  • well, 2 more nasty messages today from girls on POF.

    1- I'm not desperate enough to even want to know you, and if I was you'd have to be the only breed able man in the world left

    2- f##k off you glasses wearing freak, get a life and meet some one the proper way

    Such a wonderful pair I'm sorry I missed those chances

    well,what a funny way to spend an evening! enjoyable actually,especially after i'd found the "filter out the weirdos" button.

    i have to say,theres a lot of normal,chatty,not-bad looking blokes on POF,

    if you are thinking about joining up,i'd say give it a go!

    horrid women,not the sort you'd want to meet anyway!
  • Well I've just got back from a second date. Met him for a quick drink last week and we got on really well and arranged to meet for dinner tonight. He's a lovely guy but there just wasn't a spark between us.

    Oh well.....back to the drawing board! Only been doing this for almost two weeks but I'm getting tired of it already :(

    :s lovely replies there! Sounds like they aren't even worth the time you spent messaging them in the first place. Onwards and upwards! :)

    Its early days, In my first 2 weeks I could have had a date every night. You will find it slows down and you will see the same faces so enjoy it in the early stages x

    Just go for it :D it is scary but I did the whole waiting longer before meeting and each time I was disappointed I think we both built up an illusion of what would happen.

    The best outcomes have been where I have met within a week of chatting.

    I have also found that if you wait too long they will move on to someone else.

    My rule is (If I was looking) if a man drags his heels about meeting I'll move on.

    lisaB85- i've PM'd you,would you mind looking at my profile for me please,
    give me any tips etc,i can take advice!

    THANKYOU>
    big thank you to lisaB85,she had a look at my profile and gave me some good tips.

    maybe she should start charging us for the approval service!
  • I cant believe I've missed this thread before I could write a book on it!

    On
    POF, BeNaughty, Smooch and was on girlsdateforfree

    now tend to just use pof. I also recently dated that guy who talked about himself all evening! geese he gets about!

    I find it doesn't matter what their profile is like, how well you've got on in written word, how much you've got in common, how long you've been chatting etc - basically if the chemistry is there, it's there and I always like to decide after a second date. I'm set to hide atm, due to having a few dates with a gorgeous guy, way too young for me, he's 31, I'm 44, but I'm sticking with it. Pof tells me I've been there for 3 years, but I've only been seriously looking for over a year; had a tonne of meets though, I tend to reply to most well mannered people and have meet some lovely people who I still see as friends and we often do the groupon meals; my profile also says friends are welcome :)

    my user name is the same as on here - oooopppps back in the days of using the same user name but i've given up caring tbh. It's been a month with this guy and he came up to see me on boxing day, our anniversary :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm taking it one day at a time but always been determined never to give up.
