Plenty of Fish, yes, but where are the men? Dating chat thread #4

[lubeybooby]

A new one (again)

Dating, internet dating, all kinds of dating.... chat about it here.

Off you go! :o

Except bum sex! I'm not trying that! End of!

I had a chat on the phone earlier with my tomorrow date - not sure if it's happening after all now as his phone cut out/he hung up/whatever and he hasn't been back online yet (not that I've seen anyway)

He isn't my usual type (tattoed bit of rough) and he is a man if few words online, as demonstrated but he was really good to talk to on the phone. Hope he isn't vanishing on me! Wouldn't surprise me if he was, you just never know with this weird internet dating bunch.

Still convinced the other one is dodgy ex boss.

Well I hope he gets back to you lubey. Maybe his battery went and he is at work so can't charge the phone and can't get online. Do they vanish mid phone call too???

Time - Havent rang yet! been so busy this morning! One of my friends has been rounnd for lunch and a blether and got more stuff to catch up on this afternoon. No time...no time! Need to get out and pick up a couple of bottles of wine yet too!

I can sense the excitement building stay

Hmmm... don't think I've had a mid call vanisher happen yet but there's a first time for everything. Sigh... hope he turns up online later, if not then fine whatever. Back to drawing board for the eleventy millionth time

Got a lovely message from Heilander, hadn't spoken to him since last time I was on dating sites before the ex (April ish last year)

So, not dating related but still nice to receive and if I don't cop off in the next year or so I'm going to sod it and marry him anyway

Hi M,

Lovely to hear from you again.

I still have fond memories of our meeting and sitting talking on your balcony when you spent a holiday in Ardersier. I don't think I will ever forget your warm embrace which gave me such comfort when I spoke with you about my late wife's passing.

I'm truly sorry to hear that your relationship ended but sometimes things in life happen for a reason. You never know what is waiting round the corner. And just to prove how true the above is I will recount an experience I had when I was at a particularly low ebb in my life.

Not long after my wife passed away, I decided to visit the small Moray Firth village of Ardersier where my wife and I had lived and owned the village hotel. After taking some photographs, I was wandering somewhat aimlessly along the rather deserted shore when I encountered a young woman sitting on the beach near an old village hotel, which had been converted into holiday flats.

This was to lead to a an encounter that I will fondly remember for the rest of my life. You were that young woman and you brought sunshine to my life at a time of darkness.

It was wonderful to hear from you M

Please do keep in touch

Oh my, lubey what a lovely, lovely message!

Marry the man before someone else does!

I think that would make his entire decade, Time, possibly millenium :o he went off after having a cuppa and a chat and a hug, and came back later with wine and flowers and chocs and CD's of the music he makes. I was in a drunken coma by then and my friend answered the door, she said he was clearly devastated I wasn't in any fit state to accept the gifts and he was all dressed up in his best suit :o Bless him he is lovely. But SEVENTY ONE!!!

aww lubey that is a lovely message! I am from the highlands! You can come stay with me and visit him

I am very excited. Must clean the bathroom. Again.

Lubey that is so lovely, makes the vanisher pale into I significance. If you can make that mu h of an impact on a lovely man, sod the losers.

Awh, bless him! an old romantic. Yes, 71 but at least he knows how to treat a girl!

Stay I adore the Highlands. Have visited there often for hols. I do so wish he was a tiny bit younger, I'd have it made! :o

Ahh thats lovely Lubey

I get annoyed at the vanishers as its easy to take it personally and think that you have done something to put them off

Im here I'm here..........

We were in the middle of a perfectly normal, enjoyable conversation discussing where to go on what day. I said I didn't mind and could be flexible, he said no problem and that we didn't have to decide right now. I was in the middle of saying ok we can chat later or tomorrow then and his phone cut off/ he hung up/whatever.

I text afterwards to say it was good talking to him and was sorry his phone appeared to have died. NOTHING since and he hasn't been online I supposes there's a chance he is out of credit or something but I'm strongly suspecting a vanisher. A mid conversation vanisher. Seen it all now :o

maybe his wife came home?!

Only joking, surely he will be in touch later this evening :)

am not at all nervous. Not one little bit.

Hahahaa now that wouldn't surprise me either!

Awwww sooo chuffed for you. I love that loved up excitement so much :o

Hello nnallc :)

nnallc - are you who I think you are?! If not..ahem. I am odd.

Would it be very wrong to be half cut when he arrives?! It would be wouldnt it?

Wouldn't go for half cut but would definitely be sipping a small to medium glass along with the chainsmoking

I don't think nnallc is who we thought btw. I thought the same and asked on fb. How cagey does that all sound :o hahaa

nnallc just ignore us then! Hows it all going in the internet dating world for you?

Good plan lubey. medium dont even know why I am nervous.

I'm still here and despite saying that I was going to come off all the dating sites, I couldn't keep away lol! Have a date from dating direct Saturday night ....a Finance Director (anyone know what that is? lol), year younger than me, seems nice so watch this space :)

Means he is at least part owner of a company charlottes and does the financial stuff. Sounds good but I'm financial director and managing director and everything director and also the cleaner and the admin person so it might not be glam Definitely sounds good though, was wondering where you were!

Hi nnallc

I though it was you know who too - ohhh do I sound all mysterious now [happy]

Hi again Charlottes, it is easy to be disolutioned by the dating sites but in my case its the only way I will probably meet someone

Excited for you Stay, a couple of glasses sound fine -essential-- if your nervous or excited
