Guys (and girls) can you not look up previous conversation or message history on Pof.com? I just noticed I couldn't look back and also, after you get a few messages, older messages just get deleted from your inbox before you get to respond to them or anything? Am I just doing things wrong?

You can check your message history (ie who you have been in contact with) under your inbox. I have deleted mails so there has never been an issue of them being deleted for me.

After a long day in work came home checked my messages on Pof, two stood out for very different reasons. The first one was a very witty message telling me about himself, has a good profile looks cute. Well the second message was 5 words long 'do you like fukcing hard' : o!!!!! Seriously WTF is up with some people.

Obviously I got back to the second message without a second thought....what a catch!

Chin up. It's hard alright. Been on all these sites seriously for about 2 years and maybe 6 months too nervous to take it seriously and haven't met anyone from it.

I have to concur with your interpretation of the situation. Many congratulations & long may it last

Do you have a photo up? Have you filled in your profile? Have you made contact with anyone?

Surely everybody wants sex... The gentleman in question is simply advertising that he's game. Unless you think he's a rapist then I seriously doubt anything unwanted will happen.

That_Guy · 15-04-2012 9:00am

Is there anyway of disabling these bloody event invites I'm constantly getting. I don't want to go on your poxy fookin' picnic.

Hoping for a message from an attractive young woman, gets invited to a single's picnic from a dude.

Haha christ I hope not!

In any case, his texts have gotten a bit too cheeky for me so I'm going to pass on a date tonight.

Wait, he turned down the opportunity to see the advanced screening of the Avengers? Something wrong with that chap alright.

Whats connecting singles like in yer experience?

As an early-mid 20something I've found it a bit rubbish. I only ever get mail from women old enough to be my granny or creepy old men from the States.
There are hardly any girls in my age bracket/locality.

Eh he turned down the chance to see the avengers?! Defo something wrong with that guy! I can be your date, I'm really really nice!!

Galvasean · 15-04-2012 12:31pm

People turning down free tickets to the Avengers and i couldnt get one

JennyBurke101 · 15-04-2012 12:44pm

Haha the screening was actually last night!!!! IT.WAS.AMAZING.

I hope he was kicking himself ....I didnt make it clear in the message above ...but the text that wasnt meant for me ....well it pretty much looked like a text for a girl he was about to meet up with ...telling her she better not take ages on her hair ....

Thank God he slipped up BEFORE the screening!!!!!! Still havent heard from him but I am on to much of an Avengers high to really care lol

Armaghmagic · 15-04-2012 12:44pm

I agree, I am a guy in my mid 20's and if any ladies have free tickets to stuff, I am always available and won't let you down!!

TrustedApple · 15-04-2012 1:00pm

i don't no what to think of PoF really

Was chating to a girl she said lets met up for coffee today i was like ok. Then she txt me back and said got college work to be doing but i will try and met up with you today and she said give me a txt back sunday mooring. Then TxT her bak this mooring no reply so o well move on again to point getting your head held up by it. Back to the drawing board for me

I found lately there is a lot of odd profiles in my age group coming up eG you no there fair from real so got to LoL at that site some times

I think i will be forever alone

Galvasean · 15-04-2012 1:06pm

Ever get the impression you're driving the entire conversation? A girl mailed me this morning and we've had a few back n' forth mails, but I cant seem to get more than a few words per reply. It's very hard to gauge interest when they don't ask any questions and don't seem willing to talk about anything you bring up ay any great length.

I can't stand when the "conversation" is akin to pulling teeth.

It's a weird one. We're still talking, but despite many mails, there hasn't been a whole lot pf progress/conversation going on.
So I'm thinking:

Mails me first - interested?
Always replies promptly - interested?
Replies are always very brief - uninterested?
Appears to have not read my profile (ie: not showing up in the 'viewed me' list and never referencing anything in my profile) - uninterested?

I'm thinking she was just browsing the 'meet me' section and decided to pop me a mail (out of boredom perhaps?).

I don't get that, if I was to message someone, I'd always check out their profile first

I have had a few of them. I am a chatter and tend towards the longer replys and it makes me think "why am I bothering?"

Pembily · 15-04-2012 2:12pm

It really is a feast or famine. No messages on POF for ages and then bam 5 in one day. One guy messaged me and didn't make one reference to my profile :rolleyes:

LoTwan · 15-04-2012 2:22pm

Now being served in a living room (probably not) near you. Pity party luncheon for one. Date #3 was short & sweet. The guy may have been tall & cute but he has too many demons & there won't be a date #4. Back to the pool for me.

I was in a relationship for 3 and a half years which was only ended last month (by text message, disgustingly) and I've been textin a really nice girl for the last 3 weeks that I met on pof. She really seems so nice but I'm not sure whether i should be gettin into somethin else so soon after the relationship. No harm in meeting up with her I guess, she's unbelievably chatty and we've loads in common so I shouldn't complain

I know how it feels about the whole breaking up via text mate. Sucks. No harm in meeting her as you say. Just see how you get on and take it from there.

G'luck lad.
