Shock *MLM you will have to go and sit on the naughty step now for posting that link! Grin

It will be interesting to see if your post gets deleted too.

Who is he then MLM? He's not the builder is he?

Snapespeare · 14/05/2012 14:40

pretty sure (having deleted all my profiles) that one can only look at the profiles we have posted if one is already a member of the site in question, especially if the spud has set his profile perimeters to only allow other members of the specific dating site owning the profile to view the profile.

I'll need to take your word on his non-potatoness.

MyLittleMiracles · 14/05/2012 15:45

He is the latest person I am talking to on oasis. It depends where the naughty step is, anyway I thought it was only naughty if we were making fun of them?

TimeForMeAndDD · 14/05/2012 16:04

No, I don't think it's only naughty if were are making fun of them, it's not that it can be construed as a personal attack as they aren't, presumably, members of MN. It's a mystery really, as other links have been allowed to stand. Anyway, I've got better things to think about so I'm not wasting time trying to work out why someone should report certain posts and not others. Smile

MyLittleMiracles · 14/05/2012 16:08

Stupid isn't it, unless they have something against the posters whose posts they are reporting?

Anyway back to dating.....

TimeForMeAndDD · 14/05/2012 16:20

Yes, that's a thought MLM.

Back to dating, or not dating as the case may be Grin I must say, I'm tempted to follow Snapes lead and have done with it.

MyLittleMiracles · 14/05/2012 17:29

Don't give up I'm not. Not ever. Remember be disappointed but never defeated.

Snapespeare · 14/05/2012 17:45

Yes! Give up! Join me in the wilderness! (can imagine little MLM with halo on your shoulder & me with my pitchfork on the other side...)

Profile is hidden and I'm working up to deletion. It's only the thought of writing another one that is putting me off deleting it!

I want to feel liberated. I want to feel cleansed. I want to be potato free. Potatoes are very high in carbs you know!

Deleting wouldn't mean I'm defeated MLM, it just means that I will be looking at other avenues than the potato market.

watchoutforthatsnail · 14/05/2012 18:08

I think hunting out some social activities in any child free Time is the way ahead.
And not social activity that is dinner round friends houses, or limited to one or two people you already know!!!

( I'm so guilty of that)

TimeForMeAndDD · 14/05/2012 18:20

I agree watch. I think the time has come to actually be proactive, put in some effort and stop waiting for the perfect man to appear on POF. Cos it just ain't gonna happen is it?

MyLittleMiracles · 14/05/2012 18:30

I am pro active. Anyway completely off topic, can I ask if I am being a b@#!h by not unblocking my ex to send him pics in Facebook for the following reasons

  1. He could trace me (was v violent, stabbed me)
  2. He hasn't bothered for 6 months
  3. He will most likely send abusive messages
  4. He hasn't been bothered with the mediation
  5. I think it would open too many old wounds

I would send pics via a solicitor though.

Am I the ex wife from hell?

Snapespeare · 14/05/2012 18:41

I wouldnt send the fucker anything.

MyLittleMiracles · 14/05/2012 18:44

Thank you. Glad its not just me. Had to ask to ease my conscience. I am all shook up just getting a message from someone else saying he wants pics.

TimeForMeAndDD · 14/05/2012 19:04

Profile is deleted!! I am cleansed!! Grin

Snapespeare · 14/05/2012 19:21
Snapespeare · 14/05/2012 19:22

Doesnt it feel fanTAStic, time??

MyLittleMiracles · 14/05/2012 19:29

I am still waiting for just friends to return before thinking of dating someone.

SPsFanjoHarboursDeadCats · 14/05/2012 19:33

time I felt better after deleting my profile.

TimeForMeAndDD · 14/05/2012 19:49

Grin Grin It feels double fanTAStic Snape, like having a big poo after being constipated for a week, I feel so much lighter! Grin

TimeForMeAndDD · 14/05/2012 19:51

Another thing that bothered me slightly, I would now and again catch men looking at me, and automatically I would think they recognised me from POF. Cos it is possible. And I didn't like the idea.

watchoutforthatsnail · 14/05/2012 20:12

Oh, I have actually had that happen, when ive recognised them. And I know they have me. Or worse we have swapped a few messages..horrible.

Well done for deleting it, im liking the anti online dating thing :) totally convinced it's a pile of poo.

MLM. I'm.shocked you even need to ask frankly. And suggest maybe all correspondsnce is through a solicitor and certainly not.through a social networking site!

My weekend is now sorted. Fri eve cinema and drinks with new people. Sat pm date messing about on boats :) Sunday family birthday party. Fab, I.love it. That's not a bad weekend at all,.is it :)

TimeForMeAndDD · 14/05/2012 20:18

Are you joining us watch? Are you deleting too? Smile

It will force us to get out there and actually do something. We could set ourselves little challenges! Grin

That's not just a 'not bad' weekend, that's a blooming fab weekend! I'm meeting my daughter for coffee. That's about as exciting as my weekend gets!

Snapespeare · 14/05/2012 20:48

I'm going to see friends in a midsummers nights dream on friday, dinner with pm on saturday(....) mope about & potentally alottment on sunday.

watch. I love that youre organising stuff on your isocial. :)

time. They could have been staring in awe at your gorgeousness! :)

TimeForMeAndDD · 14/05/2012 20:53

Grin I never thought of that Snape. If someone looks at me, anyone, male or female, I automatically think I've got lipstick on my teeth or bird poo in my hair! Maybe the first thing I need to do in order to pull a real life man is change my way of thinking! And get some business cards printed Grin

Your weekend sounds fab too Snape, just perfect. apart from lack of sexual activity with PM.
