Dating Thread 206 - picking up tradesmen aswell as dates

[Dancerinthemoonlight]

The Rules:

1. The first rule about the dating thread is don't talk about it with people you're dating.
2. Develop a thick skin.
3. Do not invest emotionally too soon.
4. It's all BS until it actually happens.
5. Trust your gut instinct.
6. People vanishing, lying & being generally weird is not your fault.
7. Know your worth.
8. If it's not fun, stop.
9. Loo update is mandatory.

10. No dating the thread. 11. Treat others as you'd like to be treated 12. Any relationship you have that could get ruined by having a conversation about your feelings, standards and/or expectations wasn't really stable enough to begin with 13. The things you choose to ignore/ tolerate now are the reasons you will break up in the future 14. OLD can get very time consuming. Keep doing other activities you enjoy.

Optional: Please give your irons (potential dates you are talking to) nicknames like Mr Scottish. Initials are allowed (Mr S) when you are an item

thanks @Dancerinthemoonlight x

Is there a limit to the number of posts? Thanks for the new one!

Thanks @Dancerinthemoonlight

So I messaged Mr Confused last night, I had a few to drink, I thought I had pissed him off the other night but seems not as he replied today. Our chats do flow nicely so maybe he just likes chatting to me. If I was looking for no strings fwb thing then he would be top of my list.

I'm chatting to another one at the moment, not sure if it will get past the first few messages but will preservere.

Happy Birthday @Naimee87

@Shayelle2009 - good luck for your date tomorrow with Mr Shack - hope all goes well

@Isitreallyme77 i think you're being super strong here with this Mr Confused. I'm sure i'd get sucked into the FWB situation convincing myself i could change his mind...

@GaraMedouar thank you so much! The days flown by... Prosecco is on the menu for tonight!

Forgot to mention this MrElf that i am meeting later has never drank alcohol in his life or so he says, he hasn't ever been drunk. Not an issue per-say but i think he is the first person ever (if its true) that i'll have met that never touched a drop of alcohol...

Quickly checking in...

Naimee87 - Happy Birthday!!!

The chat is still going well with MrManager, I'm trying not to get ahead of myself with this one and don't intend on doing lots of prolonged chatting before meeting up this time. We had mentioned doing a video date this week, but I might just ask if he wants to meet up properly on Saturday instead. I'm not normally this forward, but think I need to take a more proactive approach this time!

Good luck to all with dates happening this week

Forgot to thank @Dancerinthemoonlight for the new thread 😘

@Naimee87 I think there's a 1000 post limit on a thread ❤️

Waa hoo!! Love a tradesman 😍😍🔥🔥

Thanks for the thread @Dancerinthemoonlight 💃🏻

Happy birthday @Naimee87, hope it's been a lovely day
Good luck with your dates @GaraMedouar and @Shayelle2009 - and anyone else I have missed ! these threads rattle along so quickly.
@DudeFromThatLondon, I rarely if ever try to make contact with someone that I have parted company with but Mr Cocky is in a different category because of the length and depth of our friendship. I sent another brief email this afternoon but no reply so he's either decided to blank me, which is unacceptable behaviour, or he's not in work for some reason. I hate uncertainty though and if he is blanking me what a sad and unnecessary end to a very special connection.

Yes, 1000 on any thread. Amazing we've filled it up again.

Thanks @GaraMedouar im actually really looking forward to tomorrow now and my nerves have gone I think it’s because he seems like a chilled and funny guy!! 🥰

Happy birthday @Naimee87 enjoy your prosecco, what a perfect evening for it 🥂

Talking of tradesmen, calm yourselves ladies, I've just had three plumbers in my kitchen!

Fingers crossed for you, @Shayelle. 😘😘😘

@VanGoghsDog- hope you've got everything sorted out drainwise ❤️

Flipping heck @VanGoghsDog it’s not your birthday you know 😉😁

@Naimee87 I think the thing is he knows what I'm after and I know what he's after so we have no expectations that either of us are going to change our minds. We have some great banter though.

They are coming back tomorrow to take the kitchen ceiling down.

Meanwhile, I have a drink with the decorator tonight to thank him for his help with this stuff which is outside his remit. Though I've told him to stick my kitchen ceiling on his schedule!

Thank you for the new thread @Dancerinthemoonlight. Not tons to report on my side, 2 dates with Mr Computer but not sure if its fizzled out as no 3rd date set in stone despite him saying we should do it, a couple of first dates with sexy Europeans but nothing but a fling there. Have had a couple of phone chats but either i find out they are anti vaxx or secretly married! One more iron to test out with a call this week but he's super smart and doesn't seem to be chomping at the bit for me. So essentially he is catnip to me.

Just checking in, thanks for the new thread @Dancerinthemoonlight and happy birthday @Naimee87

Not much to report for me. Things still going well with MrHair - we've just had our 2 month anniversary 😂 we were supposed to be going away for the weekend early July but borris has just put pay to that as the reason we were going will need to be postponed. Seeing him Wednesday evening and having another sleepover 😁

Hi guys checking in for new thread

I’m up to date 6 with mr lorry and he hasn’t blotted his copybook so far - he seems just as ace as he did to start with 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ today we went to the beach for a couple hours and did some swimming and had ice cream and it was all very chilled 😊😊

Fingers crossed it continues to go this well 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
