I wouldn't worry too much about it. All part of life's rich tapestry 2 hours ago, Juan Kerr said: But if you never ask, you will never know. You may be pleasantly surprised. (Best thing about getting older....I don`t really give a flying **** anymore.) I wish it was that easy, sometimes I even write texts out then decide not to send. Rejection is terrible but the chase is also thrilling. 2 hours ago, Dollymarie said: Pick up the phone and chat to her then? Ask her how her day was, tell her about yours. Just get to know her. Only then can you decide if it's worth putting in more effort. Suggest meeting up at some point as you can only really get to know someone by interacting with them, be that on the phone/text or in person. Oh Dolly that is so out dated isn't it? ain't the modern way of dating all about swiping left or right or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about Yate, but someone on here told me that Uley (near Dursley, where I grew up) was written about in the NOTW, apparently it all went on in one of the pubs there back in the late 80s Need to remember to ask Mum if she ever went for a quiet pint with Dad there back in the day.....

There weren't Cosworths around years ago Dolls, we did have lotus fords though but they were incredibly rare. You're obviously far too young to remember.

Fordy62 Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 I was spending my early to mid 20's just looking for the best looking girls on dating websites. Some were 'fun' but they didn't work out. My best mate bollocked me for only ever contacting girls with a picture and so I decided to prove him wrong and show that I wasn't shallow... I set all the parameters to my ideal woman - height, build, hair colour, education etc and up popped the profile of future Mrs Fordy. Needless to say I asked her for a picture before we went on a date, but 11 years later (7 married) and 2 sprogs later, all is excellent. Currenlty in heated debate as to whether there will be a 3rd addition... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
