To make my bf wait hours for his blind date

Ok so I've not been on here for years ...... but I'm raging. My bf has been behaving suspiciously so I checked online and right enough the wanker has a POF profile!

So I catfished him and we're meeting today at 12:30 ..... well he thinks we are ... I'm not turning up. Want to see how long I can make him wait!

If you're in Swindon feel free to give him a wave!!

Am I being unreasonable to make him wait a couple of hours. Will I be able to drag it out that long .....

How are you feeling today OP? I hope you are not too saddened by your cheating ex and that you have a great date

sugaredstrawberries · 05/01/2018 19:04

Hoping your okay OP Thanks

Hello hello 👋

I’m good thank you for asking! My years of posting nonsense on here seem like a lifetime ago now.

OP... glad you enjoyed your thread and yes. IMMENSELY PROUD OF YOU Grin

Right, off I go, back to anonymity once more. It was quite nice to come back, not as Shiney in name but definitely Shiney in nature

Cheerio for now

NotSureThisIsWhatIWant · 05/01/2018 20:36

9 years! Shock Shiney and RedTartanLass, you are an inspiration!

marywasneeavirgin · 08/01/2018 07:33

How did the new date go?

BunsOfAnarchy · 08/01/2018 08:53

Never read a thread so intently! OP you are a legend!

BuckysRoboticArm · 08/01/2018 10:17

Yeah I'm surprised this thread just trailed off like that. It was getting so good! What happened with the ex...hope he wasn't the new date like a pp suggested Shock

MammaTJ · 08/01/2018 19:48

Buckys Really? I don't think it tailed off at all. We got told the OP would not see him again, would ghost him to make him feel uncertain. That is pretty conclusive to me! What do you want exactly? Flashing lights and sirens?

RedTartanLass · 07/09/2020 11:39

Just a quick update on this thread, because of the other thread.

I never saw the wanker again but 10 months later he contacted me on POF again. Obviously not knowing it was me!!! Same picture, same info in profile. I didn't bother answering!

And I'm still freakin' single!!

@RedTartanLass
I caught out a 'partner' I suspected of not being faithful.
He edited a magazine, and had a 'partners' section.

I got my friend to write a short advert:
''Superslim 27 yr old, Long brown hair, attractive, seeks that special someone to drink wine by the fire with , while toasting our tootsies''.

I used another, rural address. {The 'girl's rural location was why she hadn't met anyone}

Anyhow.......... He came to spend the weekend here and showed me a new pen he'd bought, and asked if I had any ''purple paper?''

..I said 'no, but I have white'...Then I realised.. days later!..Friend had written the letter on purple paper!

Sure enough...Friend at the rural address got a letter with a copy of his magazine, and he said ''I know what you mean, bu looking for that special someone...I have also been on my own for years

When he phoned me, I said ''I get the feeling you are interested in other women?''..He said 'You're paranoid'&c&c

I finished it... and he kept pestering to come and stay..I just said ''NO''.

Friend in the rural location panicked in case he turned up...So had to get out of that one by saying she was no longer looking for a partner.

Ginkypig · 07/09/2020 12:54

So after that call at 3pm where he gushed all over you you just never heard from him again?

What about the wedding etc he didn't try to get you to go to it?

Madcats · 07/09/2020 13:10

OP Gosh I REMEMBER this thread. You were awesome!
