Spot on.... I look forward to my invitation, I'm on "Hats4U" right now! ;-)
Well looks like I'm about to become a victim of the Bermondsey Brick dating scam.... bloke been all over me for the last few days, we were going to meet tonight, he WAd me from dawn until 11 last night, we had made loose arrangements to meet tonight, I WAd him this morning - nothing. WA'd him just now..... nothing again.
What is it with these folks who are so super keen on you & meeting up, and then when it comes to actually doing it or getting in touch - nada.
Here's hoping I'm proved wrong but I've been here before..... this whole stopping communication suddenly for no reason is absolute BS and needs to stop. Is there a secret society that gets off on this kind of shit? And these are men in their early 40s who do this to me!

I feel for you MPG, and I have no idea why it's so difficult for people to be upfront as opposed to running off like a coward. I also have no idea how people can instantly switch from all over you to nothing. What's wrong with people huh? I'm almost embarrassed for them especially if they're grown adults and not teenage boys to scared to be honest.
Fingers crossed for you that this isn't as you suspect although you're clearly someone who's a little bit 'wise' to this kind of things.
I think basically some people are just arses. Yup, that's my summary for today.
I think for a lot of people, and women are as guilty of this as men, it's about the thrill of the chase. They reel you in, then when they know they can get a date out of it, they run away. Not sure what the hell the point is but it's extremely cowardly and immature behaviour, sadly obviously not restricted to people in their 20s. It's almost like a competition they're having with themselves to see how many 'dates' they can score without actually leaving the house. As I said, utterly pointless.

On me way back from a lovely date turned out that he was on a golf course all day (forgot that he was off) and tried to WA me bit couldn't. Anyway, we'll see.
Sorry BB for sny hurt caused, sorry for being a drama queen earlier(although with my history can you blame me??) & Woofy, keep at it. It's painful but takes more tha 7 messages sometimes. Just don't see it as 7 constant rejections, hard & all as it is not to. We've all been there x
... Still no joy unfortunately. I've sent seven messages now, and not a dickie bird.
I'm glad I only signed up for the one month membership now, and I've already cancelled the auto renew as in my head I've already written it off.
Still, they do say good things happen when you least expect it.
Don't get disheartened and try not to take it as a personal rejection, although it sure feels like it. Just keep on keeping on, eventually someone will respond. I wish you luck!:)
Online dating is a bit like playing roulette. I haven't got lucky yet, but I live in hope. The last date was lovely on text, Skype and phone. In real life, he wasn't very clean, and that, for me, is a deal breaker.
