I really am the only person who hasn't even had the chance of a date aren't I ? Am beginning to think I have an invisible (to me) second head or something.

Might buy wine today, and give plentyoffish yet another go later.

charliecat · 25/08/2007 08:56

You deleted your account nutty Your not going to get a date that way are you?
I did too after my date.

nutcracker · 25/08/2007 08:57

LOL, I know, but have joined several times and never get anything worth following up.

Plus I was on Smooch site for quite a while and nothing there either, and I am also on a few others.

Sound desperate now don't I ? lol

PSML, just a bit No youve got to dangle your rod in many waters to find your fish

nutcracker · 25/08/2007 09:10

I know, I have zero patience at the mo.

God i am sat here again, when I am supposed to be getting dressed, popping to the shop, tidying up and doing lunch, all in time for 1pm when my friend picks me up for dress fitting ARGH.

charliecat · 25/08/2007 09:12

I didnt get out till 5pm yesterday. If your out at 1pm your doing well IMO.
Right now I am dressed and heading out the door avoiding the housework...that I ingnored yesterday too lol

zippitippitoes · 25/08/2007 09:20

I have decided it's all a non starter..but that is age related i'm sure no chance at my age of finding anyone

I'm chatting to two people as I decided one bloke was married and i didn't fancy him anyway..and one of them is just talking to me from politeness I'm sure and the other is really interested in sex but is nice and has moved to turkey and I'm sure he is chatting to loads of people

so pretty much thinking it's a waste of time at my age

the plentyoffish people in this area are awful

nutcracker · 25/08/2007 09:32

Zippi, my mum is nearly 60 and still has lots of blokes interested in her.

I think plentyoffish is just not a very good site. Yeah it is free, but I think it attracts the wrong type of blokes for me. They are all either only after sex, or they message me without reading my profile and then ignore me when they realise I have 3 kids.

lifebeginstoday · 25/08/2007 09:38

zippi...how old are you????

zippitippitoes · 25/08/2007 09:40

I deleted my profile from plentyoffish..not that i did it really properly..just seemed to get mails saying ruhot

the guardian site is nice but people i contact just don't reply...I think it's partly geography

and the ones that have written to me are just old men

apart from the three I mentioned...chatting to someone about nothing on msn who now lives in turkey is fine but it is not going to get me out of thew house lol

middle aged blokes who are looking for women just look like tubby no hopers to me

I am just used to dp being different and younger so he is 39...I just have to face up to that isn't going to happen again and it's hard especially as I still love him

nutcracker · 25/08/2007 09:41

Zippi

I just think that what I want isn't out there.

Mind you, I did get told I was setting my sights to high.

lou33 · 25/08/2007 09:44

pof has been ok for me, no badly written porn, tho i do state in my profile i dont want htat

not had anyone asking to bend me over like cc, lol, i am laughing imagining her response to that!

i've met a couple of guys from there but i'm not seeing either again, there wasnt really anything wrong with them, they just werent quite my type

i have an after wedding party today so maybe i will find some new victims there! tho unlikely as i have cajoled a male friend into driving down from oldham to escort me

zippitippitoes · 25/08/2007 09:45

sorry just having a very depressing week..dp did all this staying friends business and seeing me etc etc and now he has met someone first he said he still wanted to see me every week and just text him etc and then within a couple of days it's like I don't exist..obviously just wanted to carry on seeing me until he found someone else

nutcracker · 25/08/2007 09:46

I think I am just too shy and blokes don't like shy do they.

zippitippitoes · 25/08/2007 09:48

I think some do..do you mean ones you meet or ones online?

nutcracker · 25/08/2007 09:50

Either zippi, although amn yet to meet any in the flesh as Asda and the school playground aren't exactly over flowing LOL.

Thing is, I know that once I get to know someone that I am fine, but getting past the exruciating shyness bit first seems to be a huge stumbling block for me and them. It takes me a while to warm up even on msn if it is someone I don't normally speak to.

lou33 · 25/08/2007 09:51

go at your own pace nutty, get to know them until you feel ok then meet, if anyone cant understand that then they should just sod off really

zippitippitoes · 25/08/2007 09:52

well I'm like that too and no chance of going out as I don't have anyone to go out with..male or female

nutcracker · 25/08/2007 10:19

Very true Lou

Zippi I am the same, I never ever go out, unless it is the school run, food shopping, or occasionally lunch and shopping with my mum.
That is one of the reaons I want a job, so I can improve my social life.

nutcracker · 25/08/2007 12:04

Right, have signed up on plentyoffish again, so we'll see

charliecat · 25/08/2007 12:14

Ive just followed my half naked gardener up the road...dribble.

lou33 · 25/08/2007 12:37

and...?

charliecat · 25/08/2007 12:53

and I adjusted tits and looked at him. And he smiled and i smiled, then i stood in shop gazing thru shutters admiring him hoping you couldnt see IN the shop as clearly as I could see out the shop.
Stalker. lol
