Oh now I've missed the troll post.

OWW, what a coward, you have done the right thing with him.

ike1 · 24/03/2013 19:36

Any trot cures...feeling rank ...

Snapespeare · 24/03/2013 19:36

oww I can throughly recommend copy, cut and pasting all the lovely and true things everyone has said about you into a draft email or word doc so you can read it when you feel a bit shitty not that I've ever done that Hmm because if you feel sad of waver-y or if he contacts you, you can read it and take further heart.

JulietteMontague · 24/03/2013 19:38

Ike best let it out for now, then if it continues either natural remedies like charcol or some like imodium won't cure it but will stop it. Avoid very fatty foods, milk etc and get plenty of fluids.

JulietteMontague · 24/03/2013 19:40

OWW never mind putting it in an email, print it out and stick in on the fridge Grin

KirstyWirsty · 24/03/2013 19:43

ike try eating banana .. That should help

KinNora · 24/03/2013 19:45

Or have something with codeine in it Ike

lubeybooby · 24/03/2013 19:46

ike I always have a good meat and two veg type meal with mashed potato if it happens to me... but I think you are veggie? so maybe not the best solution.

ok docs.x

Scattylatte · 24/03/2013 19:48

oww I thought I would really miss my ex (he was emotionally unavailable) and I did but the missing was more like a trauma than a true longing for him. Now I don't give him a second thought. Recently I have had to lean on people and I've come to the conclusion that friendship and people knowing me is so important. You are right to feel calm as your mind will be settled.
Im currently drinking a small bottle of processco and eating oven chips. Feed your soul oww. We are here.

KinNora · 24/03/2013 19:56

Codeine bungs you up - I'm really very professional

KinNora · 24/03/2013 19:56

And Scatty now I want Prosecco

MirandaWest · 24/03/2013 20:00

I will have a can of spritzer stuff when I have sorted this room out Hmm

ike1 · 24/03/2013 20:02

I like codeine it chills you out too... dont have any though...meh...

WarmFuzzyFun · 24/03/2013 20:03

I have continued on my crisps and tea diet. What a class act we all are eh?HmmSmile

AndLibbyMakesThree · 24/03/2013 20:10

OWW, I can't believe LM was too cowardly to come round and talk. Though at least that made it easier for you to make a decision. And, as others have said, the fact that you feel relatively calm suggests that it's the right decision.

I hope you continue to feel calm/ok-ish and confident about your decision. You're so empathetic, caring and warm, and so funny - somewhere out there is a very lucky man who's going to give you everything you deserve.

KinNora · 24/03/2013 20:11

It doesn't chill me out, Ike but then even morphine didn't do that - I'm nails me

Shinyshinyface · 24/03/2013 20:11

Can I come and join you? I'm doing the dating thing and getting into a few scrapes...maybe that's better than being bored...not sure though. I've been using OkCupid for about 3 years now and found it pretty good...dipped a toe into murkier waters here and there but not found any other sites I like.

Had a 2 dates with Mr French last week, pretty good...he was away this weekend and I had the unexpected opportunity to entertain (ahem) a very lovely young man last night (he's 33, I'm 46 with 3 teenagers). I've got myself into a stupid pickle over it...he's made it clear in a text today that it's a one-off...and I did know that really but I'm sooo disappointed at the same time. Now I'm not sure if my heart's in it to see Mr French again this week...but that makes me a horrible person, right?

(last night was very very lovely though)

Hello all!

KinNora · 24/03/2013 20:23

Hello Shiny, it does not make you a horrible person - have you seen WFF's Rules of OD ? They're vair good

Movingforward123 · 24/03/2013 20:27

Ike - I have loads of codine here which I bad for my bad leg, I was very bunged up with it! And it did make me feel extremely calm! And never calm Grin

WarmFuzzyFun · 24/03/2013 20:35

Blush you guys...My Rules, they are the summation of the dating thread hive wisdom.

Shinyshinyface · 24/03/2013 20:39

No! where are the rules??

KinNora · 24/03/2013 20:45

We reckon they should be the first post on every new thread

lubeybooby · 24/03/2013 20:47

They should indeed! repost them WFF please and I'll save them ready for the next thread...

Movingforward123 · 24/03/2013 20:48
