WG -don't rate the rules

Get Christian Carter stuff sent to my hotmail but he seems to talk in riddles

kdk · 16/01/2010 22:48

Anyway, night all, I'm knackered and got to put together a scheme of work and a rationale tomorrow plus plan a lesson ... oh and cook Sunday lunch, get the kids' school uniforms/ballet/football kit washed, do tonight's wsshing up .... note to self, stop wasting time on dating sites etc and get on with stuff.

kdk · 16/01/2010 22:53

And the Rules are crap in my completely non-judgemental opinion - just contribute to the already confused and confusing mire that is dating - why can't we all stop playing games and treat each other like adults - although I'm the first to admit I need to take my own advice!

I really am going to bed now.

whethergirl · 16/01/2010 22:56

Yeh, I was all excited when I actually read the rules but now just annoyed by it and can't be arsed to be anything other than myself. And Christian Carter - a friend bought one of his ebooks and she sent it to me. I couldn't read it cos I hate the way he writes, it takes him 2 paragraphs to tell you one simple thing.

ninah · 16/01/2010 23:02

the rules - well the whole premise of 'bagging a man' seems rather distasteful to me, I'd rather it was a meeting of equals
and I hate all the game playing shit - not that I've read the book or anything but have seen it come up on here
Have to admit I got the free Christian Carter stuff and I thought he wrote that way so you ended up paying to get the real gen - but it seems he just writes that way lol
I did find it quite interesting though and what he says about being happy with your own life first is vital imo
not that I know anything about it lol, but I am happy, and I'm not all that bothered about men atm
Get off thread ninah kdk has just reminded you you haven't washed school unis or any other necessary weekend tasks

aseriouslyblondemoment · 16/01/2010 23:03

nn kdk and don't leave us again
wg i don't know who christian carter is
have read the rules and tho v.outdated in many ways and not wholly applicable i think it does make alot of sense
the main thing being self respect
but it really depends upon how you interpret it

ninah · 16/01/2010 23:05

Christian bless him is a 'dating guru' who has grilled loads of men on what they really think about women

aseriouslyblondemoment · 16/01/2010 23:06

let's hope he didn't grill any of our exs then!!

ninah · 16/01/2010 23:07

that's a truly horrible thought

whethergirl · 16/01/2010 23:26

That kind of stuff has to be taken with a pinch of salt I think, but some truths are there. Am starting to think that men DO like the chase and that we sometimes kill it for them.

On another note, came off dating site just now feeling hopeless, went on facebook to see this gorgeous hunk asking to be my friend. Turns out he is an old childhood friend of mine, we were very close friends but it all went a bit embarassing cos his mum tried to matchmake us when we were about 16. He was fond of me but he was always the geeky awkward fat git and I just never fancied him. Flippin eck has he changed!! WELL fit, rippling muscles and all. And FB says he is SINGLE. Not that i'm shallow OR getting carried away....

whethergirl · 16/01/2010 23:28

He's even got these lovely tribal tattoos which I'm a sucker for! He's added my mum as a friend too....and I know she'll be on the phone anytime soon saying how good looking he is and do I remember when he fancied me...

whethergirl · 16/01/2010 23:39

Feel bad for calling him a geeky awkward fat git - don't even know where the git came from, I didn't even mean to put that in. Well he WAS geeky and awkward, and overweight, but not a git.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 17/01/2010 00:11

have to admit i'm old fashioned at heart and think men should chase but have to admit to chasing once myself and it didn't work..however once i no longer seemed interested lo and behold he was!
wg another option for you!
in the spirit of this thread he must have a name lol
and alot of obv ones have TM,s
btw which site are you using?
i ask as you mentioned vm and i know some sites offer this

whethergirl · 17/01/2010 00:22

Yep, have had the same experience asbm but no chase can go on forever can it!

I'm using POF, I meant he left a vm on my mobile. I also went on the Time Out site but...like so many others, realised after spending FOREVER doing a profile that actually you have to subscribe to reply to anyone. Altho they do let you send one of their standard oneliners such as "I'd love to get in touch, but I don't have a subscription!"

Are you on any sites?

I've emailed Fit Friend and eagerly wait for his reply!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 17/01/2010 00:41

oh mine is a v.long and complicated story lol
but shortly after my meeting again with said man, i met who was to become my now dp
would say bf but i think a) i'm too old.and b)we're kind of beyond the purely dating thing iyswim
but i only ever used frd
but most of the girls on here are pof users and juicy is our pof beacon lol
but as she always maintains it's because of her locality etc that there's so much choice

Remotew · 17/01/2010 11:54

Hi everyone, will catch up later. Did I just say on Friday night that no men on my horizon? That all changed when Salesman invited me to his last night. He lives 10 miles away so I stopped over. Just got home with a massive grin on my face. Salesman aka Mr Cool has rang me 3 times this morning. Seems like a good sign. Had an amazing night.

Just wanted to share. Welcome to Wethergirl.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 17/01/2010 12:09

yay!!

whethergirl · 17/01/2010 12:17

Thanks abouteve, and good to hear. It's a lovely feeling when someone takes an interest in you, so enjoy!

sincitylover · 17/01/2010 12:44

ooh eve great news - your life can turn on a sixpence LOL

Betty79 · 17/01/2010 13:05

yay eve! glad u had a great night and sounds like there is more to come with 3 phone calls in one morning

kdk · 17/01/2010 14:10

Ok - who thinks I'm going to meet up with this guy after this message:

"I'm sorry re that photo of ex and daughter without ME ! My profile needsd some attention ... i'm recently divorced but Not recently separated. ... I sincerely apologise. I shouldn't have written last night.
I don't know what gives you the impression I haven't moved on, my psychoananlsyt, a lady who is a senior supervising analyst at the Institute of Psychoanalysis and whom is reknowned, thinks I have been ready for over a year ; the fling/thing with the doctor was unfortunate because unknown to herself she was a deeply co-dependent sort. I accept that since you don't know me it's passes for fair comment, but I'm two years past the hurting stage.

I'd like to chat more then meet."

Think I'll suggest he chats with his psychoananlsyt!

Hey, bloody ho.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 17/01/2010 14:28

WTF??
is this the boden man?!

kdk · 17/01/2010 14:36

No this is some other random fuckwit of PoF - I just seem to attract them! He messaged me some incoherent crap yesterday - I queried a lot of it and that above was his response. Why am I not overwhelmed by the urge to reply?

Think I'm staying well away from Boden Man but if anyone else fancies having a go, be my guest!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 17/01/2010 15:14

oh dear
consider it a lucky escape tho kdk,imagine what his poor exw must have had to put up with
