Welcome

soft I have done this too... I get to a point on pof of looking at the same old faces , idiots messaging , get fed up constantly blocking twats.

soft why not just send a text saying hi and acknowledge that yep POF is full of strange peeps, like we all know this. I agree with dippin I also get fed up of the whole thing and take regular breaks from it.

I am still a bit sad and very reflective. Keep mulling over what Mr Contradiction said. She can offer him more time and she can be more available. I should feel angry with him , so why do I feel sad and keep analysing myself.

Dont I would probably forget and get their names muddled, let alone remember the little details. Good luck with it all, sounds promising for you.

LittleBlue So what if she can offer him more time and is more available? Something I'm learning on here is if a man really wants to be with you, he'll move heaven and earth to do so. You deserve better than a man like that who rubs your nose in it, the cheeky sod.

I sent him a message replying to his and included my mobile number, saying it'd be good to hear from him. He's been online a few times since so I expect he's read it. I'll await his call/text .

I'll be writing up each date when I get home so I remember. Tomorrow we have professional guy from match. I'll give him a name post-date.

LBM I don't trust Mr Contradiction at all. Bollocks. I agree with SoftKitty.

Scarey Glad he's been in touch, and bet you're glad you didn't send that email, huh?

Are you dating purely for research now Dont?

You could call your book something like, Don't Do Dates Like Dont Does.

dont I think your book is brilliant! Maybe you should stop serialising it here and instead once you've got a publishing deal get a national paper to serialise snippets. Or maybe Mumsnet.

But of course keep PMing us with the excerpts

I am dating for research, but I want my book to have a happy ending too.So I hope one of my dates will be the right one.

Plus, in order for the book to work, the voice has to be authentic. So I'm only dating people I'd date anyway. I'm so broken after you know who that it'll take a special person to help me to move on.

Scarey, how did you get on? Did you go to see him?

Soft, I had a similar situation with a guy and sent him my number back. We did have a couple of texts but it fizzled out. Depends how jaded this guy is about dating I guess.

Don't I'm sure you'll meet a lovely guy in the end, someone just right for you who accepts the whole package.

Jarlin yes MrKids rang me n told me to stop being silly and his phone had just crashed (done this when I been with him) so that's all it was.

Had an amazing night last night. He came to mine with wine and food made me a lovely meal. Then we sat and watched a film with my kids and so that was lovely.

I said I was falling for him big time and he said he's a little wary as been very hurt but he feeling the same

I'm just floating on cloud 9 cos I just never thought this would happen to me

Can I just point you all in the direction of the baggage reclaim website? It's about getting the best out of relationships, recognising when someone isn't right for you and how to be your best self - it's one of my favourites (after Matthew Hussey!). I read this article last night on 30 signs that someone isn't really interested and sadly, MCS ticks 10 of these . I suppose it's only telling me what I already know but still feel a bit down about it. Still, at least I'm starting to recognise that he isn't right for me, unfortunately.

Hope you all have a lovely Friday .

Scarey WHERE ARE YOU?? What happened last night??

Saw Mr IT last night
We had a good chat he said he not ready for domestic bliss ext I had to laugh and asked what bought that on , he said a mate of his my ex in fact had said I was great but within 6 weeks we'd become like an old married couple.
I said that I don't want that ,and its true I spend my days cooking , washing cleaning and when I was 17 I was running a house doing the house work ext , the weekly shop, then went to uni and spent 3 years studying plus was unwell for a couple years so it's time I had time I had some fun.
He said he happy with that he not seeing anyone else, so I'm happy with that.
After serious chat over we had some wine, played golf on the Wii, ate pizza he had a bit of work to do so sent me to bed lol
Did wake about half 11 but he was bringing me glass of water
He spent night on sofa !

I'm ure I'll get heart broke but in mean time I'm having fun

Not really posted all week but feeling positive nothing to do with him
Lost 8 pound in 8 weeks with out trying
Eaten breakfast every day

Hi all

I'm back after a couple of days of living in the House of Ill.

Scarey I'm glad he finally got in touch. I actually think that his reasoning sounds fairly valid, however, I would also be cautious about jumping straight back in.

Hormonal I'm pleased it was just a technological issue and nothing more upsetting than that.

I'm seeing my... boyfriend... tonight.

I wasn't feeling well at the start of the week - just feeling a bit nauseous and dizzy. He texted throughout the day to check how I was feeling.

And I got "Are you pregnant :) xxx"

I don't know. I don't think he was suggesting anything, it was just nice to read it phrased like that rather than the horrified "You're not pregnant, are you?" I got from the last man I had sex with and then felt a bit ill afterwards.

jesy I hope things go well for you this time! x

I'll see I guess , he wasn't as cuddly but that coz he'd hurt himself but it was a nice night , I'm not going to ask when . See him again not for a bit , he asked me what I. Was up to today and well lie saying a movie n takeaway but on way hone I thought why n or treat myself lol

Oh shit Scarey that's not good - I can imagine how you felt when that Tinder app was staring at you. I'm really sorry.

You sound pretty sanguine about it all though which is a good thing.

So have you gone on Tinder to find him?

With hindsight I bet you're glad you didn't send that email. I never cease to be disappointed with so many of these daters - it's really hard not to tar them all with the same brush after a while.

Sounds like you've really got your head screwed on Scarey.

But I know that that your strength will come and go in waves. Good luck.

You found him?!

What's your next move going to be?
