I'm 31 too wine. I was chatting to a 26 year old but he just lookedso young and not like a proper man yet.

Quick dip into the thread to say that if anyone knows any men with Northern Irish accents, send them right this way - 'rarrrrrrr rarrrrrrr rarrrrrrr'.

Of course I speak like Liam Gallagher - ' 'Iyerrrr, mad fer it, ar kid'

janflan · 10/03/2013 14:04

Actually i almost dated a 23 year old and he was a manly one. So my theory doesn't work.

I've only ever been out with older men so. do find the younger ones a bit unfamiliar.

Can i not keep the shallow one? He's making me laugh with his puns and has just messaged me with the definition of shallow.

Snapespeare · 10/03/2013 14:34

i used to have a bit of a thing for posh glasweigan accents (kelvinside accents) hence DCs dad. Mine changes dependent on situation...bit posh at work when it has to be, but lapsing into sarf lahndahn if i get a bit squiffy. Grin

After meeting TT who was super sorted, grown up, manly and non babyfaced responsible etc and only 27 I am more open to the idea of younger men... if any are interested I'll give em a chance...

There must be a kind of optimum age thing to avoid knobbers, all the (much) younger men have been lovely, the knobbishness as standard seems to creep in at about 46 on a fairly steep trajectory. By the time they get to 50, well I have only met one in total who was ok but thinking about it he was 48 at the time. LM wasn't a knobber but bonkers at 51 so that was never going to get any better, don't get me started on 55 Hmm.

I lowered my age limit again, now down to 40 and I'm getting better men but they are mostly in the 'might want kids' category and not going there again.

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with younger men i just find them an unknown species.

oopsadaisymaisy · 10/03/2013 15:43

Hi all. Just got back from my coffee date. He was very sweet and verr posh. I wasn't really attracted to him. He however was nearly sitting on top of me! I didn't like his smell. I think that's what put me off :) There was something very sexual about him, although I'm like a dog on heat so it could just be me Grin

lubeytoobooby · 10/03/2013 17:14

I'm nearly ready to go out and meet my Scotish chap for the evening... excited/nervous now... eeep

Snapespeare · 10/03/2013 17:18

lubey. Hope it goes well! :)

MirandaWest · 10/03/2013 17:20

Hello :) it is snowing Hmm.

Had good evening with Mr Nice and also good sex last night and this morning Grin. With him his ability to maintain an erection is to do with other stresses in his life it would appear and both of us happy that things are better :) We went to a pub for lunch rather forgetting it was Mother's Day but we got squeezed in :)

Went back to his house to get his DS and take him to his mums house (was his 18th birthday yesterday so he was a little delicate) and then pick up DS and DD from the middle of York. XHs mum and dad were there - I think everyone probably checked each other out (Mr Nice stayed in his car).

Came back here and as he's going away tomorrow and his car is less likely to get dents on it here he's left his car on my drive and we drove him back. My DC are behaving more naturally with him now which is good :)

Got nice Mother's Day cards with a tea bag on (from DS - made at cubs. I don't drink tea. He does so that's ok) and a house made our of sponges made by DD at brownies. Now were watching Mr Benn. Life is pretty good (although I will miss Mr Nice a bit. Good thing is America is into summer time so he'll only be 7 hours behind us Grin).

MirandaWest · 10/03/2013 17:20

Have fun lubey :)
