OWW I get this as well. As for starting the flirty stuff, I wouldn't have a clue. Again not exactly subtle.

Would someone mind sending me a message on pof, so I can send a test reply. I have a feeling that when I quick reply it's not been sending (nothing shows as sent). PM me if you're up for it and I can give you my profile name.

I agree OWW but it would just be nice to have a bit of a flirt get my confidence up. Obvioulsy i wont lead anyone on or anything

KinNora · 02/04/2013 18:22

OWW the Fab lolly comment made me laugh a lot, are we all at it ? I was pretending to be reading a book at the same time so 'didn't notice' how I was eating it or indeed the effect it was having on him - mwahahahahaha

Lubey geddin !

Spence do it ! do it ! do it !

Juliette the ones with lots of tiny coloured balls on the end

lubeybooby · 02/04/2013 18:23

Juliette it was OWW that mentioned the fab lolly... in reference to provocative cornetto eating, I believe :o

Come on bloke... be available Friday be available Friday be available Friday be available Friday be available Friday be available Friday be available Friday be available Friday be available Friday be available Friday

lubeybooby · 02/04/2013 18:24

Oh and Juliette I'll send you a message... PM me your profile..

KirstyWirsty · 02/04/2013 18:25

What is the youngest you would consider shagging? I have been messaged by a cute 22 year old and a really quite attractive 33 year old (I am 45)

I am in the same state as lubey and juliet .. Am I just getting a bit carried away?

spenceuk · 02/04/2013 18:27

kirtsy my advice would be to go with the guy in his 30's at least he will know what hes doing

KinNora · 02/04/2013 18:28

I'm 46 Kirsty and if I liked them, I probably wouldn't say no. Go for it, I say.

Disclaimer - the proximity of some action may well be making me a bit giddy.

OhWesternWind · 02/04/2013 18:29

I'll message you Juliette but won't be til half eight/nineish if that's alright ...

Go for it, Spence!

So I need to tell Cakey to forget the pub, we'll meet in an ice-cream parlour?

He's out on the town in Mcr on Friday Nora, so if a bloke offers to buy you a lolly you'll know who it is!

MirandaWest · 02/04/2013 18:42

I like Fab Lollies

Is it bad that I am slightly glad that XH is having DC tonight as well so I get to finish my mystery shopping reports in peace and then slob around the place and get the bed to myself? Definitely nowhere near ready to do living with anyone other than DC although the thought is somewhere on a distant horizon...

OhWesternWind · 02/04/2013 18:44

Oh I've quite got used to having the house/big bed to myself too Miranda.

Kirsty not much point in asking me with my track record but my last casual was a holiday romance and he was 31 although I did think he was about 40 when I met him.

KinNora · 02/04/2013 18:49

Ahh, I'd look out for him OWW but I'll be in that there Brizzle drinking cocktails and behaving like a trollop

Kin the ones with lots of tiny coloured balls on the end. Good job I googled Fab lolly in the end, could have been awkward Smile

MirandaWest · 02/04/2013 18:52

Bed is mine alone more often than it isn't but I suppose it is the feeling of house completley to myself tonight (which happens rather less often).

VelvetSpoon · 02/04/2013 18:54

I sleep far better when I'm sharing a bed than I do on my own. I blame 4 or so years of co-sleeping, having a bed to myself feels strange!

Lubey any reply from Friday's potential yet?!

Re Twinkly man, it's a whole combination of things, not just some misplaced sense of loyalty to C but also the work aspect, plus I am not entirely sure he is single, and also he is a LOT older than me. So, it's nice being liked (if that's what it is) but it won't be going any further!

KinNora · 02/04/2013 18:57

Juliette < innocent face >

lubeybooby · 02/04/2013 18:58

Velvet he asked if I was serious with a bit of a shocked face (in a good way I think!) but also in that message he said he was just going out and would be back to chat later if I was around.

So I'm guessing it's a possibility for him but I won't find out for sure til later

OhWesternWind · 02/04/2013 19:35

Right, flutters, he's just texted he's out walking and is a bit out of breath ... Must be an opening here!

OhWesternWind · 02/04/2013 19:37

Flirters not flutters!

KinNora · 02/04/2013 20:01

'You'd be more out of breath if I was doing you standing up in the freezer aisle in Tesco ' ?

Thanks for the offer of messaging OWW. I was indeed doing it wrong [shame], have now learnt how to do it properly.

See this is where flirting just does not come naturally fnarr, the only things I can think of would not really set the right tone
