Single life sounds nice, being able to do stuff without thinking about whether you're gonna get an earful when you get home because your partner got lonely
 
That's what mine use to do Oh and she got upset about who I spoke to what money I spent so now I can do what ever I want no questions asked

Or she'd come along and complain whenever I was talking to someone who wasn't her because I was 'ignoring' her for too long
 
Online dating is the scurge of the earth.

Even those who are Chad (boys and girls) dont have it easy.

If you ride on looks you can end up either waiting forever for mr/Mrs perfect as you are after best you can get.. And that might be the next guy. Candy shop curse!

If all you have is looks and you are looking for something meaningful you only put off disappointment.

As long as you aren't ugly as sin and have some personality I am 100pc convinced the human connection you can build with acquaintances is a better way to go.

Every date I had on pof the girl was either boring, crazy (bad), had very misleading pics or was after kids or a fling.
Some people (especially girls) probably get addicted to serial dating. Free dinners too! And others turn to it due to lack. Of social skills/too boring in real life.

Only times I know of its worked myself is from people who have only been on a week or so.



Join clubs! It's likely that people you meet there will be at least more on your wavelength!

I would hate to be born now with how social media is controlling people

It reminds when when I first joined up on the likes of POF around three years ago. A lot of the girls that you try to talk to either never respond to you, give off little to no interest message replies or simply have no intentions on meeting up with anyone what so ever - this is the case that I came across a few times and it seems these kind of people only browse dating sites to reel in messages so it makes them feel better.

The first time around with being on it I did meet someone which eventually led to seeing them for a good couple of months and she lived 35 miles from me as well, in the end that fizzled out as she started to go quiet and then revealed that she wasn't 100% over her ex... :rolleyes:

After that I came off POF for around six months. I remember the second time I joined back up and pretty much experienced the first highlighted points above (surprise surprise). However, it striked me that back to doing a search within a 30 miles radius - a lot of the women on there were the same ones that were on the searches months & months prior !! And they were always at the top of the list as they were always online. Again, this was a regular occurrence but the even bigger shock horror I had one day while in town during my works' lunch is that I actually spotted one of these women out and about :eek: It's either a situation like that - or when you come to look at the "who's viewed me" section of the website you come across that a couple of girls who you went school / college with have seen your profile lol :o

Fast forward to just over a year ago and I did have a bit of luck on there during a short period of time, I first met someone fairly local to me who seemed nice and honest but then eventually was only after one thing. The second girl I met after actually lived a 10 minute walk up the road from me lol! That however didn't last very long as she had "personal issues within herself" and didn't want to commit to anything serious. Then not long after her I met my current misses on there (She hadn't long joined up as it happened) and all is well.

Its the sorry state of internet dating. Too many people on sites such as POF think they are better looking than they actually are but its the only way they can get any attention from the opposite sex.
 
I went on a date a while back with a girl from Match.com, she slagged of her ex-boyfriend to death the whole time. I sneaked out the side door of the boozer, it always pays to have two mobile phones, one for trusted friends/family, the other for bunny boilers :p
 
I don't think relationships in general are all theyre cracked up to be

I find as I get older, I want fewer people around me, less hassle and less compromise (I'm definitely not compromising on not wanting children). I think my options from here are pretty limited judging by the women I've been meeting and dating. I'm OK with that. :)

Yes, relationships can be very rewarding but they can also be bloody hard work.

I couldn't be single, I like female company
Nah, I just have a real problem with Men who act like pathetic wimps then wonder why they get walked all over by Women. I'm very easy going and laid back generally.

Some men pay to have woman walk all over then, usually in high heels :D
 
I'm supposed to be meeting a lass tomorrow for coffee however she's out at a house party tonight so will decided tomorrow if she's definitely going or not depending on whether she is hungover/sick... :confused: Not cool if you ask me.
 
Friends with benifits is awesome.

Have a close group of 4 girls, go on holiday together, do date stuff, bedroom fun and no hassle.

Plus its nice that everything is 50/50 when it comes to cost etc.


Then a wider group of FBs for just booty calls.


Can't really imagine going back to having a nor al relationship

I used to have a female friend like this years ago. We don't talk anymore as she kept on doing it. Told her it was bad mannered and disrespectful. I don't bother with people like that anymore.

Yeah it is a bit disrespectful IMO. It is our first time meeting so first impressions are essential, so if she thinks it is going to be a messy night and be hungover, just cancel it completely and reschedule. :rolleyes:
