So silly. I'm a NCing regular. and a real proper grown up, I swear

I fancy someone. But I cant get up the guts to let him know or even to contact him. I've added him on FB (it's taken me months to build up to that) and he accepted. he's liked a few of my posts and a photo. I keep seeing him online (butterflies) and want to make contact but cant think of anything to say that isn't a blatant excuse to get talking to him. AFAIK he's single- well it says so on his FB.

arrgh this is so frustrating. if this was my best friend she would be chatting away to him no problem.

don't know what i'm posting for- just need to get this out of my head.

How have I missed this thread. I'm wanting to jump round the room squealing like a wee girl Grin

The male equivalent to the 'fanny gallops' is the cock twitch. :o Good luck OP, I've been lurking and cheering you on.

ImNotBloody14 · 30/06/2013 11:15

Thank you everyone for all your support!! I honestly dont think there'd be anything to cheer on if MN hadnt given me the guts to go for it in the first place.

I love MN! Grin

Good to know about the cock twitch, i shall check for a twitching cock next time he's here. Might have to check with my hand though as we'll be in the dark watching a scary movie Wink

14, thank you so much for this thread! I'm thrilled for you and can't wait to hear you've had a snig Grin

I'm a single parent and had a few half-hearted, short lived relationships recently, and you've reminded me how it's supposed to feel. No more 'meh' for me, I'm hanging out for a fanny gallop!

WhiteBirdBlueSky · 30/06/2013 16:16

Cock twitch!! Grin

ImNotBloody14 · 30/06/2013 16:30

Well he texted me earlier about something and i just replied xx to let him know id got it( no response was needed) and he replied " yes please" so at least we ( all of us- we're all a part of this now Grin) know snigging will be welcomed!

Squeeeee! I'm loving this thread!

Pancakeflipper · 30/06/2013 17:14

Ooh.... I am just remembering exciting first snogs. So much better the longer you wait for them.

MissStrawberry · 30/06/2013 17:23

Don't kids him yet! Bit soon Wink.

I can confirm the eyes, mouth, eyes, mouth, eyes, mouth does work.

So does a few gentle slaps which I have to kiss better and then when he hadn't got the hint I smacked him in the mouth and we were away Grin.

MrsHuxtable · 30/06/2013 17:32

Put the whole chair in another room!

TheDrugsDontWork · 30/06/2013 19:57

What MrsHuxtable said. You need to get rid of the chair. Under the stairs, in the garden shed, give it to a neighbour. Whatever you have to do.

Then when he comes round don't mention it, if he brings it up you can tell him it broke and you had to get rid of it. But there's room on the sofa for both of you Wink

If you really like the chair you can reinstate it after snigging has occurred.
Foolproof [big grin]

TheDrugsDontWork · 30/06/2013 19:58

Grin Grin Grin

ImNotBloody14 · 30/06/2013 20:10

14, thank you so much for this! Have been feeling really shitty recently and you've had me beaming and cheering for you as is toddler dd, who is now too hyper to sleep

Cannot wait for you to get your snigs Grin

MrsMeg · 30/06/2013 20:58

This thread is fabulous - trying (and failing) to justify adding the phrase 'fanny gallops' into daily conversation Grin

Good luck OP, I have high expectations of Tuesday night!

ImNotBloody14 · 30/06/2013 21:02

Me either. I hope he doesnt think me a slig after our first shig Shock that could scupper my plans for a sprong wedding and the winter birth of our first sprig Grin

ImNotBloody14 · 30/06/2013 21:04

GrinMeg! I dare you to say fanny gallops in an ordinary conversation- maybe not whilst having your smear though? Wink

HerrenaHarridan · 30/06/2013 21:30

Hide the chair! brilliant. That's one way to get you point across Grin

Excited that you've firmly established that he fancies you. You should just go for it in my opinion, grab him and kiss him, he'll love it!

So pleased you went for it. It's been great to be a part if it. In so happy for you. Smile

You inspired me too, thanks in part to you I have a date on Thursday Shock

ImNotBloody14 · 30/06/2013 21:38
Shock

You kept that one quiet!!

Spill

Name,age, gender, how you met, what you'll wear, where you're going!!

Excited! Eeeek!Grin

OP posts:
HerrenaHarridan · 30/06/2013 23:01

We met on a dating website. Spent 3 days with messages during back and forth. Swapped numbers and have been texting each other constantly.
Arranged today to meet on Thursday!
I'm quite nervous tbh but she sounds totally lovely and we seem to have loads in common.

As for what I'm going to wear ????? I just don't know?? I have hundreds of nothing to wear ranging from a 26-10 Shock

HerrenaHarridan · 30/06/2013 23:03

Oh and I've stil to figure out where we are going but it's a lunch date as I have to get back for bed time ( and it gives a fixed ending if things aren't working out)

ImNotBloody14 · 30/06/2013 23:21

Lunch date should be less pressure outfit wise than a sinner date. Maybe wear what you would if meeting a friend but a bit more glam with jewellery if thats your thing? I dont wear any jewellery so would feel really uncomfortable glamming it up- u get what you see with me Grin

Is she from your area?

OP posts:
ImNotBloody14 · 30/06/2013 23:21

dinner date! I meant dinner! Grin

OP posts:
NicholasTeakozy · 01/07/2013 00:33

Sinner date :o I assure you the cock twitch is real. A mate described it to me. We were in a pub and he told me one of the women there was so gorgeous she made his cock twitch. I may have cried. Then again, this was the same bloke who, upon seeing how well me and my then very good friend got on asserted that we were fucking. Completely missing that she's a lesbian and we were just on the same wave length.

That was back when I had friends and a social life.

ImNotBloody14 · 01/07/2013 13:05

Social life- that sounds like it should mean something to me. Grin

Glad to hear the cock twitch does exist! Now- how do i find out if this particular man twitches in my presence?
