...from a "gentleman" with whom I had a recent liaison?

"Urgh, this is horrible for me, and for you, and it could well sour things and I would hate myself if it did. But, I have to be honest. I said you were not my normal type, physically, and that is very true. I am really attracted to slim women, I can't help it and have tried before, with it not getting very far. I completely accept that circumstances and free time dictate how we are able to shape ourselves. I understand if you are hurt by this, and trust me I hate it having to be a thing. I hate the idea of men dictating to a woman what they should look like, and I am not telling you to do anything. I am just saying, in the past at least, this issue has got in the way. If you did feel like meeting me in the middle on this then I am realistic and not as demanding as you might initially think. As I say I totally understand that your circumstances and how they are not exactly kind in this respect. There are literally zero other red flags, especially none outside of your control, maybe. Urgh, I am so sorry, I know how this issue can really fuck women up but as I say I can't help what I like, but I am super realistic about what is possible and what is not. Urgh urgh."

Suggestions for an appropriate response would be very much appreciated.

Ugh I’m glad you brought it up as I also have an issue with size. It was tricky for me to say but you have made it so much easier thank you. You see, while you may appear to prefer things on the smaller side, I on the other hand prefer the larger side of life (which you seem to have pointed out) and I didn’t know how to tell you that your dick just doesn’t cut it. Ugh I know you will feel bad about it this knowing there is nothing you can do to cover up your ridiculously small dick or indeed chabge your sizest attitude but you’re right I needed to say before it soured the relationship and I was even less satisfied than last time. Time to call it a day. Ugh ugh.

@saraNK Someone who commented with something shitty. Not sure what’s so confusing?

You’ve made it into The Sun! Hope the vacuous knobber reads the thread Grin

QueenDoria · 25/10/2018 22:07

Yup. Keep sharing! Well done to The Sun! You were always good at exposing knobbers!!!

Yep, The Sun is great for showing up tits. ;-)

Nice to see my reply quoted. Fame at last

I hope he reads the Sun and is suitably humiliated - Mr text message sender - if you're reading this thread now, well done, you're such a tool that a National newspaper decided to write about you

jillowarriorqueen · 26/10/2018 02:23

Can't help feeling that this ugly misogynistic tabloid/loo roll of a rag, has also also opened up our OP to nasty and spite fueled abuse from neanderthal chauvinistic pigs tho.

LeraTanner67 · 26/10/2018 12:18

First he mentioned zero red flags for him but for you there should be bells and whistles going off. It is clear he is a very passive aggressive person. He is very controlling and it wouldn't be long before you would be in deep trouble with this guy. It is obvious that he has no tact and selfish as he feels compelled to inform you of your flaws while dismissing the fact that "I am sure" he is not sex god with all of his I's dotted and T's crossed, however, feels that he is exactly that. I would respond by saying, " I am sorry you feel that way, however, I am very comfortable with my appearance and want to be in a relationship with someone who values me for who I am not change me. Thank you for the so so good time and good luck in the future with your endeavors of finding a perfect mate". and then block him.

“Is this the guy from last night”
“Did you mean to send this to me”

Because it is fucking deranged to send this to somebody you have had a ONS with. Just insane levels of entitlement (if it’s a long-term partner it is controlling and fucked up, but why on earth would any ONS agree to lose weight for some complete random).

It's how those particular men think. Steroids shrink the penis doesn't it? Wink

Sashkin · 26/10/2018 21:03

Is this really how men think?

Came across as very homoerotic forum, that one. Group of insecure men desperately primping themselves to get validation from other men who they find hot. Not surprising they are misogynists.

Also not surprising they were banging on about strip clubs - my DH has a theory, based on previous stag do experiences, that men only go to strip clubs with their friends if they have a secret desire to watch their friends cum 🤷‍♀️

VanGoghsDog · 26/10/2018 23:20

Why would men do that in a strip club? Surely it's watching only?

Sashkin · 27/10/2018 04:20

Apparently that doesn’t stop them coming in their pants during lap dances Envy

DH thought that clubbing together to buy the stag a lap dance was a weird thing to do, but apparently wanking off your friends by proxy is totally heterosexual, just like having circlejerks in school were.

But I’m derailing.

GoatWithACoat · 27/10/2018 07:27

Fucking hell those steroid freaks fucking hate women don’t they?
Single mums (scum)
overweight women (whales that should be grateful)
Rape victims (liars that just regret sex)
And all women on here are unemployed and fat Hmm

And women should be ‘grateful’ to fuck any of them. Any man that shows respect is a ‘phaggot’

They must have some serious ‘mummy issues’ to hate women that much.

Fightthebear · 27/10/2018 08:25

No, goat. I’m sure they’re a big hit with the ladeez.
