Mookle - another opinion on the social anxiety thing from the other side!
The girl I've just moved in with (yaaaay!) is very social, she's at every family party, sporting event, seeing her friends and I'm not that inclined, I much prefer my own company or with my family and friends. It's not that I'm socially awkward, I just get bored very quickly and usually find I have nothing in common with new people (despite me liking all the usual stuff). Me and her family and friends get along fine as long as I don't see them all the time, usually because I have something new to say. For family events, we have an agreement where I'll go to roughly one in three, which she finds acceptable. I do sound a lot like this guy, I don't enjoy meeting new people at all and say the wrong thing, but usually the girlfriend's friends and family just laugh and know what an idiot I am and it's all forgotten!
I'm just trying to say really that people who are opposites in terms of socialising and meeting new people can work, she will go to anything to do with my family and friends, however understands why I don't want to. And we're happily together and doing amazingly well from the initial okcupid meeting months and months ago!
I know this doesn't sound too coherent, so apologies, but don't give up on them just yet!
Exposing posters who are actually women pretending to be men. Present company exempt but they've already posted in 2 different guises on this thread.
There, I said it! But I can sleep safely tonight as I am who I am (thanks Gloria Gaynor). A fat arsed female wine drinker who's unlucky in love. But I love meself enough to not pretend to be anything else. Well, until I peruse me undie drawer in advance of a date

Of course the really interesting thing about this, is that the generally accepted trope is that of men pretending to be women.
It may be a fat arse but I'm led to believe its perfectly formed ;-)
Right have a 2 dates lined up for this weekend one Saturday and one on Sunday (Is this bad by the way ? )
I was tempted to try and find a way to ask then of thier abilities to stay conscious at crucial moments but haven't found a way to slip it into the conversation
Maybe I should ask what was your worst ever date then I can tell them mine and hopefully get a lead on it that way

Whatcha reckon??
Don't be silly. They will already know. They will have read it here first. :D
Ha ha, I'm not QUITE as macho as the guys in that vid, although give me a matching leather trouser and cap combi, and a handlebar moustache and I reckon I could give them a run for their money..
Then all I'll need is for Bermondseybrick to be the cowboy, Justabloke the construction worker and together the ladies will be screaming at us like teenage girls at a Justin Bieber concert! :cool:

Just tell me where and when! I have my own hardhat!
MissPinotGrigio, there was a beefy guy with wonky teeth on tonight, you might have liked him.
Ergh, I'm not sure about beefy. And wonky. I have this thing called "paedophile teeth". You know, when you see a paedo in the news, and he's got snaggled teeth. That's never good
I just like guys with good, OK, but less than perfect teeth. As opposed to the "Hi, I'm Joey Essex/Troy McClure/Tom Cruise" look. I just don't trust a guy with absolute perfect white teeth.

I feel I've missed something important in this thread.
BTW, some of us really appreciate a fat arse!
MissPG, the fellas in Yorkshire are missing a real trick in letting you slip through their fingers. Move to Brum, we know how to appreciate a quality bird!
cant help feeling the lot of you should open up your own on line dating business that does a catfish style investigation of people before they can join

Trust me, I've done some "investigation" and er, "vetting" of friends' potential dates and found some seriously scary shiz! I have a PHD in what Nev & Max do for a living! And no, I'm not a stalker, I prefer to call it "boyfriend research"

Cheers, TDC, but it's not fat as in Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian or a gloriously bootylicious Jamacian woman. It's fat as in "your dad" or Eric Cartman

I've been waiting for the perfect time to break out my cowboy hat and chaps

I'm no longer on any dating sites but when I was I would copy any suspicious looking pics into google images. One man I briefly chatted to had stolen pics from another mans facebook page who had his pics open for all to see and pinch as well as another site the poor innocent had used to keep track of his training.
My friend has recently got back into internet dating after becoming single and sent me a pic of a man she'd been chatting to for a week or so. She asked me what I thought of him. She said she thought she really liked him and he seemed lovely. Of course I googled him, this was the results
It was the man who is top right. He'd not asked her for money but I'm sure it would only have been a matter of time, altho she doesn't have two pennies to rub together so she wouldn't have given him any.
It's so scary out there kids!
I really really want to see you guys doing Village People now, please make it happen!

Oh and it's not me people, I am most definitely a man. Honest!
Lord above, I haven't used that phrase in a good 10 years AOTB! Not that I've had no reason to.
I have no doubt that you are anything less than this......

Ok ok, enough with the begging already, you can be the red indian, er I mean native american in the band with JAB, BB and myself.
We just need one more volunteer to be the cop and the world is ours for the taking.
Not at all! Got to keep those options open.
Cheers, TDC, but it's not fat as in Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian or a gloriously bootylicious Jamacian woman. It's fat as in "your dad" or Eric Cartman
Maybe Darcy can be the cop.
Oh, hang on.....
Ah HA!

I don't mind doing a village people but I'll draw the the line at a "Full Monty"
This is a good website for exposing liars online, there are some astonishing stories on there. I'd like to think I'm not so gullible.
Oh, and the eharmony boyz Village People tribute act - can I book you for my work's summer party?:D
