Freak, I think he's been watching too many David Attenborough animal doccos. Is he like the new alpha male lion who goes about killing all the cubs so only his majestic DNA gets replicated within the pride?

itsalladirtylie · 29/11/2011 21:27

hehehe, that boy gonna be a long time single Grin

any one who rants or even complains a bit in their profile is best avoided I recon

lubeybaublely · 29/11/2011 21:33

Hahahaaaa at cast offs. What a TWAT. he will be missing an awful lot of excellent, kind, clever and-allsorts-of-lovely-things women

newbabynewmum · 29/11/2011 21:48

What an absolute twat Freak!

I have had some very odd messages on POF. A few people feel the need to correct my grammar and spelling! I'm a teacher! I can write English pretty well!

watchoutforthatsnail · 30/11/2011 09:47

hi all :)

Freak- what a cock!!!!!

Start - erm, ive been about 15 first dates this year i thnk. some good, some bad, some just meh.

Sorry ive been away for a whiole, cant get on at work now. Not much going on with me, all profiles deleted or in hiding. Have been texting that blonde one, and even though i cancelled on him, and then said i couldnt make this week he has been lovely and very very funny and there is no text speak or sex talk or anything other than just being nice and i think its worth a coffee, so have arranged a date for next tuesday :)

Im still reeling a bit from the discovery that my close friend had been lying so much about everything it seems. Even down to daft things, like he said he had a new aquarium and was keeping coral. He own a forum and ( even though its awful) ive had a trawl through it and literally yesterday he was posting pics of his aquarium with only fish, asking if anyone knew anything about keeping coral. Which means another lie, and means that im guessing everything he told me was a lie. Amazing that he lied so much for so long ( like 2.5 years) and amazing that i believed him.

swallowedAfly · 30/11/2011 10:13

Shock other men's cast offs???? Shock Angry

what. a. twat.

and how old he is that he thinks he's going to attract a pristine virgin with no history? grrr.

at least they make themselves easy to identify - effectively they may as well stick a post it on their head on their profile pick saying, "I AM A NOB".

how strange watch. such a meaningless lie too so if he even routinely lies about little things like that....?

feeling a bit wary of how smooth fitboy is at all this texting business Hmm funny really - you want someone to be smooth and sexy and confident but then when they are you start to get player alerts going off in your mind. or is that just me?

purple - your post made me laugh. you'll have to sneak the sex in there somewhere - maybe a quick lunchtime meet up whilst the kids are at school Grin

Snapespeare · 30/11/2011 10:14

watch - sorry you're still feeling down about the shitwad. it's so difficult, because we've all had our trust abused in the past and when you still have that little gleam of hope that you can finally 'get' someone and you peel back those layers and then they go on to abuse that trust, you feel a bit stupid. :) I think having the ability to be open and honest and have teh potential to trust someone again far outweighs the fucking game playing lying bollocks that shitwad has as personality traits.

Hope you have a lovely date with the blonde one...although, you do know he has the curse-of-the-blonde to contend with Wink

swallowedAfly · 30/11/2011 10:16

it's a bit too good to be true i'm thinking. he's very good looking, very sexy in appearance and temperament/communication you know? confident, really at ease in his own skin etc. yet he was on pof and is flirting with me? i don't know if i'm having self esteem issues on this one or genuine red flags Confused

swallowedAfly · 30/11/2011 10:17

what's the curse of the blonde?

adamschic · 30/11/2011 10:37

Glad you are going for the date, afterall Watch.

watchoutforthatsnail · 30/11/2011 10:44

thanks snape - its just astounded me that he lied about SO much, but uou are right, being open and honest and having the potentional to trustoutweighs anything.

bloody keyboard seems to be playing up. sorry about the typing. .

swallowed, the curse of the blonde is mine ( and snapes i think) total inability to fancy men with blode hair. or any hair colour other than dark really. It is ridiclous but not somethign that can be helped. :) so, i predict a nice date but i wont fancy hime because of the blonde. He has one redeaming factor in that he appears to love rum as much as me, and is in possession of a pub sized bottle of morgans spiced :) i could be persusaded into a second date with that waved under my nose!

stayformulledwine · 30/11/2011 10:52

Freak - I nearly spat tea all over my already buggered laptop then! Cast offs?! hahahahahaha. What a moron!

Watch - Not even kurt cobain?! Stubble, scruffy....the things you like. Slight inconvinience of being dead, but you cant have everything. Grin

FreakoidOrganisoid · 30/11/2011 11:07

My preference is dark too, but have been out with a couple of blonds. Bloke that broke my heart earlier in the year was blond actually, albeit dark blond (often dyed red)

Watch really sorry he has lied about so much. I think it's worse when it's a friend in a way, friends are meant to be the ones you can rely on. You kind of expect to get your heart broken in love, but when someone is professing to be your close friend you really don't expect them to hurt you (yes same man as in paragraph one Sad)

Snapespeare · 30/11/2011 11:19

I make small exceptions in 'curse of the blonde for 'Platonic Man' and 'the doctor', who are both drop-dead gorgeous, but generally dark does it. :)

swallowedAfly · 30/11/2011 11:32

i have the curse of the blonde issue too then. i try but i just don't fancy them and i kind of trust them. can't read them. people with blue eyes have a similar effect on me Blush

swallowedAfly · 30/11/2011 11:32

'don't' trust them that should have said Confused

TimeForChristmasSpirit · 30/11/2011 12:16

What about ginger mullets swallowed? Could you go for one of those? Grin

Hi everyone, just checking in, all profiles still hidden so no action of the male kind going on here. Reading some of the above posts I'm pleased my profile is hidden! 'Other men's cast off's' indeed! Twat! Mind you, it reminds me of the time The Ex told me he wanted a child but not with me because I was used goods. I wonder if there is a dating site where decent men hang out. I wonder if there are and decent men left.

watch all those lies, very strange but also a big red flag, makes me wonder if there were other red flags that went unnoticed by you due to being well hidden by his charm. Is it any wonder we find it hard to trust men!!

lubeybaublely · 30/11/2011 12:20

There ARE decent men out there. We know this from the fab messages from people who got lucky dating and actually found a lovely one.

Don't let the bastards grind you down!

Nowt happening here either apart from work and sleep and eating and stuff. Don't have the time or inclination for anything bar the odd quick shag with FWB to stop me going totally insame. That's plenty for now :o

swallowedAfly · 30/11/2011 12:34

time - no. afraid not. now i'm sounding really shallow but i need deep eyes and mystery and soulfulness and i find that totally absent from blonde/ginger/blue eyed men.

swallowedAfly · 30/11/2011 12:37

they look cold to me.

taste is weird.

TimeForChristmasSpirit · 30/11/2011 12:41

lubey If I had what you had I would be perfectly happy, it would be more than enough for me. "Dear Santa, all I want for Christmas is a job and a FWB. Please." Grin

TimeForChristmasSpirit · 30/11/2011 12:43

I know what you mean swallowed, I get where you are coming from

Zanywany · 30/11/2011 13:02

Cast Off's [shocked] what an complete twat

Just a quick check in as things are really manic at work.

All going well with Mr Yacht still, dare I say it but think I might be in love Blush

Hi Lubey and Time

PoppaRob · 30/11/2011 13:09

Zany! Love! Onya mate! :)

swallowedAfly · 30/11/2011 13:54
