Bacon sarnies in suspenders, jacket strokers, coffee with a small 'c' and LOTS of Coffee with a capital 'C' it's dating thread 32

[lulubellaboozle]

Thought I take the liberty of starting us off again ...

Thankyou OWW I will do just that, I don't want to be a bad guy.

48, the way you refer to Mr. Oz makes it sound as if you're going to use, abuse and then lose Mr. RR just before Skippy comes back.

Bad girl.

I have a sneaking feeling that you and BantaBaby would be electrifying together........

Flo Me. No

Mr R&R will have a great time. Guaranteed

48 I wouldn't. Yet. Mr oz is on the other side of the world. Life is short.

banta when your date was worse than her worst picture, what made you change your mind a bit? Have you told her yet?

I am very shy underneath my exterior and I think I would need pretty good signals waving in front of my face before I made any kind of move. I think for this reason I do give off the wrong signal and I am maybe a bit too formal. I'm working on it.

I'm feeling quite settled today. My ex's public statement on a dating website 'I've finally met someone' must have been made within a week of him dumping me. Twat.

celeste that date sounds pretty good.

Oh and I could eat a whole one flo

Oh Scatty - I feel better for dumping POF last night...

I call POF. POC

48

I am speechless!!! Mr Fuck has just texted 'Hello stranger x'

Fucking feast or famine.

I may lure him in

Later

Shameless hussy !!

Doctor Who night sounds fun, I'm gorging myself on Andrew Lincoln in the Walking Dead.

48 tell him to naff off. Mr R&R seems lovely, really into you. I would give him a go. Bant I agree with Snape for why bother, but don't know what excuse you can come up with for that!

Well Skyman didn't even get in touch last night, so no Coffee for me. Well pissed off with the lack of contact, and no apology, so I have deleted his number from my phone. Not quite ready to delete him from dreaded FB yet, seems a bit like I'm spitting my dummy out cos I didn't get me leg over . But I have deleted all of his messages to me, and hidden him off my news feed, so he's not in my face.

Newsflash Talking to two guys on POF, both of whom use capital letters, full words and punctuation. And are hot! One possibly TOO hot, could be a fake picture, but maybe not- his profile says he is 5"7, I think if you were making a fake profile, you would probably not choose that height, would you?

break gonna play with him. Then toss him back

Break - you can do that trick Juliet described to see if it's a stock photo or something. And if he's only 5'4" then maybe saying he's 5'7 isn't pushing the bounds of impossibility. It's only fudging the truth a bit, not a ridiculous whopper.

Still haven't told SharkGirl that I'm not up for a second date. Part of me wants to as I know there will probably be Coffee, but her pictures were several years old, I think she shaved several years off her age as she looks more than just one year older than me. I would have placed her at mid 40s, not late 30s, but you can't always tell I suppose.

Scatty - I think alcohol made me change my mind a bit. I was thinking she wasn't bad looking when she turned up, but wasn't good looking enough for me to want to wake up next to. Then we had drinks, more drinks, food. The conversation was there, we were both flirty, we kissed. The crotch grabbing wasn't completely out of the blue, we were curled up in an outside bar drinking wine and she was getting frisky. I just had that sober bit in the back of my head thinking 'nah, this isn't a good idea' and suggesting we call it a day. If she'd offered to take me back to hers I was probably drunk enough to go, to be honest. Although maybe not.

So - how to tell her no after all?

Its not you its me. Too much going on to get into anything. Simple

Well I appear to have a bit of a dilemma. Or maybe I don't, not sure really.

A while ago, before Cuthbert, I was messaging a guy off POF. Not my usual type, but funny and quite clever. A couple of weeks ago he got in touch again and (because I wasn't quite sure if date 3 with cuthbert would ever arise) I responded, and there was some email/ text banter which descended into filth. He wanted to come and see me, etc etc but then cuthbert got back in touch so I cried off.

So he text me again today. Desperate to shag see me, and so on. Thinks I'm so hot, etc. Now its flattering and a part of me is tempted BUT I know that - like every bloke I've ever met OD with the exception of Cuthbert, he is only after sex, I'll end up sleeping with him on the first date and never see him again.

So really I think that's my answer isn't it? Unless I want more of the same old shit, best not to bother....

I think you've answered your own question spoon - you never actually met this guy, right? He's desperate to shag you, he'll never be in touch again if he does. Not exactly the beginnings of a beautiful friendship, is it?

Agree with 48 'had a lovely evening, but so much going on with work at the moment that anything approaching a relationship is a terrible idea for me & you deserve someone who can give you the attention you deserve you crotch grabber you'

Just back from the hobbit. Didn't know Mitchell the vampire from 'being human' was in it. My height restrictions might be revised downwards. Mind wandered halfway through the six the hours when the ring makes bilbo invisible as to the fun I could have 'haunting' voldemort by moving things in his flat and sneaking up behind him to break mirrors as he looks in them I'm not quite at acceptance yet.

Deleted Mr Fucks number again. Not worth ANY head space.

I think I have answered my own question...meeting him would be pointless. Better bloody well hang onto Cuthbert, as the only bloke I've met OD who doesn't just want to shag me, he truly is a rarity!

Snape I am now almost tempted to go and see the Hobbit (even though I hate all the LOTR stuff) just because the lovely Mitchell is in it... :)

Break PM me if you would like him 'checked out'

Spoon you have got it right, it's clear he would like sex with you and is trying his best. So, my advise would be to enjoy the flattery at a good distance and absolutely do not let him over your threshold.

Banta you have lots of perfect excuses at the moment, work, moving countries...

Poppy again, just enjoy the compliments and see what happens. As long as you keep a level head with him you should be able to work out if he is sincere overall.

Celeste I read your story earlier on the train journey, it was lovely. Whatever happens you had a wonderful 24 hours and will take those memories forward

Oh Mitchell.

bant I think get it over with as soon as possible using the I'm too busy, you're too special route.

spoon. Of course don't meet him. You are being ripened for sex. Of course if that's ok with you, go for it. But I think you don't want just sex.

48 that's it. Erase.

So, to add to the gloom of yesterday's messages today I got a message on Okc from a 19 year old female not living in the uk saying I should widen my age range. Ffs.
I get terribly long messages from men who are 'not looking' ...if they weren't bloody married I'd reply to them all!
My friend who wants me to be his fwb has disappeared but my ex fwb has reappeared and we may meet in Jan.

advice

Morning, all!

Poppy, you sound as if you like him, but he's over thinking it all a bit too much. He's realised that he tends to rush in, but hasn't grasped that that's not just a physical thing. If you find it a bit too intense, then I'd tell him, but make it clear that you like him as well. And enjoy the compliments! You deserve them!

I think Cuthbert is going to be hard work, Spoon, but he could be worth it in the end.

Celeste, that sounds like a lovely weekend.

I'm going to squeeze on the sofa with those of you watching box sets and catching up with sky+, and wait for someone to pass around the plate of David Tennant and Andrew Lincoln. I'll share my John Simm... Mr Walking Date is 'nice', but we worked out that we might not be able to see each other before Christmas now, and although he said he thought that was a real shame, I was a bit meh about it. That's not a good sign, is it?
