He’s great so far...we’ve only been texting and one phone call after meeting online a week ago. First date this weekend. But..here goes..

I don’t like his name or his accent!

Stupid reason to be put off?

Okay maybe I was a bit harsh then. Give him a go.

Lol Aprilshowersarecomingsoon , the first thing I thought was that a bad name or accent would completely turn me off in bed!! That's where it matters most IMO :)

I met my DP on the internet last year and he has the wrong accent from me and the same name as my late grandad!! To say I was skeptical is an understatement but almost a year on we are going great so you never know unless you go for it!

I frequently blocked people on dating apps for writing alot as a word. Or could of. Shock

user3910 · 22/02/2019 22:32

Could of ... that’s one of the worst!!!

ffs stop with the guessing game just post what his name is.

I have to ask why you're wanting to go out with him?

His name is Darren and he's from Birmingham.

I'm happily married to a man with a not nice name. But it's his and he has a Scottish accent which is great!

I think voices and laughs matter, names less so. How does his laugh sound? The doctor bit would work in his favour - but check he doesn't have a god complex.
