Will the new job be more money or just better hours? I did read at the time but I'm using my phone and can't easily go back and check. But it's fantastic anyway.
Yeah she just is very cold, she was off work the week we had date two which was last week and then from then she has being distant. We went out on the tuesday and it went well but since the messages texts etc dried up
yes she is from teeside i am not though.
I just get the feeling one person wants this more than the other. She has being on a course this weekend at work at work and was meant to be back yesterday now its today but not til later on after 4pm. I said look would you like to pop through or i could pop through yours etc i am off til tuesday night etc then nadda.

Now I don't know if you're from Teeside or that's just where the lassie hails from, but can you get cheap haircuts from the trainees at the college? And gym membership... never cheapbut I don't know you so I don't know how important it is to you. Seeing there are protein shakes, I'm guessing it matters a lot.
Train tickets - are you booking 3 months ahead to get the lowest prices? Or is there a coach you could get instead?
I though I was good at cheap food but with baked potatoes and porridge oats I can't improve much on what you've got. Have you tried overnight oats for variety? You can flavour them with all sorts of stuff (banana, carrot, sultanas, jam, fruit etc.).
Keep up the good work,
Cherry
Hi Cherry its essential to me re the gym i have suffered really severe the last few years with mental health issues i manage it by working out and taking no meds. I train now at the cheapest one in the area thats not full of idiots if you get me.
coach no newcastle too rochester by coach is 8-9 hours i cant do it i have in the past and its too long long a journey. As i have to do it there and back. Train tickets yes i buy them massively in advance and i go through cashback sites when i get them which my nectar card is linked too xx
diet wise i am dead strict i eat a lot of white chicken, tuna, white fish, oats i eat on there own with skimmed milk or skyr with honey and dried sultanas. I dont ever buy the porridge sachets they are loaded with too much sugar.Cashback Earnings YTD £46.04 Survey Earnings YTD £182.66

Scott, congratulations on the job, great news! I think if a woman/man goes cold/quiet then move on. They aren't interested and I just wouldn't waste my time.0

I am feeling absolutely dire today, the easter weekend was horrible for me i have started smoking again as i felt really really like popping a couple of anti depressants my mood was so up and down. Its hard to describe but from being on a high so much after getting the new job at work to getting well played by the teeside lass i have had enough.
Money wise all is good i have received a contract payout at work, and my missing unsocials money has arrived the downside paying enough tax to sink a battle ship 960pounds in tax and niCashback Earnings YTD £46.04 Survey Earnings YTD £182.66

Hi Scott
Sorry you are feeling so rubbish at the moment and the holiday weekend was not an enjoyable time for you.
It is a bit odd what went on with Teeside Lass but you did only have a couple of dates and maybe she has stuff going on that means it wasn't right for her.
Have you got any other coping mechanisms that would see you being able to get off the fags again while staying off the AD meds? You are into keeping fit so you know smoking isn't right and is a bad example to your son. Easy for me to say I know, an ex smoker myself.
I hope you pick yourself up soon,concentrate on the new job for now and the dating scene may come right in the future.MFIT -T5 #420 -
Scott can totally relate to the crap times mood wise and taking up smoking again. Not doing too well myself and it's been tough times. I feel like I'm off the radar.
I had an overstimulating bank holiday weekend (no choice of my own) and it's flattened me.
Congratulations on the job front. And forget the girl, what's the point if they blow hot and cold. Less of the drama. You deserve better.Chandelier.

Well thats me done till wednesday now, i have being swimming twice this week and too the gym once. Re smoking i was back upto 10-15 pd i have cut that by two thirds i am not ready to jack in just yet i know the health implications but its keeping me calm.
I have my official start date for my new job 18th of may and in my current job i have 14 shifts to do lol.
I dont know re the teeside lass she cancelled on me twice over the bank hols and then nothing no texts no nothing. I was fuming but never said anything but i bought loads of nice stuff for her coming over ie a thorntons easter egg, wine too go with tea and i had bought stuff to prep for a nice meal. etc etc
As weird as it sounds my coping mechanism is exercise but i have being shattered after work so havent trained loadsCashback Earnings YTD £46.04 Survey Earnings YTD £182.66
