Red shoes, charming lesbians and pirates with taste...Dating Thread 24

[ChaoticismyLife]

It's the best I could come up with

As you were...

Snape, will he be totally clear of the intentions of the notebook? What if he sees it for its profound beauty and thought rather than a declaration of your love and an ultimatum for yourself. I'm only saying this coz I don't always get the meaning of things. But only you know PM.

Oh he won't get it at all. .

Because he is SPECTACULARLY DENSE! (Sigh)

I don't want to be waiting another 4 years to meet anyone I really don't. Honestly, who would?

MadameO are you on Watch's FB? I am on there (AO), I can't claim to be any kind of bombshell though but you are welcome to add me! It's a v v kind offer re GSM by the way, thank you, I will have a look and PM you if I spot anyone, if thats ok. I did have a GSM profile I forgot about never got any views or messages, might have to revive/revamp it)

Snape I am almost tempted re the TV thing. Whilst it would I am sure be a complete carcrash, am thinking they might cap my teeth which is something I've wanted for years

Totally understand the trepidation of the notebook. I do think though what will be, will be. However you approach it the outcome will be the same, and I am still sure it will be good. But I know also you have to present (ha) it in the way you feel most comfortable. I'd give it to him and run away but then I'm a coward!

god, you do realise we are all going to be a wreck monday...

sponge. Do it. Nothing ventured! (Ignores own advice, burns notebook)

sponge - you should do it. I would. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain, including new teeth!!
:)

Plus I will whip you all into a frenzy with a full chronological notebook linking.

Sorry MN.

you are a tease!

Shuuush. You love it.

oh - apply :)
it doesnt mean you have to do it, but would be interesting to see what its about. An application isnt a committment...

Snape - it is an incredibly brave thing to do and that counts for a lot! I'm just wondering if you've thought of what you will do if you don't get either response? I mean, you seem prepared for declarations of love or doom & gloom. But what if he just says, 'thanks, it's lovely' and carries on as if nothing has changed? What then? (Sorry, but have to ask). Wish we could all hold your hand for it.

Sponge - I don't know if this is hopeful or depressing but I have a very good friend who's been divorced for over 7 years now. She dated a few disasterous men right at the beginning but has been single for a looooonnggg time now. She is smart and creative and attractive and incredibly funny but just gave up on the dating thing for a long time. And now suddenly, after all that time, she's met someone lovely and nice and normal and who really likes her and her kids and her noisy cat... The funny thing is she came across this guy on a dating site a couple of years ago, they exchanged a few messages but never met. And yet now, things couldn't be going better. For me, it just gives me hope that these things will only happen with the both people are ready for the right thing at the right time.

Oh my, the middle road easy option? No, I hadn't thought of that. I think I'd take the equally easy option of always being a it too busy to see him, feeling a bit under the weather etc... If he wants avoidance, I can do that...and it's slightly more/less mature than throwing it at him and yelling 'WHHHHY CAN'T YOU *SEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!'

That said, if he does that, I'll just come on here and ask you all what to do, because frankly, fuck knows.

its all about right person, right time.
and a bit of luck.

....because you are all holding my hand and thank you.

Sorry snape, it just occurred to me that that was a possibility.

So I told NYboy that I'd just like to be friends and he's sent me a very (very!) long reply saying he likes my smile, I make him smile, he'd still like to get to know me better...what now?

block? delete?never reply?

the middle of the road is the worst case thing i think. Because then its still sort of not resolved.

Yeah. Block, delete, never reply. There's gonna be a shit-load of hand holding going on there. But that was the option for rejection as well, wasn't it, so the likely outcome is 2/3rds in favour of never seeing him again. Rats arse.

no.i think from his behaviour its about 80/20 in your favour actually.

I need to hear that, it helps the wobble. :)

Sponge. Don't get your teeth done on the telly. I read about a woman who had veneers done and she was in agony 6 months later and no one to turn to. They rush that kind of thing on the telly. Are your teeth healthy?
Snape. We are all part of this!

Omg Amazing night, totally worth waiting for.

Four times in four hours

Lovely, sexy, funny bloke. From the way he was talking, he's not seeing this as a short- term fling. All pictures of ex wife have gone and he's planning to redecorate his house - good sign? He has just texted to say it was an amazing night! Feeling very good about all this

Sponge have sent you friend request on FB.

Ooh Western! long may it continue!
