snape did you do them?? !! they are amazingly beautiful !!

[TimeForMeAndDD]

Absolutely beautiful Snape. Stunning.

[Movingforward123]

snape If pm doesn't fall in love with you after seeing this book. There is something wrong with him! I think I am slightly in love with you if someone actually made something like that for me I would be so overwhelmed!!

[snapespeare]

Actually, at the moment I suspect he might be a tiny bit in love with me just now, but too stupid scared to do anything about it.

worley. Keep up! yes, those are mine.

Thank you for comments, I do really appreciate it.

moving I have never had first-time-un-drunken sex except with the prof. I think it generally takes a bit of getting used to someone else and while booze is a great uninhibitor (not sure that's actually a word...) it can make things a little clumsy and delayed. I'm glad he's contacted you, but do just text him on-the-spot occasionally, all this 'rules' bollocks is bollocks. :)

[snapespeare]

Oh, the 'life's a little weird' one is the sunset from my roof terrace. Just to totally undoing the tricky NLP aspects of my campaign.....

[ChaoticismyLife]

snape brilliant again :)

Btw can someone link me to the group watch mentioned?

I might do a little investigation and get the ruler out to see what I'm not missing

[Worley]

arh..... is this the notebook!!!
I've missed a week of mn and am so behind the times!!!
snape do you do this professionally ? they are so beautiful

[TimeForMeAndDD]

If you really want to see what you are missing Chaotic, set a POF profile to intimate encounter. I have a special folder

[StrictlyComeDancingDiva]

I have to de-lurk to say snape so stunning, he would be crazy not to be blown away by the notebook! I'm 4 weeks on from getting it together with a PM, and it's amazing, I so hope it happens for you!

[Worley]

time.. when I was set to IE on POF I never got one single picture :( it must be me...

[TimeForMeAndDD]

OMG Worley, I got loads. I never knew they came in so many different shapes and sizes! It made a dreary Sunday afternoon pass quickly.

[snapespeare]

This is the 'notebook-of-lurve!' (NoL) or 'notebook-of-doooom!') depending on how desperately undecided I am at the time...

The night before it all changes, I will do you all a chronological page-by-page, close photo, cropped, so you can be disappointed for me when it goes tits-up revel in its majesty. :)

No, not professionally. I've always drawn, untrained, it's just something I do.

Previously I've gifted him small framed paintings for birthdays etc (the house from 'up!' and an illustration from 'the shipping forecast' that he quoted at me in an email, 'it may happen that a crab is caught with the shadow of a hand on its back, and that the wind be imprisoned in a bit of knotted string. And it may be that love sometimes occurs without pain or misery.' You would have thought he might have twigged by now spectacularly dense man ). I do have a small self employed side line doing tattoo flash, but starving artist/garret doesn't buy shoes for small folk....

[Movingforward123]

snape I also have not have any first time sex sober I think I need the alcohol to get my wobbly bits out!

I think I shouldn't drink much with him in future as he did say in the Morning oh you has a lot to drink last night! And I dot want him to think I'm stupid

I need some more sex ASAP ! I might let him know this!!

[ChaoticismyLife]

Time I could do a study. Get them to send me pics and get my ruler out...some of them might even measure oooh...all of 10mm Then there's shape, maybe I could get pics of the men and stick them up somewhere so people know what they're getting...or not evil

[Yogagirlscaredofpeas]

Snape - just breathtaking, really.

Moving - I think unless the sex was really bad or there was something particularly off putting I wldnt worry about it. Nerves & alcohol all play a part and can take a while to really let yourself let go with someone. Sexual chemistry between mr60 & I was amazing but the first time we actually did it it was a bit . It got better!

[snapespeare]

:). That's the trouble, isn't it... You don't have any sex for a bit, you forget about it, your body acclimatises, you live the live of a nun. Then you have sex and its all SEX! Sex SexSexSexSexSEXSEXSEXSEX SEX!!!!!!!!!

Stupid hormones.

[TimeForMeAndDD]

I've not had sex for ages It's going to be really scary the first time some comes my way...

[FateLovesTheFearless]

Moving - would agree, the first time is always a bit hit or miss. Definitely need a rerun to be sure.

[FateLovesTheFearless]

Snape - your notebook is just brilliant. I especially love the silver eye page, stunning!

[ChaoticismyLife]

I haven't had sex in ages either

[Movingforward123]

Well it hasn't been that long since I had sex, but I havnt had enough sex atall since I have been single and need I catch up!! It's like Pringles once you pop you just don't stop

[goodthinking99]

Long time lurker...short time internet dater (waster?!) feeling a bit jaded and need you lovely people to give me a pep talk (if you don't mind)...my profile 45, 18 months single, 1 child, on matchaffinity. Lots of nice chats and profiles & have been trying to apply Onlinedatingqueen's rules.

Met one guy I liked but he was just out of long marriage so bailed on the second date but understandable...back on again get messaging a flirt but no meet type ...back on again strike up online/texts with nice guy all seems promising, date arranged...text two hours before saying really sorry have to work at last minute.

Now I'll give anyone the benefit of the doubt (once!) so say what a pain for you, shall we rearrange? Get lovely message saying really sorry again, yes let's do that, give me another chance. Ok, I say...and then never hear from him again ...Now what is that all about, eh?

I know that they don't owe me anything, and vice versa, and I'll just shrug and move on...but I just don't get it...Why waste all that time if you've no intention of meeting someone, I just can't get my head around what's in it for them?

Am I missing something? Any words from the wise?

From the sofa, slanket on order...

[TimeForMeAndDD]

Don't be greedy Moving! I haven't had sex At All while I've been single!! And hadn't had it for a good while before I became single.

[snapespeare]

Ladies, I did two and a half years! (I know some of you will have gone well-longer) frankly.....

....I met PM about 6 weeks after the end of a relationship. I've tried. I've been out with men, there hasn't been a spark.... I kinda compare them to him. In January I went on 4 dates with a chap of off OKC, I thought, he'll do. [Hmm] I shagged him on the 4th date, never heard from him again, he kept his eyes shut the whole time (me and the prof joke about this, he thinks he was terrified). I left his house and cried my eyes out, PM had been texting me throughout, he didn't know, we were going for beers that night... I swaggered into the pub, we hugged, he said 'oh! My! GOD! You've just had sex! Haven't you?!

I'm not sure what I'm trying to say, just that, if it feels right, it feels right.

[snapespeare]

goodthinking. Hello!

People do Internet dating for a huge variety of reasons... They don't meet people they might date at work, they like the attention, but won't really do anything about it, they're absolutely fucking hideous, they're complicated, they travel a lot for work and can't meet anyone in'real-life'.... They just don't meet anyone in real life. It's wonderful a nd strange and we can't second-guess why anyone is there. There are lovely, genuine people. I have met absolute stars who just weren't for me... I think what I am saying is... 'Plenty-of-fuckmuppets' someone might filter through, they might not. You might be on ten self service till at sainsburys and the guy next to you will be a prince, your hands will touch, you'll swap numbers... OD is another way, it isn't the only way.
