smokin I suspect I have already been contacted by or indeed met all the dodgy ones within a 10 miles radius, hence me steering clear of POF for the foreseeable!

Whilst there might be one or two decent men on POF, I certainly haven't encountered any. The fact that the best ones I met from there turned out to be married says it all really...

I am chatting to a seemingly ok guy on pof but all his answers are about 1 line long with at least 2 huns and xx. Mmmm not looking good is it...

Milkandlotsandlotsofwine · 21/11/2012 10:53

I have a picture of a horse on my profile.Blush

In my defence though he is my horse and I'm not riding him. More sitting next to him in a field whilst we gaze lovingly at each other.

In fact when I think about it I wonder why I'm even looking for a man? My horses bring me much more happiness than any fella ever has!

Ike For me any number of huns would be a deal breaker. If it was 2 huns per line I would consider moving country to get away from him.

Milk, the boy daters should respond in kind........

Milkandlotsandlotsofwine · 21/11/2012 11:17

Haha Florentine if somebody messaged me the "My lovely horse" video I would have to marry them immediately!Grin

i kinda had the impression that there can be a quasi sexual bond between
women and horses, or that the bond with the horse is somehow more fulfilling than the bond with a man?

So, anyway, woman with horse pictures in her dating profile is perhaps saying that she doesnt need a man all that much, or that any man has alot to measure up to??

Milkandlotsandlotsofwine · 21/11/2012 11:59

Quasi-sexual? Argh, I wouldn't say that mercury I would definitely agree it's a more fulfilling bond though. Nothing makes me happier than my horses Grin

Men generally don't like it. Both my long term partners moaned about my ponies. Which was a bit of a bloody cheek considering I paid for everything for them myself & was a bloody attentive girlfriend as well. So I would say that no, I don't need a man that much. It's nice to have male attention but I don't feel like I ever really want to fall massively in love again at the minute. Well, apart from with Mr "I think me and my girlfriend are breaking up" but he doesn't want me anyway so fuck him!

oops i didnt exactly mean to imply actual bestiality!!
More that any gap in your life is more horse shaped than man shaped?

Milkandlotsandlotsofwine · 21/11/2012 12:16

Haha. I can see the headlines now.

"MilkandWine in I love my ponies quite literally shocker"Wink

Yes the gap in my life is definitely horse shaped. They are up at my friends stables in Durham and I am in London. I miss them terribly. Perhaps I could get my grooming kit out and give man boy a brush during our date tomorrow? I'm sure he wouldn't mind!

bantamrooster · 21/11/2012 12:30

and then you can offer to ride him like a pony. I'm sure he wouldn't mind that either :)

lulubellaboozle · 21/11/2012 14:04

Nicholas love it!!Grin lol, as we all like to say! Hmm

ike1 · 21/11/2012 14:51

I think too much time on POF las lowered my immunity to being hunned ...and that is NOT a good thing...

MyLittleFireBird · 21/11/2012 16:06

A 24 year old just sent me a message that says "You're so adorable, I want to dowse you in green paint and spank you like a disobedient avocado." Shock

(I'm closer to 40, BTW)

KirstyWirsty · 21/11/2012 16:08

firebird now that IS kinkyfuckery!!! ;)

mercury7 · 21/11/2012 16:10

it's not the 'hun-ing' thats getting to me it's the lying about age...infact this is now near ubiquitous!! Angry Angry Angry
almost every profile where the age is given as over say 38 has pictures of a man who looks 10 years older.
as for the physique categories..dont get me started

Yogagirl17 · 21/11/2012 16:13

A disobedient avocado? Do you think he had a bad experience with some guacamole he never quite got over? Ole!

MacAndCheese · 21/11/2012 16:18

An avocado? Sexy Wink

MadameOvary · 21/11/2012 16:22

Firebird you could answer thus:
"Sorry, green is not my colour. It's spelled "douse" btw.
Yours, Firebird."

Yogagirl17 · 21/11/2012 16:25

MadameO - isn't that one of those words that can be spelled either way? Anyway, if she says green isn't her colour he might suggest a naughty tomato or an irreverent orange!!

So who has dates coming up? I know Kirsty has the "big date" with overly keen auditor on Thurs. And I believe Bantam is seeing his psychotherapist this week. Anyone else?

MirandaWest · 21/11/2012 16:29

Am mostly lurking as RL keeps coming to get me but have to say that My Lovely Horse is possibly one of the best videos ever Grin

questions2008 · 21/11/2012 16:29

Oh please can we have that in the next thread title - disobedient avocados!! OD is so educational, who knew avocados could be a turn-on?

Hmm, I'm supposed to be hearing back from monday's date today regarding next meet-up over the weekend. He asked me when yesterday, I confirmed babysitting and gave him option of 2 days then he gets back saying ill let you know wed which will work. Now I'd like to believe him but I have been turned into a cynic after a few months of OD a little bit of me is already thinking pah, he's going to come up with some excuse, isn't he.

So currently staring at fone really want to kiss him again

bantamrooster · 21/11/2012 16:32

'douse' is to cover something in a liquid. 'Dowse' is to use a pointed stick to try and find a source of water or something like that.

Psychotherapist is in a couple of hours. coffee only. I'm feeling a little bit meh, still keen on SurreyGirl although I know that's never going to happen.

But she is attractive and funny. We'll see how we go.

smokinaces · 21/11/2012 16:41

I have third date with Saturday man tomorrow night. Casual indoor coffee interim date as this weekend is his with his kids.

I have found with pof finding even a half decent one is a mission in itself.

Bantam good luck tonight
