    A girl messaged me "Hi how u"
    That doesn't usually warrent a response from me, I had a look at her profile anyways. My god but some people need a good shake sometimes!
    First off..txt spk..she's mid 20's, grow up.
    Second off, (now bear in mind it was written in txt spk but this is pretty much what I could make out)..she wants someone to be with her all the time and when he is not with her, to be emailing and texting her, and wait for it...thinking about her when she's not with him.
    I mean for effs sake, Needy MacNeedyson! "G'wan out of that" says I..to aul Mr Brennan..(rant)

    God, this shyness thing, I really need to learn it! I really don't know how to be shy ... I have no shame! If I fancy a guy, he knows it! :o

    Ah no, you're just right, I think I'm just afraid of rejection or being laughed at, even if it's plainly obvious they like me too! I guess my body language would give off signals though.. Sometimes after they hold my hand or kiss me I tell them... :D

    What? :confused:
    I sometimes do just mean they are cute, nothing more! I meant if I'm with someone in person, not over messages!

    Date moved to today. In a few hours to be exact. I don't really fancy the dude. He's funny and cool though so I thought, why not? Still, I am so effing nervous. :eek:

    I find it quite ironic that I'm writing a thesis based around love...

    The fact that I'm a bit older makes it a bigger quagmire than for you youngsters.. :p

    Only your first? Dispite only seeking women I get about one e-mail a month or so from guys looking for "straight" guys because its more fun which is pretty weird when you think about it.

    Aaaannd cue a load of guys staring disappointingly at their screens.

    I see OKCupid has changed their site a lot. Apparently I get 13 views a week. Not bad, I guess, considering I barely go on there now.

    Just got back from the date. He was exactly what I expected. Funny and cool and I still don't fancy him. :-( Now I don't know what to do. He was so nice and when he asked me if I wanted to go out again, I said yes. :o He was so nice- I couldn't say no. Now I feel like a ****ty person.

    Imo I wouldn't go out with him again, it's not fair to string him along I think. Not your fault if you don't fancy him though!

    I hate being asked that at the end of dates though, I mean you sort of have to say yes then don't you?
    (Or at least if you're cowardly like me you do... :rolleyes: )

    Puts you on the spot a bit. Would ask in a text later / the next day.

    Definitely! would be unfair to ask them on the spot at the end of the date imo.
