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.

you know. im bloody glad i asked to see a pic before meeting up. else i would have been horrified.
And would have wasted an entire afternoon and money that i can spend on other things.

i am not impressed. at all.

No, do not feign illness, you tell him the truth "Look you lying, deceitful excuse for a man, I was really looking forward to our date tomorrow, with the gorgeous man with the interesting looks and stubble, now you have gone and ruined it by sending a real pic of yourself. I will NOT be there!! I will not be in attendance!! Now let this be a lesson to you, always put your ugliest real pic on your profile!! Entrapment is not attractive!"

Cos if we don't tell the truth, these men will never learn a lesson and will continue to lie and cheat women!!

Snape you should ring the Daily Fail and expose The Times!!

I am realising I must be a proper cow, because if that had happened to me I would tell him the truth. It did happen to me, except I was on the date, and I did tell him the truth.

time - what did you say? what did he say?

i have said he looks really different. but hes sort of not replied.
You might be right.
bugger.

and he's a QC but he looks like a weasle!

Better or worse than Watch's soon not to be date?

oh worse. but he's a QC!

hes sent me ANOTHER pic, which he says is the most recent. again he looks totally different. he looks like a totally different person in each pic. its very confusing.
Ive attempted to add him to my fb, under the guise of levelling the pic score. depening on the state of that depends on if i go on the date.
as it stands, dont hold out much hope.

Watch he said "well, what do you think?" and I said "Of what?" and he said "Of me" so I said "Well, you don't look anything like your profile picture" He looked at me like this and said "Really?" I said "Yes, really. I didn't recognise you" He looked at me like this and said "I must look a little bit like my picture, it's of me!" So I said "No, you don't, and you aren't 5ft 11" either as you say on your profile" he said "well, no, I'm about 5ft 9"" so I said "well that is the height you should put on your profile, it's no good lying about these things when you intend to meet someone" so he thought for a minute and then asked me if I fancied him now I had met him, so I said "No, I'm not as attracted to you in the flesh as I was on your profile" He looked at me like this and then said "Mmm, oh right then". and that was it. I finished my drink, said it had been nice to meet him, he asked if I wanted to meet up again and I said "No thank you" gave him a nice smile and swished myself and my brand new maxi dress out of the pub!

He is still on POF with the same pic only he has now amended his height to 5ft 9!! Result!!

oh bugger, the current object of my stalking says he's 5ft 11.

pass the large pinch of salt.

watch report back! have a good nose at his fb and then block him when he turns out to have even more chins and even less facial hair! my fb is an utter work of photo-manipulated fiction

that was very good of you to say that. i wouldnt have known what to say, but then again, people dont tend to ask things like that in the first place. noone has ever asked me that.

i dont know. im totally not interested now anyway. id be grudingly going. best to cancel.
( i feel mean, and i hate being mean)

i just sent this : Im sorry, im a little confused because you look really different to your profile pic. And i dont want to waste your journey ( nor mine) nor time tomorrow. so its best to cancel.

i feel bad though. i really do.

Well, as I see it, if you don't tell the truth then you are enabling them to continue fooling themselves and other people, plus they are harder to get rid of. By lying you are just soothing their ego. I can't lie. I always tell it as it is

That second date asked me too, only he asked me by text at 9am the following morning "So, what did you think then?" I told him there was no spark there for me. He wasn't happy, he deleted me from facebook! sore loser

mine is too
:)

Don't feel bad watch, you don't owe him anything, it's an internet date, that's the whole point of it, you get to choose what you like, like the Argos catalogue

I tried replying to the other thread and wondered why it wasn't accepting any more comments!

He has been texting all day apologising for last night and he says he wants to rearrange it for another night. He said he wished he could have made it and he is really pissed off with the ex for doing what she did. So I shall see if he means it as he said he will talk to me after work about rearranging it.

yes, don't feel bad about it at all! :) at least you have the grace to apologise and be honest.

Hello everybody! New thread, great title.

Is it the 22nd yet?

No need to feel bad Watch. If his photo is completely different - he is the one who should feel bad.

Sp - excellent. be aware of too-much bad-mouthing the ex though (red flag for me)

we expect a full report-back after he's finished work. :)

i supose. better than cancelling on the day. or just not turning up.

SP - thats good then. seems like it was the truth ;)

soone lubey - soon...

I agree no need to feel bad watch.

91 hours to go til 24 hours utter dating bliss... Not that I'm counting or anything

lubey.

Watch you have done nothing wrong. You have cancelled a date due to the goods being misrepresented. It's his own silly fault!

snaps thank you. He didn't say anything bad about her just he was pissed off as she had ruined his night.

Hopefully it is the truth and he will be in touch after work.

profile edited AGAIN by the times for alluding to the length of time I shall deign to stay on their site and the fact that one has to pay a ridiculous amount of money in order to make contact with anyone.

they are on my shit list.
