its just a thought which has been pondered upon by a few of us on here
as Lou 33 said if she knew the answer then she wouldn't be on MN

lou33 · 03/02/2009 14:30

if you havent promised them anything you havent let them down

just tell them you arent able to meet them for the forseeable

he's boring
have chatted to him for a while but he just doesn't get me
he's also slated my taste in music as hes a 70s rock crapband lover and i'm an indie girl
i can't believe that hes only 3 yrs older than me he's such a fogey
don't know why he's trying actually
hes not bad looking as i say just not me

Lou LMAO!

lordy wish i could take that approach but i can't
yes i know i should get a grip my RL friends keep telling me

just delete him from your contacts and make sure you block them as you do. then you'll just appear constantly offline and you wont feel bad for ignoring his messages as you wont even know he's tried.

as for valentines. i'm so used to not getting/doing anything that i suppose its not going to really bother me this yr. just the way the shops rub it in your face everywhere you go that does my head in. but will check out other thread just now.

i have only got something for valentines properly. when i say properly as in i never got it myself.i mean one whereby i had no idea what it was....once. when i was 16

lou33 · 03/02/2009 15:06

honestly i dont understand why you just cant change your mind and stop talkign to him?

elmoandella · 03/02/2009 15:07

asbm - what if you were to meet him and the RL chemistry was fab. you can get on like a house on fire with msn. but when you meet them in RL it's dudd. so why not the opposite. perhaps he finds msn/text awkward...or a bit detached.

i have a feeling that you will be with the banker somehow
or maybe will be sent some of divers latest haul
mmmm seafood platter yes please!

diver wanted to meet on friday. but cancelled as arranged to meet banker. diver is far too far away. and when he goes out to dive he's unreachable for 3-7 days. which i find a bit odd.

good banter though from diver. but a bit of a let down when i found out what i thought was a macho divr actually turned out to be a big wimp. he's scared of heights. so still no ariel assault course.

and RL chemistry has only happened to me with men i already got on well with prior to meeting
ok will discount that errant exbf
but another bloke gosh
meeting with a man i dont have a positive vibe from prior spells disaster to me
it also gives him false hope
my friends think i should as im need of a good nite out apparently!
but yes Lou will be altering my msn settings now

Lol at diver!
you don't want the LDR thing then?

OP posts:
elmoandella · 03/02/2009 15:19

well men i've met in RL and had great chemistry with have been absolutely hopeless online and in text and in calls. had that twice. one of which didn't have a mobile as he hated them.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 03/02/2009 15:21

had you met them in RL first?
and that mobile thing again
reminds me of crock of shite i was told

OP posts:
elmoandella · 03/02/2009 15:23

yeah, met in RL first. i must admit. my mobile does my head in some days too. i've been known to leave it at home

elmoandella · 03/02/2009 15:25

does msn log you in and out if you dont use it. when i was off computer doing craft stuff i left computer on and noticed it signing in and out periodically?? or is this just my wireless playing up?

lou33 · 03/02/2009 15:29

think mine does if my pc goes into stand by and gets woken up again

Original poster
aseriouslyblondemoment · 03/02/2009 15:30

thats different then
what i type reflects how i talk/think and if i was unable to receive the same back then i would have doubts
yes i do appreciate that some people might be reserved on msn and yes i am a bit of a chatterbox
but conversation does just flow with the right person
a text is just a short message after all
i dont like voicemail tho
like receiving them tho!
