Jarlin I think that's exactly what you should do. Next time he brings it up. Ask. Don't say what about me. How long have you even dating him?

What's old dating?

Rummikub · 02/05/2014 21:58

Been dating not even dating.

Oh yes, get it now!

God, the spelling and grammar is just atrocious. None of the ones I'm chatting to can spell. Also punctuate sentences with endless xxx :)

Do men have a pre girlfriend category? I'm wondering whether that's what slow has done?

Oh no, be picky! Out of the 14 men I'm messaging, oh I ditched 2, so 12 men, I'm not really feeling drawn to any of them.

Maybe one or two. One is quite local. The other is an hour, but he looks hot. But way too many xxx in every sentence.

OLD dating goes totally against my very private nature.

I guess you'll come to a point with slow where it'll be too slow for you. Do his positives outweigh the negatives?

Yes what is it about the fish photos??

whitedoorbell · 02/05/2014 23:13

the pics that get me are the posed arty ones... usually in black and white. wtf is that all about?
I just want normal pics of normal people lol

whitedoorbell · 02/05/2014 23:21

in fact I would go so far as to say I prefer the mad wig and mankini humping a lamp post pic to the moody black and white catalogue shot!!! Grin

scarey I have no idea.

they say women are moody but men seem to blow hot and cold much worse. ..
one minute they are super keen and the next they disappear???

god knows what is going on.

They also seem reluctant to let you in which is very frustrating. sometimes think it would be easier to date a woman... would know where you are a bit then Grin

Super
I can imagine I'll be in all weekend.
I'm hoping Mr IT will be around Sunday as that would be fun, my friends are all married ( smug married as well) so busy
Was told recently I need to settle down wtf I'm not on my own by choice !

louby44 · 03/05/2014 08:32

I'm supposed to be meeting Mr Gasman tomorrow. We've been in daily contact since I spoke to him on the phone on Monday, just hello's, how was your day stuff!

Text him last night and no reply - I know he's read it as it's on WhatsApp. I hate all this....we still have to arrange a time/place.

Grrr men. I presume he didn't reply as he was on a date, which is fine!

It's no biggy if he doesn't get back to me!

whitedoorbell · 03/05/2014 08:40

louby how rude. are you seeing the other guy again.. sorry forgot his name. the one from the other day?

I am meeting baldy tomorrow night. .. cannot wait! we are having a "night in" Blush

jesy · 03/05/2014 08:44

Wha t s app can be a pain at times as you know they been online etc.

Mr IT flirty self again today which is nice , decided to prepare stuff in case he asks me over so then seem casual lol omg I get worse I do t want him thinking I'm making effort.
Tbh I sort of like this casual approach with past relationships it's been doing the cooking n cleaning within six weeks of dating lol

louby44 · 03/05/2014 10:08

I don't think I'm going to see the other guy again - he was a nurse. He doesn't drive and he was very 'children' focussed, which is fine but a lot of the talk was about his kids.

I just wasn't feeling it!

I'm chatting to a few others!! I'm going with the flow and not stressing about it at all.

Canihaveaslice · 03/05/2014 10:37

Ursula, that's the bit I dread, when your dating someone new it consumes you and then to gave that all go must be difficult. Hang in there though, it will soon pass.

Rummi, I had 100 messages in my first few days of old and out of them there were probably only 6 that I thought were ok. Even then just ok. The only one who I liked was the one I'm on date no5 with, mr nice. Even then as much as I think he's lovely and I like spending time with him I'm not sure if there's a future in it, but I'm just taking my time and trying to enjoy the moment instead of analysing the future

We met up last night at the last minute as neither of us had anything on. We just spent the night kissing and cuddling which was lovely. Tonight were having a night in and as each date has got more touchy feely iykwim then I'm expecting him to try something on tonight. Blush

Rummikub · 03/05/2014 11:42

Cani, how the heck did you filter them!

I've not put a picture on yet as I'm not serious about it at the moment.

Just chatting with those that can say more than hi, hey, hello.

louby44 · 03/05/2014 11:46

cani lucky you! So are you going to let him go all the way

I've just been chatting to a guy who lives in the next street to my parents (it's my old town) and I'll be moving back there once I sell my house.

He's asked me what I'm doing over the weekend and told him shopping, bowling with the kids, date tomorrow night but no firm arrangements made to definitely meet up, so he asked me would I meet him for a drink if my date doesn't pan out and said he doesn't mind being reserve...lol...he is actually more my type physically (tall) so I'm hoping MrGasman doesn't get in contact. Is that awful? And is that too soon to meet up?
