    Like others have said SS - his loss :D.

    Difficult to word this without sounding like I love you...but...you are good looking and you are very good company. The man's a fool, pretty much end of.

    Right this isn't getting the garden cleared!

    Thanks Butti, it's ok just the norm for OD I guess, I'm not taking it personally although it has put me off arranging anything else.

    Ok, plan for today is a run, finishing off some work for college and tidying was thinking it was going to be a nsd but need yet more printer ink! Lovely sunny day here so might even manage to hang out the washing.

    I have to admit SS, that OD isn't a route that I would personally entertain - as much as I have heard success stories, I have a close friend who has started relationships through OD and it has turned out, on more that one occasion, they have been married.

    Obviously there are a few idiots out there, however I am equally certain the genuine ones do exist....I would just be happier knowing some history.

    As butti says, you are obviously very attractive, and have a great personality (as we can tell from here!), so the right man will enter your life:)

    The thing is Natty I never meet any men which is why I thought I'd give it a go. To be fair if you meet someone in real life you still can't tell if the story they are spinning is true either. Oh dear, I am sounding very cynical:o:rotfl::rotfl: I am sure there are some lovely single men out there somewhere - there are some lovely single women so must be possible!:D

    That is very, very true. Even if you meet a friend, of a friend, of a friend though at least you will have a smattering of history.

    Like you, I don't really tend to meet anyone - although I don't tend to know the signals either! Perhaps we both need to be 'gok -ed';)

    There are most definitely single men out there, I have been a single (and widowed) parent for so long now that I am completely out of the game. I think that you may be similar to me in that bringing up your son has been your sole focus for so long.....although from reading mamamags diary, I am putting in a cosmic order for a joiner:D

    Do any of us know the signals?
    The landlord hit me on Wednesday (That sounds bad doesn't it?) Not in a 'punch your lights out' kind of way but in a back of the hand sort of 'get away' swipe. This is the kind of signal I'm familiar with. Unfortunatly one of the other members of my team then said 'Did he hit you?' I just said Yes, silently praying she would shut up because I didn't want / didn't know how I would explain this!

    ... from reading mamamags diary, I am putting in a cosmic order for a
    joiner:D

    I will be having a joiner in my bedroom on Tuesday. :D *

    * 'having' as in fitting a wardrobe - you knew that didn't you.
