See, Never gonna give you up is but a distant memory, no?

Give over Juliette!

He had a horrible voice, that man, especially with that special Stock Aitken and Waterman echo effect. I wish so very, very much that I had never mentioned him on this thread.

Poor SP and all the youngsters will be wondering what on earth all we are all blethering on about.

KinNora · 13/04/2013 22:43

Why, yes it is Juliette - you've done us a public service.

JoylessFucker · 13/04/2013 22:43

Can I be a touch self-indulgent? Having decided to pull myself together and get seriously dating, I was pleasantly surprised at the initial reaction. Now, of course, things have returned to normal shite ... disappearers, dickheads etc. Problem is that I've lost the enthusiasm for the FWBs and have put them out to pasture. Well, all but one, but he'll break my heart one of these days.

Grrrrrrrr ....

Who was it planning the cloning of R&R, Nameless and Mr Nice? Whoever it was, I'm in ...

48howdidthathappen · 13/04/2013 22:45

It is confimed. I have become a soppy cow

Mr R&R sent me a goodnight text. For the first time, signing off 'love r&r'.

I am a lost cause. But a happy one

KinNora · 13/04/2013 23:09

Joy I don't think any of us escape momentary self indulgence, have more .

Typical of GSM, I've just been liked by some gurning twonk who describes himself as 'over-articulate'. Articulate this pal, over my cold dead body.

KinNora · 13/04/2013 23:11

Eeeh 48 you pair of softies

JulietteMontague · 13/04/2013 23:15

Kin sadly, with gsm that's probably exactly what he would do.

48 yep soppy, its good innit

Joy I think OD is a bit like a hangover, we just forget how awful it can be until the next time.

VelvetSpoon · 13/04/2013 23:23

'Over-articulate'

hahahahaha.

I am convinced if you assembled all the single men in any UK town, and picked out the least appealing specimens in looks and personality, they would all be active on OD sites. Probably messaging lovely women such as us

The Ex is just an ignorant bigot, and displayed this a bit today. Nothing directed AT the DC, but suffice to say DS1 wasn't impressed by his choice of language (nor was I when DS1 told me).

As for the other non-flames, I present:

Has a GF who is supposedly oh so wonderful etc. Which is why he sent me a cockshot on whatsapp earlier. He has changed his number (I blocked him previously but his pathetic appendage is quite recognisable in it's inadequacy;

Is just a cringy embarrassment. Saw some recent photos of him today dressed like a tramp (and I don't just mean scruffy/dishvelled, but like he had taken the most worn out pieces of clothing, stuff you would put aside to do the garden in/use as dusters, and worn them as everyday clothes). and makes 'jokes' about his life/relationship which aren't funny in the slightest.

Honestly, lucky, LUCKY, escapes!!

JulietteMontague · 13/04/2013 23:32

Over articulated, I wonder if he meant his penis?

Velvet ew, yes lucky escape! GF must be so proud.

OP posts:

KinNora · 13/04/2013 23:42

A penis that can go around corners, for example ? Interesting concept Juliette - you'd never be safe would you - nip into the kitchen for a quick Jaffa Cake scoff, and there it'd be, peering at you round the doorframe. Scary.

VelvetSpoon · 13/04/2013 23:45

I am crying with laughter at the doorcornering penis

I am imagining it like one of those flexible screwdrivers....

Juliette I do feel a bit sorry for the GFs (nos 1 and 2 are different but equally crap men). And glad I'm not either of them.

JulietteMontague · 13/04/2013 23:51

It would have the added bonus of being extendable.

the extendable penis would end up in donnie darko should rephrase that, but it's too early for over articulation....

KinNora · 14/04/2013 08:43

In my head the cornering phallus was accompanied by the Mission Impossible theme tune - der der der de der der nenenowwwww nenenowwww ner ner. It's probably for the best that I'm back at work tomorrow.

Catching the train back darn sarf later, oh woe is me.
Showbiz is 'aware' that I'm travelling alone and wants me to text him to let him know I've arrived safely. Part of me thinks 'oh that's nice, he's showing concern', my Damaged by Men Who Claim to Love Me But Treat Me Like Shite centre ( DMWCLMBTMLS) sets off the klaxons and says' I'm not your girlfriend, PANICCCCC, PANICCCCC '

JoylessFucker · 14/04/2013 09:54

... and this is one of the MANY reasons why I absolutely lurve this thread. I am absolutely roaring at the extendable penis mission impossibling into donnie darko

48 I am continuing to love you and R&R
Juliette its so good to see that you've recovered your sang froid after ghastly ghastly man
Nora

There'll be way too much I've missed during my mope, so a time for a to gird my loins and off to POF to put up a new profile. Clearly a sucker for pain me ...

lubeybooby · 14/04/2013 09:57

Disturbingly, this thread now has me wishing a stretch armstrong penis would chase me round my house it wouldnt have to chase far

This is after laughing at having rick rolled myself... can't get that sodding song out of my head now :o

Morning all :o

lubeybooby · 14/04/2013 09:59

Kin of course you're not his girlfriend! Don't worry

You do get a say in whether that happens or not you know... being in a relationship is a mutual decision! chill!

I don't want anything putting you off getting an amazing shag having an enjoyable time with him.

ALittleStranger · 14/04/2013 10:00

I started setting up an OK Cupid profile last night. I think I hate it, don't know how some of you seem to get on with it so well. Not keen on the format and as for the people it's suggesting!

I think I'm going to stick with shelling out for GSM, even if it is slow. I've at least enjoyed spending time with most of the people I've met through it, and I think the wetness might just be a risk with OD.

SPsYoniTheOneAndOnly · 14/04/2013 10:17

Morning all.

I went out last night. I was in the pub and having a pint at 7. Only went for a couple of drinks. Ended up in town on sambucca and weird cocktails.

I came home with two plastic roses but no idea where they came from, I might have pulled but dont remember!

Pomegranatenoir · 14/04/2013 10:33

Morning all,

Sorry for my utter self indulgence but had to share with all you lovelies! I went out last night and had the most amazing night. Had brilliant time with my friends and more male attention than I have ever had in my life. After feeling so flat recently I was just what I needed! I got asked for my number 3 times and spoke to loads of men!!! I havent done that since i was about 18!! I feel so much better about od now. Think I needed to get things into perspective. Had a big talk from my friend as well and she sorted me out. I think I am slowly developing some self confidence!! Weird how I can have it at work but put me in a social setting and I quiver!!

My dad is now making me a bacon sandwich and I don't feel hungover! Happy Sunday everyone!!!!!

Yay pom!

Snapespeare · 14/04/2013 10:35

And sp sounds like you both had good nights! :-)

48howdidthathappen · 14/04/2013 11:09

I have an image of a stretch armstrong penis, singing 'never going give you up' shudders

Sounds like you both had fun Pom and SP
