General internet dating support and chit chat thread

[lubeybooby]

Relationships seems the most appropriate place for this I think? Happy to ask for it to be moved if it's maybe better in _chat or something.

Anyway!

Chit chat your dating/internet dating claptrap here!

Also your hints and tips please for dating in the shark pit on the internet

I'll start.

I'm 31, single and rather fed up of it now. Have a few internet dating profiles, am trying to improve my social life and get out more, even looking out for possible additional temp jobs just to be.... 'out there' a bit more.

Even had a go at cosmic ordering which has been cropping up in dating related threads recently. Now I'm a very scientific and cynical kind of person but when it comes to my (currently appalling) love life I will try anything to give it a bit of a boost. Whether that be focusing the mind on the task in hand or strange unknown forces I care not.

Hope it goes well Stay am sure you will be able to update us later whilst he is sleeping on the sofa or did I remember that wrong and he is checking in to a hotel.

Hmmm may try a bit of cosmic ordering

oh, deffo keen!

I will message you my details, just explain in message ;)

it is match yes? sent you a message on here :D

he is in a hotel. I will update tonight, I have mumsnet app on my iphone

oh and I did cosmic ordering too. It was the next day the Sassenach declared an interest!

I have PMd you!

haha. i like that, and stay, thats kind of you. it IS sixth form, but hopefully he will find it really amusing.
How exciting.

Stay - how are your nerves?

yep, actually i think hes really keen, he said hes really excited, but now suddenly nervous.
Looks wise, hes like my idea most perfect choice. Personality wise too, and the more i natter with him, the more i like him. Quite possibly too good to be true.

It was the wrong dating site. Anyone on GSM and want to do madame a favour?!

I am really nervous! But excited too. Cant wait to meet him! What about you? Date tonight I saw!

have you met him at all before.. in 3 years?!?!?

I'm too tight to pay for the dating sites I'm on otherwise I would do it Madame

So thats Stay and Watch on dates tonight. Anyone else or on one tomorrow?

no never met him, we are at opposite ends of the country!

I finish at ten and he will be meeting me in work, then back to his hotel room so I can get changed, then out for a few drinks!

Man alive, just re-joined POF...first mail I get

"hi there please gt bk too me out off being nice love boots my self u in the pic with them rubber na boots do u like fetish tim gert bk even if too say fuk offx"

clearly you mustn't disappoint him, tell him to fuck off!

Actually, no don't he probably would love that.
Ignore. Ignore. Ignore.

I even put on my profile "I am not a dominatrix"...Deleted...what a twat. In fact, I can barely make head nor tail of it

AND they aren't fucking rubber, they are Iron Fist thigh boots, at least appreciate the quality.

Just been told I'm attractive and he gave me 5 out of 5 stars on OKCupid. Am sure I am too nieve to think he means it

It's always nice to receive compliments!
