...Who i met on an online dating site

He is 28 (i am 22)
He is a lorry driver through an agency
He can't spell (or, in fact even talk properly, for example, when talking on the phone he keeps saying 'somefink' instead of 'something'
Uses txt spk all the time
Seems to want to talk about DS alot, it could just be that he does love kids, or is just shy and wanted something to talk about, but none the less
He wants to meet up straight away
He wants to 'pick me and my son up'
After talking to him for 5 mins he wants to know whether or not i like him??? how the hell do i know?
He still goes to 'hang out' with his friends!

Oh yeah, and he still lives with his parents

I couldn't get him off the phone and now i have i am going to change my number (i have a stack of sim cards due to a rather persistant XP [bwink}] )

People who talk about settling down with someone they have 'encountered' on a dating site and haven't even met yet are waaaaaaay too desperate. Avoid.

I wont go for a finker at all...ugh!

trust your gut instinct and act on that.

Next time he asks if you like him say 'No, I really don't actually! Please do not ring me again.' and put the phone down.

i'd avoid like the plague.
but on a side not, what's wrong with "hanging out" with friends?

Don't meet him. I cringe when people can't spell or speak properly. Not mastering another language is acceptable but not mastering your own isn't.
