3. What optimism.
Lady's age? Condition of legs?

4. Hmmm...well,
that depends on 'how mini' it is. I kind of think of mini as being more than a couple of inches above the knee. I think most women are their own best judges of how short to wear their skirts.

I like the mini, not just for the look, but because wearing one requires a certain amount of confidence, which is sexy in its own right.

5. Trying to get an Idea of what to wear
When I meet up with an old friend that I haven't seen in years.
It won't be until Feb. but I have to wear the right outfit and my legs aren't bad for my age.


Fishnets or regular stockings?

6. regular, I think...
...but, that depends on how interactive you'd like this reunion to be.

A mini and fishnets is pretty extreme, as are cuban heels and/or seam-backs.

As my wife often says, "you never know what you'll catch in fishnets"...

I lived with him and we broke up and he married someone else and now he is divorced. I didn't like him that much but it's better then being alone.

10. Hmmm...
I dunno... My personal preference is other than denim; I just never found it very attractive.

A leather miniskirt is very inviting, and can even be somewhat elegant if it's not too short, and is accessorised well.

11. Red or Black?
I am thinking of pairing it with fishnets or silk stockings and a nice sweater that is from Victoria Secret that is fitting. I have no idea what to wear so I want It to be nice because the field that he works In there are plenty of pretty women around and they are younger then I am.

12. Black. No question.
However, as a actively hetero male with a roving eye, I have to say that dressing considerably 'younger' than you are isn't terribly attractive. I mean, without prying, if you're 40+, you don't want to try dressing like Brittney Spears.

Who was that Conde Naste woman who used to say that "elegance can only be achieved through experience"? She was so on the money.

What you're sescribing sounds nice. Keep it tasteful, and you're a shoe-in. Speaking of shoes, what weill you be wearing in the footwear department?

13. I am 40 and I wouldn't dress like Britney
I am not that tall and the he is 6'4 so I am going to buy a pair of nice black heels that are pretty high but not high enough to break a leg.

32. Oh honey
Don't get all entangled with someone you "didn't like that much" just to avoid being alone. Spending your life with someone you don't like is much worse than spending it with yourself.

If you're just looking to "get some" then go on and shimmy into a mini and go for it. But it sounds from this post like you want more than that and if that's the case then go for something a little more tasteful and please please please think it all through before you do anything you'll regret.

35. He didn't marry me because I wore a size B
He didn't have a problem with my face but I didn't have enough on top. He was the first man that I had ever been out with and I was in Jr High and he was in his 30's.

38. Ok, I'm going to be INCREDIBLY judgemental
DO NOT go out with this guy. If he was dating you when you were in junior high and he was in his 30s then he has issues and I bet money he isn't over them.

Anyone who would tell a girl in junior high that they didn't have "enough on top" at that age is an asshole. I bet he hasn't gotten over that either.

Find somebody who deserves you.

39. And I'm going to be even MORE judgemental
What are you thinking!!! You couldn't have been more that 13 or 14 in junior high and he was 30! He is a CHILD MOLESTER!!!

I don't care if you think it was consensual or not. At that age, you cannot make a rational, adult decision to be with a MAN. He should have been locked up.

Why would you want to pursue anything with him? And it is obvious from your post that you want him to see you in a sexually attractive way.

Honestly, and I mean this with the very best of intentions, you should cancel the date and perhaps make an appointment with a counselor. I'm quite worried about you if you think seeing a man who molested you as a child and then rejected you is actually worth pursuing.

Listen, I've been alone most of my life and I know it can be lonely sometimes, but please don't compromise yourself like this. It simply isn't worth it. :hug:

33. Only thing worse
than being alone is wishing you were.

I would rather be alone than settle like that. If you didn't like him that much, why on earth would you pursue this?

17. Unless you're going directly to a nightclub...
...I'd stay clear of the fishnets--it's too much. If you're going to dinner or to a lounge, go with sheers. BUT...if you think you'll be sitting in a deep lounge chair, be sure to wear pantyhose or at least stockings which won't show the tops if you're sitting!

18. I played that game years ago
I would always sit so that the tops of the stockings would show and it would drive my old boyfriend crazy.
I am going to go with the silk stockings.

20. Better yet as a lady which would you like to wear?
My mother wore pant and western style in the 30's and 4o's and it was odd and she looked great. My sister went to the school board in the 7th grade and made them let her wear slacks to school. Girls could not do that.This was in the early 50's, and late 40's. School bus was almost a mile away along the coast of Maine and cold and windy in Winter. I also did not care when my boys grew long hair. But just to make you laugh read the new Newsweek and see the new Christian Nude camp.The picture alone will kill you.

37. Hey Lost Message
As I sit here in my housecoat and pj's, I think a nice miniskirt, showing off your good legs, with silk stockings and a really pretty sweater. A black leather mini is really sexy. Is this man worth it?

The man had a heart attack several years back and he is 20 years older then I am. I don't expect anything from him except conversation and that's it. I better wear jeans and a sweater right?
