Sorry pixie misread and thought you'd said shirt and jeans. Need glasses ... Where are you going again?

Pixiebelle123 · 03/11/2012 18:31

Going to the pub but I'm driving after all the wine last night!mive opted for skinny jeans, top and uggs. Trying to go for effortless chic (which takes actually takes a lot of effort to pull off!)

Wish me luck, we haven't mentioned my kids in our messages which probably means he's terrified of them too (it does say in my profile that I have children so he should be aware if he's read it properly).

Scattylatte · 03/11/2012 18:36

Have a good time pixie.

OhWesternWind · 03/11/2012 18:45

Drop the children into conversation ASAP Pixie but casually eg if he asks what you've been up to, say oh I've been into town with the children or whatever. I'm convinced that people don't read profiles properly!

Hope it all goes well

Yogagirl17 · 03/11/2012 19:03

remembering why I went off POF so quickly last time. Deleted several more "Hi", "you look lovely" etc etc. Really, just "hi", that's the best you can manage? Had to block a couple who weren't getting the hint that I was ignoring them. And convos with the two I haven't deleted are so far reeaaallly dull (zzzzz)

Actually, one of them (the better looking of the two of course), is not just dull but sending up red flags (I think, my twat radar isn't brillilant). His profile says only the basics (nothing in the "about me" bit) and when I asked him to tell me something interesting about himself he said "I'm single" Hmm

Ho hum, it's passing the evening til x-factor!

Cinema for one. Foreign film.

I like my own company especially when watching films.

Thanks for the woo Snape, although I hope it is not speaking to my current situation as I am very keen keeping things as they are for a little while longer.

Scattylatte · 03/11/2012 19:11

Oh god yoga, isn't it tedious? Surely some communicative men are there, somewhere?
I'm just waiting for the one I'm messaging at the moment to start....I've already noted his profile says he is only available for an IE on a Friday. I'd not seen that bit first time.

Scattylatte · 03/11/2012 19:11

Which film fuzzy? I love foreign films and I love independent cinema.

WarmFuzzyFun · 03/11/2012 19:16

www.imdb.com/title/tt0337692/ This one.

Oooh, I love foreign films go at least once a week.

I have rented these two to watch on DVD:

Worley - Envy

Have a great time Pixie

Scattylatte · 03/11/2012 19:21

They look good. I may take a look myself. I've just watched Little white lies and untouchable. Both were fantastic.

WarmFuzzyFun · 03/11/2012 19:30

Untouchable was great, saw it last week. Loved it, will look out for Little White Lies.

I don't get many films out here, I am rural Scatty.

Scattylatte · 03/11/2012 19:34

Lol. I see. I've got a box of foreign DVDs I watch. I have drawn the line at watching documentaries about the kitchen habits of male Swedish bachelors. Enjoy your films

ParsleyTheLioness · 03/11/2012 19:44

Hi All, Been away, without internet....Western I agree, I think a lot of them don't read profiles...gets right on my tits. Maybe the menz would say the same, who knows. Going to give you a blog link re the scams.

Yogagirl17 · 03/11/2012 20:08

Interesting link Parsely. Right, back to see what new drivel I've been sent! (Scatty tedious indeed!)

ParsleyTheLioness · 03/11/2012 20:10

Someone mentioned Matchaffinity upthread. Have had more interest from POF than Match with the same profile. Most of the idiots were on the paid site too...so far.

snapespeare · 03/11/2012 20:18

'Hey gorjus. How comes u r single?!'

I am going to remove my eyes with a spoon, so I do not have to read this shit.

ParsleyTheLioness · 03/11/2012 20:22

snape what happened with Pirate...have been away. Message me or FB me if you like...

snapespeare · 03/11/2012 20:35

Do you mean PM?

He didn't take it very well. understatement we're not talking. He unfriended me on Facebook. Can't be arsed to go over it all, but the last thread is entertaining reading. Hmm. Sad

ParsleyTheLioness · 03/11/2012 20:44

Ok. Thought we were FB friends?

ParsleyTheLioness · 03/11/2012 20:47

Initials NMJ?

snapespeare · 03/11/2012 20:49

No idea who half of you are on fb! I always mix up MN & FB names. :). I'm managing to not weep all over fb anyway, so there would be no indication of it there...

snapespeare · 03/11/2012 20:50

No!!!! That's not me! & that was the pirate you were thinking of. She dumped him.

ParsleyTheLioness · 03/11/2012 20:50

You sent me a pic of him. That is you tho? I have Parsley in my name on FB too.
