Update - where’s the new Guardian Soulmates?

[Snowfish79]

Having stumbled upon the above topic via dear Google…. I wonder if any wise and informed persons have an answer?

I may be shot for being a boy, in a girls’ place…. Please make it quick 🙏🏻

Why would anybody know if you're male or female on an anonymous forum?

If you think a site called Mumsnet is populated by “girls”, I’d suggest you give online dating sites a swerve lest your hard drive gets seized.

Depends what you think Soulmates was good for. It was the one place I got scammed.

I suppose Hinge felt the nearest to it. But I wouldn't call women 'girls' there either.

Because I’m open, and I said I was male 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks for your warm welcome, humour, and helpful response 👍🏻

I’m going to assume that nobody on mumsnet ever has a boyfriend or girlfriend, is super defensive, hates men and thinks there’s a ‘pedo’ lurking behind every bush. Good to know 🙏🏻

What on earth are you wittering about?

What is your AIBU?

Are you hoping you get lots of messages off women asking you to meet them or message them?

Eh?

Clearly the OP thinks his sparkling charm and wit will have all us simpering little girlies swooning
or something

Thanks for that. I guess Soulmates seemed to be a ‘place’ where you could meet thinking, intelligent, left-leaning people with a sense of humour?

I had always thought a ‘girl’ or ‘boy’ was required in order to have a ‘girlfriend’ or ‘boyfriend’ - age not relevant - I’ll have to recheck my notes on that👍🏻

Bad luck on getting scammed…. I didn’t realise that was an option 😬

You're a little late, Snowfish - Guardian Soulmates closed four years ago ("unviable"), and I don't see any sign of a reincarnation.

Guardian Soulmates has come to an end

(I found that link on Google.)

Eh. Everyone knows lefties don't have a sense of humour

🤣🤣🤣

I think the question is quite clear?

A female asked the same thing about six months ago and a healthy discussion followed. I post and get only criticism and abuse…. What a friendly bunch you are 👍🏻

I never touched Tinder because I wanted to avoid dating anybody in my immediate neighbourhood (my source of support and friends). But if that doesn't bother you, why not go straight to the motherlode?

You can usually spot who might be considered leftish, or at least less right wing. Float a couple of political carrots and see how they respond.

Thanks, I was aware…. I was wondering if people had found an ‘alternative’ 🤷🏻‍♂️

It's a sport Snowfish. Like when you'd get a suppy teacher at school and the class would spend an hour torturing them.

Are you Martin Goodman, OP?

Yes. Exactly

A female asked the same thing about six months ago and a healthy discussion followed. I post and get only criticism and abuse…. What a friendly bunch you are 👍🏻

You honestly thought twinkly patronising bollocks would land well in a "girls" site?

Andhonestly pack it in with the "fake self effacement followed by bristling followed by attack" mode. It's dated and unattractive to the left leaning blah blahs you appear to be seeking.

Menz. Everywhere.

Try Pistonheads.

Mr Snowfish you appear to be being deliberately churlish. Are you crossed in love?

The salient issue is that you don't have a question that is BU. So YABU.

Yeah, I can see why you’re struggling to meet someone.

We are not being “friendly.” Apparently we should be.

Be kind, and all that goldiwank.
