Success, standards and still holding out for Johnny Depp...dating thread 18

[ChaoticismyLife]

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

Only the best is good enough.

As you were....:)

What is wrong with all these blokes?

Had coffee date (well actually an ice-cream date as it was so nice) yesterday - lovely bloke, interesting job, well-travelled, lots of same attitudes and values, but just nothing there.

Am chatting to another couple of prospects on Match - one doesn't have a photo up - is there ever a good reason for this? (Hope there is as I quite like the sound of this one)!

It is absolutely not you.

You are fab, feisty and intelligent.

He is the sort of tosser who can only get dates by having a photo which looks nothing like him (thereby blatantly breaching the trade descriptions act) AND when he does get a date bottles it and runs away like a pathetic coward.

It is an underestimate to say you are a million times better than him :)

It's def not you! Remember yor self worth honey! Dust off and hold your head up high! He is a prick, a fugly one at that x

In other news, my attempt at engineering some sort of chat with Mr R-N was quite frankly lame. My first mistake was sinking bottle of rosé before we went out. But, we did have dirty drunken sex a laugh and I really enjoyed the night. I guess there will be plenty of other opportunities to say something if I feel the need. Think we are definitely in the fwb zone though. Think I'm ok with that.

No, its definately him. He sounds like he looks like a character vic reeves dreamt up. How fucking dare he. Waste of a penis. Sending an unmumsnetty hug to you and a hard kick in the balls to him.

I think it goes without saying, Snape. What kind of person goes on an internet date and just leaves without a word to the person they're with? A cowardly, rude, pathetic one with no manners and no consideration for others. There's absolutely no excuse for it, and no decent man would ever treat someone like that. You deserve far, far better. (Can you tell it's made me quite angry?!)

Snape I'm

Remember I've seen your photos so can definitely say it's not you, it's him...he took one look at you and realised he didn't stand a chance so took the cowards way out and did a runner.

Snape. This may be indicative of his general behaviour. He may be socially inadequate and would have scarpered whoever you were. It seems strange to me that someone who is not attractive in anyway cannot politely hold an conversation and make his excuses and leave. That's normal social behaviour. You don't know his mental health, social and value system so he may just be devoid of something.

So, 100% it's HIM.

Lucky escape for YOU not him, Snape. The cowardly cunt.

Definitely him not you snape. What a tosser.

It was definitely him snape and we love you! He is a fuckwit not worthy if your thoughts or feelings (unless its relief you didn't have to spend time with him)

Right now, shake yourself, up you get, dust yourself down and start again girl. Let's get the fiesty firey snape we know and love back.

BTW I meant that in a nice way. Hope you arent offended

I got a message on POF tonight from a guy from an Irish family who has 15 shock] horses.

Had visions of Big Fat Gypsy Wedding...

Plus (and this is why you NEVER delete numbers from your phone) I just inadvertently answered my phone to the soldier. He asked to come round tonight . Strangely he was surprised when I said no!

sorry that should be 15 horses

Sponge, what did the soldier do?

It's not you. Who behaves like that. Anyone with any manners at all, sees the date through, says goodbye and leaves. I've had some dire dates, where I would have liked to run,but bloody hell, you just don't do that..it speaks volumes about the kind of person he is, and you wouldn't be with someobe like that.

This is What I reckon happened: the texts had,maybe gone too far prior to meeting.. then he was confronted with a real woman. He got embarassed, couldn't handle it, realised you didn't fancy him, and did a runner. Because hes a cock.

Lol, sponge, the soldier has a bloody cheek!!! That was about 3? Months ago.

Idiot men.

Thank you ladies, especially MLM, that's incredibly sweet of you .to take the time to post. :)

Going to have a rest from internet dating for a few weeks. shall still be here though, yelling 'cunt' at the top of my voice at the inadequates & celebrating (y)our successes.

Lucky escape doesn't even come close. But it is rejection from the rejected that Smarts, the 'fucking cheek of the man..

Oh of course the texts went too far (all deleted at station while waiting for train. More annoyed I missed a train by a minute & had to kill time for half an hour...) I did keep making the point that we should wait & see if we clicked in real life, that he wasn't getting phone sex until we'd had actual sex, if indeed that ever happened, pfft. The filth/ flirting was fun, I got a couple of very good wanks out of it, but Jesus Christ, no manners or kindness or anything. Fully expect him to text me for a booty call in 6 months time! Idiot.

Gosh this moves fast....I go away for a week and you're on a new thread....and there seem to be lots of dates!

Anyways....I have bit the bullet....just signing up to OKCupid...need to choose a username. HELP! Do I go for my RL name (guess not)...if not I have no idea....I always think of really cheesey things...I guess this is the end of me signing up to OK Cupid for tonight

Watch I agree entirely with what you say about Snape's date. Its so unbelieveably rude. Anyone sees a date out. At absolute worst, if the date is dying on its arse, you make up a prior engagement or an emergency to get you out of there, some sort of kind lie. No normal person does a runner!

Snape, there is something hugely irritating about the rejection from the rejected - when its happened to me (not the disappearing but the being turned down by one I wouldnt touch with someone elses bargepole) I've wanted to say in reply no, I didnt fancy you first! I reject you! etc

The soldier has a complete brass neck, I havent spoken to him in a good couple of months (Though he claims hes phoned me & Ive not answered!- quite possible, i only answered this call cos i thought it might be DS1 whos at a friends calling from his mates phone) but honestly who phones someone at 10pm to ask if they can come round?!

Whats worse is I did hesitate for a moment & was almost tempted

It's just an inadequate, weak, fucked up arsehole. He is looking for a woman to control. Picked on the wrong woman. Narsty rice dick.

sponge I think we all have been almost tempted at different times. I was almost tempted going back by someone, body of a god but only wanted a shag or two, nothing else and I would've wanted to show him off especially on Facebook

But now I have read what has happened to Snape I think that I have been put off the whole idea of dating...that really is shit...pardon the pun.

Sponge expecting someone to drop everything for a shag right now is a bit much
I'd only consider it if I already knew it was going to be 100% worth my while.
