KirstyWirsty · 27/03/2013 21:36

I am wondering if my 2nd date on Sunday will be on .. MrFixit has not emailed today .. I sent the last reply last night before 10 .. He hasn't replied but he has checked my okc profile today .. (I have been on as have had some messages although they are no goers)

On Friday he asked me if I was online ( I had been on but was in asda when he texted ) I wondered if that was a red flag .. But thought I'd give him the benefit of the doubt .. But I am wondering if he considers us to be married because we've had a coffee Hmm

KirstyWirsty · 27/03/2013 21:38

Flipper I was I Brighton a few weeks ago and it was freezing.. But fab!!

VelvetSpoon · 27/03/2013 21:39

Flipper the wind coming off the sea is normally freezing! Wrap up well...or rely on a wine coat Wink

Utterly self indulgent whine coming up (sorry) I am fed up. Stupid £2k boiler is leaking. House is a shit tip again thanks to ignorant DC. Have friends turning up tomorrow though no idea when as they havent sorted that out yet. I cannot be bothered to go shopping after work and walk home like a packhorse carrying tonnes of food to feed them, esp not given that I will have 2 hours at least housework to do here too. and the christening I am committed to attending on Sunday is going to take me 3.5 hours and 6 changes on public transport to get to

Kin - thanks for the advice Grin I didn't know your a doctor! I'll try not to bug you with questions, but last one is it normal not to be walking properly after 5 weeks? It seems a long time Confused

KinNora · 27/03/2013 21:54

Oh god, I'm not a doctor, far too sensible for that Smile. What does your physio say about your current ability to walk ?

I will say that when I sprained my ankle, extremely badly, it took about a year before it felt completely normal, however, I had no physio whatsoever on mine, which in retrospect was a bit stupid.

OhWesternWind · 27/03/2013 21:56

MrV wants to come and wash my back for me!

mercury7 · 27/03/2013 22:04

ah,I can see that location would make a difference OWW Wink

Movingforward123 · 27/03/2013 23:22

Kin - Shock sorry I though you might have been and I missed it. Until I saw my physio I didn't bear any weight on it, now that I've seen her she told me to walk on if with my walker boot and crutches and gave me stretches.

I just really want to be able to walk. I can now walk a little around my house without crutches but not without the boot Hmm it just doesn't feel strong enough!!

daddyspence · 28/03/2013 07:13

I think this topic will make some good reading, hope you ladies have some success stories.

KirstyWirsty · 28/03/2013 07:42

Well MrFixit emailed me late last night .. To ask if I had any views on Vodafone sure signal!! No how's your day or any such small talk lol ..

daddyspence · 28/03/2013 07:44

who said romance was dead kirsty

KirstyWirsty · 28/03/2013 07:47

daddy we've not even been on 2nd date yet!!

Flipper924 · 28/03/2013 07:48

All will be well, Velvet. Your friends will arrive, they will not see the mess. You will get to the christening, and have a lovely time. I do hate that period before a busy weekend, when you know you'll have loads to do, but can't do any of it in advance to make it less busy.

Luckily, all of the planned hen activities are indoors. I haven't been to Brighton in years, though I used to live in Sussex. I saw Spandau Ballet there when I was 15. I'm expecting something different this time!

Flipper924 · 28/03/2013 07:51

Sorry, I am sending sympathetic thoughts, Moving, but have no helpful advice.

Kirsty, really? I think he might be looking for excuses to contact you....

daddyspence · 28/03/2013 08:03

wow not even the second date yet, im gobsmacked.

i suppose when im ready to start dating again this will give me some tips on how not to treat a lady lol

WarmFuzzyFun · 28/03/2013 08:23

Morning all.

It is official, I am tired, exhausted, but fully ravished!

Send me some green faces, I deserve them trust me Smile

OhWesternWind · 28/03/2013 08:26

Hi Daddy have seen your other thread. Hope you're alright and you're more than welcome over here in the future!

Nice morning text off MrV saying he's looking forward to tonight ...

OhWesternWind · 28/03/2013 08:28

Ha WFF good for you! Here you are Envy Envy Envy

KirstyWirsty · 28/03/2013 08:31

WFF Envy Envy Envy from me too

I just really can't be arsed with a this dating malarkey . I just want a man who is clean and has a fit body with considerable stamina to be delivered to my bed without all of this crap

KirstyWirsty · 28/03/2013 08:33

Oh and I sent MrHungarian a LinkedIn request last night ..

WarmFuzzyFun · 28/03/2013 08:36

Thanks OWW Smile

Kirsty, ' I just want a man who is clean and has a fit body with considerable stamina to be delivered to my bed' that is a summation of my night Wink

Is LinkedIn the business network thingy? Why'd he want to do that?

VelvetSpoon · 28/03/2013 08:45

Kirsty, I completely agree, this stuff is a lot of hard slog for (often) not much return! Although in my case I just want C when/if he decides being my boyfriend is not such a horrifically scary prospect...

Flipper, thanks for the calming words however I am still stressing over the state of my house, which I can't clean because I have to go shopping because friends are expecting dinner and drinks when they get here, even though I still don't know when that will be!

WFF Envy

KirstyWirsty · 28/03/2013 08:49

Loads of people in work do it WFF it's just a way to keep in touch

daddyspence · 28/03/2013 08:49

Thanks everyone, hopefully i will be able to contribute some stories when i do feel ready again.
