Really hope you like him Kirsty!

I'm meeting him at half seven for a drink, then we shall just see what happens. I'm driving over to his town seeing as he came here last time. Also, there are no children or babysitters hanging about his house, unlike mine. Just saying.

Far, far too excited and worked up about tonight. Wondering what will happen. Don't think I will go to bed with him, not quite yet, but bloody hell it is tempting. Probably a bad idea though.

KinNora · 28/04/2013 12:35

Why do you think it's a bad idea OWW ?

Report

OhWesternWind · 28/04/2013 12:59

Think I'd like to know him a bit better first, and I have that worry that if I do, he'll disappear. I know that's not necessarily true but it's years of conditioning.

OWW - this is Indie who hasn't kissed you yet, right? Do you think maybe it's Carp time?

Report

OhWesternWind · 28/04/2013 13:18

It is totally carp time.

But, if the kissing goes well, and I think it will, it will be very tempting. Feeling a bit frustrated at the moment.

Report

KinNora · 28/04/2013 13:20

I'm reluctant to wheel out the carp, as I'm very sympathetic to your plight.

oww best of British for tonight. Shall have everything crossed for you. :)

Snapespeare · 28/04/2013 13:23

Personally, I'd stick with your initial feeling, that you don't know him that well (actually at all...) & bants advice, that you haven't even kissed him yet stands true. You may well be terribly frustrated. He might kiss like a cod.

If you are going back to his, does someone know where you'll be?

Good luck tonight Kirsty and OWW, will look forward to updates.

Have had another message from the chap who inspired me to post my pics online. His photos are great, his profile sounds intelligent, he is allegedly highly educated, funny etc, so why do his messages contain loads of txt spk? Grrrr, what a turn off. Not sure if I can be arsed replying now....

Report

OhWesternWind · 28/04/2013 13:43

No, I'm not going to go back to his, not tonight. It would not be a good plan.

He's not going to kiss like a cod, though, but I shall find out for definite soon.

Hi.

My mum is on the mend. kin mum is catheterised. Seems there has been mistakes made here. Now seems likely infection was brewing before mum returned home. Care plan has been revised. We soldier on...

Things were a little dodgy with Mr R&R Friday night. Shouldn't have gone over. Was very tired and I got a tad belligerent. Turns out he is very insecure. The dumping have come back to bite me on the arse.
Evening ended with us ok and some issues resolved.

Woke up saturday morning to neighbour ringing bell. Poor Tiger, Mr R&Rs cat had been hit by a car. He was devasted. They had a very special bond.

I went out last night with mates and got hammered. Needed to.

I never visualise roses around the door.

All a bit shite really.

Snapespeare · 28/04/2013 14:17

48 sorry you've been having a bit of a hard time. and sorry about R&Rs cat (we are cat people) sometimes you just need o go out with your mates and have a good skinful; you've been under a huge amount of stress, so unsurprising. Things will start to look up for you soon you know. :)

KinNora · 28/04/2013 14:17

OWW what if he kisses like a woodpecker like Software ? That's a right passion killer.

48 I think catheters, especially in female patients, with the shorter urethral distance and the catheter providing a ladder for bacteria to ascend to the bladder, are pretty notorious for increased incidence of UTIs. I'm glad they managed to rectify the situation.

With regard to R&R, he's a good un , like Nameless, and even the best have bad days, don't let it make you downhearted

HeyBeenTryingToMeetYou · 28/04/2013 14:18

Sorry you're having a shitey time 48, poor Tiger. Hopefully your mum's new care plan will improve things. Mates and booze can be a wonderful thing :)

VelvetSpoon · 28/04/2013 14:25

Good luck tonight Western and Kirsty am sure both dates will go well :) and Western fingers crossed for no codlike kissing!

48 glad your mum is a little better, sometimes just getting drunk and forgetting about everything for an evening is just what's needed.

I'm feeling oddly positive about C today, I could be deluding myself completely probably am, nothing has actually changed but I just feel like somehow it's heading in the right direction. Maybe because (due to me being 'off games') nothing actually happened when he stayed over, but there was lots of kissing and cuddling which was lovely. Am trying not to overthink why I'm feeling this way about it (because I know as soon as I start to analyse it I'll get all negative!) but just enjoy it :)

Thanks. Had a packet of hula hoops and 3 giant cookies

Mr R&Rand me had a laugh one night doing awful kissing we had encountered. He has had the wood pecker type. I have had the washing machine more than once

Report

OhWesternWind · 28/04/2013 15:04

Oh god 48 and Nora washing machines and woodpeckers!!! Oh I hope not.

Really sorry to hear about Tiger. Poor Mr R&R - how's he doing today? Don't worry about a bit of a hiccup (you too Snape) - it will all come out in the wash. Good news about your mum

Glad to hear all went well with C, Velvet

Kirsty how are you doing?

Hey it's irritating, but I'd reply. If you'd met him in real life, you wouldn't be making a judgement based on whether or not he uses text speak. It's not really important if the tone and content of the message are good.

About the same as you Kirsty! Too excited for my own good but it's fun. Hope there are some great kissers (and everything-elsers) heading our way.

Sort of getting ready slowly in bits and bobs. Hair is actually looking okay, very unusual as its raining which usually turns it into a giant ball of frizz.

Hey - the "if" in the last sentence if my last post is in the sense of "provided that" - bit ambiguous there!
