I've pretty much given up on the dating sites for all the reasons mentioned above. Can't even find someone nice to have a decent chat with, never mind date. Haven't been out since before Christmas and no chance of meeting anyone at work. Good job I enjoy the single life!

Your dealing with a bloke. Subtlety is wasted. If you were trying to seduce a girl, then (alas), you'd need subtlety...

Have faith woman. Remember, plenty eye contact. Copious amounts of eye-contact. In fact, next time you meet friend, keep looking at him. Sublety is not good when dealing with men.skint_spice wrote: »spill, how about you? met anyone? even virtually?

So what's it like from the male perspective?
I'm not quite sure really. I'm not overly keen on internet dating sites although I have tried one or two. Nowadays, I'm more likely to rely on the free-to-use sites rather than throw good money away ( or so it seems ). I think that with POF you could get pretty much whatever you wanted IF the folk on there actually mean what they say. I put in my "requirements" and it came back with 615 people within ten miles of me.
Another free one is Midsummers Eve. I'm on that one too and met someone a while ago but nothing happened.

Hi Sammz,
Do you mind me asking whereabouts in the UK you are? Don't be too specific and obviously don't say if you don't want to.

and your plan of action is??? POF?
have given up on the friend so will probably be much less subtle if I meet anyone new - don't have light years of friendship to screw up!Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

ah then it all unravels...I don't say anything early doors as I need a couple of drinks to steady the nerves and then suddenly next thing it's at a point where I realise I'm too drunk to make an impassioned plea and he'll just think it's the drink and then next I'm home alone again - whoops!Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
