But that thread's died and somebody's got to try a new one. Can't really think of a good question at the moment so in the meantime;
How did you meet your significant other? Did you chase them, did they run after you like a fat kid chasing an ice cream van? If you're single, what the fuck's wrong with you, you ugly or something?

I was really creeped out for a couple of seconds, given that I've never met you, until I realised you weren't.

I went in to sort it, we started chatting, she was in a relationship that was winding down at the time, we got together after they split. That's about it, really.
She's moving back to Leeds this week, which is a bit disappointing. Not the end of the world, mind, but won't exactly make it easy for us to see each other all the time.

in other news today is day one of the great changeover: I am now carrying keys and cash in my LEFT pocket, and phone and fags in my RIGHT. We sure are living in momentous times, my friend.

i was dating (banging) a visually pleasing but lacking in suitable long-term attributes (like interesting personality, conversational ability, similar taste in ANYTHING except sex) 19yo bellydancer at the time. Met a cute lass from norn iron through a mutual friend, she basically hit on me ruthlessly for a few hours, to which i was blissfully oblivious, as i usually am when women throw themselves at me (it's so infrequent i guess my brain goes "is she... nah don't be silly!") then grabbed my hand and put it on her arse. I fancied her, so i took her number, but i didn't want my my first intro to her to be me cheating on someone else, and i'd already pretty much decided it was over with this other chick. so i dumped the other girl a day later, then dropped the new lass a text.
that was nearly five years ago.
definitely the right call.

I just thought she was being playful. A mutual friend had to stage an intervention and ask just what the fuck I thought I was playing at.

It wouldn't be nearly as entertaining as the stuff that gets made up here. I'm pretty normal.

like that me and the other girl saw each other once a week, that she had LITERALLY no interests beside bellydancing, to a SUPER nerdy level, and penis.... and the fact that what triggered the final dumping was she was seeing someone else on the side.
also that my current girlfriend has big blue eyes. can't fuck with it man. it can't be fucked with.

I dumped the ex and a few days later the ex and her friend had a big falling out. Her friend sent me a message on FB a month or so later, we hooked up, the rest is history.
I saw the ex from a distance at the weekend. Her arse is getting larger, if that were possible.

It's not going well. Almost made the decision to appeal my degree classification. On the plus side I've ticked off a number of things this year that I wanted to accomplish with free time so that is good.

Being a cocky little fucker I butted in to their conversation and introduced myself. 10 Months later we were married.

Gave a young lady a lift home in 'Goth car' after her mate had buggered off with my mate.
The next week I was in a village pub having dinner, when the young lady (from the week before) dragged a very attractive woman over to my table, introduced her and then left us to chat. Apparently she had seen me a few times and thought I was quite attractive* but had never managed to get into conversation with me.
Been together for 7 years now.

This is not due to any moral objection on my part. It's more due to being a sweaty internet housewhale.

I was going to a party and was getting changed on the tube. She thought this was highly amusing and as I was getting off I gave her my number.
She called a couple of days later and we started going out. I lived with her for about a year and a half.
She had a boob job whilst we were together. Not that it's relevant.

But I have told her I will find her less sexually attractive with fake tits. She just wants to look good for other women.

She dumped me but I knew her house mate fancied me so I got with her. Then my ex wanted me back so I stupidly dumped the housemate. Then the ex dumped me again so I got back with the housemate. She was all in all a much nicer person, had more in common with me and was much better in bed. I had blown it though as she could never get over the fact that I chose my ex over her. She dumped me a few months later. Bugger.

I first split up with the most recent ex in 08. We got back together and I was playing a game of constant damage control as after that I could never do anything right. Should have stayed split up.
( , Mon 18 Jun 2012, 12:05, Reply)

I am now sure that her goal was to ruin it for me and the other girl, and in no way actually wanted me back.
