I am about 800 miles and 9 days away from Date II, the one that, in popular lore, makes* or breaks.**
Doesn't it?
In the meantime, exiled and bored and trying to not perspire in anticipation, I turn to friends for advice.
What to do, play it cool, remain elusive and non-committal, or just admit that yes if I could beam myself anywhere in the world right this second it'd more than likely be into his bed?
One does not want to be thought easy.
But one is definitely feeling very eager.
- What's your man-date upto over Christmas? asks Lady J, who, most generously, doesn't think ill of me for having a man-date in the first place.
- My man-date (I'll call him John when/if he becomes more than a date, let's not jinx it) is going up to Wales. In the meantime, we email. I reckon someone who writes 'Wish you were curled up under my blanket with me tonight watching a film' has to have honourable intentions, wouldn't you say?....
- Aww I like mandatejohn already. Do you know much about him and his life? Kids? Interests? Ambitions? Hobbies? Starsign?!!!!
- Actually I don't know 2 crucial, life-defining things :
1) his starsign
2) if he likes cats.
The problem of course is that these are extremely girly questions to ask. And what if he turns out to 1) be scorpio with pisces rising 2) hate them? Should I run in the opposite direction? What do you think?
- Whassuup with the scorpio with pisces rising combo? (Aside from being terribly conflicted, naturally). And, you can always ditch the cat and get a puppy/snake/rat/stick insect, depending on his petual tastes. His job and life sound interesting. Maybe you could serve as a muse for a book about lesbianswhomandate.
I believe that as I type, Lady J is creating www.lesbianswhomandate.com and giggling about it, too. Off to the kitchen now, just to check that Glögg really is as lovely as I think.

I must live vicariously through you because I am too cowardly to try this myself. I will keep my fingers crossed that the second date runs smoothly and successfully, no diaper fetish is revealed, and it is revealed that he ADORES cats.
>second date
meh.
if he's a *genuine* bloke, hanging around just wastes time that could be better spent in bed.
if he's not, well what do you care what he thinks?
ie, if he's an arsehole, you're gonna wanta get shot of him pretty quickly after he's got what he wants, so you might as well get what YOU want sooner rather than later. then get shot of him and look for someone real.
Sal, I like how you think.
i myself certainly seem to fit that category. i got all excited about www.lesbianswhomandate.com and it's not actually there!
you brazen hope-dasher.
;-)
xx thanks for your comment over at mine!
Frogstar - I know, it should exist, right? Perhaps I should rename my blog.
I'm inclined to agree with Sal here - the problem is that often *genuine* guys don't like it when you're too "forward".
Although having said that, if they're the sort that have a problem with you being too "forward" then they probably aren't the sort of person you want to be with and so you might as well get what you want first anyway.
EIther way - you win
