Yogagirl17 · 22/08/2012 23:24

Worley I didn't think I was looking for something super serious either and then really fell for him.

Bit of a dilemma now though and need some help!!!

Had a very brief stint on POF a few days ago in an attempt to cheer myself up. Started talking to quite a nice, interesting guy, he asked if I wanted to meet for a drink and after a bit of thought I told him sorry but I wasn't ready for this just now. He gave me his actual email address and said he understood but if I wanted to get in touch he'd still like to meet me. I then deleted my POF account.

Meanwhile, my GS subscription runs out soon so I went back on it tonight just to have a kind of last look/clear out because I'm not planning on renewing it right now. Suddenly realised the guy I was talking to on POF was someone I had previously "liked" on GS!! Didn't put 2+2 together because I haven't been on GS for ages (because I was seeing the other guy who it's now over with...is this making sense so far?).

So now, part of me is thinking, hmmm, maybe this is a sign you should meet him after all. Other part says no, I'm not ready, going to take me a while to get over the last one & I need to sort myself out first (plus I don't like his taste in music....and he doesn't have kids)

What should I do? Confused

Yogagirl17 · 22/08/2012 23:25

Ooh, snape that's great!!

snapespeare · 23/08/2012 00:11

Right. Update. :-)

He is gorgeous really funny and super intelligent, had a nice stroll, then a beer, I tucked my hand in his arm as we left the pub. Discussed PM a bit, which felt a bit weird, but ok. Walked down towards the millennium wheel, stood underneath the wheel for a bit looking up and then I kind of kissed him. Blush. Verrrrry romantic, all the trees with little lights in them. We walked on a bit, stopped for more kissing. Walked a but. More kissing...

He walked me to the station... More kissing and then he said, 'oh! Look at you! You're beautiful!' and then I got my train, and now I'm home. :-). No mention of a second date. (want a second date! Even though we'd agreed that was the second date to dispell any awkwardness about it beinthe first date...but if the next one is the time travelly 1st date, I think that might mean I'm a bit of a slapper because I absolutely want to fuck him ragged.

Evil PM plan in disarray. Oops.

TimeForMeAndDD · 23/08/2012 00:25

Oh, you are so fickle! Grin

Sounds ever so romantic though Smile

snapespeare · 23/08/2012 00:28

Was most romantic first date ever. Even the talk of fisting was magical. Wink. Blush

hatesponge · 23/08/2012 00:45

Ah Snape Grin I hope there is a timetravelly first date. Or second. You have to see him again, it all sounds too perfect not to!

ChaoticismyLife · 23/08/2012 00:45

I'm beginning to wonder who is getting trapped by this honey trap Grin

snapespeare · 23/08/2012 00:53

He texted me that he was home, I'm lovely & we'll talk tomorrow. Am suspecting curse of the 2nd date, however that was allegedly the 2nd date, so it will be curse of the first date.... I need a spreadsheet!

hatesponge · 23/08/2012 00:57

It's only me that has the 1st date curse! apparently continuing as nothing from Mr Overalls since late afternoon, so he's clearly not that interested

I have faith you will see Mr S again :)

snapespeare · 23/08/2012 01:02

I need a nicer name. Mr Staines is a bit 'eww'. Henceforth, 'the professor' (because he used to be a uni lecturer & it's what ace called sylvester McCoy in doctor who.)

TimeForMeAndDD · 23/08/2012 01:23

We could call him MrDecoy perhaps? Cos he is a decoy and it goes with McCoy.

Ignore me if you like. I'm only posting at this time because I can't sleep for some reason. My brain is sleepy though.

watchoutforthatsnail · 23/08/2012 06:07

Do you see the time I'm posting at?? Crazy
:)
Wanted to check snapes update.
And so bloody glad I did!!!!!!!!
Sounds wonderful, hope you are walking on air today. And that you do see him again.
And it is absolutely the most marvelous thing in the world when someone calls you beautiful, isn't it. Mrl is always complementing me, not something I've really had before,is amazing:)
So, enjoy it.

Wow moving fast

snape I knew you would like him Wink always happens when you are not looking! Or in your case honey trapping!

Lueji · 23/08/2012 09:08

How long have you been separated from your ex?

About a year and a half, but it's more about keeping DS sane (ex often interrogates DS about me) and not introducing more mess into parental responsibility and divorce case.
Plus, if he went mental, it wouldn't be fair on Mr Kippling either.
Plus, it is still early days. If we do get into a proper long term stable relationship, then it will have to be out. Until then, there's no point in raising the stress levels.

BTW, it was good, but I'm very sleepy, as we had to wake up very early for his work.
I really enjoyed watching a grown up film together on the sofa.

snapespeare · 23/08/2012 09:15

glares at phone just remembered lovely bit from last night, he was really funny and I laugh with everything when I laugh, he remarked that it was more 'usual' for women to laugh daintily behind a hand (he was joking, he's a feminist..) I replied, 'I tried that on the first date, but you didn't fall for it...' it was really nice, we just got on immediately. glares at phone

Leuji this is lovely :-) totally agree about a bit of 'sneaking around' at this point. (i know it isnt 'sneaking around' just can't think of a better term)

Lueji · 23/08/2012 09:15

Evil PM plan in disarray. Oops.

Grin

Not predictable at all, no way. Wink

Fingers crossed for you. PM does seem too complicated.

hatesponge · 23/08/2012 09:21

My phone remains annoyingly free of new texts. Really don't think any second date will be happening with Mr Overalls. How irritatingly predictable!

Lueji · 23/08/2012 09:27

Darn.
I have his smell on me.
Must have been all the kissing on the bus stop. Teenager alert!

Sponge wasn't he travelling today?

snapespeare · 23/08/2012 09:32

Maybe I was subconciously looking for a way to extricate myself from an extremely frustrating non-relationship relationship.

glares at phone. again.

watchoutforthatsnail · 23/08/2012 09:34

:) Snape. You are all floaty today huh.
Same advice as sponge yesterday. It's realky early, don't panic yet.
( I laugh with everything too, and quite often snort. It's terribly dainty and girly....)
He sounds fab. Truely.

Leuij, it wouldn't Have any bearing on parental responsibility nor the divorce. You are allowed a life you know, you don't Have to live like a nun post marriage break up.

Sponge, if he's on holiday id expect far less, certainly not daily contact. It's not a relationship Yet,,It's just one date. Give him space, reply if he does text, but dobt have any expectations while he is away.

OP posts:
hatesponge · 23/08/2012 09:38

He's not away til tonight, and he hasn't text me since yesterday afternoon Hmm I'm doubtful I will hear from him again at all, and even more so that any second date will happen.
