Evening - rofl at ASBM at ea. lol

Cake - Hello, I wouldn't write him off just yet, time will tell rather quickly I'd say. You are after all, on to him, if he's leading you a merry dance, so that's a good thing. I'd give him a chance with very open wide eyes. Very wise words from Juice as always.

Betty - You going to get 4 dates for next week? I bet you could.

Juice - Forces coming back soon?

Lou - lol at pink paws. Awwww.

ASBM - Big wave.

Belle - stop lurking and say hello.

Sponge - any news?

(Lots of grinning going on here tonight).

Had to sit in a meeting for 2 hours today with 20 men. (Tradesmen). Not one, not one had as much as a sparkle. Lol

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/03/2010 20:24

juice i'm afraid so
he's pre-this thread otherwise you'd have all called him mr wanker-bastard man or wb for short
besides working for the csa he also has other issues and i shook him off over 16months ago..never dated him obv!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/03/2010 20:27

meeting sounds rivetting NOT
jeeze not even any eye candy to distract you?!

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 20:35

ASBM - not a one! And I was quite optimistic too.

They just sat around talking about their tools.

It was rivetting NOT .

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/03/2010 20:39

their tools monty?!

lou33 · 23/03/2010 20:41

i do admit to laughing at the paws, just as well she is a girl eh?

tbh wrt the status of what someone says they are looking for, i wouldnt pay any attention,. people get more results by saying they arent looking to fuck about than they are iyswim

of course it doesnt apply to everyone, but i wouldnt take it as gospel

the women throwing themselves at him would have me raising an eyebrow as well, it sounds very arrogant (and probably untrue lol)

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 20:41

Yup, their tools. (Real ones, you know, those things they use to do their work lol).

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 20:44

Cake - I agree with Lou, I'd certainly raise my eyebrows at someone who said that. Makes hims insecure that he would have to say it.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/03/2010 20:44

oh right lol
in that case it must have been a v dull meeting

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 20:45

sound insecure.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/03/2010 20:47

tbh he sounds as tho he's trying to undermine your confidence from what you've said
your posts aren't positive ones without wishing to sound harsh

cake4ever · 23/03/2010 20:48

something else interesting tonight. I had looked him up on Facebook the other day but didn't do anything about it. I mentioned to him on Sunday that I had Facebook and guess what? I just looked him up again to add him and I can no longer find him on there even though I could last week. Can you do something to your settings so that you can't be found?

SingleMum01 · 23/03/2010 20:50

Evening all,

yes you can remove yourself from the search list

cake4ever · 23/03/2010 21:02

do you know what, I think I've decided to not bother with him anymore - getting such bad vibes in my stomach and it's making me feel like crap - not worth it. Why don't I listen to my intuition!!

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 21:06

Cake - disappearing off fb sounds ropey.

ASBM - it was Dullesville personified.

cake4ever · 23/03/2010 21:11

Monty there must have been one that was reasonable! One with a nice body or a good smile - no??? These days I seem to be able to find something attractive about most men!! Desperate I guess.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/03/2010 21:13

cake from my own often bitter experience any bloke who makes you wonder isn't worth it
like monty says he sounds ropey

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 21:15

Cake - no, and I perved looked hard.

I decided they'd fallen off the pages of Smooch.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/03/2010 21:19

have never looked at smooch
is it really that bad?

LouIsOnAHighwayToHell · 23/03/2010 21:23

Evening all

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 21:26

ASBM - IMO Smooch is the epitomy of photos of men with fish, cars, no shirt, table full of beers on holiday, text speak, bad spelling, bad grammer, you name it, it's got it on there. When I was on there there was one called 'WIFEWANTED'. Ohmigod weird.

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 21:27

Oh and of course I forgot the football shirts.

Hi Lou - how's things.

LouIsOnAHighwayToHell · 23/03/2010 21:31

Hi Monty - finsihed work before 10pm so that was nice. Back online and forgot about all the wierdoes that contact you. I am trying to lack for my trip too which is not happenng well. Yourself?

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/03/2010 21:35

hehehehe ohhh i'd forgotten all those things lol
WIFEWANTED!wtf?!
actually it's almost pitiful really isn't it?
is that your worst ever online profile name?
think we should compile a list..!

Monty100 · 23/03/2010 21:36

Lou - about trip. When are you off?

All quiet here. Thank goodness!
