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 .....

I'm so sorry this is happening OP

Though now I'm shamelessly glued to this thread

Twoweekcruise · 04/01/2018 13:05

Just out of curiosity who’s photo did you use on POF?

Justbreathing · 04/01/2018 13:05

how long have you been together

ohfourfoxache · 04/01/2018 13:05

Tartan I know it’s crushing. But do you know what? You know. And you’re doing something about it.

Imagine what would happen if he was doing this and you knew nothing about it Thanks

Omg he's just text to day he's standing outside. He's gonna be looking at every woman walking by!! Shame I didn't give the mumsnet mafia more warning .....

I'm crying and laughing at the same time ....

I missed you mumsnet!!

Haha, excellent OP! Sorry though that your boyfriend is a two-timing twat!

not placemarking

AmayaBuzzbee · 04/01/2018 13:06

How long have you been with your bf OP?

LagunaBubbles · 04/01/2018 13:07

Once it's out in the open I hope you're ok OP, horrible thing for someone to do to another person, not what you're doing but the lies from him and his behaviour.

Justbreathing · 04/01/2018 13:07

ghosting is worse. but the op's DH will know it was her.
at least this way, he might not work it out, if he's really thick. which clearly he is.

and it's a shit way to start the NY, but it's good in a way. think how bad it would be if you didnt know

Hortonlovesahoo · 04/01/2018 13:07

What a piece of work! Sorry to hear that he’s a lying cheating bastard OP.

Carbohol78 · 04/01/2018 13:07

“You don't understand what spam is. grin” - wow, that hurts ....

Ok, I am a total novice and obviously got scared into making the mistaken assumption from another post suggesting the same. To the OP, I totally apologise and stand by my original 4 comments, to the others of you who’ve taken the time to be scornful/unpleasant, it’s hardly the crime of the century, no I didn’t know you could search for topics or usernames, I don’t even know what troll hunting is Grin, I was just dabbling on here for lighthearted distraction and a couple of genuine concerns.

WinnieFosterTether · 04/01/2018 13:07

He's a cheating, lying arse but as a PP said, at least you know.
Do tell your friends in RL so you can get support Flowers

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 04/01/2018 13:07

What a dick

BackInTheRoom · 04/01/2018 13:08

Bittersweet OP. You'll look back on this at some point and laugh. Not now though. 💐

TrinitySquirrel · 04/01/2018 13:08

Keep him waiting OP! Tell him to walk to another coffee shop as the bus dropped you off closer and your heel just broke on your shoe 😁 get the MNM to be there and send you a snap!

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 04/01/2018 13:08

Text him to say you saw him, but he's much uglier than his photo so you're not going to meet him.

Emmasmum2013 · 04/01/2018 13:08

Why haven't you dumped him already?
Use this time while he is out of the house to either remove all of your or his stuff.

RedTartanLass · 04/01/2018 13:08

@deckoff Don't you think "you're not my type" is worse than ghosting?

Should I WhatsApp him as me? How are you darling!

Nah we've not been together long, a few months, but first relationship after an 18 year one!

AdalindSchade · 04/01/2018 13:08

You poor love. Have you been with him long?

pinkie1982 · 04/01/2018 13:09

He didn't get your cappuccino then!

witchofzog · 04/01/2018 13:09

Redtartan They really were Pirate noises. Crazy tablecloth lady. River of sweet corn.

I am sorry he is behaving like such a shit. You sound lovely and deserve better than this Angry

UninspiringUserName · 04/01/2018 13:09

Oh OP, you are awesome and he is a moron for not recognising it and hanging onto you dearly but trust me, he'll regret it.

Stay strong - your dignity is intact and he'll be left feeling very stupid and, hopefully, very guilty. This isn't about you, this is about him.

WorraLiberty · 04/01/2018 13:09

What does he think you look like and whose photo did you use?

Missmee2010 · 04/01/2018 13:09

I would say to him well done for being such a loser and good luck without girlfriend then put your name at end of message on pof better still create a profile on there message him and say hello lol x
