hi
i havent been on in a while basically been trying to sort my self out !

anyway i did carry on with the online dating thing a few dates with idiots but nothing exciting.
but last week i got chatting to a really nice man , he hadnt popped up on my search but on the home town thing, i looked at his picture and thought he had a lovely smile so sent him a message, we chatted away but on saturday after a few enquiring mesages i realised i sort of knew him .
we had met in passing only ever exchanging a few words but id always thought how nice and kind he seemed.

now my delimia is he is my ex bf neighbour but my ex has a new gf and part of me thinks well you like this bloke why not meet him ( both seem keen to the point that i am hoping to see him tomorrow and not wait till weekend) and i know i am thinking to far infront but would it be awkward if bumped into my ex?

i have told this possible date that we have meet and i explained where and when etc and he seems fine with it even saying that i always looked nice when we passed on the stairs.

part of me also thinks maybe i thought he was nice when i was dating my ex as i know silly little things about him already ie drys his washing in the hall

i just wanted some girly opions ?????

What have you got to lose? It's only one date. You might find that, once you get properly chatting, he's a complete idiot and you don't want to see him again... Or he could be a stayer. In which case it would be daft to exclude him just because he lives within a particular radius of ex boyfriends.

Yeah, agree with Cogito - just go for it. I'm sure you can live with a few minutes of awkwardness if it does come to that. Chances are it won't though.

You going to give it another go, or not bother? Made a friend instead, maybe? Smile

kittykat10 · 15/03/2013 11:40

he rang me last night and i kept wanting to say what ever happens we wil be friends.
he texted me this morning but there wasnt the same tone to the texts as before.

I'd guess the tone has changed as both of you know it's not going to be a sexual relationship. One wouldn't expect anything else tbh.

he not had a sexual relationship
