    Why does hardly anyone ever answer their own OP?

    I want to know because I am going to be going on the prowl soon and just wondering what are my options. I didn't want to write it because I thought it'd be a bit embarassing!!

    On the prowl? Can you add "in a bush with a balaclava on" to the poll then?

    I first saw my OH when I was looking at who had viewed my profile on Plenty Of Fish. I clicked on him because he looked like the ex of a friend of mine (it wasn't him) but didn't send a message.

    Later that night I was out in a club and saw him there but I was too shy to say hello. The next day he messaged me on POF asking for a date. We met up later that week and are now engaged and have a beautiful daughter.

    Not sure I believe in fate but it was a bit of a coincidence.

    New Year's Eve at the pub - he tipsy, me just finished work and joined my usual crowd. He was at the next table. Almost 40 years later we are here to tell the tale!

    In a pub. We went back to the pub on our 30th anniversary and it still looks much the same. It hadn't really changed much at all but it was really quiet. There always used to be folk singers up the stairs but now they don't even do live music. It was good to reminisce though.:)

    At an event. We were having a drink in a pub, and this lad asked me out. I found him really attractive but the problem was the 'date' was 'Come and see my Morgan and we can go for a spin." And I assumed a Morgan was a motorbike. I was scared of going on a motorbike, so I literally started chatting up the randomer on the other side of me, to get him to ask me out, so I wouldn't have to go out with the first one. I'd noticed him earlier and thought he has a nice smile. I had a boyfriend at home as well. Bad girl.
