Honey traps and stunning women aplenty - dating thread 20!

20!!!!!!

Bloody hell :)

Just got an excited text saying he will be half an hour early. eeeeeeeeeeeeee! :o

Good job I got organised early on

Good luck with your date snape!

Sponge I think you have a good chilled attitude there, if a little negative but I understand given the shite you've had. Don't write it off, might be a slow burner. A friend of mine on my fb (with initial JB) has just married a chap she's been with a year having met on OKC, he is lovely but she fretted a lot over their early dates, texts and contact etc, it took them a while to get going.

Not saying you're going to get married of course but just - you really never know what might happen. Try and keep an open mind!

Right. Better go and apply my face.

I'm all excited like the early dates again... I think since this is the first time we are seeing each other since the big chats and sorting things out etc.

zany sorry, forgot to say, congratulations before.

sponge think positively.

Time at least you know he's an idiot before wasting any time on him.

My thoughts exactly Snape. I can't believe some men actually believe the crap they come out with, I really can't.

Chaotic very brave

i am an evil genius!

new plan is to dangle gorgeous Mr Staines in front of PM and see if anything happens (I know this is evil, but Mr Staines is fully aware of context...)

True, Chaotic, very true.

Lubey have fun!!

Oh yes! I forgot that Mr Staines is in on it! Even better!! You can really go town on PM with this, invite Mr Staines to the gym and then for dinner with PM, how very fantastic!

What time are you meeting? And don't forget to post your "I'm alive" message by 11pm. I will wait up for you.

half six. I need to go and steal make up soon.

Not sure if I have thought far enough ahead of Mr Staines clearly falling head over heels in LOVE with me and him and PM having a Bridget Jones style fist fight...

will do!

:)

Oh, I can picture the scene as I type. How fab!!

If they do get in a Bridget Jones style fight then make sure they're near a fountain

Chaotic While you are here please may I ask a quick question about the work programme?? Do they allow you to do courses? I'm thinking of a change of direction, into some sort of care work, preferably with people with learning disabilities or dementia or something similar. I saw a job advertised recently but it required an NVQ in Health and Social Care, I'm just wondering if I would be allowed to do that on the work programme. I tried asking at the jobcentre today but they haven't a clue. Thanks in advance.

Well I've done a couple of courses that Ingenus themselves have arranged for their 'clients' (best word I can think of atm) but they were short 2 day ones. I think it would probably depend on the number of hours the course was. I do know that when claiming JSA you can only do courses that are less than 16 hours per week.

Sorry, I can't give you a definitive answer but I'm surprised that the job centre didn't inform you of their own rules. I'm assuming here you're claiming JSA.

Yes, I'm claiming JSA. The jobcentre are useless. You have given me more information than they have. When I asked today I was told they know nothing about the work programme, that it's completely separate from them. I suggested it might be a good idea for them to get to know about it, so that claimants had at least some idea of where they are being passed to

Snape I am imagining PM as the Hugh Grant though (doing that girly slapping) and Mrs S as the dashing Darcy ... I've just got the feeling you are going to like him!!!

Mr S - Doh!!!

Snape good luck :) but you won't need it because he will be lovely and he will like you just as you are.

Mr Overall has spent today texting me filth, so I think it's fairly clear the extent of his interest in me, and once that has been satisfied I prob won't see him again. Which isn't a big deal but I'm just being realistic about it!

Totally agree with you about the job centre. There were times when I suspect that they have no idea what they're talking about.

Just had a question on OKC. 'Do you think men should be head of the household?'

My answer a definite no with his answer also being no, I marked it as mandatory

I love OKC questions. I love the idea that it's perfectly acceptable to disclose your predilections for sodomy and bondage to a PERFECT STRANGER on the basis that you've answered the same questions.

I got through about 25 questions before remembering to tick the make question private box

One actually works for a couple of hours and the thread takes off.

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

Without the tights! Oh, sorry, stockings.

Time: if you want to do care work Id say get onto www.nhsjobs.com and have a look on there. Also phone the recruitment part of your local hospitals and ask them when they are having a general recuitment day/phone a department you are vaguely interested in (surgery, medicine, older person) and ask to speak directly to the matron. Sometimes starting with unpaid work gets your face seen and you can make inroads that way.
The other one is to look on line for local care agencies and approach them directly.

Ive got someone who seems fairly normal conversing with me on POF. I am so guarded I am waiting for the cock pic, the "lets have some fun hun" or the disappearing act.
Time: are you still with your profile set to IE?

Sponge: why dont you think there will be a third date?

Snape

This whole Mr Staines and honey trap thing, surely it must have been done on film.
It would make a great script.

Where you use Mr Staines to make PM jealous, then he realises that you are the love of his life and proposes, but you end up realising that you are actually in love with Mr Staines, when you see his face instead of PM's when you are about to say yes, then leave PM at the altar and run in bridal dress to Mr Staines, kissing him passionately against the sunset in the end.

Leaving PM sitting alone at the altar wondering where he went wrong.

I definitely want to be invited to THAT wedding.

I would look good in a bridesmaids dress i didn't get married in a dress and I don't plan on re marrying, I am too flighty and too much of a free spirit.

I have answered that question in exactly the same way Chaotic

What question private box? Oops!
