Super Sorry you feel shitFlowers
I had a terrible dark mood a few weeks ago thinking I would be single forever. Shopping yesterday and seeing mostly couples holding hands, their men carrying the shopping. I struggled alone with my bags and got home to a cold and empty house.
Its not true that your not likely to be with anyone, if your not with someone now its because you have yet to fond the right one.

jesy but this is the same ex who's cheating on his fiancee or is going to right? so how can they be happy?

I must admit this woman I know (sort of friend) she has a young toy boy - my ex friend (who's the friend of hers) said she never liked the toy boy and that her friend could do better. But who's first on FB giving her congrats on her pregnancy?!

SuperFlyHigh · 01/12/2014 16:28

jesy hate to say it but he's probably got easier at hiding it, he may have a profile on a different site but with no pic, etc...

yeah i suppose it is nice you're friends.

yes, definitely decline the mates set up... no way!

"If I could buy us wine n tissues I'd join you right now."

For some reason I read that as wine n kisses. I think someone (those shoemaker elves again) has been messing with my reading glasses.

JuJuHeyHey · 01/12/2014 21:49

Woohoo, go Dippin! Lovely news.

Super sorry you're feeling shit, chin up Wine

Jesy is this a date with the 18 month guy or the wedding friend?! Either way, yay!

I've got a second date on Friday with MrPizza!! Smile

Declined a second date with MrStudent. Maybe it's stupid and shallow but I just have to want to kiss someone by the end of a date. I've been on several dates before with someone who I really wanted to fancy, as he was so nice - bit just didn't and it all ended up being really stressful and awkward.

SuperFlyHigh · 01/12/2014 21:53

Thanks Juju and any others....

Just Felt pants this morning.

JuJuHeyHey · 01/12/2014 22:07

Super, sounds like there's a good reason you aren't friends with these people. If you can't delete them then hide them from your newsfeed til you're feeling able to deal with them. And concentrate on letting positives in to your life.

MadeMan · 01/12/2014 22:18

Yeah get off Facebook for a while Super if you're feeling a bit pants; it's just like a Big Fake Smiley club where everyone pretends to be really happy and has to like everything that everyone else does, "yay, woooo, yippee..." etc, etc.

dippinmytoe · 01/12/2014 22:20

Thanks juju it's very exciting... I got very disheartened a few months ago reading a the loved up stories.. but it (Fingers crossed ) suddenly changes

JuJuHeyHey · 01/12/2014 22:28

Good for you!! I'm getting the happy envy thing!! EnvyGrin

TheCrow · 01/12/2014 23:07

Hello everyone, not sure if anyone will remember me, I think I last posted about 8/9 months ago and have pretty much nothing to report! Have been on approximately 3 dates in that time, two with the same person. Getting nothing but NSA messages, or conversations which start out ok but are quickly turned in that direction. Still looking for someone who wants to just go to the pub and have an actual conversation :-/

Juju

The date is some one I chatted to on pof 18 months ago but never came of it .

But we stayed in touch and it was impulse thing on Sunday for me to call by.

gottafindaman4yagirl · 02/12/2014 08:26

Dippin I hope I get to meet a nice man soon.
Still texting the man from pof that recognized me while I was on another date.He's very flirty and ott with compliments, he's very good looking but I don't want that to cloud my judgement.
He could be one of those men who burn fast, he's only been single 6 months.
Fate with him tomorrow, nervous for some reason.

SuperFlyHigh · 02/12/2014 09:27

TheCrow - I think I do remember you - I was here under HelloBoys (had to change for some stupid reason).

which sites are you on?

I am now wondering which sites to go on (Match Crapfinity subscription ended).

So far have done Guardian Soul Mates (not great), Lovestruck - ok but very boasty site a bit like Facebook really.

Done Doing Something - quite good met Kent Lad there and met another ex on Match Crapfinity.

have signed up (but not properly) to POF, got an old profile on MySingleFriend.

SuperFlyHigh · 02/12/2014 09:29

I'll hide the friends from Facebook - in fact they are both friends (one is an ex friend) but I don't see them now.

SuperFlyHigh · 02/12/2014 09:33

gotta - I wouldn't let the fact this man is good looking and has only been single for 6 months cloud your judgment - they can have just a hard time finding the right woman.

About 2 years ago I met a really good looking man (with friends) where I live - not in a bar in gardens of communal apartments who were having a BBQ - I stupidly only got his name... anyway I got the impression from him that women were mainly interested in you've guessed it, his looks. And he didn't like the bars in the area (very Towie).

About 4 years ago (why do I do this?!) I was chatted up by my brother's male model friend in a bar but me being me thought "why would he be interested in me?", he was prattling on about women, posh areas etc. Strange thing is my brother was mentioning him the other day... we passed by where he lives...

SuperFlyHigh · 02/12/2014 09:33

oh gotta good luck with your date! Smile

SuperFlyHigh · 02/12/2014 09:34

Dippin - I'm pleased for you.

I just can't shake what I had with Kent Lad (love declaration after 6 weeks) etc - I was apparently "the happiest people had seen me in ages" and now it's gone...

Sad

Gotta

You will find the right one.
He is out there.

The couple guys on pof have disappeared tbh not fussed. I texted Mr rig ( date at weekend) we going to to just go for a walk
He asked if I minded if the dog came , it's fine I think that will ease the pressure .
