where have all the fit, interesting and available men gone (part 18)

[DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE]

part 18.... jeeze 17 threads have past...17 threads worth of dating excitment/disasters.

wonder what number 18 will bring

any predictions anyone?

wedding/co-habitation for someone must be due by now.

betty.

ok girls, what's happened to the chat on POF?

I don't want to date, or email, but chatting to someone on the im thingy might be nice, and the chat room thingys are well I can't keep up with those they're full of weirdos. any thoughts? (have no intention of meeting anyone I might add - dating boots still firmly ont he shelf)

dont think there is a chat thing anymore, I've never used it anyway.

Well I'm having a dilema now, just added bloke who's older on fb and his latest pics...well lets just say he really needs a hair cut!! Wud it be mean to cancel on him now??!

betty you can cut hair
you can't GROW it but that's another story lol
give him a chance
might be an old picture
you remind me of juicy going on a date with some lovely geezer 'but his hair was FUNNY'
meeting someone in the flesh gives you a much better idea if you could fancy them or not
if you could, the hair will be of little importance, as I say you can change it
if you could NOT, you will look at his hair all dinner and come back with a juicy like comment
give it a go! in a way it's less nerve racking to go on a date where you don't have so much as stake, you know like an interview for a job you're not sure you want you always feel more relaxed, whereas if you think you want it badly the pressure's on and it's stressy
How bad is it btw? Brian May?

lol ninah u had me laughing at that, dunno if it's just the hair tho tbh he's dressed v old fashioned and just not really my type! Arghh he looked diff on his pof pic, but then dont a lot of them!

ninah - that was beachbum.. remember originally his hair put me off. i still talk to him and see him . been a while mind you!

go for it betty.your not looking to keep him for life.

just an evening for his chat

belle - get yacking with eligible weirdos

oh yeah so it was j! he was quite a good one too
betty you can change his clothes he's not like those action man with the painted on vests (well don't steer him into gap and rip off his threads first date obv, esp not the latter lol but all that stuff is negotiable)
at least he's not a player lol
sounds like first date nerves to me
someone on here has a good story about escaping through a loo window
does he know what you look like? otherwise you can scope him out and run if nec (don't wear crown on date, too conspicuous)
yes belle, weiros! the more the merrier
a good date's good date, a bad date's entertainment for those of us who haven't got one lined up! think of yourselves as Gladiators of Luurve

Betty, give him a chance. He might have sorted his hair out by the time you get to meet.

I've just about survived another late night out. Went for a fabulous meal, friends bailed out early but once again I had my party head on. It was ok as there were plenty of people I could stay and chat to. Found a waif & stray propping up the bar who kept me company, he was married and not my type but his mate, well he was cute as can be. He'd had an argument with the arrogant bar manager so was kicked out! Yes I know! Met him outside and he came back later to share a taxi home. He invited me for a nightcap then didn't have his key and couldn't wake his flat mate. It was either let him sleep rough or let him have my sofa. I'm soft so he stayed on the sofa. Woke DD up and she was quite rightly annoyed.

Once I'd explained she was OK. Got up early this morning to kick him out. This guy was much younger than me, think Madonna, I didn't know whether to kiss him or adopt him. I thought he would bolt once he caught site of me and my wrinkles, wearing my cosy dressing gown. Cheeky monkey looked at me, said make us a cuppa, can I put the TV on and check my emails?

Got rid of him reluctantly eventually. This evening DD answered the door. We were expecting family round. He was on the doorstep looking nervous and asked if I had found his cash card!! Just as the family turned up. Bad timing, I hadn't got his cash card so off he went. Don't think I will see him again.

Oh well it was fun while it lasted.

aaahQ! why are my nights out not like that?
sounds brill eve ...

take back brill
betty - if long hair bloke says brill you know it's a lost cause

eve - i laughed out loud at him turning up for cash card. lol

I know, Never a dull moment when I hit the town. It's not often I go out but when I do I make the most of it. I cannot decide whether I should never be let out again or if I should go out more often.

He was sooooo cute and a much notable difference to Salesman in the hmm (whispers)lower region dept. That's what 30 yrs younger does. Will point out it was only a kiss and a cuddle. I'm not that daft, damn!

go out more often

Ninah I couldn't stand the pace, I'm knocking on a bit now. Also the night out cost me a fortune. I need my weekends for R&R.

Got five days of work ahead of me now instead of my normal four. Hopefully I will have recovered by tomorrow morning.

Betty have you firmed up any dates yet?

knocking on shuddup already! worth every penny
I'm 43 you know ...
I've been out twice. Once to Ikea. Once to Ikea to get my mobile which I dropped at Ikea.

AND I spent a fortune on window blinds
face it eve, you've got it

Well I'd already agreed to meet this bloke wed, and was trying to sort a sitter to meet 2nd bloke on fri, but dont know what to do now? I know u all keep saying give him a chance but his latest pics remind me of jaws(from the bond movies) oh I'm horrible arent I! Plus the fact It's costs me to meet him, and is it worth paying a sitter if i really dont think he's my type? now the second bloke is def nicer looking but havent really chatted much, pretty much asked to meet for a drink straight off!?

Betty, I can see your dilemma. Having to pay a baby sitter. If it was going to be easier I would say meet them both. Photo's can be deceptive though. I've met a few guy who I thought were good looking on the photo's but didn't fancy them in RL. It hasn't happened the other way round, must admit. One I thought looked only OK but I really liked him in the flesh.

Ninah, Window blinds, now that's what I should be buying too.

Where are you? I'll meet him lol

seriously now, could you meet him on a no cost basis?like a quick coffee?

Yes Betty, what about a lunch date with first guy?

damn it lol. am now chatting to a nice chap from manchester thou thru a chat thingy. the flirt! made me smile thou. lol. and web cams - but kept it clean. some random old bloke. none eligible tbh but has been ok to chat for an evening made a change. (one's being pushy about my number thou - what do we say to those - all I want is MSN chat fgs, no texting no fb msn only)

betty - agree hair can be changed if needed, it's the person for me mostly tbh.

lets have a good laugh at the weirdos I think - time to sit safely this side of my laptop & not give anything away I think - time to start playing the game again.

any takers for a 41 year old man in the new forest who's taken a keen interest!?!

eve

betty - if you're paying a baby sitter etc etc, then I see your dilema - is it possible to put him off to a time when you wouldn't have to have a sitter & also only do coffee?

so have reactivated my POF account again, but no emails on there - maybe I should delete it & do a fresh one with new pics etc? if you care to have a look thou it's pompeylass13, any opinions are welcome (have no new pics thou of me so those are like 18 months to 2 years old)

betty - 2nd vote for something cheap and cheerful instead of full date to see if you like him

i've met a couple of were better in RL

the diver
beachbum
forces
superman

you gotta take the chance.

New Forest is too far from me. Belle, webcams, make sure you do keep it clean. I have chatted to one or two with the web cam on. I always make it clear before I accept that there won't be any funny business. Once I didn't and he was sat stark bollock naked. Yuck, especially as he didn't look anything like his photo. I switched it off and blocked.

belle - go for new profile pics!! 2 yrs old is a bit out dated!!
