New low in dating

Met a guy for a drink at 5.30pm yesterday.

After an hour he says he's meeting his mate in another bar for a drink

No probs, I say

He then tells me he will text me when he's back and we can have sex

I laugh and say I will be asleep

Woke up to see hehas indeed texted at 3.15am asking me to go round tohis!!

I'm quite amused by it all but really would this work for any woman???? Such an obvious way to say my mate is more fun to be with but I can't shag him so you just wait up for 8 hours and we can shag

Good grief

Who or what is raising men to turn out like this?

They only think about sex now.

I don't think anything I do or say is going to change a 35 year old bloke like that. I can't manufacture feeling angry about something I just think is pathetic.

He's responsible for himself. I'm not.

You should have told him to fuck off when he even suggested it. Know your worth !

Crushed23 · 01/09/2024 14:43

I matched with a guy on Hinge and when I suggested we should meet he replied “Are you out tonight” at 11:45pm. 😐

I know that plenty of (most?) men on apps just want a ONS, but this was the most blatant agenda pushing I’ve come across.

Mangococktail · 01/09/2024 14:46

Yeah it's the blatantness. Makes me almost nostalgic for the blokes who would buy you a cocktail and listen to you talk about your dead cat for two hours then shag you and never call.

As for who raised him...his Dad is a priest. I'm 100% sure this is some trick he's read about online designed to make women desperate to please.

Is he gorgeous?

Lol. He would not be most women's type that's for sure.

He is by no means is "the catch" if that's what you mean.

Really hadn't got this misogynist vibe from him before.

He's texted in the last 30 minutes with some story about how he's been speaking to his dad and what a great guy his dad is and he looks up to him.

I honestly wonder if he's getting someone else to do his texting.

TroysMammy · 01/09/2024 14:54

I'd tell him he can go and fuck himself.

AdviceNeeded2024 · 01/09/2024 14:56

Urgh he sounds like a total narcissist! Like he thinks that you should consider yourself so lucky that he’d even consider you for a 3.15am drunken shag that would likely be over in 30 seconds 🤮

But also like how can this even make guys feel good about themselves?

I mean doesn't everyone enjoy like cooking someone breakfast, watching a movie together etc etc

I honestly can't think given he'd been drinking 9 hours by this point that anything with anyone could have been enjoyable??

Good grief, it was a new low for you to text back the wanker with such a polite message! Fuck me, just block him.

frozendaisy · 01/09/2024 12:01

Have you not text back

We have met for one hour once for a drink that does not make me your dial a hooker. It's a no from me.

Love it 😂

I get where you are coming from op. Because, surely, SURELY that would never work? It baffles me completely but sadly it’s not a new thing. 25 years ago I was walking down a busy street at 6pm on a random weekday. I’d come from work so was wearing a trouser suit, nothing remotely revealing. Random man walks past me with his friend and remarks “show us your tits”. I actually stopped and asked him if that had EVER worked? Had any women in the history of the world, put down her handbag, popped off her top and showed him her breasts?? Or was he just trying to show off like a stupid teenager in front of his friend? He went bright red and shuffled off so I think I got my answer! No idea WHY some men do this. Twats.

He’s only thinking about his own enjoyment, I’d expect any sex with him to be the same, a massive let down and I’d bet he’s rubbish and entirely selfish in bed.

I genuinely don’t know why some people are like this, but it obviously massages his ego to some extent that he can call someone up after a one hour date and they’d go to him. I know you didn’t but others might.

He’s probably one that will still be behaving this way in 20yrs time and be perpetually single while calling any woman he dates for longer than a few weeks ‘a psycho’ once the relationship has ended!

AutumnJoys · 01/09/2024 15:37

Time for a blocking!

DeCaray · 01/09/2024 15:37

That's horrific. Also hilarious!

Text

'Not even if it was made of solid gold!"

Then block.

It is hard to believe that tens of thousands of years of evolution have gone into men...and they are this stage 😂

Dweetfidilove · 01/09/2024 15:59

You see, now you've replied, he thinks the door is still open for him to try again. Why?

The problem we have is that men are disrespectful and entitled, and women's standards are beneath the floor.

The moment he said that me, it's a straight - 🙄, kmt, leave and block.

ruffler45 · 01/09/2024 16:04

This raised a smile on my face

Guess his ego is way bigger than his seduction technique.

OpalGoose · 01/09/2024 16:15

Where did you first meet him - Plenty of Fish?

Buildingthefuture · 01/09/2024 16:15

@Mangococktail its the dick pics that confuse me the most. I’m married so thankfully don’t have to deal with them, but SO. BLOODY. MANY of my friends do. They meet a man on line, perhaps exchange a few pleasant messages, maybe even have a positive first date, where everyone behaves well. Then, voila…..pictures of an invariably unattractive appendage arrive, usually including the sight of a horrid dirty carpet, football club bedding or rank curly toenails 🤮🤮🤮 WHY? Just why???

Floogal · 01/09/2024 16:24

Seems that he thinks he's Austin Powers 😂
