P.S. I'm jealous.

Chin up, he probably has a bit of a point. Chances of him being able to talk to you on a Friday night are slim.

it changes as time goes on, similar to the random image thread in that the images coming through will be a certain theme, but it'll suddenly change a bit. every one posts advice, posts their profiles up for review etc.
I got one last night, I think it's the only one I've received.
I don't know where she's seen it but it sounds like she has.
My sig has never been more relevant.
Worst date ever! Miss all the fun here, drive to Dunstable instead for a girl that looked ok on the net could hold an ok text conversation and wanted me to come over for a Friday night film. Sound ok?
Manage to speed past a speed camera that I probably set off (fog could have saved me) and worse still she turned out to be the single dullest woman I've had to spend time with. Not for a lack of trying either she had lots to say but god none of it was interesting
Cap it off her photos are all from creative angles (or from years ago) as she's really not looking like she's taken much care of her self...
Massive disappointment only really improved by a good cd in the car and a trip through the worlds biggest puddle.
On the plus she made overly friendly Canadian girl look like a winner! Need to get back on the London front...

You don't even know the full story and yet you're calling me mental?It's nonsense to suggest meeting on the next available date, because Friday night might be bad for a date, if it's packed everywhere? Yeah, you're mental!
It sounds like an entirely reasonable request/suggestion.
1st March - we agreed to meet on 5th and swapped numbers. He then stopped messaging.
3rd March - I text him to see how he's doing and to see if we're still good to meet on 5th and he said yes.
4th March - he texted to say he will be busy with work and wants to meet on 6th instead. I said I can only do 8th and he said 8th is good, but then I replied and said Friday will be packed though and also asked if he gets to finish early on Fridays but no reply.
8th March - not heard anything back from him so texted to ask how he was and whether he was still ok to meet later. He then replied with "Good thanks, was thinking of asking you if you wanted to do it on Monday 18th, there will be no point if its packed and we can't hear each other! What do you think? x"
So... He didn't bother to reply to my text about it being packed on a Friday night, so I assume he's ok with that? Then he decides he wants to reschedule at the last minute. If I'd known earlier then I could've found better things to do with my time
Don't know why I'm explaining myself anyway..

Honestly a man sending a "x" at the end of a message is more than enough reason to bin him.

I believe he's having a man period, that or he's one of those indecisive idiots, either way as far as I know he wants you to chase him by being all weird.

Lol thanks, it's a learning/comedy experience.
Going to try and line up a date with a girl who doesn't like eggs and is doing a masters in forensic science. Might as well aim for the hot crazies instead of the dull who are trying to be nice.
Reading some of these is exactly why I have completely given up with dating lol. 10 years was enough bs for me thanks !
@MisChief - I say go with your gut. If you think he's messing you about on purpose then stop chasing. A few years ago I had a gut feeling someone was messing me about but my boss and a few other male friends were saying "no he's probably just busy etc etc" and it turns out I was right.
(I really should listen to my gut a lot more but when Im in an actual relationship it's sometimes very hard to ignore the emotions and do what i know is best in the long run )

Very true, if you have the slightest feeling someone is messing you around then don't waste your time. Especially as you get older and wiser and realise life is too short to give someone multiple chances if its going no where.

How can anyone say that without actually speaking. He might be a complete dufus about arranging dates but otherwise ok. At least a 5 minute conversation before saying nope I aint interested? If it dont feel right then obviously cant force it but I missed the part where you knew one way or the other
that sounds very nervous/awkward
This lawyer chick doesn't seem to be getting the message. Text me every single day since I sent her the 'Dear John' message. Been texting me light-hearted messages and I've been replying out of politeness but I've had 3 in a row today without me replying back once
Anyway, good date last night with the Swedish ex. Having a feeling things aren't quite over between us.
