Right, you lot are honoured as I've actually fired up the PC so I can type properly instead of pecking away on the phone plus I want to write a nice long e-mail to Alpha
I am on the Pimms too - just that kind of day. Anyone tried the special edition blackberry and elderflower one? And what was the name of that elderflower liqueur that you make Twinkles or Sparkles or whatever out of? I have a bit of a yen for it in this hot weather.
Wisey what a tool! Absolutely no chances any more ever. I am becoming a lot less tolerant and would give maybe one chance but that would be it, end of. The other bloke, hmm I have a friend like that, lovely as a friend, not really a hot date. He has man bags and little covers for his phone that he changes on a regular basis to match in with his outfit du jour, and me I just CBA with all that.
Title my default and usual gut reaction is if in doubt, say nowt. I think this is one of those situations where it will all become clear as time goes on. It seems like he's doing everything right and the only flags are the green ones, so just carry on as you are. I think he will say something before too long. I know it's bloody difficult though as it would be nice to have some comfort that you're not on a hiding to nothing, but I think I'd try and just leave it a while.
Queen - sod the ex. He is your EX which means tough titty if he sees you on a dating site. What's he going to do about it? Nothing.
Daisy sorry but sending two messages is nothing. Just go online one evening when you have an hour or so to spare and message at least half a dozen possibles (if you can find that many). Also, you being online will bump you up on the Who's Online section so more people will see you and message you. I think the trick with PoF is to keep logging in and out and that really helps to get the messages going as you are much more visible. I don't think it's an age thing, just a numbers thing. I am quite lucky I suppose as I don't tend to go for younger men so haven't had a problem with only messaging older men, so can't really help there.
Amy - he could have been online doing all sorts - checking messages, having a quick look around if he was bored at work, replying to someone he's got friendly with on there (as opposed to a dating-type person) - which to him might not count as he's not actually setting up dates or anything. I'd be tempted to give him the benefit of the doubt here. On the other hand, he could be trying to pull the wool over your eyes, so it's probably best to keep your wits about you and see if anything else like this happens again.
Raenbow where's the loo update??????
Strong you're making me smile with all these classes of rejects.
Bant probably not - couldn't you crop them and just have yourself looking foxy? I'm not a fan of Other People on profile shots as a general rule.
