With online dating I have had (in brief, there's more!);
A woman who'd stayed over leave me in bed and go to sleep in the spare room, when I woke in the morning and went to see where she'd gone, I realised I was sodden. She'd weed the bed and left me in her pee. She seemed to think that this was absolutely fine!
A woman turn up with her dog despite me saying this couldn't happen under any circumstances. She was due to stay over and said she had a sitter. I adore dogs, but I had a dog at the time who didn't get on with other dogs mostly and if we were to see one another and have a relationship that continued, I'd said we needed a proper, safe, gradual introduction.
Anyway she turned up having driven for two or more hours, with her dog and when I protested said she'd arrived early(before I finished work) so she'd already gone and had a couple of drinks at the pub, so couldn't drive home. I began working out at what time she'd be safe to drive but she laughed this suggestion off, guilt tripped me and said it'd be fine.
It wasn't. While we slept, my dog (who I'd shut in a downstairs room but who was a large, strong breed and had got out) went for her dog. We separated them quickly (well, I did!) despite being half asleep. I slept downstairs with my dog for the rest of the night.
The next morning my date, in a (in my opinion far too dramatic a) panic, bundled her dog into the car and drove straight off. She rang me, slurring and panicking and asked me to book her dog into her vet which she gave me the name of.
She turned out to be an alcoholic. I hadn't known as our dates up until then had involved drinks, but I didn't realise she was continuing once I was asleep. She'd been drunk that morning when she drove home!
Dog was fine, thankfully as I felt very guilty about that!
I had a compulsive liar too, you name it she'd done it-some things were totally implausible and so far-fetched and it was quite sad, she was a nice person and I didn't need a high-achieving hero, I just wanted someone nice who would share life with me, but I couldn't trust anything she said!
An over-stayer. Due to spend the night together, asked nicely if she could stay for the weekend. I was actually okay with that. I wasn't okay with the next day and the next and the next... That was awkward and difficult.
Anyway. That'll do for now!
I dated someone for a long time who, things were great in the beginning. Then she began to blow hot and cold and treat me very badly-that did a lot of damage and I have firmed up my boundaries and am now very cynical and very 'no nonsense'.
Being single isn't that bad, so I've discovered. Well at least when compared to the alternative!
