My recent ones were I was chatting to guy for a few days here and there. Suddenly out of nowhere he writes me essays about how terrible his last relationship and she abused him. He ended up trying to commit suicide. I hadn’t asked him about any of that and we had kept it quite light hearted before that.

Last night, a guy I was chatting to for that day only wanted to meet up. We wouldn’t have been able to meet for a while due to his kids. Although I didn’t feel like going out, I mustered the energy to get dressed up etc. He texted me an hour before to say he had a headache and couldn’t come. I didn’t bother responding. He then calls me half hour later and I think fair enough, I speak to him and his voice and way he talks - I realise straight away I wouldn’t find him attractive at all.

Would just like to get to date 2 or 3 with a normal person where we both fancy each other! Anyone else had some rubbish experiences recently so I know I’m not the only one…..😫😆

Had 16 experiences that ranged from vile to disgusting to hilarious. Number 17 is the love of my life. In retrospect I was too fucking hopeful with the dross

My advice is chat for a few days, phone call, then coffee only. Then don't worry about being nice, send a text that you aren't interested, then block

Loads! I had one guy, who on a first date, 10 minutes after we’d met, leant over to me across the table and picked something from my nose, whilst saying “here, I’ll clean you up”!!!

Another guy turned up to a first date and reminded me so much of an old friend. The way he walked, spoke, smellled. It was like being on a date with my brother.

another, a few days into texting, casually dropped in he has a 20 year old FWB and would I like to join them? We were 40…

one seemed to be going somewhere after a few dates until he told me he was moving back in with his ex wife as she wouldn’t sell the house. I politely told him it was a no from me and he said the alternative was to move in with me, with his son!

I am certain there are plenty more.

I have now found someone who brilliant, so they are out there

I was chatting to a guy a few months ago. We exchanged numbers and he then proceeds to bombard me with texts. Texts about how to please a woman! He was literally copying sentences from some kind of porn wiki how. He text me one message per sentence , hundreds of texts in the space of 30 minutes ,he then sends me a link to a document he'd put together of the different sex positions he's always wanted to try 🤣.
He will forever be known as "love doc man".

@youlightupmyday yes I have realised the importance of speaking on the phone. You can tell so much from a voice. I never wanted to before as I hate phone calls but it’s so worth it

@Inthesameboatatmo that is seriously intense 😂 Why do they change so much once they have your number. Some seem to be desperate to get your number and it does make me wonder why
