Just curious! My attraction to my dp was mostly because I thought he was a sexy bloke and a nice guy. 8 years later I still fancy him, although not in the same quick get your knickers off way and he still is a nice bloke but OMG he doesnt half get on my nerves sometimes...obviously I didnt see those things at first though...how about you?

nailpolish · 11/10/2004 15:41

My partner has very strong looking hands, blunt fingers with HUGE veins running over the top of his hand to his wrists..sounds strange but it was the hands that did it for me

suzywong · 11/10/2004 15:42

scale of 1 to 10?

suzywong · 11/10/2004 15:43

titter at veins!
(it's way after the watershed down here)

nailpolish · 11/10/2004 15:43

think robbie in his freedom video (thats what he looked like at school)

Def SOH, his popularity with everyone - he's one of those charmers that gets away with anything. We were friends for a good while first and we used to spend 4 hours on the phone!

I didn't fancy him 'at first sight' - that grew as I got to know him, but like others have said, he fancied the pants off me from the first time he saw me (who wouldn't !). We met at work.

I've known him 8 years, been married for 5, got 3 ds's - he's naturally a lazy git but is actually a great father and husband and I still love him more than ever. We are lucky that even when we get annoyed with each other, we can talk about it sensibly and sort it out without it going on for days. We never 'don't talk' for a long period of time.

SOH and fantastic bedroom skills (can I say that?)

nailpolish · 11/10/2004 15:47

same here at veins but im new so not as brave as suzy

Heathcliffscathy · 11/10/2004 15:57

lust at first sight. he was gorgeous in a smoldering broody way then and still is. he is super bright and incredibly sharp. best thing about him is he has no idea how sexy he is. 7 years on, he still makes me weak at the knees. bloody annoying tho too. always has his head in a newspaper/book ditto mrsdoolittle.

sorry for the gagathon, but am still nuts about him...and when i see/hear him playing with ds, just makes me love him more...

suzywong · 11/10/2004 15:57

steady on there!

Heathcliffscathy · 11/10/2004 16:01

sorry

suzywong · 11/10/2004 16:02

just [envy}

Envy
spacemonkey · 11/10/2004 16:02

Heathcliffscathy · 11/10/2004 16:03

oh god i was going to post something in reply sm that was really rude...i'm ing at the thought

suzywong · 11/10/2004 16:04

no no please do, it was a clumsy attempt to draw out your bedroom secrets, wasn't it SM?
