I didn't want to hurt his feelings because he has learning difficulties but I really don't want to go on this date. I don't know what to do.
The reason I don't have a crush on him isn't because he has learning difficulties or anything, He's just not my type.

Good job he did'nt ask you to marry him:D Only other way is to say you can't go because you forgot you already had a prior engagement0 -
Off topic, as my couple of other previous posts have been; but I'm looking for some help and advice.
I know after 35 years of going through depression I should be an expert but I'm not.
Each time seems to get worse than the last and this present one seems to be getting loads more stuff piled on top.
What I would like to know is how do you all cope with the day to day stuff?
I struggle to get out of bed and then to get showered and dressed, all I want to do is sleep and that's what I did yesterday. My weight is increasing at an alarming rate, my house looks like an episode of How Clean Is Your House? and when the door bell rings I'm not sure if I want it to be Kim and Aggie or not.
I don't work and am struggling to find anything suitable to apply for owing not only to my depression but also to my lower back problem. I constantly worry about money though I'm MF and always have been and also have savings. I know that I am really lucky regarding this but it did take lots of hard work.
My relationships with people are getting quite strained, especially my OH, my family and what few friends I have left - well one friend.
Any suggestions however small or silly they may seem please impart them, I need to start living my life a little.

I've been saying that everytime he's asked me.lol.
I think I'll just text him to say that I think he's a cool guy but I'm not really interested in him in that way....and then turn my phone off.lol.

I do things like that too Anni, then panic cause I hate hurting anyone. I think you should text him and say, you're really sorry but... and make something up like you're not ready for a relationship or you're going out with someone else, or you forgot you have something on that night or say you're just not feeling too great just now (just watch the excuses that still leave it open and follow it up so he knows you really aren't going to go out with him)
It doesn't matter how you get out of it, just make sure he knows there is no chance in the future. That way you are doing the right thing and have done the best you can not to hurt him. Let us know how it goes.
How was mind today?

I picked up my new glasses today. They're blue.
Also having my eyebrows waxed on Thursday. I've never had them shaped properly or anything. One of my friends used to tweeze them but her eyebrows are so thin and I was worried mine would end up like that.lol.
Okay. A question for the ladies. How much does it hurt?
