My god, what a liar, & I didnt realise photos could be so inaccurate, lol!
He was hideously ugly, I mean really really ugly, & about 5 inches shorter than he said he was. He wanted to meet up in a supermarket coffee shop "so we can do our shopping afterwards" WTF! He spent the whole time insulting me & everyone else in the place & going on about problems he`d had with previous single mothers asking him to pick up their kids etc etc. He walked me to my car, I gave him a peck on the cheek & he tried to make it more then he text me seconds after id pulled away in my car saying "interested?" I replied once id got home that he was a nice guy, but just as a friend. Thank god he hasnt replied.
Thats one off the list I suppose. LOL!!!!

Thats ok TwoIfBySea, it makes me laugh too.

Met some other desparado yesterday. He was 27 but with a mental age of about 15. Nice car, but he didnt know how to drive it & zero personality. lol! I dont think so, im not into children.

LOL at this thread I once joined a dating site because it was late, I was manic and I had nobody to talk to. For the next 2 months I had a 17 year old who kept emailing me, begging me for sex. "Please, my parents are out" I have since seen him working in Tescos where he tried to avoid my gaze

Then there was Mr Scary who got really aggressive with me because I wouldn't meet him "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, I HAVE A GOOD JOB AND A NICE HOUSE. WHERE AM I GOING TO FIND ANOTHER WOMAN WITH TITS LIKE YOURS?" He then sent me a picture of his willy. Classy Needless to say he is blocked...

My experience of the men on that site is that a lot of them seem desperate. However, I've made two friends who I like very much as people.

Youre right electra, there are loads of desperados on them. I seem to get theones who are virtually asking me to marry them & we havent even met. Whats that about?

LOL - yes I know what you mean. I find that men my age seem to have getting married and settling down woven tightly into the fabric of their thought patterns. It really isn't attractive!

SparklePrincess · 06/08/2008 00:21

Its come as quite a shock to me. Id expect it from a woman of around 35, going on about their need to settle down & have kids, but i really didnt think men did that.

Well, update on my one

Things are going better, he still isn't the chattiest bloke but he has been very open (have home addy, phone no etc) Met once since and I really like him. Am hoping things can move on but he really does work all the hours in a week. He tells me he wants to date

HAve agreed to lay off other people in return for details (also know where he works)

Was concerned he was still married but don't think he is

So am now playing we'll see what happens

SparklePrincess · 07/08/2008 21:00

Fingers crossed for you minorityrules. Im playing too. LOL! So many men so little time. What would my mother think?
