Dating thread 77

[neiljames77]

Just got in from my holiday and saw that 76 was full.

I wouldn't bring it up on a first date single. But if things go well, hopefully later on. It's a plus point that he's been honest.

Congratulations bigbird. I need to get around to sorting my divorce.

Mr Teacher texted again. He texts just the right amount.

Single Yes - I think I will do something. Not sure if it will be a party or just me having a quiet glass of champagne just yet...

I was in the same position - I was deliberately holding off filing because we have actually got on a bit better now we are not together. However he asked me to progress when he met someone else. It's been surprisingly easy - to the extent of almost 'missing' some drama or fanfare to mark a significant change in my life...

I do want to get round to sorting it out, definitely. Have you seen those 'divorce cakes' you can get?!

Please the god of all that is dating....let Mr Teacher be as gorgeous as he is nice.

I'm looking forward to seeing how thing go with Mr Teacher dont. Is your date tomorrow or Friday?

I will hold off talking about it with him, I had a feeling it might be a bit inappropriate. He's been very sweet, saying how attractive he finds me etc. Although I was on POF earlier. Not looking at profiles or messaging anyone, just out of habit and he popped up jokingly asking if I'd had any more date requests. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt over that. I'm sure he was probably browsing himself but I'm not actually bothered if he is. Probably shows that I'm not that into meeting someone.

I think my divorce should be straight forward (I hope). Short marriage so I've already walked away from any assets on the initial advice of a solicitor. I'm ok about that anyway. H initially said he wanted a divorce but hasn't mentioned it since and I have a feeling he will be obstructive if he thinks it's because I've met someone .

Oh totally forgot. Today, a man who styles himself 'stunning man' got aggrieved at the fact that I'd ignored three of his salutations on POF. He messaged once more with the charming prediction: 'U gonna be single the rest of your life.'
I replied: 'When I look at the alternatives, that doesn't seem such an unappealing prospect.'

I've not seen the cakes - will have a google . I'm keeping everything crossed for you that Mr Teacher turns out to be a good one .

Oh it's Friday. He's 6'3, so that increases the chance I'll fancy him by approx 60 %.

That sounds sensible, Single.

What an idiot, dont. Hope you corrected his grammar as well!!

Clearly another charmer then dont .

This one tomorrow is 6ft8 . I don't know how to put that into chance percentages .

Wow Single. Better wear your heels in case you want a snog! My 6'3 ex used to give me neck ache, so 6'8 would be painful!

Great response Dontca! :)

He was a total idiot. The fact that he was half naked in his pic, covered in some kind of oily substance and called himself stunning should have made him irresistible to all of womankind I suppose, so my rebuttal caused him understandable anguish. I can find it in my heart to forgive.

I want to FB-Style 'like' your riposte don't

single if he he's nice but just not your type, pass him my way. Would love to have to reach up to someone for a change!!

I'm tall myself - 6ft4 in heels so it shouldn't be too bad. I've already told him how excited I am to be able to wear heels on a date as all the others so far have been short arses .

Also love the response you gave. I'm stealing it for if I ever unhide my profile .

Bigbird. I'll PM you his number if it doesn't work out.

Perfect height then Single. I love being able to wear my heels on a date.

These POF 'charmers' better not tangle with me in future or I'll give them what for

folk just catching up on the thread!! I'm amazed, I truly am. Like many have said before, this relationship has no future. What a bummer! Hope you're ok!!

Yes, Mr Saucy has sent pictures of his very erect member! I have found it very amusing and titilating!! He obviously has no intention of dating and is a player I imagine. He's sent me very flirtatious and erotic messages. I've responded likewise. It's kept me amused for a couple of days and now I'm bored! I don't want a FB, I want a bloke who can stimulate my mind!!

I'm now talking to Mr Joiner via Tinder who is very, very funny!

I am laughing at Mr Saucy, louby. Sounds fun.

I need to do some SERIOUS work on my self esteem. I'm feeling a bit crap.

Hi

I'm oddly fine. Well, I'm not. I feel like I want to wrap myself up in a duvet and hide. I'm not sad/upset though. I suspect that will come. I'm still just stunned!

He's emailed a couple of times this evening but I've been out to dinner with a friend so I haven't answered.

In order to answer some questions:

There have been couple of things previously. But nothing major. So, he didn't want to go to a party we'd been invited to, but then changed his mind said he would go if it was important to me. I said it was. He went. He brought that up. And yes, it's he reason he didn't meet my brother. I've met his family though!

I suppose the reason it's not come up before is that we always spend the time just the two of us and that's what he wants it to be like. It would seem there's only an issue when other people are involved.

I don't understand.

I can't believe men actually send those pictures! That's shocking

Knitted how did your date go last night?

Single hope mr teacher is nice later on.

Bigbird that's good to hear. I sent off
my application for my decree nisi last week. Just hoping judge agrees. Unreasonable behaviour on ex part but undefended and amicable ironically!

Told my dcs mr pof is my 'boyfriend' feels so silly saying that at 37. Both giggled and seem fine now I can stop worrying about being seen out without them knowing. I just hope I'm a good judge of character and not got him all wrong!

Oh and folk I'm still speechless. Any more thoughts on what you want to do this weekend about going away?

I don't know how someone can think a relationship exists just between two people. He does seem very narrow minded .

Jarlin how goes things with you and slow? Any chance to talk?

Minime

Giggly I wouldn't worry too much about a card. Like u say the thing is about dating, and I don't know how old u are, but at say 37 (me) is we all come with at least one past! I still have all my wedding photos and they aren't on display but are in cupboards and things. I also have a valentines card I got from a particular boyfriend when I was 13 and I will never part with it. Ever. It means too much and I was only 13! I hate to think mr pof has a past but I know he does and try not to compare myself to them. Although it's not always easy.

Maybe that is it. I am 27 and he is 42 and I haven't had many serious long term relationships. He has done the marriage and living with people thing before.

Bless you giggly. I'd speak to him if it bothers u. Is he open about past relationships? Mr pof has 2 ex wives! When I tell people in real life the reaction is always the same! But then I've lived with two people too, but was only married to one of them. Try and think the present is where you are now and you've chosen to spend it together and try not to think too much about the past.

Mini My gut feeling is that I don't want to go.

I don't know. I know he's met previous girlfriends' friends/family because he's told me.

I just don't get it.
