BMW Loser!

Monday, August 10th, 2009

Ok little more to it with this bloke, I call him the BMW guy because he’s one of those guys who uses his BWM as compensation for is small….ego shall we say ;) The first dates were fine, great even, it was the way he treated me afterward that really requires some revenge! Ok my mum set me up with a bloke from work. He was really nice, he txt me quite a bit, seemed really eager, on our 6th date he drops me off home after a kiss and a cuddle in the back of his car and says “ok babe i’ll see ya next wednesday, i’ll give ya a txt 2morro ok”, few days go by….. Nothing, I Mean Nothing, No txt, no phone call nothing!

I took the hint and didn’t bother. 2 weeks later i got a txt, “sorry ain’t talked to ya in a while work messing with my head, do u wanna go out nxt wednesday?” I said ok to the date. Next wednesday comes along 2 hours b4 he is suppose to pick me up, he txt’s me saying “sorry cnt make tonight my mates have been in a car accident gotta go and see them in hospital, I’ll txt ya 2morro babe”, later that week i find out (from some people in work) this wasn’t true, (well his friends had been in a crash but that was the week before, he didn’t go and see them that night) he actually ditched me again to go to the pub, Ok i took it on the chin & carried on. 3 weeks go by, he txt’s me again “sorry blah sorry blah blah do u wanna go out nxt wednesday to catch up”. I stupidly agreed thinking I would get a decent appology, on the date he was really rude, he barely talked to me, txting on his phone every 2 seconds, just all in all a miserable pillock! Then at the end of the date, we use to finish things off with a kiss and a cuddle in his car,but not this time, he said “I think I’m gonna go home now, I’m tired from work”. I said “ok see ya soon then”, He said his famouse line “I’ll txt ya 2morro ok”, To which i replied “I DONT THINK I’LL HOLD MY BREATH”. I went home and I havn’t heard from him since! Now every time I see him in work, I either get a half assed hello, or an awkward glance! ha ha ha! I know we wern’t serious or anything, but i thought this really wasn’t called for, I did nothing to deserve this, so this was my revenge, I’m over this, His Loss :)

First date letters

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

I met a guy online whose picture seemed nice and he was very chatty, so I decided to meet up with him.

I arrived at the pub and there was a guy standing outside and as I approached him it was clearly obvious that he was only just over 5ft myself being 5ft 6″ that was a little odd, he had no hair and dark circles around his eyes and all I kept thinking about was Uncle Fester from the Adams Family!

Me being polite decided to continue with the date being friendly and chatty and as we sat down after ordering our food his mobile phone rang, it was a work call he had to take. I wouldn’t have minded if he would tell them he is in the middle of another meeting and call them back later but he sat on the phone for the whole of the time we were waiting for the dinner. Making comments in front of me like ‘that’s just not good enough’ I am going to sort them out blah blah blah. I was bored and was sure he was doing it to impress me and it wasn’t working!

Once he got off the phone because our dinner had arrived and apologised he continued to go on and on about his important job and I felt my eyes glaze over because I had completely lost interest.

The funniest part was he excused himself to go to the men’s and he was gone ages, I thought shall I do a runner now??? but decided I would be polite and make up an excuse about getting home early. When he finally came back he looked at me with shock and said ‘Your still here then’, to which I replied ‘Why do most of your dates usually do a runner’ and his reply was ‘I don’t have much faith in women’. I wished I had ran away and had to give the false nice to meet you goodbye but I had a good giggle all the way home.

Online Dating And Your Online Security

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

Online dating is a wonderful thing. Whoever invented it deserves a medal for opening up the world to people that do not have the time to date or the inclination to go to bars and such to meet people. However, although online dating did bring a lot of good with it, it also left the door open to a lot of bad things too. Now you are obviously thinking about attacks and rapes. Believe it or not, there are very few of those. The newspapers may highlight them once in a while but the actual occurrence of it is incredibly rare. As long as you take good security measures you have nothing to worry about with that. Instead it is the online threat that poses a problem.

