Swit swoo! There has to be a pic of these pants! Sunshine I agree, we must be cavey. Mostly because our lady parts demand it and in the post-feminist world men are realising they like to be half chewed by a woman from time to time. It helps them to feel appreciated. Well it's the morning of the gig and he hasn't been in touch. I even sent him a copy of the KiD CuDi album (yeah I'm a huge music sl*t, I like everything except death metal and British grime music) free of charge cos I had a feeling that he was a fan, he was made up! I'm a little disappointed but I'm glad I took the plunge. Now if I see him I can say hello andthen proceed to politely ignore him... and then I'll feel sorry cos he's so fun to talk to. That's what kills me, he probably doesn't know (or care) that I fancy the pants off him and I can't switch it off cos there's a bulb in my head that flashes on 'he's my peoples' and he's taller than me and not younger than me, and he knew me back when I was far more embarrassing, I'm friends with his friends. And most importantly he was the reason I started fancying gingers. People think I'm imagining it but his sister was ginger at school and he definitely has a tinge. I bet he has cute ginger freckles somewhere. Except for his racial question which made absolutely no sense, I really dig him Onto plan b (he was plan c, in that he was the last to pop up on my radar) I have I think (at last count) 5 men at the gym that I dig in some capacity. Excluding gym instructors who all sit around perving at the women on the stairmasters, they only seem attractive because they must be constantly on the horn. Pheromones and all. If I can unscare the guy I probably growled at last night, I'll feel a bit better. Shizzle, I might even smile at him.

It certainly does! Well I'll let him come to me now. I have this terrible habit of adding messages on as things occur to me, which is ok with friends, they know what I'm like. But I have a feeling that if I were to send another message to a guy without having heard back from him (which I nearly did but I stopped to think) it'd look a bit too much. I am too much but he doesn't need to know that yet har har.

Well it turns out he didn't have a ticket he was going to buy one if someone had offered to go with. My friend thinks it may be a case of hitting him over the head with a brick and saying clearly 'by the way, I like you' because I was too vague in saying 'is that ticket still available...' Anyhoo I'm always looking for the next man to swoon over. Weekends is my thinking woman's crumpet days, a guy I work with is in Saturday/Sunday and our shifts overlap by 4 hours. I always blush when he talks to me and he looks highly amused by my horribly involuntary reactions. I have to ask him for help on a tax system that I'm new to, cue me trying to explain my query, tripping over my words and the story, blushing and looking at the floor. I must be so funny to watch!

So you might have seen me pining away/obsessing over small details about a guy I liked for 14 years, he set the record straight which made me smile (he's seeing someone, she's a doll) he used words like cool and genuine and lovely about me which was nice but made me feel a bit pitied I think I made a monumental disaster of it and he thought 'help her get her foot out of her mouth' I'm going to laugh so hard about this in years to come. But yeah, it's nice that he had the respect for me to come out and tell me when he realised what I was bumbling at... My boss' deputy in work also keeps looking to see what I'm looking at in work. Someone's tush.

Tush - good word!! Make me think of tall slender men with those nice firm little asses. Well, hey, Cherry, you put the feelers out there and you should pat yourself on the back about that. Who cares if he's seeing someone? You probably gave him a confidence boost by giving him some attention, so there! Got a bit of a flirty email from a guy at work today. It ended with him suggesting we go for drinks in a very casual and non-committal way. I probably would, though only just to flirt and feel good about myself and not to try to create something with him. I can't date another coworker ever again!! And on another note, got an email from the guy I've been casually seeing. Said he looked forward to hanging out again soon. Swoon! Sometimes stuff like this just gets me through the day, you know?

I like these emails Karen! I say go for both can only make you feel great! When's your next date? I agree that it gets you through, something to have a little Mona Lisa smile about Speaking of which I've got my Mona Lisa smile back too. Hey I hope he got a little confidence boost, he somehow managed to boost mine in telling me no, and I honestly think he's a great person and I hope we'll be friends still. I feel so much better in knowing what is up too. And that I got turned down because he's fallen for someone who seems perfect for him and is stunning to boot. I'm a huge romantic at heart I can't help but be happy for him Tall slender men with tight tushies *swoon*

Gym guy is as shy and awkward as me. I am settling in to be entertained for months with this crazy eye contact. We keep looking at each other and checking each other out in the mirror and neither of us can muster a smile while we're both blushing like coy idiots. He's my twin haha

My therapist was telling me about a patient that had a similar situation... A girl had a crush on a guy at the gym, she talked to her friends about him, etc. but said nothing. Turns out he was doing the same. Took them a year to talk to each other, and now they're engaged. By next month I hope you're up to a little wink and a smile! Or maybe a 'good job' pat on the ass? Not sure when the next date is. We both say we look forward to seeing each other again but I'm finding he's not as much of a planner as I am, and we're both working extra hours for work. I suggested tomorrow night, we'll see... And as for the coworker, I'd expect us to go for drinks sometime soon. He was hinting around today if I'd be back in town Saturday in time for a football game, and said he has a hard time with holidays because his parents are divorced (only child) and there aren't any family traditions, and that he's all alone now. He and his gf broke up a few months ago, he's living with a few guys in their basement, and I think he's starting to get antsy to get out. It'd be purely friendly, nothing more, but still good to practice the flirting a bit!

A wink or a pat on the ass?! I think I'd fall over in shock at myself, I nearly fell over trying to slide past him to get to the ab machine yesterday while he was stretching his legs in front of it, our faces were about 6 inches apart it was so awkward. But he's so pretty and I like his legs. Now that I'm a bit more confident I should be over being so shy but he's as bad as me which makes me draw back a bit. I'm content with swooning for now though til I'm more comfortable in myself. Aw the co-worker sounds adorable like he wants to be taken care of You have to keep us updated on the date. And this time just shave after a hot bath and a scrub haha no more turkey skin!

My friend's 6 year old daughter recently went up to the little boy she has a bit of a crush on (and apparently he on her) and went 'bowmchicawhauwhau', he looked at her in astonishment and basically said 'wtf?' but in a childlike way, and she went 'bowmchicawhauwhau'. Cherry, if a 6 year old can do it...
