The Rules

  1. Develop a thick skin;
  2. Do not invest emotionally too soon;
  3. It's all BS until it actually happens;
  4. Trust your gut instinct;
  5. People vanishing, lying and being generally weird to you are not your fault
  6. You are the prize - they should be trying to impress you
  7. If it's not fun, stop
  8. loo update is mandatory

I remember being so full of admiration for Kirsty when she was in a similar situation a couple of months back and she told him to get lost. You can be my role model here K! What is it with all these "returners"? My friend coming round tonight is a bloke so will have no time for yearnycrap and will be a safe person to look after my phone - good tip Flipper and glad you've made it onto the normal phone. Erm, congratulations.

Mum is good thanks OWW Just got back from there, her partner went out for lunch with his kids, he needed a break.

Do not reply. You have moved on Smile The fucker had his chance.

I am spending 4/5 nights a week now with Mr R&R almost living together Shock

Scotland round 2 on Friday Grin

48howdidthathappen · 13/07/2013 16:07

Bras are the work of the devil in this heat. Had to get that off my chest. Literally.

Kirstywirsty · 13/07/2013 16:08

Kirstywirsty · 13/07/2013 16:15

there is nothing nicer than coming home & whipping your bra off. Grin i'm on the roof terrace in my pants Shock Blush just texted nameless my first ever unsolicited boob-shot, as he is off to his parents for a week & should therefore have a photographic representation of my tits me to remember me by....

Kirstywirsty · 13/07/2013 16:25

Hope nameless's mum doesn't see his texts snape

Snapespeare · 13/07/2013 16:29

i think it's always useful to break the ice with ones prospective parents-in-law by them catching an eyeful of ones mammaries before a formal introduction... ('aah! you must be snape! cracking tits, well done, son!') Hmm Grin

scrazy · 13/07/2013 16:50

Snape Grin.

Have a great holiday Kirsty.

Kin, hugs back.

Flipper924 · 13/07/2013 16:53

As far as I'm aware, Kirsty, he is. I'm not interested in him as a dating prospect (so should probably move him off this thread), I was just annoyed that I was being treated as a potential shag, when I clearly wasn't one. I found that insulting.

Does that mean it will be over a month since you saw FoF?

I'm on the sofa (literally) in my bikini. I got too hot outside. I rarely have reason to celebrate being small of boob, but not having to wear constricting underwear in hot weather is a definite bonus.

OP posts:
Flipper924 · 13/07/2013 17:07

But it sounds like you're both keen to see each other again, still? This is a good sign, I reckon.

Kirstywirsty · 13/07/2013 17:12

Yes .. He seems like a decent bloke .. He is fit , successful sociable and has a great sense of humour ..

Afternoon all

I gave it online dating another shot and have been seeing someone for a few weeks. He ended coming to mine last night after a work do and while pissed asking if we can be exclusive. I said I would speak yo him when sobered up Grin

He was so embarrassed. Hes taking me to the cinema tonight. I'm happy and hes normal!

I actually found a normal. He lives a 10/15 minute walk from me as well and we have seen each other in our local pub a couple of times.

I haven't told anyone I'm seeing someone as it seems to fuck up when I do Grin

You lot are the only ones who know

Snapespeare · 13/07/2013 17:28

i really like being let in on secrets! i'm glad it's going well for you SP Grin

scrazy · 13/07/2013 17:29

SP normal sounds good to me.

JulietteMontague · 13/07/2013 17:32

Kin thank you for saying so and I happen to agree, Dutchie is lucky to have me Grin

Flipper good too see you've been upgraded, it's funny how something like that can really grate

Kirsty I have high hopes for you and FoF

Rose hello

Agree, bras are not to be worn in the heat. I am sitting here in a cotton pj shorts combo as the equivalent of a summer onesie.

ThisReallyIsNotSPNopeNotAtAll · 13/07/2013 17:35

I'm just grateful for normal Grin

Think this will be my last OD experience. If it doesn't work out so be it but I wont be ODing ever again. Its been an ordeal Grin

JulietteMontague · 13/07/2013 17:35

SP good to hear that Smile It's just between us thread folk and a couple of random extras

ThisReallyIsNotSPNopeNotAtAll · 13/07/2013 18:04

I wanted to tell someone but didn't want to tell anyone in RL.

I think it makes it easier no one knowing so I don't have anyone questioning or wanting to know details.

Once I know exactly whats happening then I will share. Hes told people about me but understands why I haven't

Newstart13 · 13/07/2013 20:04

Hey sp it's good to share and safe here...

Hope oww ok and hanging in there. Am sitting on phone a bit too...

Lots of happiness on the thread here too which is lovely.

Date was again friendly and chatty and fun but really not sure... 3 +hours went pretty quickly but life and kids and events will stop a 3rd date for a while.. We'll see.

KinNora · 13/07/2013 20:06

Soothing my distress at not being amongst the hot weather bra-less (that ain't ever gonna happen) by knocking back a homemade twinkle - cheers everybody.

lurkinglorna · 13/07/2013 20:39

braless here too (and same outfit i have been wearing for past 3 days)

glad i don't live with a hot fellah Grin
