Have we done POF site yet!?

Not sure really what to say about Tinder as never used it, even if I am young, I want something meaningful like Jambourgie mentioned after a fun loving first meet.
This approach seems to send the opposite sex in the other direction. Even though it’s not a dealbreaker, it sure is nice if not smart move in some cases.

Tbh I’m easy go with the flow kinda man but blimey they’re a loada dreamers or time wasters on these dating sites.

Yeah, been on that site.

There is no "good" dating sites.**

That's what makes me laugh about Elite Singles.

Trying to make it sound like they can guarantee you BMW owning peeps that won't mess you around as they are too busy traveling the world and haven't got time for sordid affairs.lol

All sites/apps have the same inherent weakness. People.

Just got a like from a nice looking lady (obviously myopic) but....

36 miles away.

Deal breaker. They got any idea of the price of petrol these days!?

Another like:

I am not looking for a relationship,i am looking to have discreet fun and getting spoilt
And everything that comes with that!

Pay dirt!

Trouble is, it's a 41 mile round trip to get the old lad a service plus the cost of double bagging the little fella.

I'm torn. 🙁

No pun intended.

At least when I gave my mums friend a lift in my car she comented on how nice it was 😉

Would have been better if she wasn't twice my age and known to only date rich men...

The photofeeler thing is great... if you want to find out that you look smart and trustworthy but not at all attractive 😳 Im testing out pictures of me with various haircuts to try and work out what I should go for next 😆

It's a winner for me for spelling "discreet" correctly.

To be fair, most people looking for discreet fun are also looking for discrete fun.

Bloody hell, 15 years ago I'd drive the length and breadth of the country on a Friday night, on the sniff of an off chance of a promise!

We'll, just paid $9** on that picture site to find out vote ugly I am.

Uploaded 2 pics, one in fancy dress, the other with my biking glasses on that look like "welders goggles" I've been told.

They are my most flattering pics.... 😯

** You can upload for free but it can take weeks to find out how ugly you are apparently.

I need to know now damnit!

If you just vote on other pictures you get "karma" points and people vote on your pictures I had 10 votes or so in 24hrs doing that.

but if you wanna be Mr big spender paying extra for people to rate you and having a premium tinder account then go for it 😉 ladies probably like it

Damn it wiggles. I read it takes weeks, not a day or so.

That said, perhaps I should put up on tinder that I paid BIGLY on photofeeler.

I'll be fighting them off! 😀

I feel sorry for you on how much stuff you believe of dating sites if you fell for that sales pitch 😆

I signed up for a one a while ago that was free and then you start getting "messages" but you cant read them until you pay, I was getting 10 messages a day 8)... I know what I look like i`m not stupid

Well.....

It would seem the picture of me far away from the camera scores higher. 😆

I'm also not Trustworthy either! WTAF 😯

Why are women so picky...

We'll, the results are in boys and girls. From photo feel.

Suffice to say, if you wear glasses in a close up pic you are deemed "smart".

The rest I will leave to your imagination! 😀

I still haven't got anything higher than "somewhat attractive" with 4 different pictures including one from about 5 years (and stone...) ago 😆

I'm not saying i'd date either of you, but you at least seem half intelligent and interesting 🙂

I can't even imagine going back into the dating world.... You're brave (but ugly it seems) blokes 🙂

Thanks weeksy (give me a call if you change your mind 😉 )

Poopscoop- same here most relationships have started with "I'm not really looking for a relationship at the moment..." But I eventually wear them down 😆

But dating based on pictures makes even being able to start talking to most women a bit of a barrier...

Ha, told you!

That girl I stopped messaging a few days ago because she wasn't really making much effort to keep the conversation going just messaged me again today 😉

Fungus technique ftw

Mixed feelings. Wasn't much of a player BITD because I was a bit shy of making the move and getting rebuffed, despite having a 'really great personality' according to friends who happened to be female. The ability to know someone's available and also interested enough to meet up, once they got to know me and my 'great personality' I'd have been sorting them out as fast as you could throw them under me*

* not my phrase - ex-maintenance manager at my previous work; he had a 'traditional' approach to dating but I won't reveal his other advice at this stage or I'll get banned.

On the other hand I'm happily married and kids so no need to get on Tinder or PoF - do you think the wife would condone it just purely for the shits and giggles aspect? I feel like I'm missing out......

Hey why don't you ask her?

Then you can join us doing it for real once the divorce is happening 😆

either that or she'd also want to go on, and then I'm on a hiding to nothing

[i]That girl I stopped messaging a few days ago because she wasn't really making much effort to keep the conversation going[/i]

Oh man, I hate that!
Me: Question?
Her: blah
Me: oh nice.. question?
her: blah
Me: Cool.. question?
Her: Blah
Me: ...
Me*moves on* !

They are morons.
Purely out of curiosity, I switched the app on last night after not touching it for months. 3 matches in 3 mintues 😆

That was literally it... She gives decent answers and seems ok have a decent amount in common etc just incapable of doing anything other than answering my questions really. I have replied with another non question answer if she doesn't come up with something soon I give up

First one who did it to me (she [i]looked[/i] good, so I kept it going for a while), I ended up sending a rant, 'if this is how you think a conversation should be..' etc! Nothing lost really. If that's how they conduct an online chat, they could only be worse in reality. Chatting online is EASY!

Maybe ask to have a chat on the phone? That can be most revealing IME.

Isn't that one a month rather than minute though? Even if your not online they can still see you right?

If she keeps talking a bit longer I'll ask to meet up (not like that... Yet)
