I recently signed up for some online dating (Stop sniggering at the back!) and it's really beginning to drive me up the wall!
Why do people write
Argh!
If anyone knows of a biological lady with a pulse around Manchester into mountain biking, climbing and kinky sex, then please let me know!
where's Hora?
There's an awful lot of "I'm 5'11" and my ideal man must be taller than me when I'm wearing 9" heals..."
Try putting "must be maximum size 10 with double d baps" and see how long it is before you get hate mail!
they write all that so you can avoid them, it's a good job they do otherwise it'd be a right pain
And you haven't over-elaborated on your resumé?
Heh...I tried to focus on the normal ones who didn't come out with the usual ****.
And look where I am now!
What do you put on your description?
Beware of anyone who describes themselves as 'medium build'. They usually mean medium for a baby elephant.
"I'm 5'11" and my ideal man must be taller than me when I'm wearing 9"
I ask those how they feel about a man in cuban heels?
What do you put on your description?
I've been completly honest
(crap) mountain biker
(crap) climber
6ft 2, carrying a few extra pounds
Face for radio
Nerd
Well read (All the Mr Men books and most of the "Spot the dog" series)
If anyone knows of a biological lady with a pulse
Fussy bugger 
Its exactly the same for us women using those sites you know! I'm waiting for current subscription to run out before giving up. And there's barely any men on there that are into mountain biking!
er......surely im not the only one thinking we've found a match here??
get it together you two!!!

Last time I tried online dating, I rapidly found that when girls said they were "into MTBing" it usually meant that they had once owned a bike shaped object from Halfords when they were at uni...
(email in profile if you want it, lexie... 
)
Am I unusual in that I don't want to meet a lady who rides mountain bikes?
My Tuesday night rides followed by a couple of pints in the pub wouldn't be quite the same if I had another half in tow.
I'd prefer to meet a nicely toned gym bunny whose hobbies include intimate waxing (herself) and making herself look and smell beautiful for when I get back from the afore-mentioned pub.

rushes out to buy a hat
Amen Shibboleth!
i described myself as a geek superhero and posted a picture of me on top of a mountain looking rugged and confused. Ladies loved that. Yeah everyone lies, be as vague as possible and meet everyone for dates. Chubby ladies are more fun than self conscious skinny lasses
I've been told not to look for someone and I might meet someone. Still waiting, maybe should spend more time in supermarket aisles.
I said that I had a phobia of really large foreheads and if you can't cover it with one hand, don't bother messaging me.
I get a constant stream of messages from surprisingly attractive young ladies telling me that they've tried, and can indeed cover their forehead with one hand.
I think I just get a perverse pleasure from the thought that women up and down the land are sitting in front of their PCs testing the size of their forehead!

You think you got it bad. Try the gay route. Many moons ago I put an ad in 'Gay Times' (must be 1990 or thereabouts). Me == naive. I put in 'into mountain biking, snowboarding'. The number of photos of (hideously ugly ancient blubbery) men wearing lycra and leering at the camera in obscene poses made my stomach churn.
My mate Pauline at work is on the straight dating websites. She's usually got a new man on her arm each weekend. Usually she finds out they are married and are just looking for a jump though...

I'm alright thanks...

Must be like old times on here
My problem is getting the dates in the first place - I suspect that being separated and having 3 kids is some kind of dating kryptonite (although it could of course be down to my hideous photos and boring profile)
Where's (w)Hora?
An attractive, slender natural blonde girl who used to work with me told me about the adult dating sites that she used to go on to meet likeminded people (shes bi-sexual) and likes having sex with married couples.
Kinda opens your eyes abit to the real adult world out there doesn't it?
Getting married in a couple of weeks hora, email in profile
I wondered why you'd not made many recent rides Hora.
AdamW I'll bet not quite as needy as some of the sites I've looked at. LOL
Something quite desperate about the gay online dating scene.
Try the gay route.
Thus starts Yeti's newest adventure in online dating...
Also watch out for the ones who put 'Looks not important'. What they mean is looks aren't important as long as you resemble Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt.
I got fed up too, so was 'ruthlessly' honest with who I was looking for (or who I wasn't looking for). I got more replies telling me I'd get nowhere with that attitude than I had with my normal profile.
However, someone appreciated my honesty and she moves in after xmas. Happy Ending!
Honestly there are loads of kosher 'dating' websites linking like-minded individuals. Its not all 'looking for great guy who is Mr Darcy with GSOH'.
There are alot of bored married people out there just looking for no-strings action.
I'd love to go on them but I could easily see it as being waaaaaaaay-too addictive and I could see myself trying to beat my own pull-rates everyweek along with looking to get my hands on the latest 'frame' regularly

Fixed that for you - I stand to be corrected, but I expect the sites you are referring to are something of a sausage fest
The sheer amount of inane TXT SPK just kills me.

You are assuming all ladies are monogamous? They are just discreet compared to us men.
Under the skin you'll be surprised to learn that the fairer sex can be dirtier than any man.

Those'll be the ones where pork isn't allowed
That's not what I'm saying at all hora
I'm just saying that men are far more likely to resort to a website to try and meet women for casual sex
A woman who wants an affair will not have too much trouble finding someone the old fashioned way
I'm happy to be corrected - but by someone who has actually used these sites, rather than just fantasised about using them