Online dating does really require you to lay yourself bare. You have to give people access to your emotions and your heart, but you also have to give the online dating site itself access to your computer. In the majority of cases this is not a problem because the reputable sites offer plenty of online security and would never knowingly transfer viruses and adware to your computer. However, there are some online dating sites that would as well as individual users that may send you viruses through individual messages as well.

There are ways and means to protect yourself and your computer whilst you are on online dating websites. Firstly, it is essential that you get a good computer security package to help protect your computer against any threats There are plenty of good ones out there that you can purchase, but you should make sure that the one you choose has protection against a whole list of critters, including worms, viruses, adware, spyware and malware. A good all round anti-virus product will have a good security centre that will work alongside your computer to keep it healthy and to prevent individuals getting a hold of personal details whilst online dating.

The above security packages are easy to buy and install so you have no excuse not to use one. It is essential with online dating. However, you can also take precautions yourself in addition to this. For example, do not open any files that someone off an online dating site has sent you and never navigate to another website via a link they have sent you either. Both are clever ways of getting a worm, virus or Trojan into your computer system. These are only basic pointers and are incredibly easy to do but they will effectively protect your computer during online dating so you can relax safe in the knowledge that your interests are safe!

10 Things You Should Never Say To A Guy On The First Date

Monday, August 11th, 2008

Following on from the 10 things that you should never say to a girl on the first date, we’ve got to fill the ladies in on protecting themselves as far as possible against rejection. Not only do guys have to watch what they say but girls do too. If a guy feels that he’s being insulted on the first date then he isn’t going to want to see you again.

In some ways, guys are more sensitive than girls. Although girls won’t like a guy that waxes lyrical about his ex or his mum, a guy won’t like any phrases that attack his masculinity or looks. Check out the 10 things not to say to a guy on the first date below:

  1. For some reason you’re thinner than I remembered you!
  2. I like feminine looking guys
  3. You call those muscles?
  4. Wow, check him out!
  5. My ex says…
  6. I want to get married in the next year or so.
  7. My ex was a bouncer/security guard/professional wrestler/policeman etc
  8. I’m very independent and don’t need looking after by anyone, especially a guy.
  9. I don’t do sex, not until after I’m married.
  10. I can’t wait to settle down and have lots of kids.

Now if you stay away from those phrases on your first date, or variations of them, then you’ll be absolutely fine!

Online Dating: How Old Is Too Old?

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

There seems to be a preconception of the dating world today, by both the old and young alike, that dating is only for those below the age of forty or so. Of course, the figure alters from person to person but you get the idea! Online dating especially is viewed as a young person’s thing, but is it really? Is online dating acceptable for people of any age or is there a point at which old becomes too old?

The short and sweet answer is no. At no age are you too old to date. If you do not want to date when you hit a certain age than that is totally your choice, but you should not let age put you off if you still want to date. Online dating is a wonderful thing in that it has a whole host of benefits for you no matter how old you are. It can open up the whole world to you, literally.

Some of the reasons outlined below draw on the benefits online dating to explain just why you are never too old to date:

  • Love can blossom at any age – Love does not discriminate, whether you are old or young. If you meet someone that you have that spark with then age does not matter at all. This is why you are never too old to use online dating. The heart and soul are separate to the head. It does not matter whether you believe that you are too old or not, your heart will contradict your head if you meet that special someone.
  • You can meet likeminded people however old you are – Your interests and hobbies can be shared by anyone, and it is this that gives you something to talk about. To date someone successfully, you have to have something to talk about and online dating can help you to sort out the people that you do have things in common with from those you do not. As a result, you can use online dating to save time, which is essential as you get older.
  • Dating can also provide companionship and friendship – So maybe you do not want to date. If you were deeply in love and lost that person then this would be understandable, but seniors use online dating services all the time to find friendship and companionship rather than love. You can meet new friends and chat until your heart is content. You can find whatever you want online so make the most of the services at your disposal.
  • If you can master technology, you can do anything you like irrespective of age – No further explanation needed! If you can master the Internet, you can do anything you put your mind to, including online dating.
