Looks like this needed to be kicked off again..

The Rules

  1. The first rule about the dating thread is you don't talk about it with people you're dating.
  2. Develop a thick skin
  3. Do no invest emotionally too soon
  4. It's all BS until it actually happens
  5. Trust your gut instinct
  6. People vanishing, lying & being generally weird is not your fault
  7. You are the prize - they should be trying to impress you
  8. If it's not fun- stop
  9. Loo update is mandatory
10. No dating the thread

Yeah you are right sassy I'll get a cheapie PAYG. Just given him my email address on which he can Google hangouts or just email me, hope that's not made me look too keen Confused

MyGastIsFlabbered · 08/01/2016 20:50

I don't want to message CS do I?

Had one message, just 'MILF' from a 20 year old in America.

Was chatting with one person, he seemed ok but then just messaged me 'nice tits by the way'

Been chatting to IT who could be the main contender so far, seems very nice and hasn't got dirty yet. He's not made any suggestion of meeting up yet, but maybe it won't be such a bad thing to go slowly.

Stripper has disappeared before I got to ask him if he did the full Monty.

TooSassy · 08/01/2016 20:56

No. No messaging CS

When was the last you heard from him.

LOL @ MILF!!! That's funny!

MyGastIsFlabbered · 08/01/2016 21:00

He's ignored my last 3 messages and he's on POF right now.

NiceTits has apologised for that remark. I'm not quite sure how to proceed, he's about 6'4" and 18 stone whereas I barely reach 5'0.

IT seems nice, his pictures don't make me go wow but that's not the be all and end all, the thing that really drew me to his profile was him mentioning 'they're, their, there'!

PrizeyPrize · 08/01/2016 21:05

gast you are getting some characters!! What are they subconsciously seeing on your profile?

Lacoba66 · 08/01/2016 21:24

Prizey in your position, I wouldn't give out my number either. A second phone, or create an email address just for dating.
I have given mine out (not to many) and not had anything dodgy- yet Grin

I have a date with Mr Forest set for next Saturday...and I'm getting far too invested. I'm trying to remind myself that it's not real until you meet, but failing miserably- lol. We've switched to off- line and he's just as nice. Have googled his number and nothing coming up.

I did with Mr Forest again for a coffee tonight, but just as friends. He is a nice guy and acknowledged that OLD was probably too soon and that he needed to sort his shite out first. I'm happy that I've made a friend (interesting guy). So that's my update.

Lacoba66 · 08/01/2016 21:25

I did meet^

Lacoba66 · 08/01/2016 21:28

Mygast I have had similar remarks and pulled them up (let it go once is me) but if they do it again, then it's block from me. Shows no respect from the outset!

I won't message him, I'm just beginning what could be a promising filthy conversation with CheekyChef, 9 years younger than me & gorgeous. Obviously not long-term material but there are worse ways to spend an evening Wink

Well done on Bitching Soho!

PrizeyPrize · 08/01/2016 22:12

Well done waving!! what did he say? Was it a booty call?

Curly just messaged, said he's going to try Google hangouts tomorrow, so me not giving phone number or being unavailable for 2 weeks doesn't seem to have put him off....big grin on my face right now like this ----> Grin
Where's twiggy??

PrizeyPrize · 08/01/2016 22:14

gast that is awesome, you are so funny Wink

tanyadm · 08/01/2016 22:14

WAVING I AM BLOODY PROUD OF YOU!

MississippiMud314 · 08/01/2016 22:25

mygast I wouldn't bother getting in to a filthy convo with somebody you haven't met! Look what happened to twiggy last night. You could show up and then feel like there's a totally false, but sexually loaded, intimacy there. And he's a hairy trucker. can somebody look at your profile? I too have not had ONE single dick pick. No nude shots. I think I deliberately channelled a wholesome vibe in to my profile. Didn't want anybody thinking I looked like their best bet.

Good work waving You're doing better than I'm doing because I spent half an hour vibering bear and then we ended up skyping for another half an hour. I enjoyed it though. I don't feel it's standing in the way of what I want, a relationship. I don't think so anyway. I don't want him to be my boyfriend. I just like talking to him. I feel close to him. But, I will not reply to his messages now for the rest of the weekend. He knows I'm out tomorrow night with H and busy Sunday. Am I giving my company away for free, even if I'm not sleeping with him? Does it matter if I've decided I don't want him as a bf? we have no plans to meet up btw.

MississippiMud314 · 08/01/2016 22:31

twiggy if you're not going to the toilet for long loo breaks, then I hope tonight's date is more successful than last night's?

MyGastIsFlabbered · 08/01/2016 22:36

Mississippi we may not actually ever meet up so for me it's just a bit of fun.

Is anyone going to get thread 94 underway and post a link, we're nearly full here

MississippiMud314 · 08/01/2016 22:45

wow, yes it is! It's been a great thread. Twiggy will get back to update us and the thread will be full!

tanyadm · 08/01/2016 22:45

Goodness me, Gast, you don't half attract them! You win the best stories prize!

MississippiMud314 · 08/01/2016 22:48

tanyadm will you do the honours? new thread?

Wine
tanyadm · 08/01/2016 22:53

Eek, the responsibility....bear with me!

MississippiMud314 · 08/01/2016 22:57

I hope I'm not still on thread 100!

tanyadm · 08/01/2016 23:01

I dunno, we do get through them pretty quickly!

MyGastIsFlabbered · 08/01/2016 23:06

I'll be here to entertain you all for a while yet!

MississippiMud314 · 08/01/2016 23:08

Me too, I reckon I'll be on thread 200!
