Well, I've been here before with a date lined up and it all fell through when he decided to have a head injury and need urgent hospital treatment (allegedly) so until it actually happens, he ain't getting a name for the Mothership!

He was very direct and to the point, which was refreshing. We shall see what the weekend brings.

Who’s this guy? This is not the one who wanted to watch the football last time?

So I had a rare Friday off work and went to visit MrFootball…..

Things got very steamy and we ended up DTD, that certainly blew away the cobwebs 🤣

he was very good with his hands and mouth and sorted me out before getting his own - blushing just thinking about it tbh!

then he made me a cup of tea and a bacon sandwich, 10/10 I’d say 👏🏻

Bloody good work all round.
I need some of this in my life!!

Mila14 · 09/12/2022 21:02

Fifthie… I find it hard to believe in head injuries when there’s World Cup knock out stages and your country is still on the fray… call me cynical

I wasn’t seeing MrEx today as I knew it’s major footie…he has decided to make a visit later…proper booty call 😂😂
I think if England wins tomorrow we will also have another triumphant night and Sunday day together…If England loses…erm…we might meet on Sunday morning

5thWisdom · 09/12/2022 21:03

@Mila14 it's one of my first Bumble matches today. Italian, 6 ft 9, ex rugby player. We were chatting and he asked to meet. So we're meeting on Sunday morning for a coffee.

Mollymolloy · 09/12/2022 21:12

Great result @OLDstolemybrain !!! When are you seeing Mr Football again?

I've seen it a few times. It fascinates me... Re the sizes - I guess these are the ones that wants to go on this kind of show! You need to be an exhibitionist (apologies if anyone here has been on!). I mean, how to you rock up to work the next day when you've been seen in your birthday suit (ans been "examined") on national telly?

Enjoy your evening - hope you have a lovely time! and just for you, I hope England win ☺️

NoDatingForOldMen · 09/12/2022 22:32

I’ve never seen it before, was going through the TV channels and some women was looking at 5 guy’s in coloured boxes, going “oh I like his penis “, and “this one is lovely penis” etc.

and the girls were in the boxes some bloke was going around saying “and This is a lovely vagina “ , “ very neat Vagina “ etc.

never seen it before, but at the end, neither couple had a second date,
as you say, birthdate suit on the telly!

confuseddotcom22 · 09/12/2022 22:40

@NoDatingForOldMen Yeah, that's when I feel very prude - they talk about penises and vaginas as if they're pieces of garment. On telly.

Did you seen an episode when one of the men decide to show off their penis by doing the helicopter or similar? That when I go 😱

NoDatingForOldMen · 09/12/2022 23:14

@confuseddotcom22 no, I’m a naked virgin, never seen it before!
helicopter penis indeed 😂

OnceRuralNowUrbanbliss · 10/12/2022 11:21

The Boxer is 6'9" @5thWisdom ?!???!?????

Woah. That is tall.

I'm on the train heading towards MrCars and our first overnighter in a hotel together. He sent me a text this morning saying he was looking forward to some 'serious snuggling' which helped my nerves.

Tourist attraction first, a meal booked in a fancy restaurant and prosecco/gin packed.

This is date #6 having matched in early Nov and no idea how it will go. Hopefully fabulously. Will report back.

Naked Attraction helped me get body confident and lose all inhibitions - we come in such a vast range of sizes and shapes and everyone finds different things attractive.

OMG @OLDstolemybrain that's quite some update!

Wowzers and fantastic!!! Good job your period didn't stop play.

How long had it been since you were 'with' someone else?

Have textual contacts been maintained since and looking forward to more of the same.

OP posts:
OnceRuralNowUrbanbliss · 10/12/2022 11:33

Oh sorry @5thWisdom I'm out of touch. Mr Rugby is 6'9 and not historical Boxer. Soz.

OnceRuralNowUrbanbliss · 10/12/2022 11:40

Oh and I thought to update the Mship on a funny thing when I visited MrCars last weekend....

Remember my Q about what are we calling male appendages in a boudoir setting and @NoDatingForOldMen said if anyone used the word 'willy' it would make his shrivel up instantly

Well funny moment in kitchen last week we were cooking together and I said where to find something and MrC said 'it's in the cupboard here right in front of my willy'

Made me smile as it was my preferred word before but thought it not sexy/manly enough which is why I did a poll here.

OnceRuralNowUrbanbliss · 10/12/2022 11:45

@5thWisdom that geographical getting stuck issue with Tinder used to drive me mad as could work out how to resolve it.
Nowadays I just don't open the app when travelling so it doesn't get stuck. I never worked out how to resolve it.

Luckily Mother Nature was kind to me! Was a bit nerve wracking thinking the tail end would tear its head again but all good

I haven’t had sex for about 2 years and even before that Ex was very selfish so good sex has been a while!

Contact has been maintained since, nothing has changed. He’s coming here tomorrow while DC are at their Nanas to help me get Xmas stuff out the loft. Hoping for round 2!

Yes, Mr Boxer is firmly in the bin.

Not giving the new tall one a name yet!

OnceRuralNowUrbanbliss · 10/12/2022 11:59

Oh wow @OLDstolemybrain same sort of time cobwebs have been collecting as me then (although I did have a one off wanton night with a very hot iron a couple of months ago so that freshened up my skills)

OP posts:

Well I've missed loads.

With regards to the the 'being an option' there's a guy I matched with ages ago. Great sexting. Want to meet. But he lives about four hours away.

So yesterday I said was there no one near him and he said - not yet. Then when I asked him how he'd feel if I said I'd met someone and he said he'd be happy.

Then, and this really stung, I mean we've had some very steamy sexting sessions - he said - after all why would it bother me we haven't even met 🤷‍♀️

I lost my rag. And pointed him towards sex lines where he could get what he wanted from me until his nearby person showed up. I said I wasn't going to be his wank bank.

His reply? Two laughing emojis. Like fuck off.

Now the reason I'm asking this is I had a date with MrG and it was lovely and we've messaged all the time. We've had a bit of a tough time, me and my son (bless him) this week so I had to cancel another date. But suddenly, out of nowhere, came (literally) the best phone sex ever.

So. MrG lives near me. Is a nice person. Makes me happy and secure. But I have only met him in real life once. Do I come off the apps?

Interesting about Bumble. I hate it with a passion. My latest match was an American in the country for business wanting to spank me. I had a free months worth of premium. The others I've chatted to on there are so flat and there's absolutely no chemistry.

I'm thinking I'll come off it till New Year, stick with MrG and have a good Christmas.
