Recipe of the week

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

To feel so disappointed as I really thought we were getting on well?

After the cock muncher that was penguin freak boy, I have been 'off' men a little. Finally decided to give it another go, and for the past 5 days have been emailing back and forth with a guy. We have exchanged photos - and he is nice! - and we have a great laugh over email, it all seemed to be going really well..

Today I didn't hear from him, so I finally emailed a ' Hi, how are you?' at lunch time ish. It immediately bounced back with a ' failure notice, saying it could not be delivered as there is a problem with the recipients mailbox. I think this could be because it's full? He hasn't blocked me as I mailed him from another email address and the same thing happened.

Feel bit anxious, like we were getting on so well and then no contact today. He can't mail from home at the moment due to no broadband, so he was mailing from work.

Why hasn't he set up a new email account to mail me from? He's dumped me without meeting me, hasn't he?

Please tell me I am being pathetic.

Thanks.

My first thought was 'married man'. Sorry it turned out to be almost certainly the case.

I have too have done the POF thingy and have met some munters but also some guys who have remained friends. My friend met her future husband on there. Like everything there is a risk element.

shiney, I really do sympathise, I was told by friends at age 25 that I really should write a book about my awful experiences with the male species.
Unfortunately now I am alot older but things didn't really change until a year ago when I met a lovely guy.
Believe me its still not plain sailing and we have our moments. I think think it really is true that love comes looking when you least expect it, I had given up this time last year and was just out for a bit of fun ! grin then along came my guy and I cant believe it is now a year on.
Keep the faith lol
I shall check it out when home later...

Sheeta - I know, I still have a little smile to myself
Not all I dated a few who were ok, one I dated for a while was hot in bed but not bf material. And also met dp on there smile

I love that there's a man out there, who will forever be remembered by hundreds of mumsnetters as 'cock muncher penguin freak boy'

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
