    Yes. Until you.meet someone take everything they say with a huge pinch of salt. I also found online dating to be very looks focused. Do you have accurate current pictures up?

    I remember your previous posts. I hope you've had counselling since. Thinking about it, I'm not sure online dating is a good idea for you at the moment.

    Talking on the phone before meeting means nothing OP. Sorry but you seem quite naive about online dating. And tbh long calls before you.meet someone is a bad idea. It can build up a fantasy in your head that's not based on reality.

    I've had great dates where we got on really well but I didnt fancy them and didint see them again. It happens a lot with online dating, on both sides.

    The guys you met and you didn't want to see again probably wondered the same thing. Sometimes when people meet the spark isn't there. Nobody's fault.

    Of course it's disappointing but take the positives. You have guys that want to date you and find you entertaining. Because it doesn't work with one isn't the end of the world. It's a kick in the teeth. But the next one could be better. Hope you feel better.

    I would try and meet as soon as possible and then you can spend hours on the phone after you see if ye have any interest in each other.
