Well, I had my first date with someone from POF tonight, and my first non-televised date since becoming single.

She's my age (26), originally from Oregon (I LOVE her accent), and able to live in the UK for another 2 years, haha. Anyway, we'd been chatting all week on MSN, must have spoken for nearly 15 hours, as well as various texts. She seemed very to the point, and she didn't seem to get my sense of humour which I was worried about.

Anyway, I'd only seen a few pictures of her and she looked nice. But my God, when I saw her tonight, she looked bloody stunning! She is quite small and petite, which I love, and yeah, she was just 'wow!. Went for a nice drink, felt like I was having to lead the chat quite a lot which I feel I did well enough, we laughed, and it was all good. Went and had some food, she was really quiet during the food but I think she was quite tired from work. She opened up a bit though (not like that).

She livened up a bit towards the end and the chat was good again. Walked her back to the tube and she was asking if I was around tomorrow night, I'm busy so I said not really. She is off to the US on Wednesday for 10 days so we agreed to keep in touch and sort something out for when she is back.

So yeah, I love her.

She doesn't sound awesome from your description, sounds pretty boring and not that interested to me. But best of luck nonetheless.

A girl with a cute accent and good looks can do that to a man. The girl I met in America was awesome in the same ways, however not gf material. Which is a huge shame.

To be honest, you're both right I think. Hot, nice accent, it's won me over.

She was pretty blunt on messenger just now so I'm not sure I can be bothered. I'm just going to leave it I think and see if she contacts me.

Mate, I've been there so know how it feels. The one I met in America is basically a 10. We got on perfectly during the time I spent with her then talked on the internet every day for a Month until she got snapped up by someone else. Funny thing is that only lasted two Months and she's now back on my case. I'd post a picture but know it would get abused lol.

Amazing... you were smitten a few hours ago and now "she was blunt on MSN so youre going to leave it and see if she contacts you?". That's a little... odd.

That's just the afterglow of being bowled over by someone who appears to be absolutely lush, your mind runs away with you, and you can't stop thinking about how lovely they are.

Then you talk to them again, realise what seemed cute & mysterious was just a sandwich short of a picnic, and reality kicks in ;)

I had a holiday fling with an absolutely amazing Californian girl a few years back. My God, she was amazing.
However, it was a holiday thing and no doubt she wouldn't have given me a second look anywhere else. But fun whilst it lasted. And having a tall, blond, size 8, American bird on your arm does a lot for your ego.

Indeed. I made sure I utilised my time with her to the max :cool:
 
"I'd like to meet you, that would be nice" often means "No I don't want to meet you, and I'm not going to talk to you anymore."

I think I should hide behind my computer too, that'll teach them!
 
I've been drinking, so I love my American again. People are telling me not to text her, but I hate playing games, if I like someone I just want to tell them. I think I might leaveit tonight and send her a "Hope yuou had a good night. blah blahb lah" text tomorrow.

What shall id od?

send her a picture of your dong, chicks love that
 
Well I've had the last two clear off :/ The usual disappearing trick. Taking a break from this as I'm getting fed up of the same pattern repeating each time. I will probably be back in a few weeks when not so miffed.
