Hey all sorry I haven't updated my food yet, the entry above is for yesterday and today. Please forgive the bad supper last night, I went to a concert and there was a buffet on. Never mind though the band were very good and I enjoyed it a lot. They were called NU2 and are a U2 tribute band.
Anyway the reason I've been pre occupied is that an ex has been texting me for a while being outragously flirty. We only went out for about 6 weeks two years ago but one day he said he just had too much on his plate, I've never been sure if that was the real reason or not.
Anyway I was a bit resentful as we were still at that point in the relationship where everything was new and exciting and I'd be waking up each day thinking "yay - I'm going out with Sam". To have all that feeling taken away in one hour... well you can imagine I was not impressed.
I loved going out with him though, he was really nice to me when we went out together but I was always a bit worried we didnt have enough in common. Now that I've started getting into exercise etc it seems we have more in common now. I'm a bit worried about taking these texts the wrong way and getting hurt again, think I'll just try and forget about it all for now.
It does not help that this man has not an ounce of fat on him, is the best damn kisser ever and has been going to the gym for ages and has muscle any body builder would be proud of (I mean seriously... check the chest in the no air pic). I always kind of wondered why he was going out with me, I prefer to think it was my winning personality *snigger*.
Anyway I guess I'm just not sure what his intentions are and don't want to push it.
For ref here is a photo of us on the Isle of Skye in the summer of 2004 and one when we were going out in Oxford in April (when we both had hair)...

Oh Crunchie...
I have so much to say (whenever don't I?)
I would ask him directly, but in a joking way, "So, what exactly ARE your intentions, anyway?"
It's true, he may have had too much on his plate at the time, and a new relationship is hard, especially considering the amount of time you spend together going out, etc when it's new.
However, your feelings *were* hurt, and unless you say something, there will always be that little inkling in the back of your thoughts waiting for him to do it again.
Remember - your FIRST priority is to yourself and your feelings/needs.

Crunchie, he may be physically fit and all, but you are WAY cuter than him! (I know that's hard to see sometimes when we look at pictures of ourselves, but believe me, it's true!) And, with all your efforts, you are on your way to being quite fit, yourself. So, just don't let him mistreat you, okay? You deserve the best.

Crunchie, what do you MEAN, you don't know why he was going out with you? Have you LOOKED at yourself? You are georgous, and a little extra padding isn't going to change that.
M2M's right: ASK where this is going. You don't need the stress of trying to guess what he's up to, especially since he behaved as he did last time. (But he IS cute, so, if his answer is good, you might give him a second chance
Congrats on getting to the top of the mountian. It's all downhill from here, girl!
Now, what's pakora?

Hey Crunchie! Congrats on the 1/2 way point. As far as this fella Sam goes...I agree w/M2M. Ask him what his intentions are. Everyone deserves a 2nd chance. Maybe he has realized he lost out on something.
OK, here are my food questions for the day. What is Pakora and what is Go Ahead Raspberry Bake?

I agree with almost everyone above, so I'm not going to repeat everything. You look sooo young! How old are you anyway? You could definitely do better than him! You might think he looks good but if he isn't going to be concerned about your feelings and all, then tell him it's his loss!
By the way, I'm also curious about the pakora.

Hi Crunchie!
I like your ex with hair! haha I have the same thing going on with an ex from two years ago. We dated three months and I really liked him for only dating for such a short time. He's been sending flirty texts too, but I'm playing it real cool. Man pain sucks!
Depending on what you want from the guy, I would treat the situation very delicately. Trust me, men love a challenge.
If you ask him what his intentions are, you might scare him off. He may just really want to see you. Instead of dredging up the past, be light and flirtatious back, but be mysterious. He should feel that you have men calling you all the time and that you are one busy lady. Although he hurt you in the past, bringing that up will only throw a wet towel on his revived interest.
Plus you are too cute! Cuter than him. If he messes up again, it's NEXT!!
For some rules on "how to get back an ex," I highly recommend the dating books called "The Rules." Every woman should browse these books, part I and II. They are only about $8 each (bookstore under relationship section). It's worth the investment. And the rules work like a charm. The hard part is sticking to them. They are a snap when you don't like a guy, but difficult when you are head over heals.
If you don't want him back, then I'd ask him what his intentions are. But if you do, which it sounds like you do, make him work for it this time around. He'll appreciate you much more if he has to make sacrifices. That's my two cents.
Keep us posted! And way to go with incorporating exercise into your life. I'm sure that turned him on.

Hehe well thanks for the advice everyone, I haven't bothered texting him back today as I'm still confused about why he's suddenly been so strange.
After we split up it was just like we lost all confidence in each other, we went through a phase of trying to be good friends but I always expect my friends to bend over backwards if I need them to and I'd do the same for them. He just didn't have the time to be as good a friend as I wanted him to be so we drifted apart, in fact this was one of the few times we've talked for any length of time for a bit. He started being pally with people I really didn't get on with you see.
Oh well the ball's in his court, I'm not really too bothered about it as I can't see us going out again. If he found it hard when I was 2 hours away what's it going to be like when I'm 4 hours away in Scotland, don't think it's really even worth thinking about.
