Oh bastarding hell Ike - was he not at all attractive ?

OhWesternWind · 07/04/2013 18:39

Oh no Ike total bummer

Pomegranatenoir · 07/04/2013 18:40

Oh no ike will you meet again or absolutely nothing there at all??

ike1 · 07/04/2013 18:42

Yes ...really liked his mind and personality lovely eyes but no, just no. Snapes' experience with the guy in the leather trench springs to mind. I feel like a totally shallow bastard though. Hey that is EXACTLY why you should meet someone IMMEDIATELY!

Battery is about to go but ill be back

Snapespeare · 07/04/2013 18:49

ike don't feel bad. If it isn't there, then you can't make it be there.

ike1 · 07/04/2013 18:50

Still...good news on the green tea bag front...really sorted the eyebags!! And at least I didnt run away!

ike1 · 07/04/2013 18:51

Yeah.. infact it couldnt have been further from THERE. ..oh I am a shallow twat cos if I had fancied him I would have been in there and all over him like a rash.

ike1 · 07/04/2013 18:54

Right that is absolutely the LAST time I am having these convos with ANYONE till I meet em....no way.!

KinNora · 07/04/2013 18:57

It's not shallow though, is it ? You can't magic up the attraction to someone if it's not there.

KinNora · 07/04/2013 19:00

Part of this whole OD thing is getting used to listening to what you want and what makes you happy, no more compromising on things that are important to you.

lubeybooby · 07/04/2013 19:01

Oh noooo ike!

Sorry it turned out that way. Bugger!

You did meet pretty quickly though at least it wasn't dragged out over months or anything.

OhWesternWind · 07/04/2013 19:02

Oh Blimey I'm setting off in two mins! Please be lovely, Cakey! V nervous. I'm going to walk down as he's coming to my town, bit of exercise should steady me a bit I hope.

KinNora · 07/04/2013 19:04
ike1 · 07/04/2013 19:04

Enjoy OWW! Good luck love! Yeah he has just sent a lovely message saying nice to meet and I returned the same. It was clear I was not interested at the end and ...well there is no need to SAY it is there..

OhWesternWind · 07/04/2013 19:05

lubeybooby · 07/04/2013 19:05

Good luck OWW!

ike1 · 07/04/2013 19:05

Its just so draining to share thoughts and feelings with a person in an intense way and then ...zip.

scoobydooagain · 07/04/2013 19:09

Hi all, sorry for only posting when after advice (but reading and following every day). Being seeing POF man for 7 weeks, seeing at least twice a week, texting everday. Spent yesterday afternoon- this morning with him and for some unknown reason I signed into POF this evening (my profile is hidden) and he had been online today. It must have been not long after leaving mine as he was picking up his daughter late morning. I'm gutted, when this happened with a previous man I smiled, today I cried. Can't even say why I signed in, with previous guy had a funny feeling but not this time next 2 dates even arranged! First couple of weeks when I was still logging in, he hadn't been logging in.
Any chance there could be an innocent explanation!!

KinNora · 07/04/2013 19:11

Ike I know, I'm sorry, love, it's absolute shite

scooby maybe someone messaged him and he was checking his mail? It's a rubbish feeling but best thing to do is to discuss it with him when you see him next. Try to bring it up casually if you can.
