yoga it's becasue i went o see 'Brave' yesterday (damn you PIxar!) so I'm an emotional wreck and anything will bring a tear to my eye. Need to tough it up for date. Wink

had really important work thing this afternoon pre-date, now cancelled, so am sat here all work-wear Hmm with no make up Hmm and CBA to go home and back into town again (He seems lovely, but not worth an hour and a half round trip!) shall pop to boots to sneak around make up/perfume counters about an hour before date!

Ahh thanks Snape. Looking back my hormones were all over the place at first which didn't help things between us. My DS has taken the news badly which hasn't helped but he seems to be coming round. I knew he would feel that way but realised that wasn't a big enough reason not to have any more children as I am hoping he will feel different once the baby is here. My DD is really pleased.
Mr Yacht has been over the moon and has been really supportive. Feeling knackered and huge already.

Love the thread title and Lueji's post Grin

"willing to get to know you better"

How bloody arrogant Hmm He should be hoping that you want to get to know him better.

Hi Charlotte :)

zany sorry it hasn't been a smooth ride for you. Hope things do get better all round.

MyLittleMiracles · 22/08/2012 13:37

zany So good to hear from you. And congratulations

Step parenting can't be easy.

I made my decision and am now just dating one guy. Who is spending a fair amount of time together. Life is good. And I am getting introduced to friends as his girl. Grin

snapespeare · 22/08/2012 13:47

bollocks Mr Staines is now same percentage match as PM.

god help him if he doesn't have any teeth!

zany wow many congrats!

Mr Overalls has now suggested a second date when he gets back from hols. He's off for a week from tomorrow. And when he gets back I'll be away. So when or if it will happen is anyone's guess...

zanywany · 22/08/2012 14:18

Good news that he has suggested a second date though sponge

hatesponge · 22/08/2012 14:20

maybe, but I've had them suggested, and indeed arranged, in the past & they've never happened. So I'm not counting my chickens just yet!

Lueji · 22/08/2012 14:28

zany, congratulations. :)

Sponge, he will be back and you'll have that date. Just chill, but also don't be afraid of letting him know that you like him.
Whatever happens, you had a good time.

MyLittleMiracles · 22/08/2012 14:40

sponge sometimes its nice to just go with the flow. I know I am which makes a nice change. Just sitting chilling listening to music. Peacefully.

snapespeare · 22/08/2012 14:42

sponge well pleased for you!

just bumped into a colleague who remarked how well I am looking. explained this away with weight-loss and gym attendance, but between you and me it's all the OKC attention, hot-date tonight and the text I just got from Mr Staines that I am a 'fascinating and complex woman' and that he can't wait to meet me. Take that PM, you fool!

have teeth! have teeth! have teeth! have teeth!

TimeForMeAndDD · 22/08/2012 14:57

Hi everyone Smile marking place.

Hi Zany and many congratulations!! Smile

Watch I do hope your DD isn't looking for the chief bridesmaid/maid of honour position?? She does know that position has already been taken doesn't she? As in gone. Allocated!

Snape Enjoy your date. Smile Are you going to share Mr Staines profile or what?? And I do hope he has teeth, nice teeth.

Sponge Brilliant! Smile

snapespeare · 22/08/2012 15:04

not publically, but i'll PM you. :-)

yes watch DD is relegated to flower-girl I'm afraid.

I like this idea for bridesmaids dresses, tonally colour co-ordinated, different styles to suit body type... just saying... Hmm

TimeForMeAndDD · 22/08/2012 15:08

Ooh, yes please!! Smile

And I think DD will look absolutely stunning as a flower girl watch but she better not have a nicer dress than me

TimeForMeAndDD · 22/08/2012 15:09

I bag the white frock Snape Grin

snapespeare · 22/08/2012 15:10

love this blog

mercury7 · 22/08/2012 15:22

Snape, thanks for the blog link, it does look very good..will check it properly when i get chance :)

snapespeare · 22/08/2012 15:24

it's refreshing that it's not just 'us' that gets the stupid pervy messages :)

TimeForMeAndDD · 22/08/2012 15:26

Mmm, that looks interesting, will save that read for later.

hatesponge · 22/08/2012 15:28

don't get too excited about second date everyone :)

firstly, it might not even happen. and secondly it's really not going to be any great romance, if the texts we have exchanged today are anything to go by. If there is a 2nd date I doubt there will be a 3rd!

TimeForMeAndDD · 22/08/2012 15:44

I see you are working hard on the positivity Sponge Wink

TimeForMeAndDD · 22/08/2012 15:57

I've just been told I have issues because I won't send a pic showing my figure, and I won't tell the twat what dress size I am. Hmm

snapespeare · 22/08/2012 15:58

well no, he has issues.... Hmm

ChaoticismyLife · 22/08/2012 15:59

In order to have a nosy at snape's profile, I've rejoined OKC which I suspect was part of snape's evil genius plan Hmm

My profile is up and I've posted some pics (including one of me with no make up Shock ) which will ensure that...ahem...potential matches are scared away before they even think of contacting me Grin
