The dating thread 66

[LividofLondon]

Seeing as thread 65 is now full.

Nothing to report here. I'm still in almost daily contact with MrK but due to his work was not able to meet this weekend. We're hoping to arrange something for this coming weekend, so fingers crossed. I keep reminding myself that every-other weekend is fine, but it just seems such a long wait in between

Seeing as I'm trying to keep my cool and my plan was only for something casual, I'm still looking for more dates. But there's no-one I like online at the moment [sigh]

I hope to have someone by April as I have a big family wedding to attend. Its a posh affair and Im not taking some random....and Im certainly not taking my children's father. Weddings are quite good places to meet men....hmmmm

Benedict....yes....id do him

I'm still awake! Day 10 of chest infection, swollen glands, earache, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, off to Dr later to DEMAND antibiotics!!

I'm sitting here swooning over Mr Wales, looking at pix, copied our initial online convo's....PLEASE GOD, I hope he's for real, we'd make beautiful babies!

Slaps my face pace yourself woman, it was only ONE (24hour) date!!

Someone take my lust/horniness, my need for emotional connection, my "wear my heart on my sleeve" self and lock her away, grrrrrr

Sooooo I slapped myself and joined Tinder?!?!? Don't really know why, distraction???

Why can't we meet, agree we likey, delete online profiles, get married, have babies, live happily ever after all in 24 hours????? Would REALLY make my life easier......

FFS, I'm even THINKING OUTLOUD BABIES, that's Mr Wales fault though, as that was his answer when I asked him his 5 year plan now IM ALL BROODY, PSYCHO, HORNY and shit!!!!!!!!

According to a report on the radio this morning, today is meant to be the busiest day for OD with over one million people logging on. Activity is set to peak at 9pm tonight.
Think I might spend the day polishing up my profile!

Popping back in to say that I've got date no.3 tomorrow night with the lovely lovely guy from before Christmas - am ridiculously school girl about it, I'm stressing about what to wear and I'm really looking forward to it. We're going for dinner and cocktails

I hope 2014 is good to all of you. I don't post much but I read this thread often, and you've all helped me be much more positive.

Hotcrossbunny way to go, have fun

walks up to Matser and pokes her whilst at the docs ask for some anti hormone stuff

Kscience no antibiotics prescribed, apparently what I have now is analgesic headache, going cold turkey!!!

HotCross, YAY, I'm loving date #3, PLEASE keep us posted, I LOVE POSITIVE NEWS!!!

I can TOTALLY relate to school girl antics, just been texting with my HOTTY Mr Wales, swooooon!

I don't think I'm going to be able to keep my legs closed on date #2 and THAT fills me with DOOM!!! I need to keep them closed to protect myself, SIGH!!

DAMMIT KsCience You're very right, I should've asked for some hormone tablets, or can someone make me kitty kat padlock and throw away the key till after 10 dates or 12 weeks??? Next time you're coming with me!!

Ooh exciting hotcross!
Master - I dtd with geeky on date 2 and her we are umpteen dates later about to go to Paris!

Although - I feel sick as I texted him 20 minutes ago about our plans for tomorrow and no reply yet...

The dates sound exciting and Paris...wow!
After chatting on phone and texting regularly, bloke 4 who im really keen on, hasntreplied to my text from last night. Should i wait or send another?

Yes there are no set rules, even though people like to think there are lol! I followed the "rules" and the ex still silently dumped me after 4 months, wait and see!!!

Don't - we can call SWAT/FBI/CIA/Mi5/Scotlandyard if he hasn't replied by midnight, 20min is really no need to call them yet!!! Calm yourself Lovely.

Flora I'd text early evening when I know he's bound to be home/relaxed/eating dinner?!?!?

Flora - wait for him to reply....he shouldn't need prompting, God knows I've done that in the past and never ends well.

Nothing from Number 4 since yesterday, mightily slow going so am thinking, 'next'!

Ok...thanks. I will wait.
So...i want to hear about Paris....
Hansel....funny...i was thinking next too lol

Someone I've known socially for about 4 years and has shown interest but never acted on it (long story but he is one of these confirmed bachelor types, very cautious, def non player or womaniser type, no kids, never been married) has suggested we meet for lunch next week after we were out with a group last weekend.
I've agreed, not holding my breath that he will have the wherewithal to actually see it through but it's been this long I'm curious to see if it will actually happen!
We get on really well when we see each other, always a group situation so meeting alone would be a big step for him, he has said as much in so many words.
I've lost interest in him at various times for his lack of 'balls' but there is a genuineness about him that I do like.

Oh H&G that sounds promising! Some of them are just very slow off the mark, and is probably afraid of you rejecting him, IM CROSSING EVERYTHING!

I'm TRYING to keep my heart and emotions in check, chatting to a few people on tinder, good distraction, even though I've already had one asking for xrated pictures?

What REALLY REALLY baffles me, there's this thing called the internet, it has BILLIONS of free porn whatever your preferences are, so why ask some random chick and probably get ignore/rejected when you could just get it for FREE, no strings attached no drama???? If I wanted the physical aspect of that I'd just hire a prostitute, it's all rather simple in my simple mind!

I was meeting a woman a week Saturday for coffee, but she text earlier and told me she has met someone.

I replied with "no problem, it was lovely talking with you and you take care. We may talk again x"

But gutted, but the search continues, I've joined plenty of fish now, thought I'd branch out a little.

siquando - shame about that but good to branch out, I think pof is probably the best choice in a weird way as there are just so many on there, but take your trowel to weed out the oddballs, timewasters, imbeciles etc.

I've seen number 4 online today but no message - 'next'

Siquando, what H&G said, thankfully she has manners and didn't just disappear!

Siquando where did you meet her?? Just curious

So sorry Siquando.....maybe the next one is for you.
Hansel....sorry bout bloke 4. Maybe lucky escape for u.
My bloke not text yet and hes not been online but i suspect hes a bit melancholy as he has had a rough time last year.
I will text later.

I met her on OKCupid, conversation was great, humour was there bit of flirting, exchanged numbers, bit if texting.....it was great to see that being me still worked after 11 years in two relationships... Nice to know I still have it, so to speak

Im sure she doesnt know what she is missing Siqando. Shall i ook you up on pof lol?!
Dont....any news re Paris?

Hi all, haven't had a chance to catch up on recent posts on here for a day or so but I will do. Just popping in to say mr married at my workplace has txt AGAIN today despite me ignoring them all since I said don't txt again. Today it went like this " I'm working at your place again Monday, I hope we can still get on at work I meant what I said and I really like you blah blah blah" I did txt back only because I thought ok he's panicking how it might be at work between us because really I am in charge of him at work and I thought if I reply it might stop it once and for all if that's whats concerning him now. I said "of course I'm always professional, I don't like what you did but just pretend it never happened and be civil at work"

Anyway now he's professing all sorts of feelings for me, wants to see me if only as a friend. He really thinks we could have something. I've made it perfectly clear we can't. What is wrong with him, he's obsessed. HELP

Tell him that if he doesnt stop harrassing you you will take it further. What that means im not sure but it sounds good. In the meantime as soon as you see a text from him, delete it withput reading it. He will soon het the message. At work, as you say, remain professional.
Hope it works out. In the meantime time to seek an available man who takes your fancy.... :0)

In what capacity does he sometimes work at your place, Santa? Could you tell him to leave you alone otherwise you'll have to get HR involved?
