as much as someone who's intimate with a different woman every week??

Most men aren't though when they're single..... and half of those that say they are...are lying.

A few guys can do this, one possibly two of my best friends are like this (I'm loathe to include one of them because there are to many memories of him pissed/ketamined/coked out of his eyeballs bringing back fat chavs to the flat) and can charm women they meet on the street into bed with them. I didn't do too badly at uni by half but there's a reason why most men settle down, most women are too good for them. That or I hung out with too many morally bankrupt arseholes and so believe this to be the case, which might be true.

And I'm cautiously optimistic about the latest: she gets me, I get her, we click... Maybe she's a sociopath too!

Likes Zumba, cats, and doing a parachute jump once whilst on a gap year in Australia 14 years ago but still harp on about it to anyone that'll listen cos it makes me sound edgy and adventurous..

Photos of cats in profile = run, run away and keep running until you can't run any longer. Then run some more.

"I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I'm out of control, and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."

That's the one Mister P... I once ended up in the house of a young lady who had that stenciled on the bathroom wall. Presumably so she could memorise it while she crimped one off...

(I ran... As soon as I'd sealed the deal)

Do women quote Twain other than when mocking golfers?

Something to do with not lying.
Also a pic of a gun, which appealed to me.
I'm in trouble aren't I?

Oh boy... Big trouble!!

I like the profiles that start with something along the lines of:

**WARNING DO NOT MESSAGE ME IF YOU ARE A LYING CHEATING SCUMBAG THAT WILL SHAG MY SISTA OR ME M8Ss"**

I would like to meet someone who knows how to treat a lady.

translation: I have a shopping addiction and have maxed out my own credit so now need someone who can sub all my meals, alcohol and clothing requirements.

"everybody quotes Twain, all the time"

*Huckleberry Finn, 1840

(and: When you fish for love, bait with your heart, not your brain) - apparently, from some internet bollocks google search

A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way

There you go both bases covered Twain and cats

Please include some pun on you casting your spell on her - make it sound like a euphemism

Likes bungee jumping, the smell of rain and chocolate logs

I still laugh over how old the pics a few females I know posted up on their profiles. That and instagraming the others to death.

I would put an unflattering one up. At least then I wouldn't stress over it.

Not read the whole thread, but.......

I've been in pof for a while, got really disillusioned with it, yes met some lovely people, but also met some who lied/weren't right for me.

I got sick of looking at women who all looked the same when searching the site, hair the same, same stupid flippin scouse/hd brows that looked like someone had slapped tar across their face, same pout, same stance (stood side on, hand not on hip but on rib cage just under the side of their boob, head tilted back, oh and knee slightly bent). If you are on pof just look at how many do this!

That Marilyn Monroe quote is on every other profile, so is "DVD, takeaway, bottle of wine"

There are so many other things I can rant about but that'll do for now.........

Would I recommend the site? Yes, yes I would. Current girl I'm dating is lovely, In fact she's pretty spot (actually just thought she may see this!) on, she's well in to cycling/mountain biking. Washes her bikes (yes 'bikes') in the shower, has tyres and bike bits all around her place. She beats my ass up every climb and then takes the pee out of me when I eventually get to the top. Alas she's a teacher but I'll let that slide....I think she's a keeper 🙂

Good luck Houns! I deliberately avoid other cyclists - having been married, I see cycling for what it really is: a refuge; a chance to be blokey, sweary and obnoxious with a load of obnoxious sweary blokes!

Evening pootles to country pubs is fine, but no more than that!

Further to your POF observations, I concur wholeheartedly, but you failed to mention the "makeover" photos. There must be a studio in Manchester that has a huge round window thing as half the women in the NW have a soft-focus photo of them done up like a dog's dinner, draped in this flipping great big polo!

If you can't look like that 90% of the time, you have no right posting it on a dating site...

Ah yes. The polo shot and the holding the wall up shot (two hand against the wall and side of face resting on back of the hands)

Festival photos and cuddling a tiger (I'm actually jealous of this one as I'd like to do that) are frequent too

Houns. "DVD, takeaway, bottle of wine"

This is a subtle (maybe some of them don't even know it consciously) - 'in other words you are getting sex with me'.

Saying this- I know a girl who loves doing this. Once back from work she wont leave the house. Its curl up, tv on. Fri or Sat night? Curl up, DVD on and takeaway.

What an existence.

tongue out - do they still do that to show their cheeky side?

I dont see cycling as a refuge from women but as an escape to fun whatever the genders of those I cycle with.

Oh of course, but also states "my life is so boring that the only thing interesting about me is that I like doing what most of the population do on a quiet night"

For anyone giving pof a go then stick with it, it does seem the norm for people (of both sexes) just to stop sending emails without reason or warning. Just means they've found someone they prefer over you but haven't got the decency to tell you

Regarding the refuge, we don't live near each other so plenty of time to ride in own, and I expect it's the same for her so she can go ride with her friends and I can bugger off out with mine )

I actually dated this woman... I didn't realise she was an offender til I found these pics on her Facebook!

(photos removed, even though they were quite well disguised!)

They do if they have a pierced tongue! I went through a phase of actively seeking the tongue piercers... They have some benefits...

Festival photos are a must for me. I love going to festivals (got two lined up for 2014 already) and couldn't date someone who wasn't into them.

If you want false advertising just look up doity dating sites. EVERY girl likes giving rimming.

Really?

Funnily enough these websites don't tell you that alot of the profiles on there are false/not the person and......if you reg you get contacted by 'other members' who are actually employee's of the website to get you to subscribe.

I know this as its one of their common scams. Far far more blokes on these sites than females.

I tend to find the ones with all the festival pics (and Ibiza) aren't really true life-long festival goers or even music lovers. Most of them are what I call bucket-list tickers.

This year it's Glasto and Pacha, next year it's swimming with dolphins and Machu Picchu.
