Here we go - all dating chat here!

( and I'm still laughing at the thought of Juliette as Snape's Monica-esque wedding planner )

I'm nearly fifteen years older than she is, look fifty times better and judging from FB have a hundred times her wit and knowledge. Oh YES!

Kin I used to be a Projects Manager, sometimes I miss it. Be afraid

If she comes back I'm going to say we should do something all together. Should be interesting!

Ha Juliette I am a Senior PM too. Be VERY afraid.

Ok, see what I think OWW is yes she does have a thing for him, and that due to generally being depressed and kind of beaten, he isn't rejecting her as much as he ought to be.

I think he might be in a situation with her that he isn't quite sure how to extricate himself from.

Don't put it past these lesser beings, and don't think there isn't anything attractive about her - men always affair 'down' (if they are the straying type that is, not all men, just for clarity!)

I really, really don't think he's doing anything with her, I honestly don't. But I do think she would if she could but she can't. I think he may be aware of her "affection" and has got himself in an awkward situation that way, but nothing more.

There really isn't anything attractive about her that I can see and LM gets quite irritated with her. I think she railroads him into things though and he goes along with it because he promised his best friend her dad that he'd keep an eye on her for him.

So, basically, if I find some lucky,lucky man to be the second Mr N, I can draft both of you in, Juliette and OWW, as wedding planners ? Mmmmmm, imagine the organisation...

I'm laughing at juliette geller as well. 'Release the doves RELEASE THE DOOOVES!!!'

I would have the most low key wedding ever, me.

Yeah that's it OWW. I could tell there was some kind of unexplainable hold over him there. How bloody annoying!

I have no doubt that in whatever way, or maybe several, she's adding to his stress as well. Whatever the feck is going on, she's proper bad news.

Snape low key wedding? That's what you think

I would never have a wedding ever. Managed to avoid it for forty odd years so I'm doing well. Can't think of anything more hellish than Velvet's friend's type of do.

So maybe I'd actually be a shite wedding planner. Stick with juliette, that's my advice.

I don't think he's doing anything with her either. She is just a very annoying, added pest.

Yep, and she even has an annoying voice. But he'll never get rid of her because of his obligation to her. She does stress him because she is very demanding and pesters him a lot. I think she'll settle down when she finds a new man and gets used to living on her own. I hope! But I am going to say let's meet. Would have done it this weekend if it hadn't have been this particular weekend. Dies that sound like a good plan?

Yes, good grief hope she finds someone soon.

and I reckon yes to meeting her as well.

Yes, she'll just be so awed by my overall stunning amazingness that she'll pack her bags and head for home.

It does comfort me that she lives a long way away and very soon LM won't have a lot of free weekdays and Saturdays as he'll be slaving away in his shop. So much less fun to hang out with.

I'm feeling really good at the moment. Calm and, yes, happy. All will most definitely be well.

Western, so glad you're feeling a little better. I also understand the thing about wanting to wait til things are on a more even keel, but also agree with what everyone else has said. I'd trust the friend about as far as I could throw her. Hence you should definitely suggest meeting up.

I had a bit of a cry, a sleep and am still a bit fed up. No idea when I'm seeing C next, I text him on thurs and no reply so far. But I know he won't see me in the week because he has to get up too early, and he's away next weekend, which means I won't see him til the fri after next. I will try and bite my tongue til then and not send the text...

Oh Velvet this is such a difficult situation to be in. I really don't know how you cope. I don't understand why he can't see you for an hour or so one weekday, even if he has to be up early the next day. I get up around 6 (in theory) in the week and still manage to go out sometimes. Maybe you should send a modified text ie that you'd like to see more of him -what can he suggest?

Hope you can work something out and soon.

Week night, even.

velvet I'd send a form of words of the text. Stuff this always waiting. It's not better than nothing. You could be doing this for mo this without any progress.

Mo this = months...

I would text him too and say you are feeling a bit fed up and would like to hear from him more, and try and work out another way to spend some time together when you can't do a Friday all nighter.

C can't get up at 6, he struggles to be up by 8, and he needs to be up before then if he stays here. On a weeknight (always assuming I can persuade the evil ex to have the DC that is)

If I sent him that text I expect I'd never hear from him again. I hope at least face to face there might be some discussion. If I send it I'm cutting my nose off to spite my face - because it's not like the alternatives are so great , skype bloke from school. Or going back to POF and another 3 years of first dates and no sex.
