Juliette - yes, that's what I did on the one occasion I put up a profile with no photo, immediately sent a photo when I received any messages and then sorted out a decent photo to put up to avoid the hassle.

I hate the idea of immediately backing off after a photo has come thru - oh well, I'll just ask and see what he says.

Ike - sorry you're having such a shitty time, I have all that crap with ex too re school, money, you name it - its really rubbish, mind you my kids are older and can see how manipulative he is - we discuss it together now! Smile

JulietteMontague · 26/02/2013 23:20

Ras if he didn't want to risk that, he should have put a pic up on his profile. He also hasn't explained why not so just don't worry about it.

ike1 · 26/02/2013 23:23

trurst jules ras....i reckon she knows ....y'know

ike1 · 26/02/2013 23:25

raskolnikov · 26/02/2013 23:34

mic - go for it, why not? I've just been chatting to a guy 17 years younger than me Shock, what's the worst that can happen ... (faints)

WarmFuzzyFun · 26/02/2013 23:36

Hi all.

Snape I am (again) Envy date 6, you deserve it, enjoy yourself, anticipation is so lovely, the throbbing clit eh?Smile Envy

Voice is there any coconut ice left, it is a favourite of mine? Did you colour some pink? It is mandatory to do so, you know.

KinNora please give me all the details once Mr Software goes hard..Wink

MsC He showed his true colours didn't he? Well at least you won't be wasting anymore time on him. It is all useful experience, it may come in handy.

And Helloooooo to Raskolnikov, no photo no contact in my books. Otherwise you can get such a shock when you do see what they look like, and not in a good way.

I struggled to meet that quota OWW, you are a hard task master woman. And I had no (suitable or unsuitable) reply to my messages.Sad Smile

So, I am putting myself on a OD fast, starting from midnight tonight until Friday night. No looking, no messaging. Need a mini break, I am feeling like I have the OD equivalent of OCD.

I will focus my considerable (sexual) energies on the laundry, vacumming and perhaps even some dusting Shock. My children will be worried about me.

Ah, just noticed I have just over 20 minutes to go onto dating websites...see you tomorrow, I will be using those final minutes to attempt to message someone suitable of course.

If OD where a horse it would be Shergar.

WFF - yes, I remember putting that on my profile before, I forgot this time! Vacuuming isn't quite (!) so much fun tho is it? I did it last week (vacuum, not sex, dammit) and am still surprised at myself Blush. As they say, its all in the suction...

raskolnikov · 26/02/2013 23:53

So media man had better watch out ...

ike1 · 26/02/2013 23:53

my god just watched the video of kirt cobain singing 'where did you sleep last night' so wonderful, so beautiful, so powerful.....and yet it reminded me of the era of sos mix ..any 90s veggies ot there???

ike1 · 26/02/2013 23:53

out

raskolnikov · 26/02/2013 23:57

what's sos mix??

VelvetSpoon · 27/02/2013 00:09

sos mix - as memory serves, dehydrated soya stuff you added water to and moulded into sausage shape type things.

I used to rather like it 20 years ago...early 90s veggie here :)

(one of my former dates sent me a link to him playing 'where did you sleep last night'. musically I couldn't fault him, sadly in every other way he was a complete tosser)

ike1 · 27/02/2013 00:11

in the eara before ready made veggie sausages ...you had to make the bugger out of sos mix.......dry mix of soya and herbs n shit with water......realiy nice ....my local cafe does em....v. v.v. 80's/90's veggie tho.

ike1 · 27/02/2013 00:16

oh yeh velv there are alot of tossers that wld like to be kurt (and ssssh he was a very talented and disturbed person too the producct of argumentative parents.....apparently)

ike1 · 27/02/2013 00:18

yes...it is kurt...sp

VelvetSpoon · 27/02/2013 00:19

sounds about right, this was anger management issues man, he who in his teens used to regularly kick doors down Hmm and was well into MMA etc...

VelvetSpoon · 27/02/2013 00:21

theres actually something quite nice about C in comparison, who I can imagine (when really pushed) might slightly raise his voice/speak in a firmer tone, but no more than that :)

ike1 · 27/02/2013 00:21

...and before anyone says anything...I would rather ds eat meat, not play guitar and have a joyful life.....

ike1 · 27/02/2013 01:13

..anyway ....I am Dave Grohl in the video for Pretender...that's me bandaging my hand ...ready ...bring it on!!! Night folks.x

WarmFuzzyFun · 27/02/2013 07:57

Morning, am not relishing today's commitment to tidying up. Have just volunteered myself to be an assistant organiser for my Meet Up social group (displacement activity to avoid OD sites no doubt)

I am going back to bed for an hour or thereabouts.

OP posts:
VoiceofUnreason · 27/02/2013 08:17

WFF - oh yes, there is some ice left and yes, it is pink and white. And isn't it more accurate to say if OD were a cow it would actually be a horse, as a great percentage of the people on it aren't what they say they are??

I still don't understand why people wonder what happened to Shergar. He was on the same desert island as Elvis, Lord Lucan, Dodi Al Fayed and Diana Princess of Wales. Surely it's common knowledge that the accident in Paris was staged? They phonied it up so they could have a normal life away from the cameras. Branson gave them an island, they had plastic surgery and are having a lovely time. They go riding on Shergar along the beach most mornings.

micshi · 27/02/2013 08:18

Raskolnikov, my contingency plan will be going home to bed, I'm away this weekend so I'll be wrecked anyway!

lubeybooby · 27/02/2013 08:49

Mornin all

Had a quick check out of PoF last night and noticed TT although his profile is still hidden he's updated it a bit and generally seems to have been around on line.

So I thought fuck it and re-activated my profile.

Still might see TT again if we are available at the same time sometime but I think seeing each other every 2/3 weeks is a bit optimistic really with how busy he is and trying to coincide his free time with mine, especially if he is seeing other people... which doesn't bother me but he has so little free time anyway I refuse to be back of the queue... So I'm having a look around.

Got a GEM of a message from someone telling me, genuinely, as a plus point about themselves that they would never force anal sex on me. Great! Not an anal rapist at least then. Gosh I'm ever so grateful.
