Dating thread 15! cock-cages, hopeful pensioners the occasional glorious success!

[Snapespeare]

apologies for title, I am bereft of ideas as the sodding times 'kindly' edited my profile for me.

time - my pof is still hidden. My okc is only active because i have a date with his tomorrow.
My match has thrown up NOTHING. not even one decent conversation. Just a few 'hi's' from men who live a few hours away.

I think past tomorrow im going to leave it all hidden for a while.
( notice how im assuming tomorrow wont go anywhere....and will just be a first date to add to the pile of others)

Time - maybe thats why you arent bothered. I have to admit ive not been overly bothered until fairly recently. Or i have, but its passed quickly. But im coming up for 2 years on where you are now. so almost 4. which is a damn long time to be single for.

snape - we might as well have just set light to our hard earned cash and watch it burn.
when i think of what else i could have spent it on it makes me feel a bit fucked off to be honest.

Well, at least you can now say you have given paid sites a go Snape, and you can safely say that the paid sites are no better than the free sites (so far).

I have compensated the waste of £32 by having a good weekend on ebay and buying a urban decay 'naked' palette form Debenhams today because they have a promotion on (15% off) I am now going to buy some fab boots from ebay (once I find the boots of my dreams, findi ng perfect boots akin to finding perfect man, if such a thing exists, boots might be easier to locate) and console myself that this is money I am saving on not meeting pensioners dating undesirables.

Sounds fab! I treated myself to the Urban Decay 'naked' palette last week, from ebay for £18. I've been wanting one for ages. It's lovely! I love it! I bought some keratin stuff to give me silky soft and swishy hair and some gunky stuff to put on my eyelashes at night, which promises to give me extra long lashes within 2/3 weeks. And I bought the fabulous foot file on Shinys thread to rid me of hard skin and some fab foot cream so I am well on the way to lovely feet too! And, I have an 'intimate' date on Wednesday but sadly tis only with the Practice Nurse for a smear test.

I do need to buy a foot file!

I was seriously tempted by naked palette on ebay, but talked myself out of it on basis a lot of fakes (not that yours is..) I wouldn't be able to tell, so decided for legit non-ebay source :)

I promise it's not a fake, it is the real deal. It was worth paying that for the application brush, it's the best one I've ever used. And the shadow lasts all day, but I do use a primer too which helps. I was going to save it 'for best' but then thought sod it, and so wear it every day. And the foot file is fantastic, honestly! It's this one reviews.boots.com/2111-en_gb/867907/soap-glory-soap-glory-foot-buffer-reviews/reviews.htm

naked or naked 2 time??

i thought naked 2 looked a little glittery, private seller or someone who has managed to accumulate a bunch of seconds?

It's naked 2 and yes, it's supposed to be a second, the listing said the casing could be damaged but mine isn't. Some shades look sparkly but they don't look glittery when on, just very natural. Tis lovely.

Lol, I'm not the only one that thinks that re saving money on crap dates. I took out £40 Friday, to cover my cinema trip and the date. Didn't go to the cinema as felt Ill. Cancelled Sats date..still have £40 in purse. Hurrah!!!

Ooh, time! Feel free to pm me your sellers details!

So yeah... dating. :(

I have been watching a lot of these threads with interest and hope you don't mind if I add my perspsctive.
About 12 years ago I found myself 'suddenly single' after thinking I had found my life partner. (Some of that was fear I was getting too old...34).
I joined a company ,big at the time, that you paid (quite a bit) for, had at LEAST a gazzillion 1st dates, and maybe 4/5 2nd ones, none of which led anywhere.
(Then went out with a friend, met a man to whom I am now married and have 2 brilliant DD's with, but that's not the point of this)

I really think the taking control, being proactive and actually DOING something is the important thing. Any change leads to more change. It is so easy to stay in your comfort zone, and why shouldn't you unless you want things to change.

All of you on this thread are so positive, I just know you will all meet someone soon, or maybe not so soon, but you will. And you all sound so in control, I am in awe.

There is no compromise in your attitude and I think that will serve you well. There are a lot of dickheads out there, but surely the odds must be that at least 1/2 will not be, and to be annoying, it really does just take one.

I wish I had had the internet in my single days, and could have been bolstered by threads such as these.

Supportive women are great!

I've sent you a PM Snape AND, I have made a new POF profile. Let's see what this time around brings.

Awh, that's a lovely post Scrablet, thank you

Well I've been sent a photo of a large cock by e-mail! WTAF!
I was enjoying messaging the man but now think he's overstepped the mark somewhat
. If I knew him it may've been appropriate but not when we've never met.

It's not from the young man who ticked all my boxes, he's still a possibility.

You will get pics like that. I have had 1 and a few naked toned bodies yum yum. But I do not want cock pics

If it had been a nice tight bum, fair enough.
Cocks are not attractive, when will men see that.
Thay're ok as part of the whole man but in isolation not good, however large they may be.

He's back pedalling like mad now, knows he's overstepped my boundaries.
I did quite like him but who he says he is and the person he's showing himself to be are 2 different people, which shouts 'player' to me.

I may need to set up a spreadsheet to keep them all straight in my mind.

Could be a business opportunity : the on-line dating app that details all the interest so they can be compared.

I can't think of a witty name for it, no doubt someone else will.

yes thankyou scramblet that is a lovely moral boost for us. me in particular!

one guy I've exchanged a few emails with sent me his number today and said he is leaving POf due to too many stalkers and to text him if I want as he would like to chat more. he's going off shore now and will be back in two weeks. I'm a bit hmm.. is it a ploy just to get me to text him... or are some women a little weird too do you think??

childofisis I think I needed a spreadsheet too. it is so confusing I can't remember who's said what and I can't always see the entire conversation in the iPhone app. maybe I should get a little notebook lol

compare the men twats!!
ThereIi've thought of a name.
It'll sell like hotcakes.

I've said I'll talk to at least 2 tonight, won't have time for tv...

I can't do it, I'm sorry, I can't. Three messages: "Hi" and "You have nice eyes and a nice mouth" and "Hi sexy". Profile hidden until I am in the appropriate mood required for dealing with

No doubt I will start to feel like that before too long.
This is brand new territory for me and it's quite a lot of fun too.
That's not including all the ones I'd rather not think about.
