The all new, sparkly,2013 Dating Thread - 35!

[watchoutforthatsnail]

off you go.

Bant I have pictures of goats on my screensaver. You'd have to split it down into subcategories. Plus, given that I've spent a considerable amount of time with various sailors of all descriptions, you would have to include fish and whatever an octopus is.

mrs arse, i do believe thats called a blumpkin, or something. grim.

though if we are talking shocking, ive just had an email on match from the most stunning man. Im still open mouthed in shock. he also lived in japan. and is a scientist. I am excited.

I was about to tuck into my fish sandwich thanks for that Arse...retch

Hi all , still reading and following the thread, it just moves so fast, even if not posting, Arse that is gross!

I'm having a fab time with Mr Ex Army, all seems to be coming good crosses fingers to avoid giving it the kiss of death and as I get to know him better my insecurities which I have bored you all with on previous threads seem to be diminishing

Sorry to be a downer to thread.

Had a meeting at hospital today with my mums doctor. It was not good news.
They do not expect her to recover. If no improvement this week we will have a meeting to discuss 24/7 nursing care. Honestly reading between the lines they are talking end of life care.

I will continue posting on this thread as it does help take my mind of off it.

I am not giving up hope.

As you were.

At least it wasn't a sausage butty, Ike.

It has a name, Watch ? (that was my Lady Bracknell voice). I ain't googling. Scientist sounds promising.

Lubey, it's pretty hard to find something that turns my stomach but that almost achieved it.

God, 48, I'm so sorry, I thought she was recovering.

Blimey you lot can talk. I was 11 pages behind when I came back.

Kids much better thanks, and I seem to be over my serious man flu (sniffle) I had at the weekend too. I did sleep very well last night though.

No real dating updates from me. Ticking along nicely but slowly with geeky girl, seeing her again on Friday as its the next time we're both child free. Still early days so both of us (presumably) having the occasional glance at the trolley. Apart from the occasional text from bloody moon girl (who's just one of those that you can't quite let go of although they are far more trouble than they're worth and it'll never actually happen!)

Really sorry to hear that 48.

48 so very, very sorry to hear that news. Do you have some other family around to help you through this?

So sad and I'm thinking of you and your mum.

48, i am so, so sorry.
I dont quite know what to say, but if any of us can do anything, even just listen, let us know.

mrs arse... yep. i was asked the same once. i did decline.... nosey as i am, i asked why, and it was the power/ humilation of the girl, that got him off... not the feeling from it.

48 so sorry about your mum, sending hugs xxx

In terms of kink scale, surely you've all taken the "purity" test at some point in your lives? Came across it in various guises when at uni - think it pretty much covers everything under the sun. Definitely questions on animals & various bodily functions...not sure if there's a question on foot in foof though.

Arse I think because she has been talking a little and smiling we thought her swallowing would come back. The staff don't think so. She is sleeping most of the time. She has given up.

48, I'm so sorry to hear that. How have you been feeling/coping since you spoke to the doctor?

Bloody hell, Watch, what did you say to him ? I think I'd just laugh hysterically and then run away.

Is she on a specialist stroke ward, 48 ?

Libby shell shocked. Its her OH I am worried about he is in denial. One of my sisters is phoning soon she has been down there with him tonight. The staff and family have to slowly make him face the truth.

Yes she is on a stroke ward. Her diabetes is another complication.

48 - sorry to hear that, I thought things were looking positive. Hope you're okay.

Bill - just tell Moongirl if she's not going to get involved with you then not to get in touch for 6 months or so

48 xxxx to you and mum

Oh no 48, that's terrible if he's in denial and your family have to help him come to terms with it. Are you close to him? It sounds like it will have been a difficult evening for your sister but perhaps she'll have been able to help him take the first steps towards facing the truth?

Yes we are very close. He has been an absolute star to my mum. They have been together over 40 years.

48. That's sad news. Thinking of you. x

48 I'm so sorry. I hope you and yours are just about ok x

48 hugs
