pringle do your research on this local man who you went to school with!
I have a story happened this spring, was on OLD noticed one man lived in the next area to me... He seemed interesting and was interested in me so I thought why not and we met up. I moved back to the area where I was brought up about ooh 15 years ago to buy a flat and he bought a flat nearby too. Our parents still live in the same area, mine 10 minutes away his same distance. Anyway it turned out he knew me, had been in my childhood house and was the younger brother of a school friend of my brother. This school friend knows me and has the reputation of being a bit of a Casanova. He also apparently put down and stole girlfriends from his younger brother.
So anyway I dated him, found out he wrote poetry which was online and then found out he had depressive conditions now managed. Fine but then also found out he'd been in a disciplinary at work which he was fighting and the stress and repercussions of that spilled into our lives... We had sex and that wasn't great but had it not been for the other problems I would have maybe given it a go. Strange things like I went to his house for dinner twice he cooked spaghetti with a meat sauce but each time added chilli which I don't like and told him about, first time fine I ate it, second time I told him don't do it like that as I can't eat it but he did it anyway (prepared). So I dumped him and he got nasty with me finally calling me drunkenly by his twin sister's name in a text and saying all women were the same, shallow etc! Dodged a bullet there!
So I got a brief text off Cutie saying he'd had friends staying all weekend and he'd been a tourist and was very tired. This was last night. When should I text him again or should I wait for him to text me.
Widower texted me last night to say busy day for him today with 2 school runs, working late to make up his hours today, meetings at his workplace and his MILs birthday today. But I need to speak to him re date or not!
Bant your date stories are funny. The toilet one is always awkward sometimes you can get round it by explaining but sometimes not. The mad woman you dodged a bullet.
I had an awful date years ago with someone I had thought I'd get on with, we met, seemed to click then he asked me what I liked etc. so I told him then brief history of past life (clubbing etc), he immediately looked at me like I was something the dog had brought in and went cold on me. I recall feeling really bad as though my life was somewhat seedy (it wasn't!) he even saw me on my bus!!! Strange.
Had a few years back at pre Christmas drinks in a bar, my brother was a photographer and invited a male model friend along and another photographer friend and one of his normal mates with my friends who were there. The male model started to chat me up, I was sort of thinking "you're very good looking so I'm going to be a bit wary" but I was friendly and he was angling for a date... Then he mentioned all his stunning, rich ex girlfriends, where they lived, where he'd taken them home to a huge house with tennis courts etc... I wasn't sure if he was trying to impress me or not but it put me right off! Next time I saw him was the following spring on his birthday when I was out with my brother and a few other friends and he was a bit drunk in a pub on Clapham Common. He still tried to chat me up then but I don't do guys when they're drunk.
