Aw man, can't believe you saw him first. EnvyGrin

EiePie · 07/11/2012 13:58

Paws off Yoga!! You're just jealous 'cos I get all the good 'uns! And Watch I am desperate to meet him (natch!) but playing really cool.

(It's getting so bad here that I actually dreamt that I was snogging Cain Dingle (the 'ard bloke off Emmerdale). Apparently, he was soooo smitten with me, he renounced all his bad ways and became all gentle and lovely! Good grief, I need a life!! Grin)

WarmFuzzyFun · 07/11/2012 14:13

EiePie, Cain Dingle! Desperate isn't quite the word I'd useShock

MacAndCheese · 07/11/2012 14:24

Afternoon all. Checking in :)

KirstyWirsty · 07/11/2012 14:30

Well .. spoke to The Surgeon at lunchtime he seems nice enough actually so I am going to meet him next Wednesday aftenoon for a coffee

He did bring up the fact about my other dates and mentioned that if we hit it off then he wouldn't be expecting us to see other people (so I didn't mention the lovely 54 year old I am meeting next Friday :) )

He asked me to send him the pics I have on my profile as they aren't the best quality on the site???

I purposefully sent him a pic from a Halloween party the other week when my pal's hubby has his arm around me to see what his reaction is going to be (is that bad??) Just worried that he may be a bit controlling so thought it would be a good way to week that out?

KirstyWirsty · 07/11/2012 14:31

weed that out even Hmm

faintheartneverwonfairdate · 07/11/2012 15:01

ok how are you lot all finding good men in their late forties and fifties? Since joining POF at the weekend, although I've had plenty of the one line messages I can't see any when I search. Maybe POF is better outside London?

bantamrooster · 07/11/2012 15:06

hmm. This girl winked at me last week, I sent her an email saying 'you kind of look too good to be real and live too far away, sorry' and got this back just now. (I so rarely receive emails it's a nice surprise to get one)

"Thanks, you also look handsome. You can tell me about your person and what is your aim. I will be happy to know that.
, My name is Emily, I work as the dentist in Grays, I live with parents, I love walks in the open air, I am engaged in gymnastics, on this site I want to meet the reliable, true, kind man with which wanted to divide the loneliness if to you is interesting write me your mail box and I there will write to you."

Her Essex accent doesn't really come through strongly, which is nice. But her complete inability to form a coherent sentence does worry me a little.

So do I google-translatify a reply to her (via Hebrew, Turkish, Magyar and tagalog) or leave it be?

Kirsty - I don't understand, what does he mean 'not the best quality on the site'?

OneMoreGo · 07/11/2012 15:12

Grin at bantam. Yesyes to a google-translate reply and please post it here as well... snort

KirstyWirsty · 07/11/2012 15:12

He said that the photos are grainy ???

faintheartneverwonfairdate · 07/11/2012 15:20

Kirsty, there is no reason for you to send your pics to him. My alarm bells are going off with this one. Could all be inoccent but it does sound a bit odd when you consider the other little bits.

If he is a surgeon he will be registered and you can look him up. Or, if he will probably be on the website of his hospital not that I have had to do this, oh no.

faintheartneverwonfairdate · 07/11/2012 15:22

should have read Or, if he is.

Yogagirl17 · 07/11/2012 15:28

Ooh bantam and she's a gymnast, isn't that every man's wet dream? You should date her immediately!

faintheart - I'm not exactly counting my chickens yet. I searched and found 3 I liked the look of and contacted them. Of those only 1 replied and although he seems like a good 'un i haven't even met him yet.

Kirsty - and he's telling you before you even meet that he wouldn't want you seeing other people? Hmm

bantamrooster · 07/11/2012 15:44

Kirsty - grainy photos? Do they look grainy? How would sending the ones you uploaded be any less grainy?

I agree with the raised eyebrows. Sounds very strange to me.

Ok message to Erica the Scamster, as translated with google. God I love modern technology.

"Top of the morning to you.

It was lovely to receive your mail, I'm very excited about the possibility of meeting a gymnastic dentist who lives with her parents. Oh the possibilities!

I've been thinking about the perfect woman for me. I have very very bad teeth and yet feel uncomfortable sitting in one of those reclining chairs you find in dentists offices, so need someone who can fix them while pinning me to the chair with her ankles to make sure I don't wriggle too much while you drill. You look perfect for that!

And yes, I like long walks in the open air too. Sometimes I can go for whole weeks without setting foot indoors.

