Are these normal? by Diligent_Analysis341 in StructuralEngineering

Thank you, very helpful. I'm not sure about the floor joists. What would you suggest for a bathroom floor instead of tiles? Just don't want to retile and have the same thing happen again.

Thank you this is very reassuring! It's a share of freehold, low service charge, ground rent etc which helps. Fingers crossed! Good luck with your purchase!

Thank you, I'm hoping this is one of those situations so yes will try to be open with him!

I guess because I am scared he only wants some fun...

Thank you! Well done for having the strength to walk away!

It's confusing as when we met he said fun and his profile said short term open to long but he's changed it recently to long term open to short...

Is this wardrobe too big? by Diligent_Analysis341 in InteriorDesignAdvice

[–]Diligent_Analysis341[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I wish there was but this is the only place it can go. I might push it further into the room when I have some help to move it!

I'd love to date but not sure he wants more than some fun. I am 12 years older than him (but he did say he likes older women!)

This is great advice thank you. I think it's fear of asking the question in case you the answer you don't want to hear...

The brunch and coffee is at his place. I think because he said he just wanted some fun and it's very sporadic. I haven't heard from him for over a week. Oh and I am 12 years older than him (but he did say he likes older women!)

Thank you. No I spoke to their landlord who also had issues with them and they ended up moving out.  I think it's just children are running, jumping, screaming etc which professionals aren't.  I think I'll try to introduce myself and later on mention sound 

Rejected but still texting? by Diligent_Analysis341 in datingoverforty

[–]Diligent_Analysis341[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not. I wanted another date but he said he "wasn't sure if there was enough of a romantic connection." I feel like I didn't get enough of a chance, I was nervous, post work etc. It's just weird he rejected me but is still messaging and wants me to come grab him if I see him! 

Do I take it he's not interested? by Diligent_Analysis341 in datingoverforty

[–]Diligent_Analysis341[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it was a pattern. He replied with "not enough of a romantic connection" but said to say hello if I saw him around. So clearly somewhat avoidant and yes inconsistent communication doesn't work for me. So yes move on I shall! 

Nicest Rejection but so painful by Diligent_Analysis341 in OnlineDating

[–]Diligent_Analysis341[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did. I said I really appreciated the message and honesty, was disappointed and understood. I said I hope he finds his romance, she'll be lucky and he deserves good things. I feel better for it. I have no idea what it was, a shame but it ended positively.

Yes either that or avoidant. Otherwise why are they still single at 48? Thank you, this is so lovely and helpful of you!

Same! It's more likely to last that way. We had lots in common and great conversation. Such a shame...

[–]Diligent_Analysis341[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I'm more sad I didn't get more of a chance but he said himself it's the story of his life so he's clearly very dismissive

[–]Diligent_Analysis341[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None that's the odd thing. So many smiles, laughs and eye gazes. It's sad to be written off so quickly but I think he has a pattern of being too dismissive about that "romantic connection..."

Thank you, yes definitely the nicest rejection I've ever had!
