Wow! I hadn't realised just how long it has been since I last wrote!
Life has been totally hectic this last month, working 70 hour weeks and still trying to grab sleep and a social life in between all that.
Life is calmer now.
Well there is less work on.
I'm back down to 60 hour weeks.
So, the update!
I have met some new people, met a new man, decided the new man was just another toser and then amazingly I have met another man, who seems to be scarily wonderful!
Saying that, we haven't been on our first date yet and have only met twice but since we exchanged numbers a week ago we haven't stopped texting and emailing each other. I'm beginning to see it a little like online dating just knowing that we have met previously.
The first man, works at the local Cannon's gym, seemed nice enough, had a late night snogging session on my kitchen sofa and when I saw him out the weekend after, his friends asking him when he was going to take me out, he out of the blue, in front of a group of mutual friends, say's 'I have a problem with dating girls who have already slept with one of my friends'.
Ouch.
I assumed, as did the mutual friends, that he meant Bedboy.
It would appear he didn't.
When he apologised later in the night he said he heard it was someone else who is currently with one of my friends. This is actually untrue, however I'd already mentioned Bedboy and the damage was done.
Last weekend he rang and text me incessantly one night asking me to meet him, this progressed to hotel requests. I bluntly told him via text that I had more about myself than to go to a hotel with someone who last week thought he was too good for me.
He text the next day apologising and has since tried to keep in touch, however I have met the new man and I'm hoping this one comes out right.
New man, Mr System is a friend of a friend, well actually a friend of Bedboy, which is inconvenient but passable...
Anyhoo, we met out one night and got on well, met again the following week and exchanged numbers. Since then we have spoken every day by text or email. We are very friendly with each other, speaking almost as if we have dated for a while. He texts things saying he wants a snuggle, I sent him one of those forward funny email's and he replied saying it reminded him of me. We text to say goodnight every night.
Yet we still haven't gone on the first date! We arranged one but a family meal came up and he couldn't make it, so far we are tentative for tomorrow daytime but who knows what may come up!
Getting frustrated because its as if someone wrote an instruction manual
on how to get me to fall for someone and gave it to him. I am totally falling for him and I think I need someone to give me a damn good slapping!!! And I hope to god he’s being sincere but the chances are he’s a clever pregnant fish like the rest of the men I've met and he’s saying everything he is just to screw with me or screw me, either way, its not good.
I know I shouldn't write it off before we even get on the first date but knowing how other men have treat me its hard to not look at it with skeptism...
