Well
good luck with it - my father lives in Madrid so if it comes off and you need some local knowledge, gaz me.

To answer the question...a good female friend (with whom I've also bumped uglies on occasion) and I considered having a "proper" relationship last week. She backed out of it though as she still had feelings for a "sort of" ex and wanted to try and make a go of it with him.

Got e-mail from her late last night saying she'd caught him with someone else...is that good news ? Potentially, maybe, but it makes me the second choice taken (should that come to pass) because he's a shit, not for any other reason. Hmm. We shall see...

Thanks for the offer
I'll keep it in mind.

About that girl, if you like her a lot, I'd give it a try. If it's just a cute girl that you fancy... it seems she's going to give you a lot of headaches for not much.

I fear I've lost you.

No you haven't.

She has blown you out once.
Laugh at her misfortune and move on.

Good point.
Jenkins! Jenkins!

How big are her tits?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 9:15, Reply)

It's not the "hot" factor that's the key issue here
It's that I've known her for 18 years...and God, she makes me laugh. I'd like to have something with her - and last time we went through this loop, it was I who turned her down for someone else. So we're kind of even right now.

But being with someone who is completely known to me as a person, and with whom I share a lot of good memories, is a massive attraction point.

I like you.

Well...

But the tits Jenkins, the tits.
How. Big. Are. Her. Tits.

Have you had too much coffee this morning?

( girlinthehole, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 9:18, Reply)

I've had 4 mugs of coffee.
But I'm going to go out and get a breakfast in a minute.

(Which will involve another coffee).
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 9:19, Reply)

They are quite nice as tits go
is all I'm going to say on that subject.
(TheImmortalJenkins, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 9:23, Reply)

You really like her
don't you? That's sweet. I think I'd try, if I was you.
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Tue 9 Nov 2010, 9:24, Reply)

ooh yes, I think she's great and crazy and everything
that I like. I think it could go really well...but don't want a complete "rebound" situation. So it's all now down to timing...when to step into the breach, so to speak. Both of us are damaged goods right now, so it's trying to play the long game and have something together, whilst not listening to my knackers that are saying "for God's sake have some sex man, it's been too long" !

Hahaha
You can surely talk like that with her, if you know each other so well. Maybe she feels the same, and you can start something from there. Slowly, but strong.

Yes, as long as
"big head" is in charge, not "little head". We shall see...to be continued...thanks all for the caring advice. Off now for a short while...laters.
(TheImmortalJenkins, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 9:49, Reply)

it's working for me
and I'd only known her for 4 years before

try it, but be prepared to call it quits early if it looks like it is going to go sour. While the friendship is still there.
