    No it was just 'helpful' advice on share picking - am just disappointed to find it got through. Must check if I can report it - really doesn't belong on MSE of all places!

    :mad: @ your nasty POF sender - v strange. All I got on OKCupid was 20 yr olds looking for dirty IMs and I'm afraid they went away disappointed. Though have just remembered there are some more profile viewers I haven't checked on Match... back shortly :)

    Oooh hot neighbour :j

    I have always wanted one of those but never found one that doesnt come with a wife attached :wall: The gorgeous guy who subcontracts at work & who I have a shallow & totally superficial lust for, came in to the office the other day :) with his wedding ring & baby :cry:

    I was totally having a flirtation thing with a guy at work.

    And then in a much later conversation he kept dropping the 'we' bomb...

    We're on holiday to France
    We're looking for a new place to live

    aargh.......

    We all deserve hot UNATTACHED neighbours...it must be out there in the cosmos for us???

    Rosa - how are your Match matches?
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    I have a hot neighbour and think he's single but haven't seen him in a while.

    BTW if I move into the new flat (see my diary) it's right opposite the 20 year old's who I got caught skulking out of on jan 1st by a colleague!!!! I can't escape my own naughtiness.

    Emailing a hot man on POF and he's just told me he wants NSA fun too, think it could be a date!

    IRosa - how are your Match matches?

    Hmm, one possibility. Am debating doing the 3 day trial and maybe a month's subscription just to see how it goes.

    Have been winked at by a couple of guys while I was on there but neither appeal on first glance. This is one of the things I don't like about these sites - I feel really mean for ignoring people, but on the other hand I don't want to spend hours replying to people I'm not likely to have anything in common with at all! Advice anyone?

    :rotfl:

    I want a hot new neighbour too... or colleague... you would think I could find one at uni but there aren't that many men and most of them are married! Did see one guy check me out in the canteen yesterday though... maybe I will do a bit more socialising there.

    I want my lovely long distancer to ring me but it's unlikely :(. Am not taking it personally as am pretty sure he has a lot going on at the minute but it's a shame as really liked him. Ah well never know who else I might really like :D

    Sarah - your turn next, now get snapping & wrapping girl, come on, sell, sell, sell :D

    Have spent the evening snapping and wrapping:( Oh the tedium, the tedium, the tedium:(. I am determined to keep at it as if I have break from it I don't think I would be able to force myself to go back. I have 25 items listed now. Am sick of going to the Post Office with a load of parcels only to get home and find someone else has paid and I need to go back:mad: Am a bit worried as I still only have £2 of bids on stuff I was hoping to get £50ish for over the weekend. :(

    edit: have just checked and I have sold a £15 item I listed 5 mins ago! I should have asked for more:rotfl:

    Yay to hot neighbours:j It's only what we deserve after having to tolerate OCD flatmates.:D

    Rosa we are far too busy and fabulous to reply to everyone who emails us. I get loads of emails due to asking for fun and frolics and just ignore anyone I wouldn't want to frolic with - what's the point otherwise. I'm sure they are lovely people but I'm not on there to make friends! Happy hunting X
