Guess what he thinks is wrong with me....

[SafeMouse]

So met a guy online. Date 1 - very average but thought I'd give him time to come into himself. Date 2 boy did he come into himself.....

I'll tell you about me. Early 40s, reasonably fit but no gym bunny (size 10 - 5'1). Successful career wise, live in the centre of a popular historic city in a beautiful converted flat. No kids, 2 cats. Average undergraduate degree. Divorced 6 years.

Let's guess what this Prince amongst men (hes not. Really really not) thinks is the problem with me when incredibly drunk on date 2.

My grandad, God rest his soul, met my 6'5" DH for the first time and afterwards veey seriously told my mum "he's a nice lad, but there's no need to be that tall"!

Any time DH whacks his head or can't fit his knees behind a theatre seat, we always tell him it's his own fault, and that there's no need to be that tall!

Too old for him?

Ah there's always one. That you, OP's date? 😆

He thinks you’re fat.

A 2:2 is significantly below average, sorry not sorry, though I’ll grant you firsts are a lot easier to get nowadays.

At 34 I got asked what was wrong with me as I was single.. why is being single such a problem? Now 51 and still single :)

PLEEESE tell us 😅

I think you sound great OP. Very funny thread.

@SafeMouse bet he lives with his mummy.

I'm not sure how safe you are safemouse, if you're prioritising cats...

There are no safe mice around my terrors

I cant believe I looked this up, but in my graduating year, 51% of people got a 1st or 2.1, leaving 49% getting a 2.2 or lower.
Not 'significantly below average' but as you were

Haha!! Not entirely sure what my 2 would do when confronted with a mouse. Probably ask it for some dreamies....

Not tight enough. I'm bored now.

No idea. Maybe you are a bit evasive.

Oh dear! It's a man thing. They can't do chit-chat, they bond with their mates by insulting them. Banter. He got nervous and forgot it doesn't work on women. Guess he's blown this one.

Wondering how many of us have read the thread then immediately looked for Malory Towers on iPlayer?!! 😁

Did he enlighten you on how he was going to “fix” you?
😭

I never normally say this about relationships on here but this one deserves a SLING HIM GIRL, run whilst you can

Maybe you missed the post giving the answer?

This has made me chortle - what a wanker 😂. Thanks, OP, soz you had to sit through that!

Need a boob job or some kind of plastic surgery?

Take it as a compliemnent. Despite all your “shortcomings”, he still deems you worthy enough to neg you into dating him.

What a pathetic creature he is.

Years ago I went on a date with a prick who hated cats. I didn't know it when I first met him, he just dropped in to the conversation that all cats needed to be killed with paracetamol, I went to the loo and never returned.....dickhead. I went home and gave my cat an extra cuddle!

These messianic truth tellers will always be decried when they speak the simple truth about troublesome women
I mean
Own flat
Graduate
Cat owner

…Nothing good will come of it. Mend your ways

Think too much of yourself?
