Anyone doing or done the internet dating thing?

Getting sick of spending all my time alone. I never go out anywhere to meet anyone though so at the moment it seems this is the only way to go.

Have tried it a few times before but never had much luck, I've never put much effort in though and have always done half arsed profiles and usually no pic

I hate internet dating, especially the free ones.

Too many players and too much hurt. Friends??> Nah, they just block you on msn and fb anyways. Longest relationship I've had thru internet dating is 4 months..thru friendsreuniteddating. Nice bloke...turned out he was still married WTF is wrong with these people?

Just someone to hold would be nice enough.....

I have a dilema

A friend of mine (not close but in a circle I socialise with) told me of a dating site and how good it was

So I joined up and have been conversing with a few nice men. One really has caught my eye

Then I meet up with friend and she shows me pics of guy she likes and it's the same one!

Now part of me thinks back off, the other part of me says alls fair in love and war and leave it to him to decide which one he likes or not

And my inner bitch is thinking, I know this friend is only looking for a fun time and gets through men at a rate of knots! (6 'relationships' this year alone and one night stands nearly every weekend and a trail of unhappy/used men..she goes same places every week and has been through the bar)

I'm no angel but am looking to date, not sow my wild oats

What would you do?

Lmccrean · 16/10/2008 09:20

I would back off probably. If your friend found out you had dated him, it could turn out pretty bad. (and if there was a chance she had got with him for one night, would you want to date him?)

lou33 · 16/10/2008 10:08

i'd tell her he has been messaging you as well, you dont have nothing to hide and neither of you have any kind of claim on him

then tell him you seem to have a friend in common

lou33 · 16/10/2008 10:09

you dont have anything to hide

Quick update on my Will Young look-a-likey; he got all stroppy and weird about me having male friends over in the evenings, so we had a bit of a barney.
Then he announced that we are not "exclusive" and he would like to see other people. So i said i am not fine with that, and he asked if i still wanted to be his friend, and i said no.
The end.

Tosser.

AGBU I'm so sorry.
I know it's better to know now, and all that - but I am sure it still does hurt. Hope you're going to indulge yourself this weekend.

allgonebellyup · 17/10/2008 21:45

ooh we have made up now.
I think he was having a bit of a jealous fit, he just rang me saying he wants me to be his girlfriend (sound like 13yr olds) and he was just being a prat.

lou33 · 18/10/2008 13:24

so what are you going to do?

allgonebellyup · 18/10/2008 20:28

lol
well he is here now at my place for the weekend, cooking me dinner!

mm just had lovely sex too.
Think he has got his little jealousy problem under control at mo!

ooh he is cute!

lou33 · 18/10/2008 21:32

as long as you remember that the jealousy is his issue and dont let him attach it to you
