Ok so now I'm on my 5th 29 yr old. I'm 40 something ffs. I also think they're older. 29 must mean early 30s??

I think I'm needing to get a good hold of a grip hereGrin.Why is this texting game so hard?I've been chatting on and off to this guy for about two months,started on tinder then moved to whatsapp(haha that changed to hardball),he is absolutely shite at texts which I kinda realised at first and dismissed him but then back in touch and have had a nice date and been trying to arrange another but with shifts etc it's not happening.I last heard from him on weds night I sent last message, now the thing is I know if I text him he will reply but I feel like I'm chasing after him iykwim.I have the tennis rule in my head.Confused
I've been reading all that's going on but I am hopeless at keeping upSad,so hope all are doing ok.

scarey sounds good to me. Just be yourself and what will be will be.

if something is really needling you I think you should talk about it. its fine to accept general advice about men and their wierd ways but at the end of the day if something is a big deal to you personally then you need to talk about it.

Hope you have a good weekend. sounds like it might be tough Sad

jesy · 09/05/2014 09:12

Morning.

well done jesy try not to overthink it... and I'd keep on as you were...

Soon or not MBB will invite me out for a drink so he says. I've not looked on Match Crapfinity for new blood but really need to upload pic to POF.

neiljames77 · 09/05/2014 10:02

Scarey123 - If he asks about it, just put on a fake smile and say, "oh that???...it's nothing.....just me and my mates having a laugh". Grin

neiljames77 · 09/05/2014 10:16

Seriously though, do NOT have your posts deleted. If he has worked out it's you by the posts and then sees "message deleted at posters request" on everything next to your name, he'll think, "what the fuck has she been saying on that dating thread?"

And if you are reading this thread Mr Scarey123, I only recommended that she dumps you when I didn't know all the facts.

neiljames77 · 09/05/2014 10:24

Ah....well nothing bad was said anyway. You were just worried about how he felt. Not to worry.

Rummikub · 09/05/2014 10:33

scarey Thanks how the heck did that happen! Hope you're ok.and nothing was put on here that you should feel bothered about.

TalisaMaegyr · 09/05/2014 11:12

What was that all about Confused

Rummikub · 09/05/2014 11:20

Would it bother people if they were messaging a scouser? I've mentioned this then they disappear?! What's that about?! :(

neiljames77 · 09/05/2014 11:29

Rummikub - Christ!!!! I get sent profiles of women that LOOK like Lily Savage and you're getting ones that talk like him. Grin
