I've not posted for a while, but in need of a bit of advice :/ Went on a date on Friday with an Italian guy and he was sooo nice and was trying really hard for us to have a great evening, but I just wasn't feeling it. He asked me if he were the first Italian guy I'd ever dated, which made it seem like we were actually together even though it was only our first date :eek:

He then said 'do you think you could date me?' and caught me off guard with his directness. I was thinking 'hold your horses - the point of the first meeting is to see how compatible you are, not to start a relationship right away!' I'm also the first girl he's met off the site.
I told him I have to meet people a few times before I can know.

It's now been a few days and the more I've thought about it, the more I realise I don't want to meet him again. He wrote to me last night asking if we could go for dinner this week, but I don't want to lead him on by agreeing to it, but I feel bad because I originally said I need to meet up with people a few times before I can know if it'll go anywhere.

Crap, I don't know how to let him down gently :confused:

Say "I'm not feeling it, sorry".

Then imagine this.

Then all will be well.
 
logged on a website(haven't been on for a couple of weeks)

check new members.. click on one chick.. she quickly(10mins) goes back to my profile clicks i want to meet you and leaves..

grr i kinda want to message her but i don't feel like wasting her/my time really.. i can't be arsed to reply even tho i read a message and i just close it and reply a few hours later or even days.. weeks..
 
So got a date at the weekend with a good looking girl, but so far my success rate for girls ACTUALLY looking like their profile pictures is silly, so I have no expectations. I have been on about 6 different dates 5 of which looked about 4 stone heavier than their profile pictures.

7th time lucky?
 
Nowt better than pulling a stranger off the web meeting up & leaving her like a plasterers radio.

So why don't you just delete your account?!

I'm close to deleting my account again..... All the coffee/dinner dates are making me fat and I'm no closer to finding someone.

POf should be renamed to plenty of fatties as I can never find a slim girl worth my time. I used to attract only bigger woman and I wouldn't even sleep with one never mind date one.

Call me shallow but that's how I roll.

Hmm fair enough. I think once you start messaging back you'll start to get interested/curious though. Sometimes I read messages and then not bother to reply until a few hours/days time because I just CBA... especially when people write essays :o

i would agree but i guess i just dont have time for dating/relationships now and i have better things to focus on thats why i cba to actually reply properly :/ a lot of times i just reply to say "yeah i've replied" doesn't mean the message has anything worth reading in it. :o
 
i just checked POF, nobody new has viewed me since last time i logged in...... :(

tbh, im going to take a break from activley looking for someone for a bit.

life is so scattered right now! i dont have the patience to sent out messages/speak to girls and have nothing in return!

just going to see what wanders out and comes in my direction! both online and in general

It's the guys that write the essays that are the ones that take a proper interest in your profile, rather than what you look like in your pics. Let me guess... they are the ones that you don't find attractive :p

Don't give up! At least you get fed and watered for free with all these dinner and coffee dates... You might just want to go for the salad option instead of the steak :p

No no, I do reply to the essays but not always immediately... Maybe when I have absolutely nothing to do and almost on the verge of getting bored :p

Oh no no noooo, I don't get fed and watered for free. I always get my purse out ready to pay for myself. If a guy offers to pay, then I will decline twice before finally accepting because at that point I will just look stubborn if I still refuse to let the guy pay :o
