smeaton Least you know where you stand now. Better to get that out the way. She sounds delightful. I haven't had any guys disappear once I mention kids. It doesn't seem to be an issue with anyone I speak with. I think its better when someone has children of their own as they are more understanding about time and changes of plans etc. Lucky escape I'd say. I would be happy if I met a guy who is clearly dedicated to their children. I echo what love said.
Val No, no, no. I am all for a bit of banter, but the foreigner comment would put me right off.
esk1mo perhaps he is a bit paranoid if he isn't feeling well that he wouldn't perform. He sounds quite sweet and honest (but I am way too trusting in believing what people say).
vet I am already invested in the consultant you saw. I think you should have some fun, keep busy and him as the longer game option. Like Mr A ;)
Tom sorry to hear youve been ghosted and love bombed. I guess you will just have your eyes a little bit more open now, and be more aware and reign it in, or pre empt the ghosting a bit. I know a few months ago if people disappeared or love bombed me I would be a bit more upset by it. If I see it coming I just shrug and think, your loss!
So been a bit of a crazy day for being messaged today, i am seem to be on whatts app all the time (no kids this weekend). I had a lovely meal with friends last night, nothing planned tonight and Mr 25 is over tomorrow, even though he knows he needs to be up at 5am. I am quite keen, I am sure MB's will get served and I intend to just have fun with him. Eyes and mind open, I feel I can be totally honest with him and don't feel nervous at all (maybe I will tomorrow).
Mr Also 25: he is starting to bore me a bit, his age is showing and he seems a bit in need of validation. He is a bright guy, hot as hell and very polite. But I am not feeling it so much with him.
Mr Italian just keeps telling me he misses me. We had a chat yesterday about him knowing I am chatting and seeing other people. I said I would like to see him again, but in all honesty how could he see it working. I couldn't be exclusive and only see him a few days every 3 months. It wouldn't work. But he is lovely a shame really.
Mr French and I have chatted more today, he is a bit of a suprise. Initially I thought he was a typical surfer/ traveler dude. But he is also a very good artist, works hard in a corporate type arena, he is very witty and has travelled to places I have never heard of. If he was local, i would have jumped at the chance of meeting him tonight.
And I have a new contender, he seems like he could be more suited to an actual relationship from what he has said. He is nicely complimentary, seems honest and upfront and a little bit jaded with tinder. Lets call him Mr Police. Yep he's a policeman and ex service man, but thinking of training as a nurse. Another onion (lots of layers).
I am going to suspend my tinder account for a while, as I have 7 options which would turn into meetings I am sure. I hope you don't think I am gloating...... 
, i am of course aware they could all disappear. I need to work out my time, and its a bit all consuming at the moment.
Oh and I saw my electrician at the gym, giving me the eye. He is growing on me a little bit, he is very sweet and hot.
I plan to have a fun next 6 months then calm myself down!
Have a good Saturday everyone.
