where the hell do u find a good man

[starscream]

where have they all gone

it does, I don't talk about him really - normally they know I have him and that's all, I call him my son or the boy, don't say his name etc. obv this chap knows his name thou.

here you can stop me looking like a total plank

here

i had a pic of me with my dgs as my profile pic on pof and no one actually asked if he was my son so that was rather ambiguous

i assume they thought it was mine son

bf doesnt actually know i am a grandma

well he might have guessed but im not sure i have a cr seat in my car and he hasnt asked whose it is

If I knew where to find them I'd be there myself!

Can anyone enlighten me as to what POF is please? Several people have mentioned it...

www.plentyoffish.com

dating website
which quite a few mners have had experiences of good and not so good

I've met a very nice one from POF. Yes, really! It's very early days so who knows how it will turn out but they ARE out there.

He is a bit younger than me, no complaints there though as he is absolutely gorgeous

so thats three of us on this thread with a pof

Yes, I can definitely recommend it.

I have been on several dating sites and can honestly say I was very pleasantly surprised by POF. Especially as its free.

I too am (was) upfront about being a single mum, I didn't make a big deal of it IYSWIM but neither did I hide it.

zippi you must be a glamourous gran!!

I can't get on with POF at all, i just attract the wrong type on there.

Tbh I have had zero luck with any dating sites, so have knocked them on the head.

Dd2's best friends dad, asked me today if i'd pulled on the hen weekend I went on, and he did look surprised when I said no, so I don't know what it is exactly that I do wrong as people I know seem to think I should have no trouble finding someone.

well of course because you are lovely

Am in a wasteland here too. I don't even see likely suspects around the place either. So I'm going to the wrong places (mostly the park actually, maybe that's the problem!) or Devon is dry.
Isn't there a town in Texas that's advertising for women for all the men, they have a 20:1 ratio or something? Now a big hunky Southern gentleman type with a few thousand acres, that'll do

i did throw the net pretty wide tho both age and geography wise

if i had stuck to someone my age where i live that would have been crap

someone halkf my age living in london is much better

Aww thakns Zippi, i'll pay you later

thanks

it's a shame we ar enot all closer.. could have had a single MNers night out on the pull

They come along when you arent looking as I have found out, have got 3 fella's interested in me & believe it or not they are not after one thing but unfortunatly I am not interested in them in a relationship way, so there is good ones out there.

nutty is rather understandably shit scared of nmeeting me

I've never used an internet dating site, but know lots of people have had success with them.

I met my lovely man in a bar. We were both having a Christmas night out with friends, and I kind of walked right into him on my way to the toilet!

I am scared of meeting my own shadow at the mo Zippi

I've met zippi, and she seemed pretty harmless!

oh yes pc ois lovely

i was desperate to steal her handbag but at that point wasnt drunk enough

i still swear my drink was spiked

You did have a good night didn't you, zippi?!

Was that my little green bag?

it was a very nice small expensive looking bag

in fact i believe it had alabel on it saying this is an expensive bag

well i had an expensive night my ankle is still noit right and that was 1st december which was a long time ago

in fact i think the 2nd of december was the last time i saw the twat from pof

as opposed to the nice bf

If it was my little green one (which I think it was), a friend bought me it for my birthday from Camden market. I love my little green bag!

Not good about your ankle, but pleased to hear you have found yourself a nice bf to massage it for you!

Can someone remind me of the other free dating sites, apart from POF.

theres one women date for free or something I think.

face party. (not used it thou)

tippy - if there was one like that about i'd have snapped him up by now!

jan - I think that's part of the key isn't it to be upfront but not give too much away when it comes to the little ones. I was once talking to someone on the datingforparents.com who didn't have a child but was saying I really like you and I want you and your son to live with me - (within about 5 mins of speaking - needless to say he was blocked and I left the site) you have to be so careful not only with yourself but your child as well.

oh nutty - give POF another try with a revamped name and all, I didn't have anyone nice at all first time around, second time and within a few hours this new chappy and I were on MSN having a riot!
