    Cheating angle aside I can't imagine "Hi I'm utterly desperate for sex" would be a good approach.

    Introducing the new iPhone "We can't release the specs or pictures for obvious reasons but we need a lot of money right now and thought you might oblige"

    I'm in despair!:( Logged on to POF had 15 messages! Yay!! 12.. yes 12 of them are from lads in their 20's!! And 1 was from a 19 year old!!:eek:! Whats going on?... Most of them are fairly polite, attractive young lads who say they are not interested in girls their own age or the girls are not interested in them. Mind you, got one " How would you like a young handsome stud to ride the ar$e off you? I like your leather gear, I'd like to fcuk you wearing it!!":rolleyes:

    " I was soooo tempted to reply asking if he or I was going to be wearing my leather gear! :D

    Oh and by the way just to clarify. Its just a leather jacket in the photo and jeans that look like they might be leather but aren't!:) I wasn't in my bondage gear or anything! (I keep that for special occasions;))

    Ah go for it, it might be comedy gold. It's not like you are leading on a nice and genuine person only to cruelly let them down, you would be leading on a chancer so they get what they deserve!

    I am disappointed with your explanation, I though your profile pic was all leathered out.

    Definitely play along with him, it's fun. I've gotten so far as to agree to marry a scammer and move to America. He is currently 'contacting his aunt to tell her the good news' and has given me his mobile number. :D

    No one likes a dry sandwich.

    Got a 4star rating off a lady on OKC but no message. Debating if I should write a message or leave it up to her since she rated me.

    ^^ I actually found that first one very humorous.

    I concur

    First meeting is a coffee... Full stop. I'm not committing to meet someone for ours when chances are I will need to escape after 15 minutes.

    Wait 'til tomorrow. If she hasn't messaged you by then give her a shout. If you're interested of course.
    A lot of women seem to just ad you to their favourites in hope that you'll make the 'first' move. It's weird. It's like they want to be old fashioned by letting the man send the first message but are also being pro-active at the same time by guiding his hand.

    Never realised there was so much psychology behind this sort of thing. I'm such a n00b.

    It's like a game of chess, but with awful spelling and grammar.

    The mind games do get quite tedious. If everybody just dropped the bull and was upfront about their intentions chances are we could actually get somewhere.

    This confuses me. If you play mind games, and end up dating someone or whatever, they're hardly getting to know you if you're just playing mind games. :confused:

    They should rename it, or put a warning up. I put up a profile, no pic, bio, just the bare bones and I got 45 messages in 2 hours! Most offering NSA/FWB.

    That's it, I'm retiring the pink shorts. In the space of about half an hour this morning I got a guy wondering if I was up for a threesome with him and his bisexual mate, and the following:

    “Hi Stunning

    I don’t know if it’s something you’re into (seriously doubt it) but I’ll ask anyway. I’m in a relationship and have two kids who I adore. I’m in a s3xless relationship and it’s driving me demented. I’ve tried everything to get things back on track but to no avail. I’m not a bad-looking fella but can’t post photos for obvious reasons. I’m looking for someone discreet who has the same needs as myself and wants to hook up every now and again.

    Regards
    Dave”


    You left me out in the cold last night, could have brought me some tea, or sandwiches would have been nice too ;-)

    I recall I had a smooch account for a while. Got mailing a girl for a bit. When I got round to asking if she's like to meet up for a coffee she responded, "Oh i dont date guys from the internet". the mind, she boggles! :confused:

    That really grinds my gears, pointless being on there in the first place, a bit of confidence is all she was looking for
