Am I right to be really really annoyed about this.......

[LadyBlaBlah]

So, I have my own business and a few weeks ago was at one of those hideous networking meetings. It is clearly a business venue.

I got speaking to a guy who also had his own business and we had quite a lot of business opportunities in common, so we were talking for quite some time. Exchanged business cards and said we will keep in touch.

So, I sent a message on Linked In saying "I met you at the networking meeting in X and would like add you to my professional network".

I have just received an email back saying " Hi sexy , great to see you on linked in, stay in touch etc"

I am really really incensed by this. My immediate reaction was "oh my god was I flirting with him?", but I bloody well wasn't. We were talking about business.

This is fucking objectification in practice and I really fancy a bit of Thelma and Louise style revenge. Do you think he deserves it, if so suggestions please.

Jeez, I thought he was a fucking decent guy too.

I was wondering "Who is this poster and what has she/he done with the real dittany?"

at crap social skills.

dittany, have you been on the sauce?

I think Dittany is in love.

I am in the process of starting up an indoor play centre in the Sidcup Kent area. Found myself slightly short of funding. If anyone is interesting in investing up to 20,000 and becoming part of the enterprise then please let me know.

EDK, don't you think that annoying people by posting something irrelevant on random threads will actually make them less likely to invest? I certainly wouldn't want to go into business with someone who behaved like that.

Oh, isn't EDK joining in the spirit of the thread by pretending to be a dodgy businessman?

Apologies for popping in uninvited btw, I suddenly realised I hadn't made a nuisance of myself in the feminism section for ages.

Come on EDK, put a bit of effort in! Call us dolls or ask if our husbands are looking for investment opportunities.

Now I want to know if Sexybloke has ever got back to LadyBB

Oh how I wish I could click 'like' on people's posts on MN!

Loving this thread and EDK :))

I would complain to LinkedIn as well - they do have codes of conduct they ask people to abide by.

I have £20k to invest. I'm just waiting for the guy from Lagos to drop it into my account. PM me!
