Oh and i shall never delve into the freaky world of POF again, wow what a site for weirdos.

I think that's down to it being free; I think a subscription dating site has already filtered out most of the people who aren't serious.

WMittens · 16/07/2013 21:52

Mittens - where the hell are you? Could we all share you

Don't know that I'm OK with that, one woman is my ideal, I just so happen to be at ideal-1 at the mo.

Gotta say, I am enjoying this attention.

And now slightly afraid for my safety.

Ezio · 16/07/2013 21:54

Mittens, you stepped into the horny vipers nest, prepare to be ruined!!!

Oh yeah, online dating, like I never thought of that. The only response I got last time I tried was one guy who wasn't impressing me with his initiative. "How far is your home town from my home town?" he asked. I restrained myself from sending him a "let me google that for you" link, as he might just have been making conversation, give him a chance. Then, before we'd talked about anything like jobs, families, hobbies, or anything much at all, he said, "Allah tells me you're the one for me." I decided to take the gamble that he might be wrong on that.

Ezio · 16/07/2013 22:18

Oh i should point out i have a track record with male mumsnetters, i say no more.

littleblackno · 16/07/2013 22:20

YYY to online dating being an 'epic fail' (as my ds would say!) I'm desperate for a shag but not even tempted by anyone on any website - maybe i'm getting fussy. My sexual peak is getting wasted!!!

susiedaisy · 16/07/2013 22:45

Yep another fail with online dating just got men old enough to be my father, pervs, and oddballs messaging me, I gave up!

Ezio · 16/07/2013 22:48

I got a high volume of cock pictures, i know what they look like, all the same to me.

CarpeDiemDenise · 16/07/2013 22:49

God I need one too!

TroublesomeEx · 16/07/2013 23:37

I've been on match for 10 days.

No cock pictures, some oddballs, one nice man I'm meeting tomorrow. At least, he seems like a nice man...

Ezio · 16/07/2013 23:56

I had no luck on Match.com either, i must be unattractive

Breezy1985 · 17/07/2013 00:36

I went 4 years up until a couple of months ago, had given up all hope of ever having it again! Have got myself a fwb now, not for everyone but suits my needs Blush

Ezio · 17/07/2013 00:40

Alright breezy, dont rub it in Grin

McGeeDiNozzo · 17/07/2013 03:26

Online dating seems to be a minefield of cock pictures if you're a woman. Cock pictures and "nice guys" who are secretly (or not-so-secretly) huge misogynists.

randomthoughtprocess · 17/07/2013 12:00

Mittens Another one here....

About 5 years now. Most of them while in a relationship. V hard that ex-DP didn't want to try to do anything about it.

Dipping toe in POF (& others) - I presume some men get a reply, though I haven't yet...

freedom567 · 17/07/2013 13:32

finding humour in all of it - gotta laugh or we will all be crying...been too long...yes susiedaisy the couples holding hands - and you glance at them thinking it'll never happen...then you get distracted by ds or dd and everything is back to normal...damn fine shag would be great!

FrenchJunebug · 17/07/2013 15:09

sept 2009. Also a single mum in her forties so .... Sigh

TroublesomeEx · 17/07/2013 15:13

I'm back from my lunch date.

I still need a shag Blush Grin

He was very nice though and I did quite fancy him.

CuChullain · 17/07/2013 15:31

If only some clever engineer can somehow harness all this sexual energy and wire it to the national grid, our electric bills would half over night!

TroublesomeEx · 17/07/2013 16:07

Wouldn't it be great if there could be some 'benefit' to us in the harnessing of this energy.

What a fabulous idea..!

susiedaisy · 17/07/2013 16:27

Would it require 'special pants' do you think?!?!Grin

Ashoething · 17/07/2013 16:33

Im married but I never get any eitherSadcan I join the club please?

comingintomyown · 17/07/2013 16:35

Me too but dont do casual sex and dont want a relationship so its a bit of an impasse !!

CuChullain · 17/07/2013 16:35

Mind you it could have potential dangerous consequences if all that collective sexual energy was released at once onto the national grid, power lines and sub stations across the UK would overheat and melt, millions of electrical goods in households blowing up, and worse of all, the nations biggest argument over who has to sleep in the resulting tsunami sized owet patch.
