Prick

Wasn't just one story either was a few. All watched.

I hope you realise what you have achieved here.
You are bringing together a group of women that have been a great support to each other.
Beckham might have been a disaster, but you are going to get so much more from all this

Beckham I hope that it does happen on the 18th. Need to put the world to rights with people who know the situations without having to explain it all

@Thank(space)you hopefully you see the responses here in the well intentioned way that they are meant. Its just another perspective and hopefully its helped to put things into context and see things from another angle. | know you asked for advice but I think that you have had enough feedback on the situation now.

@Jmx I have not been on Hinge - is that the one that the women make the first move on? I feel like I just want to meet someone without putting any time or effort in but thats just not going to happen!

I was never ever able to imagine myself getting married! At least i haven't let myself down. I don't fancy being a geriatric bride now

I often think that some people are destined to be on their own and I think I am one of those.

I think I’m with you there, it’s not such a bad place to be I’ve seen what happens when people settle for the sake of it- expensive divorces

I managed a reply! I know, I know I bet he wishes he could get a word in edgeways

 

[HelloStereo]

@Bettyboo2021 I saw your post in the last thread, I'm so sorry for your loss xx

 

[realhousewivewannabe]

It ended up turning into meetup talk again which kind of killed the mood

I didn’t mean to! I didn’t know it was against the rules and couldn’t remember whether it was happening or not . I put it in my calendar and everything . moving swiftly on..
this is what I’ve had!

I think I'll give bumble a go in a few weeks. So annoyed I deleted my profile on Hinge after he said he had as I truly hate setting up profiles haha

It's such an annoying process. But at least you have a different attitude now.

 

[BunnyLebowski]

Facetime with toy boy was a roaring success, was on video call for 2 hours but didn't feel that long. He's already messaged asking to do it again

Go girlfriend. But remember your boundaries yeah

 

[NoseyNiamh]

Fucking too right Neve-babe. Also that crappy wedding speech about needing his breakfast cooked by her. Runny eggs?You‘re the runny egg you cunt.

Someone on twitter said he was Sid James reincarnated, I can't unsee it

 

[ATV2021]

I read the preview too and it made me cringe so hard

I am blonde with straight hair. I'm not skinny and never will be as I have HIPS but I'm "normal sized" but alas I am tall which limits my pool. I dress feminine because I like it. I wear makeup because I like it. I do things to make ME feel good. But according to that this is why I'm single I don't play games because I don't wanna mess with people's feelings despite what they do to me... maybe I need to be a stepford wife type lol

Lol read it and take what you like from it. I found it intriguing because some men are reading The Game by Neil Strauss which is way worse.

Also saw this mentioned in a review lol

 

[HelloStereo]

That’s exactly what I was try to do you got me xxx

just a regular normal response I haven’t replied as just trying to sort out the insurance for my baby girl and paying for her to be PTS etc xx

That's a nice response. What will you say back to him?

Oh thinking of you when you have to sort out the insurance xxx

 

[Thank(space)you]

The best sex I ever had, he then gave me the ick. He managed to get me to reach the big O every time, I miss that

 

[MensaBarbie1985]

Did she know that he was in a relationship?

No it was one of those where I was made out to be the bitter, jealous, psycho ex etc. Yet several mutual friends did tell her the truth and she claimed that it was different with her…

 

[realhousewivewannabe]

We definitely need to hear more about this

This!! I vaguely remember reading this in the ick thread maybe but tell us again!

 

[SpindleWhorl]

Not quite... I ghosted him and he messaged me again 6 months later, he's now my boyfriend of 4 years.

However I ghosted him because his chat was shite - he'd send long messages that he'd clearly put a lot of effort into BUT never asked any questions? Usually a massive red flag but was absolutely not an issue in real life surprisingly! And I've had plenty of dates where guys would visibly zone out when you're trying to tell them a story and/or go hours just talking about themselves

What so he just asked you loads of questions in real life but not on chat? It's a right pain the arse when they don't show an interest in your life when chatting though, it would be hard to get from chat to a real life date if they don't ask me anything

 

[ATV2021]

Pro tip from me, I have started to mute and archive my dating chats and only check them a couple of times a day. It makes it a little easier and a nice surprise when you do spot a message

Out of sight, out of mind

I tried this....I failed haha

 

[realhousewivewannabe]

Thanks so much @crystaleyesd and my virtual sisters haha

 

[HelloStereo]

Right, if he hasn’t called me by 5 I’m gonna text him. im halfway through a

@NoseyNiamh You’re witty as fuck, Im lolling so hard

Did he call?

 

[ATV2021]

Aw It doesn’t sound that way to me! Maybe try reading The Rules by Ellen Fein & Sherrie Schneider. It’s about dating and so-called unspoken rules. I love how they put an emphasis on not getting hurt. They recommend applying some of their principles to friendships and I found it insightful. Much love

I've just read a preview of this and it's shocked me.... seems a bit "how to be a stepford wife"....

 

[Bettyboo2021]

@Bettyboo2021 have you both locked in an actual date yet?

No...not an actual date I asked him if he would like to meet again but so far a date hasn’t been mentioned
