Aha! The last time I wore a skirt is when I was 10. I have not touched any skirt or any dress ever since. Say no to heels, clutches and cosmetics. Even for wallet, I prefer the type for man.

But shorts are so comfortable when it's 40 degrees. And many shorts are not girly at all!

Nr. 1 could tolerate them. Nr. 2 really likes cats (has lived with cats all his life too) but he hasn't met mine yet so that could change rapidly

What ?! No dresses, no skirts, no heels ?!

We are complete opposites in that way, because I wear a dress almost every day, and don't go out of the house with a least some make-up.

In my cup: the last of my pot of Rooibos Persipan

You did the right thing to break with No. 1. 'Tolerates' almost always means 'hates'.

Coke Zero #2 in my cup. Ahhhh....

Lucky him!

Cuppa #3
Teaists don't read the following. It is blasphemy.

Genmaicha. Whittard of Chelsea.
In the form of tea dust.
Surprisingly, it is not bad, not bad at all. For office that's is.
My wife have been to Milton Keynes recently and grabbed two packs half-price. Despite my scepticism I found it quite palatable.

Rooibos Capetown pot 1. Making pot 2 in the near future.

I am a pants kind of gal. I love my jeans but I love my shorts. I prefer casual. Oh do I prefer casual clothes. I hate shoes, all of my work shoes are modified hiking boots. I own a few pairs of wedges but those are for special occassions only.

Obviously you do not have the need to know, yet. But you look quite talented, even in this questioning.
it is like knitting and the de-knitting. Over and over. No real purpose, just doing it.

Do not worry, your time will come.

Iridal · 08-22-2011, 11:10 AM

OK guys, I need some tips. It's going to rain all week, so no more picknicks for us

I need some fun indoor activities that don't take too long (because we can only meet in the evenings). Iceskating is one of my favourites, but for now I don't have any other ideas

(I know what those of you with a dirty mind will suggest, but that's not an option. Yet.

I ran out of ideas.

ProfCrash · 08-22-2011, 11:51 AM

Bowling. Silly shoes, checking out each others butts, and beverages.

His attitude towards you, or towards the felines?

Oh I'm looking forward to a relationship now just to know what Beppe means

Ah I know now. You're inciting me to commit the crime!

Dirty minds think alike

You must have a dirty mind to know what those with dirty minds think!!

What about a movie? Playing jigsaw? Play Station? Or reading a book together (and, ahem, some kissing as Stitchawl once suggested?)

It's 11:30 pm and I'm having a big glass of iced Milo. Gotta study a bit, then... sleep. Let's see what tomorrow might bring.

Some additions to what have been mentioned:

Board Games
Card Games
Video Games
Roller Skating
Coffee Shops
Diner

I would avoid movies and other activities that discourage conversation/interaction and favor the ones that allow for, or encourage that.
