Thinking ... we don't have a thread for (near) dates gone wrong? Maybe none of us wants to be reminded ...
But if you wanna have a rant, feel free to join the happy crowd!

I had a nice one just now. Thank god I hadn't invested time in him, apart from exchanging a mere few lines on a dating-site ...

Had this dude asking if he could call me ... So I'm thinking OK, why not. Why waste time on a site, just hear his voice, see if the convo works. Could be a time saver. So I gave him my number.
That was yesterday.
Nothing.
Oh well, no skin of my nose. Found it odd nonetheless. Normally a guys phones right away when he asks and is given a phone number.

Just now, 5-ish PM.., just after office hours, two phone calls, 'private number'. I missed both calls. Had a voicemail though, curious to hear the voice, assuming it's this bloke.
Speaking very very quietly, as if he doesn't want to be overheard:
"I'm calling private (no number recognition), because of my work for government, blabla..."

Right. Working for government means you can't make a phone call from your own cell???
Now understand why he didn't phone yesterday - Sunday. Prolly at home with the missus.

Think I'm gonna put Cancers on the "No Go" list too...
Always thought they were faithful to the bone, they're supposed to be. My Cancer ex hubby was. Don't think he ever even looked at another woman but me. Adored the ground I walked on.
But a couple of encounters have made me change my mind about Cancers

With Virgo on the "No Go" list as well, leaves me with another Taurus or a Capricorn to choose from
Never endeavoured those waters before ...

Apart from that, why do ppl waste someone's effing time? Thank god it wasn't much time, lol.
But is it any wonder that dating simply just sux, to me it does anyway. Never liked it, not when I was a teen/young adult either. Too much BS going on.

careful with that list...
only 12 slots.

Good point ....
But even if there's only 2 types left ... then there are millions of those around!

Haahaa..last week I paused before deleting my daily messages. guy had decent pics and took time to fill out his profile. lived in my state and had couple kids and at least sounded like good guy so I gave him benefit of doubt and said hello and asked him what he did for living..well he comes back with this bizarre off wall story about working for government and it all being very hush hush .


uh huh
I told him there is no shame in being a bus boy at a restaurant at age of 50 and he might want to call community mental health and check into counseling

Maybe it's the next trend? They worked out the military sob story ain't working, so now it's James Bond?

maybe, but you now have to search through and eliminate 83.3333333333% of the 7,318,888,000 (and counting) people in the world to find the 16.6666666667%
left that are scattered hither and yon...
so that you can find one you can hang out with long enough to see if you're gonna eliminate another 8.33333333335% to start again with the distinct possibility of eliminating the final 8.33333333335%.

then where ya gonna look?

Plus she will have to spend a considerable amount of time figuring out which ones lied to her about their date of birth....

negative elimination categories???
now my head is REALLY starting to spin!!!

LMAO right now because the very first thing that popped into MY head was ....A *blank,blank, blank* with a spinning head might be kinda fun ....

intriguing.
tell me more...

No....

Negative elimination categories..
haaahahahha dat list be a long one and keeps on a growing

you just did.

Oh FFS ... I got a headache now, lol. I ain't got with numbers!

Don't think the art of eliminating is for me anyway ... I'm an artist ... I like a full pallet ...
.

me neither, but i was able to work that one out.







oh, ffs! make up your mind before making me do all that math, willya.

These jerks are making it hard for us real government secret agent, navy seal, astronauts on witness protection to get a date!

Picky, picky, picky;

Didn't it occur to you that, yes, the guy may very well have been calling from a super secret location in Nigeria?

You may have just missed out on a very hot and exciting date chasing down Specter agents with a commander in Her Majesty's secret service.

What's up with women who say they want a man who is nice, sweet, sensitive....and yet when it is time to do the deed they want to taken like ho? Oh wait...I actually like that. Never mind. Carry on.
