Dating Sites?

[directhex]

i've heard some fairly positive reports for online dating from friends & associates. unfortunately the appropriate people aren't online right now so i can't get recommendations for specific sites

...too busy shagging.

Anyway I met my wife in my local pub, and was the second person out of my yeargroup at school to get married (third if you count the girl who had an arranged marriage in the sixth form ). If you knew me in my teens/early 20s, you'd know how utterly unlikely it was that it happened that way.

Still, if I was single now, I'd definitely be on the online dating sites. Good luck Smokey! (And everyone else looking for lurve).

I guess you could try, start talking to some girl you find interesting. If you go on and add each other on msn (or similar) and then you find that you can't really feel that bond to her..then you've at least tried it. I don't actually know what I think about online dating, I'd rather meet people irl, but I started talking to this guy in the UK and he has fallen for me..

I guess in one way that might be a good thing, since he has fallen for my "inside"..sure he has seen pics but that's not the same thing. We've been talking a fair bit over skype and so..but now the difficult thing is rather that I'm not feeling that really and the distance is messy! (I live in Sweden).

Good Luck anyway mate

Three people I know have met people from dating sites , Dating direct I think it was. One is now engaged after 4 months.

He did meet a couple of psychos first and one that was just after a sexual relationship, but if I was single, I definitely do it. At least you know that these people will have some of the same interests and you can sort of pick and choose if you're lucky!

[Smokey21]

Hahah, well im back, and it didn't go very well.

She kept ****ing texting her friend, which completey and utterly pisses me off, arrg. She also mentioned ex boyfreinds far to much for my liking.

Basically the last week she has been really nice and textin me pretty much filth, lol about how she wants me to shag her silly etc. Now what the hell am i supposed to think?? that she's interested right???? Well she said she was, but she's still cut up about an ex boyfreind, who treats her like complete **** and from the sounds of it, is a utter ass whole. She also kept saying she was tired, which i think she was, and she had blisters on her feet.

So all in all it was a totaly ****ing diaster, and i feel ****, lol.

The retarded thing is we got on pretty dam well.

Meh.

[Stewart]

And you don't have a blisters fetish?

Maybe you need to screen them better mate? No offense, but she sounds a bit rough.

and she had blisters on her feet.

could be worse...

Smokey, you'll get used to that. The online persona's people assume often bear no resemblance to their real life ones. It's easy to hide things when you are emailing or texting that only come out during conversation. I was lucky in that none of the girls I met turned out to be complete nutters, but until you meet them, you just won't know.

I've kind of given up on the online thing for now, since too many of the women on there set their sights extremely high and just plain ignore any emails sent to them. Now, while I'm sure they probably do get a lot of emails, is it that hard to click the button that says "no thanks" instead of being rude? Funnily enough, more than a few of them have been on there for a while...

I'm now trying to find activities that will bring me into contact with new women. Have a look at the Rambers Association's website (for example), as there are a lot of walking groups for people in their 20's and 30's and you would not believe the number of fit (in both senses of the word) women that go walking with them. You get to know each other in a nice, safe environment with none of the false pressure from online dating and without the judgement that says "he's not good enough looking for me, I'll ignore him."

Cheers,
Stephen

Look elsewhere mate, whether its another go on the site or out and about etc, you didnt join a dating site to be a shoulder to cry on.

I met someone online through Diablo of all things, just someone i played the game with, ended up seeing her on and off for a while, still holds a major place in my heart.



The Litten Tree was mentioned earlier in this thread, is that a chain of pubs or is it the one in Southampton?

Nah, it's not like that, lol she's not rough, she just had new trainers on.

I just didn't appreciate the fact she made the date so difficult for me. She wasn't nasty or nuthin, maybe she really was tired, or w/e.

She said i was to full on, which is crazy, the night before she said she she wanted to get a hotel, and ****, geesh!, and no i didn't say anything like that to her.

At the end of the night, when we walked back to the station, she then basically said she was surprised i was so full on and ****, and she's still thinkin about her boyfreind. Why didn't she mention it in the 2 weeks before, if she felt like that. That was when i got a bit pissed off, and it really ****ed it up.

After all that crap i still wanna see her again, iam a retard.
