I want to know what Nicholas's tip was ... and the last thread was full!

snape Grin

and another thing he updates his FB all the time, my news feed is now full of his statuses or his comments on other peoples statuses. But of course due to the SH I still would...

Lovingfreedom · 30/08/2012 11:35

I am really laughing at the guy who only likes potatoes and cucumbers. Would probably be a deal-breaker for me. Reminds me of the guy I dropped cos he told me he'd given up refined sugar, which I took as an instant turn-off (????!!)....and then we get the threads asking 'why didn't he text/phone me' and expect the guys to have good reasons!

snapespeare · 30/08/2012 11:39

lovingfreedom :D at the refined sugar. I'd find that alluring! :D 'why didnt he text/phone me?' has mileage for a troll thread... Hmm

getting PM at 5 - this throws plan A into disarray, one cannot take whisky to the gym.

mercury7 · 30/08/2012 11:40

I agree that being finicky about food seems a bit precious and unmanly!

then again I prefer a man who's a bit careful about what he eats, I mean dropping refined sugar is probably going to result in a drop in bodyfat

snapespeare · 30/08/2012 11:41

potatoes and cucmbers is a bit of a bizarre 'ready steady cook' carrier bag tho'....

Lueji · 30/08/2012 11:44

About cock shots,
I never got one and would delete and stop contact asap.
But ex liked me looking at it and thought, for some reason, that women liked to.
He was a bit very fucked up, though. And not the type of man I'd really like to date now and if I had realised at the time.

hatesponge · 30/08/2012 11:46

oh, he did admit to carrots. but only raw. and he was at pains to stress he ate all fruit. And all meat (though then clarified this was actually only lamb and chicken...)

he said if he was made to eat peas he'd cry. It's not what you expect from a 6ft plus guy who's in the gym every day Grin

KirstyWirsty · 30/08/2012 11:47

lovingfreedom - you didn't keep them did you??? Shock

I am not prudish in the slightest but it's not really what I want to see - years ago my long term boyfriend sent me photos in the post of him from the waist down ..(pre mobile phones) My first reaction was 'who took the photos of you'Angry and then I thought 'why do you think I want would want this'?? Hmm

Lovingfreedom · 30/08/2012 11:53

I am literally wetting myself laughing here at that conversation sponge.
'he made pains to stress he ate all fruit?'...that is priceless.

..I recounted the refined sugar experience online to another guy I was chatting to on OKCupid. He was like 'oh that's a really good idea, I'd really like to give up refined sugar too'...and I was like 'erm...BLOCK!!'. lol So now I specify in the profile - must eat refined sugar. I can see the arguments both ways!

KW I'd have to check back in my email folder. I'm not prudish either I'm just like 'why?'.

Lovingfreedom · 30/08/2012 11:54

If he was made to eat peas he'd cry? ha ha ha ha ha. I love this guy.

Lueji · 30/08/2012 11:55

Potatos aren't even really "vegetables".
They are starch.

So, fruit, but not tomatos, for example?
I bet it's not all fruit either.

mercury7 · 30/08/2012 11:55

the bloke makes out that he sends cokc shots because he thinks she likes it...suspect the more likely explanation is that he get a thrill out of the idea of her looking at it.

Once again it's all about HIS sexual gratification Hmm

Cherubim · 30/08/2012 11:56

LOL at specifying in your profile that they 'must like refined sugar' Grin Grin

Lueji · 30/08/2012 11:58

I bet he does eat refined sugar. He just doesn't see it.
In cakes, biscuits, sugary drinks.

I wouldn't see a problem myself.

worldcitizen · 30/08/2012 11:58

But getting rid of refined sugar is wonderful. I would love to hear that from a guy.

mercury7 · 30/08/2012 11:59

obviously it depends on your definition of vegetables, but potatoes are easy food, you have to be a tough grown up person to eat stuff like brocoli, spinach, raw cabbage :o

People who have very limited taste in food are seen as unsophisticated and childlike..BUT peoples taste buds (ie the concentration and senstivity of) do vary alot.
Some people are much more sensitive to flavour and texture

Scattylatte · 30/08/2012 12:02

I dont think i could ever take a pic of my own vagina, admire it, then send it to some man. The exception would be me stuck in borneo with a purulent issue and a gynaecologist in the uk. Whenever ive received a cock pic there has been an expectation that i will admire it. as if!!

KirstyWirsty · 30/08/2012 12:04

Scatty I have had to struggle not to spit my water all over my screen Grin

OP posts:
hatesponge · 30/08/2012 12:06

Loving I couldn't stop laughing at the peas comment. Honestly what's so bad about peas, they don't even have much of a taste!

Lueji you're right about the fruit, he admitted to bananas (but only if green - like me, can't eat them once they go brown!), apples (Pink Lady being his favourite), watermelon but not melon under any circumstances, and oranges. He 'can't get on with' mango Grin

And I still really would despite all this, and the fact he hasn't contacted me since 9.30am Hmm

Lueji · 30/08/2012 12:06

Still, most people eat things like lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, even beans.
If he considers potatoes as veg, that says a lot.

Lovingfreedom · 30/08/2012 12:08

Any of you who would like to date a guy who does not eat refined sugar, PM me and I will forward details of his OKCupid profile! FAOD I do not have a photograph of his genitals. You will need to request that yourself!

And strictly speaking a cucumber is a fruit although it is used as a vegetable. lol.

mercury7 · 30/08/2012 12:09

I agree Scatty, I have used mildly erotic underwear shots as profile pics on certain websites but I'd never ever use any thing gynecological or porno looking.

(However there were women who DID use gynecological/porno looking profile pics)
Naked pics of men are fine as long as they are erotic and actually aesthetically pleasing but the ones I see are just fu(king godawful looking, no artistic merit what-so-ever

Scattylatte · 30/08/2012 12:11

So my update is as follows
usa man in london. seems deep and worthy. maybe meet next week.

Ive clarified WW2 fan isnt a facist

man who has been overwhelmingly
complimentary about my appearence.

old fwb might be in my area soon

I struggle to keep the momentum going with the messaging. its like watching paint dry

Lovingfreedom · 30/08/2012 12:12

sponge I am literally on the floor doubled up here. That's a pretty in-depth analysis of his fruit and vegetable preferences covered. Did you get a chance to talk about anything else during the date?

Technoviking · 30/08/2012 12:16

This is fascinating. Makes me glad that I'm married and don't have to worry about all this dating palava.
