Come to think of it, I'm not even a big fan of them. :pac: I'll eat them but they wouldn't be my chocolate bar of choice. I'm all about the Moro bars.

Well looks like im on the hunt again

The guy i was seeing for last 6 weeks has lost interest but took it for me to ask him what was going on as he couldnt seem to able to tell me himself.

Got the whole i have no time, busy with work crap, but yet hes in his friends practically every eve of the week:rolleyes:

Just wish people could be honest and just say they arent interested in you that way anymore, i had bull sh** excuses and lies.

Honestly think i need to give OD a break for a while as ive had no luck really on it for the last year or more.

Firstly, sorry to hear about that......bad enough things not working out without being messed about in the process!

I haven't had much luck myself but stick at it and something will turn up, come out on Friday.......we can bitch about our flawed dates!

Thanks guys, just losing faith at this stage.

I hate the lies, wish they could be honest. If hes so busy then why is he bothering to be online looking for people, does he think im a fool believing those stupid excuses?
Armagh, i cant come out fri as im away to scotland, but thanks anyway

I think a lot of guys (and probably gals too) just can't let go of the freedom associated with being able to play the field, but they want to have a bit of a girlfriend along with all the benefits associated with that. They want to have their cake and eat it.

Do you know Galva, thats exactly how it felt to be honest, but i just wish they wouldnt make eejits out of us giving us silly excuses when i know its not true.
I was told im a great girl:rolleyes: how patronising does that sound, eugh

It's not worthed losing time wondering why an asshole is an asshole, bad luck you crossed his way, at least you knew before it was too late.

I think there are people who want that but I know personally I do really want to meet someone in the hope a relationship can develop

I don't mean everybody that ends a potential relationship after a few weeks is like that. However, the ones that are seeing someone for 6 weeks but still cruise the online dating sites don't strike me as giving it their full effort. A relationship cannot develope properly if one of the two is constantly on the lookout for someone else. That's what I was getting at.

Hey. Long time lurker, first time poster on here. Have been using POF a while myself and have just not had much luck with it!! I take the time to read through profiles, and compose messages of acceptable length and grammar (lots of girls, fairly enough, say won't reply to txt spk, short messages etc.) but I might as well be playing the lotto than hoping to get a reply. Anyone have any advice, as it's kind of disheartening?
