Dating thread 150 - I get knocked down, but I get up again....

[DaffoDeffo]

Dating thread 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 not 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. 11. Do unto others as you would have them do to you.

And a reminder - you don't know them until you know them!

Marlboro loving your dedication to the cause there

warls can you smell the desperation 😂

Repeat after me

I will get laid

🤣

warls 😁😂

love hope your interview’s gone well and, to echo others, have the chat with Mr SA x

😂Marlborough I know how you feel!!

Hello all
I've been lurking here for months thinking I don't have time to post but I've ended up
checking in to read your updates several (all...) day so really I'm feeling slightly voyeuristic and like it would be rude not to join in.

So I may add my tuppence worth sometimes.

All your experiences have been absolutely invaluable. I've been OLD for about a year and I'm having a great time but knowing what other daters are up to has made me feel much better about stuff. Like all the sex I've been having and all the men I've been meeting..

My friends are mainly married with kids so would be horrified. I'm 50 so it's great to read about all the other older ahem dating ladeez on here.

And also good luck in your interview Lovemusic. I right totally screwed one up recently due to nerves. Have you tried beta blockers... ? And I agree with the others... Mr SA needs a talking to. I've been following your exploits since Mr Kayak broke your bed so I feel like I know you a bit!!

peanut are you me?

I'm feeling quite hopeful about my Sunday date with Mr Curry - he's being pleasantly flirty and if he looks like his pics (and that's a big 'if') then there will be fizzy knickers ....

So many posts it's hard to keep track.
Good luck everyone with your upcoming dates.

I'm seeing Mr S again tonight. He's coming to mine again. He suggested last time that we could hang out/watch a film etc but judging by the theme of his messages today, I don't think we'll be watching anything

I did have a peek at his fab account and he hasn't been online for several days... is that a little stalkerish?!

Interview went well (I think), I don’t know if I have the job yet but really hoping I do as it a bit of a quirky different job doing something I am passionate about. I have tried to keep busy today and not think too much about Mr SA, I need to try and relax a bit and wait until I see him on Tuesday. One of my old irons has been messaging me all day trying to get me to go to his house for sex (Mr Young), it’s been around 6 months or more since I DTD with him and he still messages me most days despite me making up excuses not to meet and me telling him I’m seeing someone.

Fingers crossed for the job lovemusic

shitwith not been chatting long and I don't know much about him. He was one of the first to contact me. Sent a face pic which looked nice. His profile seemed to be similar to mine.
We were supposed to meet last week but he cancelled and I didn't expect to hear from him again. But on Monday he asked if I could meet this evening, which I couldn't but this morning my plans changed.
I've just discovered this is his first Fab meet. This will be my third social one. Not got any further with any yet.

😂😂 shitwith

Good luck MyOld - if he's new and has no veris please be careful.

shitwith 😂 that's funny

BatshitCrazyWoman he's got the green tick that says he's uploaded a verification photo. But that's all.
We're meeting for a drink in a busy pub that I know well. I've no intention of going anywhere with him.

ha ha ha shitwith that is VERY funny :)

Well done on the interview lovemusic, I hope you get the job, it sounds like you really want it and would love it.

Welcome peanut I lurked for AGES before I was brave enough to post.

Hope it goes well tonight batshit

No dates lined up for me, but I am meeting with friends later, so life is good :D

shitwith 😂😂😂

And lovemusic...An iron broke your bed? That would be going straight on my "in my head" dating profile if I was him:

Looking for shit hot sex with emotional connection and dates out, not a life partner
So good im liable to break your bed
Call me

@Man4allseasons sound likes you have had a great date! Hooray for FWBs working out :)

Hello new person marking a spot.

@ant May be my dream man!

I so enjoy reading all of your posts, I’ve to be careful not to read this thread at work or on public transport so I don’t end up cackling like a crazy woman at some of the dates you have all survived!!

Hopefully soon I’ll have some dates to post of my own. I dated last year a bit but currently in the middle of a mega body overhaul so I can put myself back out there without feeling like orca !

Hi Gotham. I'm almost feeling left out that I haven't had some of the dating disasters that others have, I want a funny dating story to tell

Need some odd advice- I have come across a man on bumble that I think would be absolutely perfect for my friend. Not my type at all but totally hers- what do I do?!!! She's not got the app so I can't just tell her about him and hope she finds him.
