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 .....

on a minute...this is a post from YEARS AGO. Why do threads not get closed down? 🙃

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.

@RedTartanLass

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!!

Single is no bad thing..I'm just amazed it is such an old {2018} thread! 😂

Thanks for the update .

Better to be single than be with a cheater though!

@Ginkypig

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?

No he text a couple of times afterwards but I just said too busy to go to wedding and just let it fizzle out by not answering texts. He got the message.

Probably never knew it was me that stood him up.

I actually bumped into him coming out the gym in Swindon a couple of months later. I was looking good too, not my usual mess! Just looked him up and down and ignored him!

@oakleaffy purple paper!! What a tosser!!

Yeah I love the flash Mnet Mob idea too. If I'd had more time I'm sure that would have worked!!

@Hereward1332

Tell him you turned up but recognised he was a friend's BF. Let him worry about whether your 'friend' is going to tell you about him.
That's brilliant- in fact message him saying I saw you and recognised you as RTL's boyfriend.

I’ve read this whole thread and still trying to figure out what POF is 😂

IDontMindMarmite · 07/09/2020 14:53

POF = Plenty of Fish- a free 'dating' site

ReasonablyUnreasonable · 07/09/2020 14:53

@Elephantday82 Is it Plenty of Fish? xx

MadameMeursault · 07/09/2020 16:06

Wow this thread was good, thank you OP. What is the other thread of which you speak?

Jeremyironsnothing · 07/09/2020 16:20

Thanks for updating. Always nice to hear how things turned out.

What other thread?

VinylDetective · 07/09/2020 16:21

This thread’s made my day, where’s the other one?

Elephantday82 · 07/09/2020 16:23

@IDontMindMarmite and @ReasonablyUnreasonable

Ah thank you 🙂

@RedTartanLass

Wish I'd seen this at the time. I'm near Swindon. This was brilliant!

3rdNamechange · 07/09/2020 17:45

Have to say well done , although I'm disappointed you didn't tell him it was you.
