So I signed up for Plenty Of Fish

[GreenDemon]

Is there any way to set my profile thingy so that it says on there that I am interested in men between x & y ages, or should I just write it in my bit about me?

I'm sure that the older blokes who have contacted me are lovely, but at 29, I don't really want to meet up with 40yr old men.

How do I reply saying "you're too old" without being a bitch? Or is being a bitch par for the course with these things?

(I'm a regular btw, just don't want family etc knowing about this part of my life just yet)

Urm....

is there anything I can do about someone sending abusive texts messages after giving them my number from pof?

Keep the messages and show them to the police. Not nice to have abusive text messages.

all because he thought I had blocked him, turns out he had the wrong person.
Has put me off internet dating me thinks

And, and I have wished cancer upon him wtf is wrong with some people???

There's nothing weird about not wanting to be involved with someone else's kids. before I had children, a single father wouldn't have pressedmy buttons, no matter how nice he was. I was selfish until i had my own, and too intolerent to make a pleasant partner to someone with children,.

I was on POF and refused to consider anyone who didn't have children. My BF says he was looking or a single mother after his last girlfriend didn't 'get' that you can't just fuck off round the world for 6 months and still expect your children to want to see you when you get back.

I'm on it. Got a date this week...started another thread on the 'Relationship' section. Have a look!

I don't know whether to go and don't know what to make of it all yet!!!

My friend met her husband on it and said I should give it a go. I did, just out of curiosity really.

Anybody else been on a date yet...what was it like??

Colditz - I just reread my message and that wasn't what I meant - I meant it was weird that they had contacted me when on my profile I said I have 2 kids. That isn't how I made it sound though.

lilackaty I've had the same. I've been 'winked' at by men who have had the answer none next to 'should she have children'.

It's mad isn't it? I don't like match but I think it's because noone has shown any interest which makes me very shallow!

lol I've had a couple of dates from there but no luck so far.

Well, I have been messed around on pof which upset me ridiculously but I find match really hard to navigate. Hope you all have more luck than I do.

ladies... do you wait for people to contact you? or do you contact them first?

Met my furture husband on this sight... If I remember rightly, I put in how far I wanted to travel... saw his pic on his profile, thought, what a nice young man...sent him a friendly message to which he responded, we emailed, then moved on to texting, then we chatted on the phone... for hours at a time! I think you can really get to know someones personality enough to know if you'd get on..

I did get people contacting me and I always replied to them, even the 60 year old man who sent me a picture of himself wearing only shorts mowing his lawn... lol
as someone said.. nothing like a nutter to brighten your day!

hope it works out for you ladies... he was the only person I contacted, and I only joined the site because I like the look of him

I usually wait for them to message me but I have been brave and messaged a couple in the last few days.
I am really not sure about internet dating and am so wary now.

pof was ok for me, i didnt find my bf on there but i had lots of dates with v normal guys, some of whom i am still in touch with as friends

I've contacted and been contacted. The man I had a date with last Saturday, was from Eharmony and I contacted him first.

POF is vile!!
Join pay sites they are a little better!!
