Not actually a relationship

Well, was supposed to have my first date yesterday but a catalogue of errors and a substantial intake of alcohol rather meant it never started. And we've actually had an argument before we've even been out somewhere - impressive? I met this bloke last w/end in Brighton and rather liked him, I think. He asked for my number and was phoning rather a lot during the week and asking if we could meet up. I felt ridiculous, kept cutting him off rather abruptly and also said what if we met up and I didn't like him. He was rather perplexed as he said but we've already met and I said yes, but I can't really remember. I've also mentioned the fact that my h and I MAY reconcile. Anyway he called on Wednesday and wanted to call back that evening to arrange the Thursday but I told him not to as I was having an early night. Can't remember if he was going to call me/vice versa. I don't think he called and I got plastered with my head of design and ended up in a bit of a mess - ie, v v v drunk and incoherent. I left quite a few messages - apparently on the wrong phone telling him what I thought of him. I got through very late and he said he'c call me back when he got home which he did. I asked him to call later as I was busy. He didn't. I've sent a text saying hell. If you've got this far and haven't died of boredom any advice??

A text saying hello, I mean but I've never sent one before and am not sure where it's gone. I think he may think I'm psychotic.

If you are interested, give him a call asking him whether he received your text as it was the first one you have sent. If you are not interested (and you don't really sound that bothered) I would leave it - if he rings again just be honest and tell him the truth.

The only thing I can think of to do if you want to pursue it is to phone him and say something like, we've got ourselves into a bit of a mess with misunderstandings and so on...what do you say we start again from the beginning?

Just ring him up, tell him to get his arse round tonight and bang you senseless, you clearly bordering on insanity and hysteria and it could quite possibly be down to your sexual frustration.

Thanks, FF, how far down the wine box are you?

I would ask for advice re phone sex but believe FF may get banned again.

I don't think I can, Beetie - would you do it for me? Your voice is much sexier. I can't ask Orville.

Right heres what you do, trust me i'm very good at long lasting relationships.
First of all send him texts costantly saying you love him, you've never felt like this before, and if he leaves you your world will fall apart.
Secondly send him an email with a link to this thread.
Thirdly turn up at his work tonight crying.

I knew you'd know what to do, FF. How about the constant foul-mouthed tirades at 3am in the morning - you forgot that one.

I think I'll need to call someone tonight - is it just there? Am very stuck in the dark ages. Sent my first text today - but could only write hello as can't do spaces or get the letters I want.
