To think this chap is a bit of an arse? OLD

Just to be clear, I've never messaged him. This is his way of introducing himself.

Here's an edited pic if it helps save the thread.

I'd reply: How funny to go to the effort of setting yourself up on a dating site, only to spend your time there sending multiple messages to the 'ugly' women that you don't want to date Hmm.

WitchesSpelleas · 11/12/2020 18:52

Yay, MNHQ have removed the pic but left the thread. Nice one, @malpa.

PeanutButterCheesecake · 11/12/2020 18:54

I've blocked him and deleted the picture so thanks to @malpa for saving the day there!

I'd just respond 'Oh, right. Thanks for letting me know.' And never anything else.

MzHz · 11/12/2020 18:55

All hail @malpa!

PeanutButterCheesecake · 11/12/2020 18:57

No I'm not on a date with him. He is well out of my league 😭 so handsome and charming

I smell an incel

I wouldn't be surprised if he just copies and pasted that to loads of women - gross

MrsGulDukat · 11/12/2020 18:59

I've been toying with the idea of online dating. If that is the quality of the men out there, I'll stick with single life.

Holy fuck balls, he has some issues.

Backtotheplanetofthegrapes · 11/12/2020 19:00

He was up all night worrying about it the poor lamb.

gottakeeponmovin · 11/12/2020 19:01

What's OLD? What a dickhead

MargotMoon · 11/12/2020 19:01

@PeanutButterCheesecake

My profile says 'I really adore fuckheads with no manners who hate women, please message me if you meet that criteria'

I thought that about the 'making people smile' thing too! What a cunt.

He was only following your instructions tbf Grin

LisaLee333 · 11/12/2020 19:02

What a bloody arsehat. @PeanutButterCheesecake You are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too good for this twat.

Also, I don't want to sound smug, so I am sorry if I do, but I am so glad I am married (for nearly 30 years,) because no WAY would I want to be a single woman, trying to find romance/a partner these days. SOOOOO many total nobhead men on OLD.

If me and DH split, or he died (God forbid!) I think I would stay alone/single forever! I shudder at the thought of having to start dating at fifty-ish. Shock

OLD = ONLINE DATING. Smile
giantangryrooster · 11/12/2020 19:08

Well, I think you are in luck. It's clearly a psychiatrist fishing for patients.

(and if that doesn't work, he can always destroy your confidence himself).

WitchesSpelleas · 11/12/2020 19:13

Probably thought OP would seize on his first message (at 5:30am!) and reply 'Gosh, you're so clever and insightful, please come round right away and shag me.'

When OP, strangely enough, didn't reply within 5 mins despite further prods, he quickly and so charmingly 'signed off' ... to preserve his dignity and self-respect. Ha ha ha.

Submariner · 11/12/2020 19:31

Also, what an odd insult 'You're someone who's not always happy.' Along with ... 100% of the human race. Was he grinning away with utter contentment as he berated OP for her profile choices?

He's obviously way out of your league given the level of bell-endery he spouts.

mena51 · 11/12/2020 19:45

Can't even string together a sentence and thinks the highest insult to a woman is to call her ugly, these losers should just keep themselves to themselves in the bin.

Nancydrawn · 11/12/2020 19:55

There is a twitter feed dedicated entirely to the bizarre/horrifying/so-appalling-it's-funny messages men send to women on OLD profiles. (Actually, it's broadened out into a podcast, too.) I am routinely astounded.

YouokHun · 11/12/2020 19:58

“From reading your profile I would say blah blah”Thanks for the analysis Sigmund Freudulent. As for “your (sic) clearly not a nice person” that sounds like projection to me. Tosser (analyse that).

VetiverAndLavender · 11/12/2020 19:58

According to the timestamps, he spent at least a few minutes composing those messages, and that was the best he could come up with! Amazing...

Spinningdot · 11/12/2020 19:59

Do you ever think that incels troll women in this way so they have fodder?

Spinningdot · 11/12/2020 20:00

someone may have responded calling him out on everything from his use of 'your' to his barely concealed nastiness & that would have been enough for ''see how fucking horrible women are''
