There's a lot to be said for actually talking to someone on the phone instead of communicating via binary..................
....I'm smiling because I have no idea what's going on ...:)

What ever anyone thinks... It doesn't matter... Its done and dusted.
You will get plenty of these sort of rebuffs on dating sites.. some nice, some nasty... and maybe you will send a few nice replies saying thanks but no thanks.
That's life and in a few hours time 24hours would have gone by, then tomorrow 48 etc etc and it wont matter, because there will be another message come along or you will message someone else.
Life goes on and you didn't even know him and he didn't know you.0 -
Toffee you seem far too vulnerable at the moment to be internet dating.
You don't seem strong enough to deal with any rejections.
I think you need a bit of time to heal from your divorce & your recent break up before trying again.Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.0 -
Toffee sees it as the only medicine for her would be to get some men's company so its a catch 22.The word "dilemma" comes from Greek where "di" means two and "lemma" means premise. Refers usually to difficult choice between two undesirable options.
Often people seem to use this word mistakenly where "quandary" would fit better.0 -

Or maybe when someone is a bit lonely and has been treated badly in a relationship they want to find someone nice.
I have a friend whose marriage broke down and she started seeing someone almost immediately, 20 years on they are still together and were married as soon as her divorce came through.
Its not always timing thats the issue, its the quality of the person you meet.
Nothing wrong with wanting a bit of company, most of us feel like that at some points.0 -

I think if you are looking for dates, its great. As they say - get back on the horse.
The danger is desperately seeking a replacement.
My partner moved out yesterday:(
I guess my plan should be to date & enjoy the company & experiences.0 -

I know for myself I couldn't date anyone that quickly only a day after a partner had moved out. You may not have any baggage but until you start meeting people you may find you have.
Just chat and don't see it as meeting any potential partner.
Spend time thinking about what you want and have man free time.0
