultlessly. And we wonder why I'm single... Hmm )

ChaoticismyLife · 20/07/2012 18:36

Amazing how the small things in life can cheer you up isn't it?

Just found some Galaxy counters that I'd forgotten about ShockGrin

They are only teeth Snape, don't be so shallow!

Grin
snapespeare · 20/07/2012 18:38

**double disclaimer - or johnny depp. I saw a guy walking through the station last night who looked almost exactly like mr depp. Shoulder length curly dark hair, 'tasche, little beard. Wearing a straw hat. I actually did a double take. Bet he had a weedy list little voice or disgusting personal hygiene though. Should have asked if I could see his teeth! :)

TimeForMeAndDD · 20/07/2012 18:38

I've just eaten the M&M's I hid from DD, but due to having to eat them furtively so I didn't have to share them I didn't really enjoy them. Serves me right I suppose. Grin

ChaoticismyLife · 20/07/2012 18:41

I'm alone atm, dd is upstairs, ds is on the computer in the front room, even the dog is elsewhere.

TimeForMeAndDD · 20/07/2012 18:42

My postman has a bit of a thing for me, he even puts a 'x' on my 'sorry you were out' card BUT he has the most horrible teeth. Very very worn, into an arch shape and black, yes, black. Such an unattractive look. Nice bloke, shame about the teeth, rather than Nice bloke, shame about the lack of teeth Grin

TimeForMeAndDD · 20/07/2012 18:43

You can saviour your Galaxy counters then Chaotic Grin

I'm supposed to be low carbing. It was going well until I unhid the M&M's. I'm very disappointed with myself.

ChaoticismyLife · 20/07/2012 18:51

My diet went to pot some time last week and hasn't recovered since then.

I've finished them now...enjoyed every one of them Grin

Wrt teeth...I blame the lack of NHS dentists. I think we should campaign to have dentistry returned properly to the NHS. How on earth are we supposed to find men with nice teeth otherwise WinkGrin
