do it - anything to distract you from mr60.

is there any one else decent about? have you had a good search recently?

talking books with pirate, we both text at the same time, how nice it is to read, snuggled up with somone, and then we both lol'ed and said would like to do that soon. hes made some nice statements this afternoon, so i kind of think we are heading into the exclusive/ in a relationship catergory. which is totally nuts and probably racing way ahead ( and thats what i would tell anyone) but it kind of feels right. i really like him.... :)

Aha free winks sponge, I see! I don't really get why all these men bother joining then, just to wink over and over at the same women, with no way of speaking or even meeeting them. A bunch of winkers!

Have fun Western!

fayster · 14/10/2012 20:07

Watch, that's lovely. So what if it's racing ahead if it feels right and you like him? Just keep your wits about you if you have any doubts at all.

watchoutforthatsnail · 14/10/2012 20:09

after the puppy i will be keeping a super watchful eye out :)

i dont know, its just weird. Even he said on friday, its just nuts how well we get on, and how we have totally so much in common. Feels like we have known each other ages, but we have only had 3 dates.

LOL @ 'A bunch of winker'!

watch, that sounds so lovely. And yes, I have been looking, on GS & OKC (even been on a few dates if you recall) but just no one that's doing anything for me. Meh.

snapespeare · 14/10/2012 20:26

and in a curious circularity, met PM three years ago today :)

watchoutforthatsnail · 14/10/2012 20:28

thats a bit of a fuck isnt it.
:(

it is a crap situation to be in, i feel for you. i was stuck in something similar for AGES...

watchoutforthatsnail · 14/10/2012 20:31

oh, i love the first two, esp the socks.

i kind of dont care about the sex right now. werid huh.

OP posts:
snapespeare · 14/10/2012 20:35

Trust me, you'll care about the sex if he's lousy. :). You'll sleep together when the time is right and I do appreciate your caution, but don't go all swoony and then end up with completely mismatched libidos. :)

watchoutforthatsnail · 14/10/2012 20:39

haha, that is probably right!!!

he kisses most excellently though.
but that is wise,still, nice to know we are both thinking the same and wanting to head in that direction...

Oh wow snape that is a beautiful present, I hope he's worthy of it

snapespeare · 14/10/2012 21:05

Nah, he's an idiot. But he's my beautiful, annoying, exasperating, wonderful idiot Grin.

I'll post them all in order, the night before I wrap it up for him, hopefully a new thread by then...

Yogagirl17 · 14/10/2012 21:06

Snape - stunning & awe inspiring as always

hatesponge · 14/10/2012 22:21

snape thats just amazing.

Honestly if PM doesnt like it, I will track him down and slap him. He would have to be blind and stupid not to be bowled over by it.

watch I can see where Snapes coming from re the sex thing. I've waited with 2 Exs, with completely different outcomes - first one the sex was appalling. Honestly the worst sex I have ever had. It was awful cos I did like him, but sex-wise we were utterly incompatible. However the other Ex it was the best sex ever, all the more so because we were so at ease with each other because we'd waited so long.

On balance because the bad outcome was SO bad, I'd say don't go too swoony UNTIL you've slept with him. After that you can swoon as much as you want Grin

I foresee no chance of me ever swooning over anyone certainly not for a long time - on my night out last night looking rather fab not one man spoke to me...only girls! Hmm However I still haven't text ScaredofPeas which is something!

snapespeare · 14/10/2012 22:30

sponge. If he doesn't 'get' it by which I mean fall at my feet whilst losing the majority of his clothing you have my permission to track him down and slap him. It won't be difficult. I'll give you his address. Grin

OhWesternWind · 14/10/2012 22:57

Ohhhhh lovely lovely date with the optician. I think we are now "seeing each other" rather than online dating. So very glad I gave him another chance. Sat in his car outside by house snogging with the babysitter twitching the curtains. Wish the logistics were easier, lots of children between us but never mind. He is really nice. Very northern sense of humour etc just like me, we get on so well and I just want to jump the bugger. Need a better name for him than the optician, which isn't at all sexy or alluring! Seeing him again in the week but he has his mum staying which means no sex again as I think it's too soon for him to come here in case the children come in. Oh well. Feeling very happy.

snapespeare · 14/10/2012 22:58

western. That's lovely. :)

OhWesternWind · 14/10/2012 23:02

Snape Here comes your man!

Love the Pixies!

MadameOvary · 15/10/2012 02:29

Snape I luffs it. Esp the black dog.

Watch yeah, much as i hate to admit it, its kind of necessary to sleep with them first. I haven't even snogged Science Boy yet and am hoping he's a good kisser.
But i also know what you mean about not being bothered about the sex. Having had plenty of "movie sex" in my time with the whole spectrum from emotional inadequates to downright abusive, and all levels from crap sex upwards, I'll settle for sweet and loving and emotionally "connected" over furniture-breaking any day.
Western ooooh! Thats fab. I dont have a sexy name for mine either. Grin
Sponge so glad youre sounding strong and resolute, and staying with us!

KirstyWirsty · 15/10/2012 07:44

Morning all ..

Was scraping my car this morning and spotted something under my windscreen. It is a ripped envelope with a mobile number with a x under it. No name or anything else.. Would you make contact??

MadameOvary · 15/10/2012 08:10

Kirsty how intriguing! Have you been practicing cosmic ordering? I would call the number but withhold mine.

EiePie · 15/10/2012 08:21

Kirsty Not knowing would drive me mad! I agree with MadameO phone the number but withhold your number. How exciting!

Yogagirl17 · 15/10/2012 08:22

Ooh Kirsty, do you have any single, sexy neighbours?

So replied to NewYork boy last night (just a 'how was your weekend') and turns out he has two sons - one has the same name as my DS and the other is the same name as one of Mr60s DS. So what is the universe trying to tell me now?! Confused

ParsleyTheLioness · 15/10/2012 08:37

Hi all...feel I have missed a bit here. Someone tell me about ScaredofPeas please! Western that is good, I am a Northern Bird too, but ex pat now. Interesting you think there is a Northern humour. Like dry, Corrie style or different? So, one man has dissapeared having seen my pic, another one doesn't want to follow it up cos I Iz a Big Bird (though that is on my profile, and was there before he Favourited me Confused he claims he is an accountant, so you would think he would have read that first...
sounds like other peeps are doing ok? Yoga interesting about NYork man, do you think you are being led to 'go for it'?
