And now I shall regale you with today's crop of dating losers, whining on the discussion boards.

He Lied to Me
Why does it take so long for him to reply my email?
I want to contact him.
He works too much...
should i stay or go
is he just not that in to me?
Love
Need to Breakup but don't want to hurt him


Okay, Okay, I'll stop.

Rose, is there a poem in there?


And you all thought this place was dull.

I have absolutely no intention of getting over myself.

Silly idea.

"All you fat chicks, eat your heart out" - quote from you, Janey...

Not what I'd call the simplest form of weight loss!

Of one that loved not wisely but too well;"

Unseemly words from nobility, your etc.ness.

Anybody want rhubarb pie? I've probably completely missed the rhubarb crop here, but I'll have a look when next I shop. Which won't be until I unstuff the freezer of all the stuff I made last time I shopped.

Send 'em on, Rose!

If a man wants me to cook for him then he needs a cast iron stomach and under developed, or preferably non existent, taste buds.


I did the psych profile thingy in July of last year. When I went back on the site in the Novemeber I had nearly 200 matches ;-)

show off ! Cat ;) lol

Janey, I am having trouble attaching to an email, I'll try and work out a way of sending later.

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 14 Jul 2010 22:26

Right.

7 matches first time out, 200 matches sitting in the waiting room.

And you all come to me for dating advice.

Now what does that say about you all?

JaneyCanuck Report 14 Jul 2010 22:30

Oh, suzian, I almost missed your distasteful comment. Blech. And you expect a guy to kiss a girl with a mouth like that?

No wonder you can't get a date. Nobody dates a smart you know what.

I believe this calls for some sort of reminder about appropriate humour. Ladies do not tell vulgar jokes. That is the job of the menz. However, if one of them tells one of them in front of one of you, you must excuse yourself gracefully and call a taxi.

Leaving him to pick up the tab, but of course.

My biggest problem with this site is the amount of "men" that I contacted that didn't even have the courtesy of say not interested simply by closing the match.

Doesn't really matter now, my membership runs out on the weekend. I'm not renewing.

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 14 Jul 2010 22:33

Of course, the question is -- had any of the 200 (and will any of Rose's 7) actually *communicated* with you?

Hah. I may only have been matched with 28, but I haven't been rejected by 200. Hah.

I did get one message. There used to be multiple choices for why someone was "closing" a match. This one was "no picture". So I altered my profile (which was surely surly enough already) to warn anyone tempted to bother me with such noise that they should whine to the management about their matches, not to me.

Oooh Irene! A free communication weekend! I'm not sure how I'll contain myself!!! Are you gonna sign up???

Cãt -- you didn't pay now, did you? Of course not, or you wouldn't have waited months to check the matches. ;)

Well, I have to admit I haven't done anything with my matches. They just sit there.

Oh, but you mean men you contacted -- well yes, that's just pig-ignorant.

You need to come join me on the discussion board. You can whine about the rude men who don't answer messages, and be meat for the jackals. Get over your self!!

Rambling Report 14 Jul 2010 22:38

In my case I am not paying to join so I'll never know lol...

maybe I am just too old to really be bothered to find a 'Mr Right' now that matches my criteria...maybe I have no confidence that any one of them would want me lol...

or maybe the 'one' has made all others pale into insignificance !

ChAoTicintheNewYear Report 14 Jul 2010 22:40

Lol Janey

They didn't communicate with me, bit difficult when I never went on the site, I didn't communicate with them either. The matches were dated from July until November when I actually joined (paid membership). I deleted most of them straight away. I have communicated with some, some have communicated with me but so far no luck. As I said previously my membership runs out at the weekend so we'll see.

JaneyCanuck Report 14 Jul 2010 22:46

Cãt and Rose -- stick around, there are the free communication weekends, I'd say every weekend from the number of commercials they run, but several a year anyhow, including this very weekend ... Rose ... !!

I have no idea how it works. They have this "guided communication" thing (all I can think of is the hoaxsters who pretend to be relaying messages from the severely autistic). Is there another way to do it too, without using their multiple-choice questions? The current favourite on the advice boards is "what was your parents' marriage like?" To which my answer might be: mind your business. Actually, I wouldn't mind it as a subject of conversation with someone I met, but as a first-contact question to a stranger??

Okay, enough of that place, drowning in banality there.

Do you frequent www.okcupid.com?

That one's fun. It has quizzies to keep you busy for a year. And also the odd interesting person.

JaneyCanuck Report 14 Jul 2010 22:47

Oh, and OKCupid is free. Unless you want to upload photos ........













....... which, of course, fat chicks don't.


Hahahaha!
