Oh you are an idiot watch, but a lovely one. :) Have you been responding? What's going on there? Does he know about Mr -not-quite-so-lovely?

watchoutforthatsnail · 27/08/2012 20:17

Leuiji, Think.you have jumped to some.conclusions there, he works full time!!!!
In a good Job...

Yes, have been responding. Like a fool.
Will see him, he's so close I cant.not. he has said It's our time now, one of the issues is solved. He knows I am seeing someone, was worried it was serious.
Hes just texting, being nice, asked Lots to see me, but told me no pressure, we just need to talk face to face. He keeps trying to be romantic, but I'm cutting that dead for the momment..

watch take care. He might say no pressure now but that doesn't mean he won't.

watchoutforthatsnail · 27/08/2012 20:31

He does mean it.
I Think he was scared I had gone.forever.

Ups, sorry, but then the living at mum's and general sponging off is even worse.

Mellower · 27/08/2012 20:56

Any other good sites apart from POF?

I am finding my locals boring! Grin

MyLittleMiracles · 27/08/2012 20:57

WATCH In the nicest possible way, please please do not get blinded by him, be cafeful, dont get reeled in by him. I know you are far from stupid but i dont doubt Mr Not So Lovely has hurt you and you are a bit vunerable.
I am saying this because I CARE. Please please be careful.

Mellower · 27/08/2012 20:59

Oh cripes just reading back, I don't know if I want to anymore, so many emotions/rules involved.

MyLittleMiracles · 27/08/2012 20:59

Hello mellower There is POF, OKcupid or OASIS, i had most luck on oasis personally

Mellower · 27/08/2012 21:01
Grin

Yes have "met" a few on POF but no real spark yet well, one but he wanted a 2 weekly spark, pfft! Yeah sure I'l be used like a slapper. Hmm May try OKcupid tomorrow! thank you!

watchoutforthatsnail · 27/08/2012 21:02

Ive been chatting to ykw for a few weeks. Had agreed to meet him before any dumping of mrl ( wrongly, I know, but we need to talk in.person..)
Mrl hasnt hurt me, we haveht talked feelings at all. Im more concerned with hurting him tbh.

I know ywk better than I.kmow myself. I.know what his faults are. I also know he's moving 100's miles to be nearer to me, despite me not taking to him for months.

snapespeare · 27/08/2012 21:10

sigh! ay ykw.

watch love, we've got bags of lovely new folk. Do you think you could give us a paragraph summary on ykw? A new perspective might be welcome... :)

MyLittleMiracles · 27/08/2012 21:15

watch well just be careful is all, cos we all care about you, its like over the last few months i have gotten to know you all on this thread and its like your friends almost.

ChaoticismyLife · 27/08/2012 21:15

watch we're concerned because we care and don't want to see you getting hurt :)

watchoutforthatsnail · 27/08/2012 21:19

A summary? LOL
In ywks words ' star crossed lovers'
But he's an overly romantic fool..
In my words, 3 years of hurt people being too hurt to do anything. But not being able to Let go and hurting each other more in the process.. I cant comitt, he lies. Hes vair sucessful and people worship him, I tell him hes a Pratt. Hes awkward. Im difficult..most beautiful man I ever did see and his mind sets me on fire....

Like I said, agreed to meet before this weekend... We have Been texting a lot, Mrl, unperceptive as he is, even asked who was texting so much.

OP posts:
watchoutforthatsnail · 27/08/2012 21:20

Its just to say hi, it might be to say bye at the same time.
It's just so much has happened, we havent seen each other for ages. Some things need to be said, and said face to face with a drop of rum and a few tears I should expect.

Llareggub · 27/08/2012 22:15

Oh do be careful, watch. Read anuvvamuvva's 10 rules earlier, they are rather insightful.

My date didn't go as planned. I had a call from him while I was at the gym (which I ignored, natch) and it turned out he has has a sickness bug and wanted to warn me. I played it cool and told him that we should postpone. He immediately said that he wanted to rearrange for another day so we are on for Wednesday. We've been texting all night though.

I've been messaging a nice chap on OKC and we are arranging a date too. They are like buses, aren't they!

I have studiously ignored my other bloke who told me he was applying for a job in China. He posted birthday wishes on my FB and instead of feeling grateful like I might have done before anuvvamuvva's 10 point plan I feel like I deserve so much more than that! I might even defriend him. Hurumph.

watchoutforthatsnail · 27/08/2012 22:25

Yeah. I'm not chasing him, hadn't spoken to him.for months. Had ignored his attempts at contact. Havent seen him for over a year.

In no way am I trying to get him.

This, knowing him is partly my allure. But honestly, I was done, hadn't thought of him, couldn't have cared less.

And then, while I'm not talking to him, he moves 4 hours closer to me. To Give us a chance, not knowing if I wouid even speak to him again.

snapespeare · 27/08/2012 22:44

This is the quickest thread ever. Doubt it will last the week. :)

Oh watch, I'd offer a [wetshark] but I fear it will be ineffectual.

snapespeare · 27/08/2012 22:50

SODDING PM has updated his OKC with a fabulous reference to my favourite poem. I'm poxy-well resmitten and MUST NOT sneak on his OKc again as it does me no good whatsoever.

Yogagirl17 · 27/08/2012 22:59

snape - maybe it's some kind of reverse honeytrap for you!

Yogagirl17 · 27/08/2012 23:04

had a wee peak at OKC but can't decide whether to put anything in my profile or not...

MirandaWest · 27/08/2012 23:04

This is indeed fastest moving thread,

Am sorry to hear about how th weekend went watch and hope you find the right way to finish with Mr L. I hadn't seen the summary of ykw before so dont really know what the best thing to do might be but meeting could well help one way or another.

Snape you need to stop sneaking in PMs OK Cupid. Go on your date with the Prof first Grin

I am in my XPILs house. Staying here as DC will be staying here a few days and it would have been too long to drive from where we had been staying via here and back home all in one day. Is a bit weird though. Am actually in XHs old room. Could do with a text from Mr Nice but I think his friend has gone round there tonight and anyway I will see him tomorrow....