Also, your idea of dividing the loneliness sounds very poetic. It is lovely! Far better than multiplication.

Anyway. if you would like to contact me, send slowly more revealing photos of yourself before telling me you need just a small amount of money to help you out of a difficult situation, then you can get in touch on [email protected]

I look forward to receiving your requests for visa funding.

yours with boundless enthusiasm and a credit card,

Bant"

"Upper of the daybreak.

It was good to get your e-mail, I'm very excited at the prospect of finding a dentist and parents living in the gym. Oh possibilities!

I've been thinking about the perfect woman for me. When I have a bad tooth very highly, after becoming one of the reclining chair seen in the dentist's office the session, so feel comfortable they are, ankles while you are connected to the I I should need someone to be able to fix it in a chair and please do not run a lot of time digging. It is ideal for you!

And, yes, I not only long, I love walking outdoors. Sometimes I can go a week without specifying the inside of the foot.

In addition, the unit will have an idea to split looks very poetic. She is beautiful! It is much better than the beatings.

Anyway. Before you tell me that you need a small amount of money that you will contact me to help you get out of a difficult situation, if you want to send the image to reveal themselves slowly, to [email protected] you can contact

We are looking forward to applications for funding that I have seen.

Infinite passion and your credit card,

Bant"

Kirsty: I would be wary. Send him a picture of an xray and ask him if thats clearer. From the photos on the site he will get the general idea, no need for more.
Hes either after web cam sex or a shag.
He will show his true colours soon.....its amazing how quickly they tell you who they are:

I was messaging a man, looks ok, but he mentioned the word "weirdo" in his profile 5 times and in the message he sent to me he said he wasnt a weirdo. So I asked whether he was trying to convince me or him? He acknowledged it was a lot of times and then said he was "looking to find some adult conversation and thought he could find it wilth me as he has had a hard week and weekend at work...obviously not"
True colours...not getting what he wants.

Got a message from a man who looks very nice. Complimenting my smile. All good. However I suspect he is a vanisher.

In a convo with a man who lives not too far. Pics look good, he has told me about himself a bit - his job - he likes sport - asked me a few questions. Looks hopeful but he talks about finding his Miss Right which may mean so far people havent lived up to his "criteria" I dont know.

Man who was nice looking messaging usual things who suddenly said "I have 2 fetishes" has been deleted

Sponge: hope he texts soon.

Watch: Lets hope the house is good

Snape: How are you today

Yoga: Can you ask the engineer to meet you?

Parsley: when is the coffee date?

Hello to everyone else

faintheartneverwonfairdate · 07/11/2012 15:47

Yoga good luck, please let me know how you get on with them.

Watch that is brilliant news!
Bantam that's priceless, will you send it?

Scattylatte · 07/11/2012 15:47

very funny Bant Grin

faintheartneverwonfairdate · 07/11/2012 15:49

Scatty "I have 2 fetishes". You have made my day Grin

MadameOvary · 07/11/2012 15:52

Watch Good news re the flat - go for it and fingers crossed for you.
Bantam - What are you waiting for? She sounds like a proper catch Grin

Kirsty my nobber alarm is going off, sorry.

Scattylatte · 07/11/2012 15:53

O someone with the username Lick75 has his profile pic which I think is his penis (cant be sure) in a bath with a groucho marx tash..and umbrella super imposed onto it. Thing is Im not even sure if its his penis. Could someone check please?

lubeybooby · 07/11/2012 16:02

Bantam :o that is so funny.

Kirsty my nobber alarm is going off too. I don't even know exactly why, but it is. The whole thing has seemed a bit uncomfortable from the point where he asked about other dates and that. Multi dating as they call it is pretty common and it's bad form to ask things like that. Then plus saying 'if you get on he doesn't expect to be seeing other people' what so after one date if it went well he wants to basically go exclusive? That's a bit much.

OP posts:
bantamrooster · 07/11/2012 16:02

Scatty. No. Sorry. I want to help, and all, but no.

MadameOvary · 07/11/2012 16:06

Could be worse Scatty Could be called Lick69, so Lick75 is obviously more classy Hmm

bantamrooster · 07/11/2012 16:07

Kirsty - ask for his email address and I'll give it to Erica the scammer. Her pictures aren't grainy at all, and she'll be happy to send more to him

KirstyWirsty · 07/11/2012 16:15

Hi I did think it was odd but I sent them anyway .. It's just the ones on POF anyway so they are in the public domain

Don't know his surname to look him up
