  • We're like a bunch of mother hens fussing over our little chick! Shows how many people are fond of Benben and want the best for her. And just want to know what happened next!
    If you have a talent, use it in every which way possible. Don't hoard it. Don't dole it out like a miser. Spend it lavishly like a millionaire intent on going broke.

    Thankyou all for being so sweet :D:D Random night again ...

    So I met him and it was lovely, big hug / kiss when I got there etc, he got me a drink and the first thing he said (after blatantly checking out my chest ;)), was "I'm so sorry about the text I sent you, I didn't really know what to say, I'm not vey good at these sorts of things, I don't really know what you're meant to do" :p Bless him, he was all a bit shy and awkward :p Anyway, that helped cos then we chatted on and on and on ...

    Had a really good time, just got on really well again, much more relaxed this time, but then at 9.50 he said he had to get going as he had to meet his sister at 6 to go to tescos this morning :cool: Hmm, not so good! Anyway, asked how I was getting home so I said I could probably still catch a bus at that time, he walked me to the bus stop but the last one had already gone (living in the sticks is not so great sometimes :)), he said he'd pay for a cab for me, I wouldn't let him, so I said I'd walk to my friends house (where ds was having a sleepover as I figured I could chat with her for a bit about it all before getting a cab home). He was insistent on walking me there (half an hour walk), so we chatted all the way there. Clearly I'd had enough to drink as I had stupidly high heels on but managed to walk the whole way there without noticing my feet were covered in blisters. Anyway, when we got there he asked if I was free at all next week as he'd like to see me again next week :j :j He said to call him and I said I didn't like to seem pushy and he said no, not at all, please ring me on tuesday or wednesday, I'd like to see you next week :D

    So, am a bit confused again, he says he's not interested, but surely that would suggest he might be?? :o

    Anyway, I ended up crashing over at my friends house in the end, and have just got home, so sorry for worrying you all, but I'm fine and he's still utterly yummy :D

  • Pleased you're home & happy!

    I too was worried but as I don't post very often, thought it might seem a bit crazy to voice my concerns!

    Anyway I hope you & DS get everything you would like for Christmas & the New Year, things have been tough (for a lot of us) this year but I draw inspiration from the way you cope!

    Best wishes to you, your DS, your family & all the readers of your 'diary' for the Festive Period & 2012!

    Love RCP x
