So, I'm back. Wasn't a long date, I told him up front I was a bit tired. We went for a curry. There was a Valentine's special menu but it involved a fair bit of booze, and as we were both driving we didn't bother and just went for the normal menu. He's very sweet, he paid for dinner (again he knew up front I was a bit skint and said he always pays anyway). The restaurant then gave me a beautiful, near perfect, sweet smelling single white rose. He insisted on walking me back to my car, then I dropped him back off at his and I told him I hate the end/goodnight part of first dates, told him I'd had a nice time and would be happy to go out again. He seems to feel the same way. I can't say I have the 'I want to rip your clothes off' feeling, but he's sweet, and although conversation was a little stinted at times, he seems like a nice guy. So, I guess we'll see...he even mentioned coming to visit me in hospital then I told him I'd be in less than a day!

Well isn't that sweet! Even if it doesn't go anywhere, at least you got a V-day date AND a free meal out of it!

Ugghh this is what I HATE about dating! It went, ok, I'd be happy to see him again, maybe next week after the op (which he knows about - he's more or less offered to pick me up from hospital) but now he keeps sending random text messages just asking what I'm up to and I'm feeling smothered! Aarrghh!!!

ugh, too clingy right off the bat is too much for me... What's your plan with him - ignore, or tell him no thanks?

Put him off, get him to back off a bit, and then one more date.

Hope he's not too much of a pest during your recovery!

He's quitened down actually, thankfully. I'd suggested maybe doing something this week but that ain't gonna happen now. I know he's going to offer to come over but I just can't be chewed with entertaining someone I barely know right now!

Ehhhh... I wouldn't want a new guy coming over to entertain, either! Glad he's toned it down for you, though.
