Well - we're on for tonight. Have also sorted out babysitter so I am seeing the other one on Tuesday.

You never know ...

JulietteMontague · 19/05/2013 16:31

Pom rugby player thighs, oh yes

and OWW you never know indeed Grin

Scrazy · 19/05/2013 16:31

Look forward to the update OWW, you never know, hope it's a goodun.

KinNora · 19/05/2013 16:45

Hey does 'things' = pre-sexy time depilation ?

Pom oooh, I do like a man with muscly thighs and a pert arse

OWW I'm gazing into my crystal ball, I'm seeing a hunky,funny,spanky engineer who will look deep into your eyes and show you a fabulous time -woooooooooooohhhhh.

Juliette yes indeedy, almost as if you're going to say ' ohhhh, you might as well '

HeyBeenTryingToMeetYou · 19/05/2013 17:14

OWW I love 'you never know', it's what you advised me on my first date with MrAttractive (in so many words), so I wish you luck!!! Smile

I liked your premature posting Juliette. What is the fascination with the ass? . Shall we open that question to the males on the board, or is it best not to! Hmmm, perhaps not...

Yeah, pretty much Kin Grin, although I've suddenly had an attack of shyness! What's that about. Well, what will be will be and all that.

Pom sounds good,

Scrazy, have you watched 'Love is all you need', the recent Pierce Brosnan film? I highly recommend. A kind of edgy(ish) rom com, I loved it.

Scrazy · 19/05/2013 17:40

Hey, I haven't seen that film, will check it out, thanks.

KinNora · 19/05/2013 17:40

Hey I don't know if it's the same for everyone but my shyness tends to get roughly elbowed aside as my frenzied, slack-jawed libido gallops towards the prospect of fulfilment.

HeyBeenTryingToMeetYou · 19/05/2013 17:43

MEGALOLZ Kin Grin

JulietteMontague · 19/05/2013 18:17

Hey I spent years wondering about why I seemed to get men with an arse fascination until my 32H friend pointed out that it was for the same reason she got tit men. How could that not occur to me? Grin

Kin you're not alone, more than one lover has told me that they weren't expecting quite that much enthusiasm Blush

I should point out that it is possible to make a genuine mistake, you know. Sometimes it's dark and it's not as if we have a sat-nav.

WarmFuzzyFun · 19/05/2013 19:23

It's never dark when I am having an 'encounter'Grin I am a lights on girl.

HeyBeenTryingToMeetYou · 19/05/2013 19:29

Maybe an altered version of one of those 'all round parking sensor' type gizmos would come in useful?

I have fabulous boobs Jules and a very meh arse. I attract tit men, but they always seem to have delving urges .

KinNora · 19/05/2013 19:30

yes, of course Bant

Juliette 'quite that much enthusiasm' Grin I warn them that I'm there's a good chance they will weary of me mithering them for sex, they laugh in disbelief, some months later they are a dehydrated husk of their former selves

JulietteMontague · 19/05/2013 19:49

Satnav? just how big fullsome do you think my arse is? Grin

OP posts:
Moanranger · 19/05/2013 19:56

Bant Thanks for you always spot on POV. The old fashioned way it is! I was speaking to someone today who got naked but did not DTD - both fancied each other but geography meant a relationship not possible. That's a strategy worth considering.
KN!loved you owner's manual. If only...
Feel somewhat better today - normally I would have left the pub straight away, but had to stay a polite amount of time listening to loathesome " music" -I am not very tolerant in that regard. In future will give it a miss.
Re Lanzarote I like the Canaries, but you do need to chose your location with care.

Yogagirl17 · 19/05/2013 20:40

I forgot how much u lot make me laugh but I also forgot how fast the thread moves! Unlikely I will really keep up but will try to pop back from time to time if anything to report

OhWesternWind · 19/05/2013 22:18

Well, that was an interesting date! Tried to do a loo update but no connection - that's the problem with being out in the sticks.

He is good looking, much nicer than his photos Ike, nice body, definitely wouldn't say no. But about five minutes in we got onto trains, model railways, bike restoration etc and my heart sank. That was what I had been worrying about beforehand, all the references to trains and bikes and stuff had alarm bells ringing. We did about half an hour on technical specs of various vehicles then thank god got onto general conversation and he is very easy to talk to, very nice, just this trainspotting side that I am not enamoured by.

He wants to see me again, said I would. I am reserving judgment here.

HeyBeenTryingToMeetYou · 19/05/2013 22:27

Sounds good OWW, maybe he was just a bit nervous. Good looking, nice body and easy to talk to is great.

Scrazy · 19/05/2013 22:27

OWW, hmm, not sure I could get past his chosen topic of conversation, but if the rest was OK, then maybe give it another date.

KinNora · 19/05/2013 22:28

That sounds like a mixed bag then OWW, any chance he could have had the dreaded 'what on earth am I talking about this shite for ? Oh my god I can't stop ! Just listen to the crap I'm coming out with !' Date Gob affliction that some of us suffer ?

( I heard myself talking to Showbiz about testicular cancer on our first meeting, while my brain was wtf-ing at me )

Moanranger · 19/05/2013 22:30

OWWCommon for guys to have an anorakish obsession, as long as they keep it under control & have other interests.
I now have a date in local pub tomorrow night with Meet Up guy - before my Pilates class, so keeps it structured. I now need to start asking some probing questions ( resists urge to dust off spotlight & get out clipboard.)
Will update.
Am LMHO tonight with posts -wicked!

OhWesternWind · 19/05/2013 22:42

No Nora he definitely likes this subject of conversation, had a few texts about it last week as well.

He has sent me a very nice text saying how lovely I am and I have said I will see him again. He is very good on music and history and buildings (subjects where I can wear my anorak with pride) and is generally a very nice man, I think. I could definitely fancy him. Just had a kiss on the cheek at the end, and that was fine.

I think his mum is a neighbour of LM!

Pomegranatenoir · 19/05/2013 23:39

Kin I defo suffer from that particular condition! Wish I could say it was confined to dates but alas no, I just have a runaway mouth!!!

oww he defo sounds worth a second date. LOVE that he lives by LM's mum!!

Texts going well with Ruggers. Seem nice. I know absolutely nothing about rugby or people that play rugby. He lives an hour away from me and has said he will drive to me to meet up. Seems keen and I am too!! Eeeky, eeeek, eek!!

JulietteMontague · 19/05/2013 23:52

Date mouth. After the excruciating physio session with Dutch looking on, I got in the car, sat down and said That was good, I'm glad you made me come. I would have got away with it too if I hadn't then pulled my jumper up over my face Blush.

Hello all

omg can't even attempt to catch up again - might manage it tomorrow though as may have unexpected day off

anyway. v good weekend.

date and night spent with the RL based Mr Flirt proved to be very good, sex wasn't up to much at first but he was a fast learner... at the age of 40 had never given oral before Shock

sadly though he's also one of these types that just can't orgasm

can't relax and let go enough despite my lack of pressure?

too much porn?

who knows :-(

it's a real shame though because he's very sweet and the kissing was awesome as were his fast learned oral skills and morning cuddles (and more sex that got nowhere for him)

and he's one of my type too who i really fancy for the tall burly extreme maleness that drives my wanton libido absolutely stark staring mental

arse! why is it always me eh that finds gooduns but with dodgy sex problems?

I'll maybe try again see if it helps a bit it being 2nd time around but for fucks sake I am not a therapist and it just is nowhere near the same for me if the chap isn't getting what I am out of it.
