Online dating - i hate the great outdoors

[Nothappyatwork]

Every bloody profile I meet online seems to be detailing about how they love to get on the bike and go up a mountain they love to walk up a mountain to kayak down the mountain they are looking forward to jumping in a campervan and setting off to see the world they like to travel these people have like commitments and mortgages and like children they see at the weekend ?
The mind boggles.
In the UK it’s permanently fricking pissing down even during the summer when you get into the sticks where anything is vaguely green.

Obviously I wouldn’t mind a hike if we lived in Peru or somewhere less grey.

Are they all having a different kind of midlife crisis what happened to buying a Porsche and whipping me off to 5 star hotels ?

"I’ve no doubt your husband is probably one of the many that I’m messaging right now."

Really OP!
😮

@Nothappyatwork nah, he's outside so well beyond your grasp darling!

The only thing that’s ticking me off about a multitude of outdoors-loving OLD profiles at the moment, is that I specifically joined a site called “LoveArts” in the hope I’d avoid them. Instead, every other profile is looking for a bloke (I’m a male poster) who’s into outdoors living or endurance sports and precious little reference to enjoying reading, painting, going to the theatre or any kind of cultural activity at all.

I just don’t get it. Everyone’s entitled to their interests but why go on an Arts-lovers OLD site if you want a Bear Grylls or Andy Murray? Shouldn’t you be on LoveOutdoors instead? I actually went on a date with one woman, and she was lovely however it turned out she was a sports therapist who wanted our date to be a cross-country trek. She wasn’t all that interested in any arts that much, so needless to say there was no spark. I’m not sure if it’s the fault of the OLD agency or people not really thinking through what they want and where to find it.
