New thread time! Great timing with it being new years day...

Most of you know what to do... off you go!

Just in case you don't... just chit chat all your dating related stuff here. If you are new, just jump right in to the blethering. More the merrier!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! :o

yeah he probably thinks winding you up will make you realise how witty he is. But it does have the unfortunate side effect of making you think he smells like rotten fish, which is not a good thing in a man, generally (or tbh a woman)

Is he likely to have stolen anything - chocolates, a toy from a cracker ? ( my halfwit mongrel has previous for this ). It's a bank holiday again for you today, isn't it ? I'd probably call the out of hours vet if he's not drinking or not passing urine/faeces or looks distressed or becomes difficult to rouse.

yogadog - I like that. :)

No, really don't think he's eaten anything he shouldn't, he doesn't really do that. The only things he's ever tempted by are cheese, sausages and pizza! Phoned the out of hours vet just for advice but if I need to take him in it's £124 plus treatment! ShockSad Hopefully he will pick up, if not will go to normal vet first thing tom.

Bloody Nora, they make a fortune. If he's just off his food rather than anything else then he probably will be ok to wait.

Mine is a rescue dog, who was very skinny when we got him and appears to have had to steal food to survive, unfortunately he's never got out of the habit and once stole half a homemade chocolate birthday cake ( made with 70% cocoa solids chocolate ) from the kitchen work surface - he was a very poorly, and very sorry for himself, dog after that little misdemeanour.

A slightly belated happy new year to all. I've been laid low with a shocking cold, chest infection and now a secondary ear infection which has left me deaf in my left ear. Despite all this, I managed to spend new year with SugarDaddy, as my DS decided he wanted to go over to a friends house.

DS is still lovely and very attentive. It's my 52nd birthday tomorrow and he's planning to take me out.

I have known him a whole three weeks now and it feels pretty intense. We have met and talked loads. I am not worried as the feelings are mutual, we both seem as keen as each other. Just need to try and take it as it comes.

Well Mr Cheeky got quite drunk last night and sent me a lot of drunken rambling texts .. The last one said 'think I luv you' Hmm .. He is absolutely mortified today .. Feels as though I somehow have now got the power of the relationship .. I have noticed him getting increasingly mushy over the last couple of weeks so wasn't really a shock.. I really like him but it is far far too soon for all this stuff .. And we are not really in ideal situations with me living at mum's and him lodging with his pal!!

Poor Mr Cheeky but he thinks you've now 'got the power in the relationship ' ? Is that what he said ? because if he has, that's the kind of thing that makes me feel uncomfortable ( that might just be me, though ) .

Hi everyone Smile

Well I'm not sure if you remember next door neighbour guy, just noticed on his Facebook he is in a relationship, so I guess that's our date blew out the water Grin

I really want to meet a new guy, I'm seriously thinking about going back online!

Should I just go back on pof? Or has anyone got any other ideas? But only free sites Grin

KW Feel I am maybe in a similar boat with Mr R&R, think he nearly let the L word slip out Shock Tells me I am the sort of woman he has always wanted.
He asked me if I thought of him as my boyfriend. I said My crazy sex maniac.

That's alright then, Kirsty

48, I think we need Banta, Bill or Bunny to answer that one.

Yes it would be useful to have a male perspective.
