    dunno what to make of all this as been single since divorce 3 years ago! now 36 and POF and pay to date internet sites didnt help me! :confused: maybe i should just stop bothering and accept the hermits life.
    perhaps its different for women then men?! good luck anyway- but watch your phone bill!! :)

    Hi everyone,

    Fidesmond- lol so true- I did get accosted by a bloke on Oxford Street today but think he was trying to get me to follow Christ, not chat me up lol!

    Sarahsaver- yeah I don't really fancy barwork, will have been on my feet all day at work so maybe sitting in a call centre would be better for me! It would be great to get offers from DFWs- how awesome!

    Claireabelle- so gonna check that out, man in uniform= fittie!!!!!

    Gemmzie- I know, so many nice men are messaging me but dunno if I could actually date them- we r in the same boat!

    MissMuppet- OMG that's amazing, so excited for you! What are you gonna wear? Is it dinner and a movie?!

    Stinky985- Ah don't be a hermit! Don't give up! I'm a hopeless romantic- reckon I'm gonna get swept off my feet (by someone with really STRONG arms lol). Maybe you will too....love is in the air!!!!

    Itsnever2lateisit?- Oh really?! Well you're top of my list then!!!

    I love this thread!

    Read this book!

    You need to play a little hard to get, otherwise there's no thrill in the chase for a man and they'll get bored quickly.

    Hehe... what a random post to log on and see!

    That date went a bit pear shaped, I must admit I was smitten but it just didn't work out. I have been seeing someone for about 3 months, but I finished with him last week... just wasn't the one!

    I am beginning to wonder whether I am destined for the single life... :(

    I have decided I won't be 'online' dating for at least 6 months too!

    Ah MissMuppet, sorry to hear that. Well if it's not meant to be it's not meant to be, plenty more fish, you only live once and all that malarkey! xx

    Hey MsShoes I was in exactly the same boat - and am the same age - and the best way i've found to meet lads is through friends...we're all pretty poor so we have house parties, cook dinner for each other etc and everyones got friends of friends.There are also loads of free things going on....like on monday me and a friend are going to a free yoga session, perhaps not the best place to meet men, but itll be fun and every new friend you make is likely to lead to others...and lads ;)
