We spent two hours talking family, the world, history, the tax man, banking crisis, food, wine, opera and ballet - not one word of sex

We had a small snog

I don't get it

So annoying that hotbutt totally gets it but his work and my work doesn't allow more than a meet up every couple of months now :(

Trying to sort a date with international jetsetter now but so far we have got - spain this weekend, scotland on mon, bedfordshire on tues, bristol on weds and no idea after that. We are trying for London on mon before flight to Scotland

oooo... lovely single dad I went on one date with last year has just messaged me on fb - he met Alex Kingston, which reminded him of me Blush it was a long time ago and not sure if any of you will remember - he was nn'md 'the doctor' as a massive DW fan and we found each other on gsm. he was apparently related to Kurt Cobain. Hmm the difficulty was the distance, although his mum is in London so he visits every so often. we are now fb friends - he accepted my friend request, that I have no recollection of making. Hmm

not a patch on my nameless, oh no.

I've five foot ten with ankles that are surely made of glass. i can do a chunky heel, but that's about it. 2 inches or so is my limit, else I have to duck to get through doors.

I'm 5' 2" - 5 inch heels take me up to normal height and stop adult men feeling the need to ruffle my hair.

OhWesternWind · 12/04/2013 16:10

I know Nora, I have some fond memories of snogging by the neon palm tree in Coconut Grove NiteSpot to the dulcet tones of Mr Astley . . .

MsC weird, but I am getting less and less surprised by weirdness the more dating I do . . .

Just had a text from an engineer displaying something that might be a sense of humour. All is not lost.

KinNora · 12/04/2013 16:17

Ooooh at funny engineer, any chance he could be a go-er OWW ?

My first snog was to Do You Really Want to Hurt Me at a house party, giant floppy lips and saliva central ( him, not me )

VelvetSpoon · 12/04/2013 16:19

MsC its rubbish isn't it. And I find it somehow more disappointing the ones who turn out like this AFTER you've met them - at least if they do it beforehand you know not to bother with a meeting!

Wonder how Juliettes date is going...

OhWesternWind · 12/04/2013 16:20

Looks like he didn't cancel!

My first snog was at a university ball (I was a late starter Blush). Don't remember what was playing, only rushing to the loo and nearly being sick after, which was no reflection on the snogging, but a combination of too much alcohol and too much excitement!

JulietteMontague · 12/04/2013 16:23

Ok he's late...

JulietteMontague · 12/04/2013 16:25

Fucking hell. I've left him.

You walked out juliette?

VelvetSpoon · 12/04/2013 16:38

Juliette what happened??!

KinNora · 12/04/2013 16:42

What an utter arse and micropizzle Juliette.

JulietteMontague · 12/04/2013 16:48

Odious little man. Looked like Worzel gummage, really. Not 44, late 50's I'd say, started to mansplain all about A levels (teacher) and then got pnto the subject of history. I took all I could then said 'well I do know, I have a Ph.d in history'. Without skippong s beat He said he was sure that was nice for me but...

Just before I left he said what's yr star sign, er Gemini. Thought so, he said, mood swings and so on. Fucker

He sounds like a right catch!

Dont blame you for walking out

Scrazy · 12/04/2013 16:56

Juliette, what a horrible date, how long did you stand him for?

SPsYoniTheOneAndOnly · 12/04/2013 16:58

Scrazy By the times on her post saying hes late to her saying shea left, I'd say she give him maybe a minute Grin

VelvetSpoon · 12/04/2013 16:58

bloody hell.

Don't blame you at all.

KinNora · 12/04/2013 16:59

Oh my good god, what an utter wanker, especially the 'mood swings' comment.

KinNora · 12/04/2013 17:00

(He's not going to be finding anyone to hide the sausage with any time soon )
