    Hope the date goes well, I can't be bothered at the moment meeting anyone off the online dating sites, there is no one I like the look of or seem to have anything in common with.

    So the dates off .... :(:(
    He sent me a text tonight to say he feels guilty, doesn't want to treat me/her that way, isn't that kinda guy and isn't fair to any of us ... have texted back, am waiting for a reply ....

    I got the text while out shopping and ended up getting 2 tops in Gaps sale for £18 and then £78 of lingerie in M&S reduced to £10 altogether :T Men eh :cool:

    Oh BB, what a shame, but at least he's being honest and decent, he obviously realised he liked you and knew he could end up cheating.

    Hope the date for sunday goes well.

  • That's a shame BenBen, but I agree with tigzem, you wouldn't want someone who would cheat on you. Hope the new date goes well

    Yep, you're both right, but the annoying bit is that we got on so well!! And that he obviously is a decent bloke because he is feeling so guilty about the idea of it lol :o

    The new date is just to get out there really, he looks cute but tbh we have only chatted for an hour or so, so am not sure how it will go. He is new to internet dating so is dead nervous lol ... Will only be a quick coffee at lunchtime so I can get back to collect ds, but hey, you never know, could be the start of something ;)

    Also have a night out planned tomorrow night with a girly mate, so will be looking out for who's out and about tomorrow too :D

    Morning all, the sun is shining and it looks like being a lovely day :)
    My plans now today aren't very exciting; my aunt who looks after my grandad has gone away for the weekend, so I'm looking after him, which means several visits in and out of his as he's not very well again this week ... my sister is also not well today and she was meant to be looking after dad while mum went out, so I'm guessing I'll be round there a fair chunk of today too ... I am out tonight with a friend, so at least thats something to look forward to ;)

    Suppose I really should get up soon, am being incredibly lazy this morning :o

    Hope today is not too tiring for you, and hurrah for getting right back out there :D

    Back from visiting various relatives, the flat is pretty tidy, I need to do a bit of food shopping in the morning before I go for coffee with new guy still.

    Lots of texts / emails backwards and forwards again from original coffee guy, I genuinely think he really likes me but likes her too and is a bit confused lol ... we'll see, if something happens then great, if not then thats fine too ;)

    Time now for shred, didn't do any yesterday so I do need to get back to it, then its bathtime before I go out tonight :D
