Getting back into dating

[Petal~flower]

You who know me on here, know I my relationship broke up last year (yawn) and thanks to all who listened (bez, sleepy) especially.

But the way the relationship ended, has dented my self esteem. He moved away for a big salary. And brand new car. After being together for nearly 4 years. (says a lot about me huh!) lol

But I am now well over him. But am finding it hard to move on and wanting to meet anyone else. I cant be bothered to try even.

Online dating doesnt really appeal to me.

I sort of want to be with someone, but to be honest, am scared of getting hurt all over again.

p.s. had a couple of glasses of wine, if not I would not of posted this lol

legend, I think its a myth that all those dating sites are swamped with just men looking for sex. Women do it too!

Pasta. yes you make sense to me xx

[pastafreak]

so right,pet xx

[legend759]

Men get hurt too you know? Grrrrrr


See you women.

Legend I didn't say they didnt. Did I?

[legend759]

Ive heard a few tales of guys when they meet someone on these sites.They say they will leave.But stay there still looking.If theres a better opportunity im sure theyre the type to move on.But i might be wrong.Maybe.

Leg - Scott and Evelyn and they did get a lot of feedback -it was fun cos i was involved (of course -my PC lol) -they met and spoke to people then i got fed up with them coming up everyday to check messages so that out paid to that -lol

Here Leg same could be said for someone you meet in the pub -o yeah i'm single -we'll just go back to yours cos its closer -o I have to go cos I forgot to let the cat out -heard all the patter before.Was kinda glad cos the morning after is hoooorrreeeennnnddooouuuss -you dont know if youve been snoring it up -mouth like the bottom of a budgies cage -o no -never again -lol

Legend, I went on a dating/friends site. Got this married man talking to me, I told him I was not interested. But in our previous chats (before I knew he was married) he told me about women he had met on the site, who were married and wanted to meet someone for a threesome.

Thats what put me off dating sites. Oddballs!

[legend759]

true trinny

thats the problem

[Petal~flower]

pasta, thats my fear too. Getting involved with someone from a dating site, who you like, but they could be chatting and flirting away with loads of other women. And not taking you seriously. Like playing a game really.

Are we talking the same thing here? lol xx

[pastafreak]

ooo-yuck...and creepy

[Drisgirl]

Same could happen in a pub -trust me.

[Petal~flower]

What happened to good old fashioned romance huh

[legend759]

romance has a place but its not the great thing its made out to be doll.

[pastafreak]

says who...whenn it happens..iss like locomotive....hits you...

[Petal~flower]

Romance exists Legend. Its just finding it nowadays thats the problem.

[legend759]

locomotive maybe,maybe not doll

[legend759]

i think thats just fantasy doll.

[Petal~flower]

Why is it a fantasy then Legend?

Is it because society is so sex obsessed?
