Thanks Lorna for those thoughts. I texted him this morning and he has since replied, but I'm sensing a lack of interest.... So my instinct from last night may have been right - he'd have me if I was keen, but isn't going to put a lot of effort in to ensuring that... Stuff that!
However if he's just busy today or distracted or tired or whatever, and comes back with a bit more effort, I might give him another try - I do think alcohol would help. I did find some bits of him attractive - nice eyes, nice smile, and I think probably quite a fit bod - but other bits made me wince a bit (tiny hands! and a bit scruffy).
There must be something there for me, otherwise I'd happily just text him a farewell... So we'll see! Going to spend my Friday eve with a large glass of white and my new POF profile (hidden, of course), see if I can get some new chat going :). Not expecting to find many Germans in my neck of the woods though!
Welcome Eglute! I agree with others that while OD seems pretty artificial, it's also quite efficient, can be a good laugh (you need to have your thick skin in place though), and is good for those of us with DCs, no single friends, and dislike of shabby nightclubs. Which site(s) are you using?
