whitedoorbell · 18/04/2014 08:05

thats it. .. I think it's lovely. were you planning to wear that for dinner with him... what occasion did you have in mind for it?

jesy · 18/04/2014 08:05

Yes
I went to five different town to get it in my size lol

whitedoorbell · 18/04/2014 08:05

folk so glad you worked everything out. have an amazing time... you deserve it!

jesy · 18/04/2014 08:08

I'd originally wanted it for a meal in pub but I thought maybe a denim jacket over top

FolkGirl · 18/04/2014 08:11

jesy dress is lovely. I'd definitely wear that for what you're suggesting. It's really nice. Had my eye on it myself actually...

white Thank you. I can't tell you how terrified I am! Not even excited or looking forward to it at the moment... Grin He doesn't understand it. He'll fly to another country for the night just for a gig or something! For him, the world is a teeny tiny place. For me, it's huge and scary! Confused

FolkGirl · 18/04/2014 08:13

I'd wear it with a denim jacket over the top.

Can someone tell me I'm not going to need to pack tights and boots please... They're taking up far too much room in my bag...

jesy · 18/04/2014 08:17

Thanks guys x
I would tell you about boots ext but I always pack to much lol

SuperFlyHigh · 18/04/2014 08:51

Is it ok to message any men you're interested in? On Match Crapfinity but not on it much if you see what I mean. All I get are the emails to my personal inbox but I'm never on there. When I am on the site I get more interest.

May as well use it if I've paid for it.

FolkGirl · 18/04/2014 09:02

jesy that's what I'm trying not to do. The weather isn't going to be great - high teens rather than the low 20s forecast for the end of the week. So I'm convinced I'm going to be cold!

FolkGirl · 18/04/2014 09:04

SuperFly Why wouldn't you message a man you're interested in?

I sound daft but it's first time I've been to anything like this

FolkGirl · 18/04/2014 09:55

Thanks Jarlin Smile

I have looked at the temperature. Low 20s last week and when I get back, high teens when I'm there. 23/24 degrees is about as hot as I can compfortably go anyway - after that I tend to lie around complaining it's too hot! Grin

I think I'll be ok without tights and winter boots...

SuperFlyHigh · 18/04/2014 09:59

Folk just wanted to say have a great time when you go away! (HelloBoys here by the way).

Yes ok I will message the odd man I'm interested in.

As far as I know it Match is moreorless the same (men etc) as Match Affinity.

By the way I'm concerned what happened to dontcallme on match sounds fishy?

SuperFlyHigh · 18/04/2014 10:00

All of you have a great Easter whatever you're doing. Had a friend staying past few days so been busy...!

MadeMan · 18/04/2014 10:32

"I sometimes think I need counselling but have never looked into it "

I don't think you necessarily need counselling for lacking trust and feeling a bit insecure if you've been let down by previous partners Jarlin; quite normal to feel that way I would imagine.

SuperFlyHigh · 18/04/2014 11:31

So I wrote to a few guys on Match.... because you have to make the first move sometimes, right?!

And there's one who's YUM, just my cup of tea... exact same personality as Kent Lad (and star sign if I'm into that....!)

eek!

louby44 · 18/04/2014 12:01

Went out with some friends last night and ran Mr Tall's photo by them, they say he looks ok. I showed them his opening message and they too were impressed.

We're going walking tomorrow afternoon and then having a pub tea!

Out of curiosity how old is everyone on here & where are you from?

I'm 45 and live in North Staffordshire (I have 2 DS 14 & 11)

SuperFlyHigh · 18/04/2014 12:13

42 outskirts of south east london near Croydon if you know that area!

SuperFlyHigh · 18/04/2014 12:13

Your date tomorrow sounds nice, chilled and relaxed.

dontcallmehon22 · 18/04/2014 12:41

What happened to me on match that sounded fishy, super? All ok from my POV so far Smile.

Hormonalhell · 18/04/2014 14:07

I'm 42 and live in Leeds. Have 3 kids aged 14, 12 and 15 months Smile
