Forget the olympics...we're aiming for dating gold.

Only the best is good enough.

As you were....:)

I'm off home for a gin. I'm disappointed & furious in equal measure. I sat there like a twat for 40 'fucking minutes! Hello sofa!

watchoutforthatsnail · 22/07/2012 18:45

Fucking hell. I do think thats awful, I wouid be fuming. You have every right to be fuming. What the fuck is wrong with people?;

feelinglonely · 22/07/2012 18:46

sorry snape,that was rude for him to do that,take it as one of those dating things.

snapespeare · 22/07/2012 18:50

Am repeating to myself that he obviously realised I was completely out of his league, so panicked & fled. I am actually stunned.

Scattylatte · 22/07/2012 18:51

Yep. Manners cost nothing. The same happened to my friend. Only she saw the dust of the car wheels as he left the car park. It's cowardly.

mercury7 · 22/07/2012 18:53

Snape, he sounds like a complete and utter jerk:(
how appalling of him..no wonder you are furious

I take it he was considerably older and shorter than he said?

snapespeare · 22/07/2012 18:57

Yes to both, black & white photo great, in real life giant red beard, grey hair he must have cut himself, stooped. At least he had teeth, but they all pointed in different directions.

I am clearly hideous. (joke) what a 'fucking cunt.

watchoutforthatsnail · 22/07/2012 18:59

Are you going to text him? Send him a ton of expletives... Or do nothing.
How Fucking dare he.. how dare he!!!!

mercury7 · 22/07/2012 18:59

i'm surprised you didnt do a runner first!

snapespeare · 22/07/2012 19:04

As far as I am concerned, he has ceased to exist. Not worth any more of my attention. My lovely flat mate wants to kill him

Now I'm horny and angry!

watchoutforthatsnail · 22/07/2012 19:09

I'm really sorry..

Scattylatte · 22/07/2012 19:09

Bloody hell. I'm surprised you didn't do a runner.
Lord above. He needs to be reported to Trading Standards. It's a bad experience. Just goes to show we know nothing till we see the flesh.

snapespeare · 22/07/2012 19:12

I was thinking of running, but I'm a decent sort, was rehearsing the letting him down gently speech.

I am a volcano of hormones and hatred. If I did fuck someone now they wouldn't be able to walk for a month. Back to.the nunnery I think...

hatesponge · 22/07/2012 19:13

jesus snape thats awful. what a total prick.

i'm furious on your behalf.

snapespeare · 22/07/2012 19:17

OKC account hidden.

The sun peeks out from behind the clouds!

:)

MyLittleMiracles · 22/07/2012 19:40

snape he is a complete and .utter waste of space prick.

I was struggling decorating and now a former internet date offers help (as friends) in exchange for sharing my vodka.

I don't feel horny and have a date tomorrow to which I am over the moon happy over. Confirmed again today for tomorrow.

snapespeare · 22/07/2012 20:28

Lovely flatmate is considering an okcupid honey trap for him, with voluptuous scantily clad blonde as profile pic. When he turns up expecting a shag, flatmates mum will be waiting for him. Grin.

Kernowgal · 22/07/2012 20:35

I just got a blah message from a POFer - the pic showed him (doppelganger for Shrek) sitting on an N-reg Honda squinting into the camera smowkin' a faaaag.

Why do they do it? Then their profile bleats on about how nobody contacts them. Dude, c'mon!

Kernowgal · 22/07/2012 20:36

PS Snape - fackin ada! What an arsehole! I think he realised his game was up.

AndLibbyMakesThree · 22/07/2012 20:48

Snape, that is absolutely disgusting behaviour. I'm appalled. It happened to a friend of mine once - it was her first internet date, and the 'man' (if he can be called such a thing) climbed out of a window in the toilet. I was so furious on her behalf - in fact I still am years later. And I feel the same on your behalf too. What on earth is the matter with these pathetic, rude, cowardly creatures?

StillGettingItWrong · 22/07/2012 21:16

Wow snape I am stunned. What an absolute fuckwit. Another one angry on your behalf. Twat.

Girly · 22/07/2012 21:16

Omg snape! How rude!! Did you leave him to it?

Not heard from mr tall so another one bites the dust, not worried have a few other options. All of them tall ;)

Girly · 22/07/2012 21:20

Oops just heard from him. He has been driving around the Kent countryside all day or so he says. He did say he loves his car, a classic and that he hardly ever gets to give it a good run...I think maybe I should give him the benefit of the doubt.

snapespeare · 22/07/2012 21:21

I sat there for 40 minutes, watching people catch eels. Even more disappointing, was I was expecting ray lemontagne. I got catweasel. :(.

sigh.

Can we kindly do a quick round of 'it's not you, it's him'? I felt great, now I feel a bit old and unloved. Fucker.

snapespeare · 22/07/2012 21:21

girly'. Yes you should. Just once though.
