    Well think I may have messed up after a great first date.
    Came home from work, phone almost flat so put it on charge, went down stairs, came back up about and hour and half later, 2 texts 1 asking how I was, then another saying never mind I thought you were decent but clearly not.

    I've replied apologising saying it was on charge upstairs and I didn't hear it down stairs, but had no response back :(

    Back to square one all because my phone was up stairs on charge

    Sounds like you had a lucky escape there, getting snotty because you didn't reply to a text straight away?

    It isn't your fault she is a needy, clingy control freak. Imagine yourself 6 months down the line if she is like that now.

    Yep, getting snotty after not replying within 1.5hrs is semi-psychotic.

    Oh Scotty!
    She sounds insecure.
    Was with a guy like that for 6 years - drove me to insanity!
    Very stressful.

    don't lose heart scotty.

    she does sound a bit insecure though.

    she's probably making you wait for her to reply now.

    not the sort of games you want to be playing!

    i've been on POF for a while now - start chatting to someone, say we'll meet up for a drink and then never hear from them again.

    I think there are just too many people on the site - hence the name, i guess!

    great reading everyones experiences

    i have dipped my toe in the pond of POF but found it all too daunting , i did chat to one guy but didnt have the courage to persue beyond a chat online and apart from small talk had very little common interest

    do people actually read profiles ? , i took my photo off as got some right creepy comments which i found off putting too , not sure if thats the norm

    maybe am not reday for the dating game and dont want to go back looking at the moment as the guy i chatted too always seems to be on there , is there a way of blocking so certain ones dont see you on there ?

    best of luck folks am sure there's someone nice out there for all of us

    You can block people from contacting you, just open the message and you will see at the bottom of the page an option to block them.

    There are some good people on there, but an awful lot of creeps, players, weirdos etc

    Good luck! Happy fishing!
