Bill you know the best thing you could do is text MG saying you can't make it. If she actually became a gf she would be that crazy one you try and laugh about in years to come but you'd rather not think about. You have women at your feet already, you deserve one who treats you right.

Bant fnarr. That's priceless Grin

Kirsty It's Sunday, he will be in touch before Tuesday, he has to it's his birthday...

OWW nothing wrong with two in one day at all, as Bant says seperation is the key to manovers (that was a spelling error but I quite like it).

Kin it's four sleeps! He was very sweet to me last night when I finally cracked after my day and trailed snot over the screen Blush. Feeling more chipper today, thanks again for your kindness.

Dutchy is lovely Juliette. Bet you can hardly wait. Are you shagging fighting fit now in the back department?

Put the badge away Nora - it now transpires that Bloke 2 is away this weekend. Bit relieved if I'm honest, one at once is enough.

KinNora · 02/06/2013 11:45

I've put the badge back in its box as instructed OWW.

OWW my back is still a bit crap but I can walk and sit without wincing. Given that I could barely move for a lot of last time, the poor man won't know what's hit him Grin.

Kin yes he is a sweetie, I'm getting to appreciate just how good he is

Awwww, you're entitled to a smidge of slush.

Did they diagnose a prolapsed disc, Juliette ?

Mornin darlinks Oww WOW result! Jules nearly there chick! Backs are a no joke are they...lovely girl. Men have arrived in the village. Could have copped off last night in RL shock! But didnt fancy either of em. Oh and am having a great time messaging Mr Beard and Mr Falmouth both lovely geezers it seems...

Kin It's a 'bulging disc' apparently, not sure if that's prolapsed. I've now started doing stuff at the gym which has made a huge difference Smile

OhWesternWind · 02/06/2013 13:09

Men in the village Ike?? Shame they're not coppable, maybe they will grow on you - or are they together?

Getting cold feet now about him coming round - yikes, yikes and thrice yikes. Have spent all morning cleaning the house and it's still a dusty, rubbly building site full of rads and tiles and sacks of mortar. Can't disguise lack of carpets either.

KinNora · 02/06/2013 13:42

Ah ok Juliette, medical terminology is always tricky but yes I'd say that 'bulging' probably means the same as 'prolapsed' or 'herniated' ( if you've seen any referral stuff, they might've written PID ) - they usually recommend something like Pilates or The Alexander Technique to strengthen your paravertebral muscles, I think but I'm not a physio (or else I'd be more use and a bastard )

Men in the village, Ike ? Whatever next

Thanks everyone. Oh i know full well what I should do. It's just that there are some people who are just under your skin so I also know full well I won't do what i should. Which would be to ignore. I will, however, take no more messing.

Bill, I'd take a pass on MoonGirl if I were you. I've got a fella like that, and its actually really difficult for me because I do like him a lot, but he's very wrong for me and I'd be terribly unhappy in the end.

I've been talking to Oil Rigger quite a bit, he's such a sweetheart. He wears his heart on his sleeve, which is actually quite refreshing as I don't have to guess at where his head is. Need to see him a few more times to actually know, but I think this one could go somewhere as long as I don't get scared and do a runner.

Bant and Kin, I am giggling so much over your language error stories. Too funny Grin

Juliette glad to hear your back is better. You're going to knock his socks off Grin But if he's wearing socks during sex there will have to be words...

Sorry haven't caught up yet, only left date in time to come straight to work today [shame]

Met him at 12 and seemed pointless to go home when I was still out with him at 10pm. I figured we'd killed at least three dates in one, so...

He's lovely, cooked breakfast followed by huge bubble-making in the park! And as I really hope you'll hear more of him I shall call him Bubbleman!

Rafaella I'm glad you're feeling more positive about Oil Rigger, it's very hard, I think, not to get scared and to start trusting someone again, I hope he turns out to be marvellous.

Yay Secret ! - give that woman a level Four Jezebel badge immediately.

Report
JulietteMontague · 02/06/2013 17:35

en in the village you say? Whatever next Ike.

Secret fantastic! Jez level 4 I think. Not sure what 5 is for but I'm sure someone on here will get there.

Raf this is sounding rather good. Any sense of fancying him yet? If there was any sign of socks during sex there would be no sex

Kin yes bulging hernia has been mentioned too. It's taken a while but it's definitely getting there. Agree physios are a 'type' Grin

Report
JulietteMontague · 02/06/2013 17:36

Crossed posts with Kin there Secret. Looks like Level 4 is confirmed.

KinNora · 02/06/2013 17:40

Deffo Level Four, I'm thinking Level Five will be gained with the assistance of Dutchy later this week Juliette Grin

Obviously it would be unprofessional to diss my physiotherapy colleagues scary

I had physio for a prolapsed disc several years ago Juliette, I think it was brought on by weight training, still prone to a bit of sciatica but I find yoga helps keep it at bay, and running tends to spark off the sciatica a bit:(

On my personal Jezebel scale level 5 is sex within half an hour of first meeting someone, that kind of thing is now outside of my comfort zone :o

Hows this for Jezebel. My mate fb'd one of the blokes in the pub last night after I left her at her door, bloke came over to hers, they ordered in a load of booze and copped....

hello, may I join please? looking to start dating again.
One question - is it possible to meet a date who DOESN'T demonise their ex???? The last three men I dated were so bitter, and it's so boring hearing the 'oh she was such a bitch / I actually think she was mentally ill' type comments! I actually get on really well with my ex, but I almost feel obliged to slag him off as it seems to be the done thing!

Any thoughts, ladies and gents of the dating world?
