    Date today went well, she seems a really nice person and her pictures definitely don't do her justice, seeing each other again for a meal on Thursday :)
  • Lisa he sounds like he doesn't handle rejection well. The girl he was about to 'have sex' with obviously didn't make too much of an impression on him or sustain his intrest that much if he took the time to think about & message you before he did the deed lol, sounds like a liar too. Him keep cropping up is annoying, but as long as your not letting him get to you, i would just totally not even bother replying to any communications at all, if he has your number block him. If you want to give him a taste of his own medicine link us to his profile and if needs be we'll insult en masse lol

    lou-b sorry it didn't work out for you, it was going so well. As for him calling, you seemed to give yourself some pretty good advice - if he's messed up you're best off out of it. Also in your post you didn't sound too gutted, my personal opnion is on and up!

    Barny - Nice work, good luck with that :)

    Hmm been chatting (and slightly flirting) with a really nice guy on a forum i go on BUT there is another girl on there who very obviously likes him and has made it clear "he is hers" (even though his profile says single and looking!)

    Can't really be doing with drama so not sure whether to pursue him

    Oh it is tempting but I'm trying to be an adult about it lol was thinking of setting up a fake profile and arranging a meet then watch him turn up and wait :D

    I know if I was about to have sex with someone I'd not be thinking of telling anyone else about it lol I did think he was lying but it is just so sad.

    He has my number but doesn't use that to contact me which is odd, he waits until he sees me online. He did contact me on whatsapp but I blocked him on that.

    Talk to him, I have had this in the past when I used to use forums (only use this now) and there are some weirdos who latch on to others and claim them as theirs when in reality they have never met or in some cases never spoken on the phone etc.

    So just ask him x

    Thanks, not really that bothered. Truth is I was going to call it off myself on Wed as I had a feeling I was being lied to, gave him the benefit of the doubt though. Should know by now, always trust my gut instincts!!

    He cancelled a date saying he got his wallet stolen and was in such a bad mood he wanted to be on his own. Talked on the phone and he made a comment about how it would prob turn up though. This set me thinking that it was just an excuse and low and behold I get a text the next day (thurs) saying he had found it. Apparently it was in a different pocket and he hadnt looked there! Im sorry but if I thought Id lost my purse my jacket would have been turned upside down and inside out looking for it!
    I was having an operation that day though so just left it, had other things to worry about.
    Lesson learned, ALWAYS trust your gut lol.

    Wish now I had continued mailing the other two guys Id been chatting to when I met him lol. Should have kept my options open after all.

    Hi everyone, you may remember I posted about my friend that I was helping due to her lack of a computer and her dyslexia, and the fact that she had met someone through OK Cupid, well he turned out to be a complete waste of time, a rat of a man who suceeded in ruining what was supposed to be a really nice weekend for her recently, he simply made her very late for a wedding which was being held some miles away, had no money whatsover on him, so the little money she had she had to use on parking, a total of £18 in the end, I feel that he deliberately made her late for the meal, too, as how can someone who had said they had been to the same town a week previously not know their way around, and keep taking wrong turns when they have a sat nav? Then sit during the entire reception without even buying a drink, she had to ask for the £4 back from her parking money she gave him to buy herself a glass, sorry, but that guy didn't want to be there! AND to top it all off he didn't turn up for her Birthday party on the Monday, just sent a text to say sorry but he was still at work, He knew how important this weekend was for her, she had put her 50th Birthday celebrations off for the last two Birthdays as she actually lost her Mum in the same week when she was 50, the wedding was someone who she has worked for for many years and who has treated her like family, when her own family is pretty rubbish, she was so looking forward to it, and she is now really down and fed up. We are going to get her back on track, and she is going to be a bit more savvy this time round, only going to use two free sites, probably POF and Freedating, I have kept up with the thread and I will let you know how she gets on, weirdos and all!!
