    Right so i joined a dating site , my ego needed soothing - while waiting 24 hours for my photo to be approved i got 30 hits ....yayyyyy when the photo went up I got over 700 hits in 4 days !!!! So decided to meet one special chap from Galway. He came all the way to Dublin and we met in a bar on baggot street. I didn't really recognise him from his "excellant photo" He recognised me though. So i said to myself be nice give the poo guy a chance maybe we'll have a fun chat. We had a pint and decided to go to the museum (did not want beer googles) Museum was closed so we went to the national gallery. After having a quick look around one of the rooms he said he had to go to the bathroom. Guinness had run through me so i said I'd head over that way too. So I came out of the ladies couldn't see him so I waited just across the hall from the mens bathroom.


    15 minutes passed .
    I started desperatly looking for some offical to go in to the loo and make sure he hadn't fallen and hit his head..... then i got a text...

    "sorry i'm not coming back"

    I headed home immediatly and deleted my account.

    Anyone else had a good bad or funny experience with online dating ?

    If your shy please send an pm

    You should have ticked the 'Anal' box under interests and hobbies.

    I met someone once but she turned out to be someone from a TV show trying to pry funny information out of me for the show's content. It was worth it though, I left promptly.

    The OP's name does kind of suggest that. What's the harm anyway...not like "she" will get anything in AH that they can print or broadcast.

    I will gladly join any site that will help me get poon tang. Oh yeah!

    Meh... you went on a date with an asshole (noe, 011-wahtever, wasn't me!). It happens. Whether you met him on the internet or in a pub doesn't matter.

    Don't let one bad experience get you down. I know people who got marrried and started families via online dating.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Ok, this is turning harsh, which is probably my fault.
    Nevertheless, OP you need to think about a paper bag, nothing fancy but you have to cover up if you wanna land a man. It worked wonders for Ugly Bob!

    Maybe two paper bags seeing as how he legged it so quickly.

    One for your head and one for his head in case your bag falls off. :D

    Ok, OP. I gave you the chance to admit to working for a production company or to at least explain your intentions here.

    You have failed to do so.
    We're done here.
