real life challenges vs online misadventures, dating (and non-dating) thread 19

[hatesponge]

I have been to the pub. I'm not pissed but I am happy (well happier at least).

Conclusions reached this evening:

1. I am pretty bloody amazing, and any man I choose to date is very very lucky and should appreciate this fact!
2. Online dating is not for me. But I have learned from it that I shouldnt judge a book by it's cover and not to be so superficial
3. Man from the weekend DID like me, he is either still in love with his wife, or still hurt by her and lacking in confidence, there is NOTHING I did wrong, and he probably will be back at some point, but it will be too late because I will have MOVED ON :)
4. I am joining the gym and losing my remaining 3 stone.
5. I am going back to my old haunts in Essex this weekend because I have the best nights out there and feel at home. I intend to drink, dance, look fabulous and talk to anyone and everyone!

So that's my resolutions for the thread in essence, less moaning, more exercise, to have fun and be sociable to everyone, less aloof unavailable ice queen and more friendly and approachable.

You have really thought this through haven't you? Have you seen or heard from PM since you debuted your new profile? When will you be seeing him?

You girls are so devious not sure your a good influence on a young innocent thing like me i of course am just as bad as you girls if not worse LOL.

Heard from him Thursday (was that profile day?) yesterday, not yet today. We're planning gym this afternoon then dinner at mine, must rehearse going 'me?! No, that's not me'.

Stats: 111 visitors since Thursday. 20 messages. I'm exhausted. Hurry up universe. This could turn into a full time job.

:-). MLM. You do live very close to PM & I incidentally, so if there is slapping to be done, I'll give you first refusal. :-)

I feel all excited for you. If I were in your shoes I wouldn't be able to stop myself from having a great big cheesy grin on my face when I saw him I am loving your attitude Snape, something has happened to you, I think this new profile, and your new look, has done you good!

I think we need a profile administrator. I WILL NOT BE VOLUNTEERING.

When it comes to dinner, wear your hair down and a smile like like in your profile pic, cos you look gorgeous!

We are going to set you two up snape though someone keeps trying to push me and my oldest mate together. Won't happen though.

Snape If you're going to the gym first, does that mean you'll both be all sweaty for dinner? Excellent. Think of all those pheromones floating around.

Hubba hubba ;-)

How much do you all think a voice matters? Been texting someone from POF for a few days - nice & funny etc. Seems to tick all the boxes. But I've just spoken to him on the phone and his voice really put me off a bit. Not very manly, iyswim.

Am I being far, far too picky?

Also -there were loads of awkward silences :(

Apparently I sound young on the phone. My mates partner didn't recognise me and thought her phoned had been nicked so I wouldn't worry. I spent hours on the phone to someone, he was lovely we chatted for hours (5 hours non stop once) but no chemistry, still mates, still try to set each other up.

:-). Yes, we'll be cycling away together on the stationary bikes making sex noises. .

Off to check OKC. Getting a tad obsessive.....

Got my first message from a transvestite for my new profile . Profile pic torso and crotch of a guy in lacy pants and stockings. He dresses better than I do.

I wouldn't mind if he had anything interesting to say for himself, but just a 'hello'.

I am no longer checking my profiles, but leaving them as i never know when i might need them....though i had a peep at oasis earlier.

snape LOL, maybe us girls should look and take note

Can i ask you girls your opinion, is a scholl uniform sexy or slutty? Having a debate about it.

At this risk of sounding all girly - what are you wearing for dinner?

This is an excellent opportunity for him to see both sides of you. All sexily sweaty in the gym - think damp tendrils falling about your face . Then you emerge from the changing room - cool & fresh so he has one of those "Why, Miss Jones......but, but you're....beautiful!" moments.

(Not that he doesn't already know that, of course).

Think I am getting a bit carried away on your behalf .

this the

Sexily slutty, I would say MLM...if it's done right and not too OTT.

Crickey I know exactly what you mean, same happened to me once and it totally put me off meeting him. He looked really nice in his photos. We seemed to have loads in common and got on great by email. Then he phoned me adn he just sounded like the most depressed person you'd ever met - every syllable got dragged out forever. We talked on the phone twice (also loads of awkward silences) and I practically wanted to kill myself afterwards. I ended up cancelling our date and never meeting him!

Good, i have to wear it for a hen party. Think its a little OTT need an opinion, i have asked two people but they seem to think the shorter the better, erm i am not 16 anymore!!! But i look just as i did back then not sure thats a good thing though.

Yoga Good, so it's not just me, then. He has a really high pitched, droning voice - and didn't laugh once at my jokes. OK, they were probably rubbish but you think he'd make the effort .

MLM If I was your age, I'd go knicker-skimming short. Why not? Enjoy :)

Thats exactly how short it is...thought young married mum it doesnt say does it. cant wait til i am application is with the court but everything is behind cos the olympics

Schoolgirl dress-up = yuk. Sorry, just fuels middle aged men's lost youth/ power fantasies and leads to the overt sexualisation of children. Especially when teamed with hair in bunches and sucking a lollipop. YU can tell I'm fun on a hen night, can't you. (sorry MLM, don't want to piss on your parade)

Voice wouldn't do it for me crikey I think it is important, it's part of a package, I don't want someone to whisper filth at me in a high pitched drone...

Dinner, well it's so warm, probably strappy sun dress as opposed to usual band t shirt and Ill- fitting loose trousers.

But in all the ways that count, MLM you are not actually married - and why should you be relying on a piece of paper from a judge to tell you how to live your life?

I am considerably slightly older than you, and I regret all the things I didn't do. It's all about finding a balance between being respectable Mummy & irresistible sex goddess.

"I don't want someone to whisper filth at me in a high pitched drone..." Yes, quite!

Strappy sun dress - perfect!
