To make my bf wait hours for his blind date

RedTartanLass · 04/01/2018 12:17

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 .....

Message him as yourself and ask him to meet you for a drink. See what he says.

lookingforthecorkscrew · 04/01/2018 12:48

Screenshot the messages from him and post them here!

Carbohol78 - not that I give 2 fucks if you think in a troll but back in the beginning mumsnet was a much smaller place and the Bourton date was a huge thread that stuck with me. The bird place is quite near me and I was going to turn up too!! It stuck in my mind. That's why I've come back to mumsnet after years and years away to share this tale.

Coz I knew I'd (mainly) get support!

This is genius!

AFistfulOfDolores · 04/01/2018 12:50

I'd message him back on WhatsApp and say, "No you're not at gym. You're waiting to meet me for coffee."

WorraLiberty · 04/01/2018 12:51

Whose photo did you use OP?

Trinity66 · 04/01/2018 12:51

How are you going to tell him that you're his POF date? Grin

Carbohol78 · 04/01/2018 12:51

Screenshot the messages? ...

RebeccaBunch · 04/01/2018 12:51

what a shit - but good for you for messing with him RedTartan.

Sorry that he is cheating though - do you live together?

GlitterRollerSkate · 04/01/2018 12:51

Sorry but I saw you and you're not my type!!

Grin

And ask if he is using an old photo as he looks much different.

Ok message from him 12:48 - How far away are you?

SoulStew · 04/01/2018 12:52

I’d say your plans have changed and you are in town, does he want to meet??

witchofzog · 04/01/2018 12:52

I remembered the penguin thread. Was it Shiney?

It might have been nearly a decade ago but it was unforgettable

Op definitely tell him that she had seen him and he wasn't her type.

Carbohol78 · 04/01/2018 12:53

That’s not a screenshot

SummerRoberts · 04/01/2018 12:53

Message him as yourself and tell him you're in the area, can you meet him from the gym?

JaneEyre70 · 04/01/2018 12:53

Oh OP this must feel horrid. Have you been with him long??

Lampie · 04/01/2018 12:53

I'm only a couple of miles away. Shame, I can't get there in time. Good luck op, have your moment of vengeance and then block and delete

cathycake · 04/01/2018 12:54

What a shithead!
I'd love to be a fly on the wall

Fairenuff · 04/01/2018 12:54

I remember the penguin thread too. Some threads are just so memorable.
