    Wow that is a bit of a leap. He might just like chatting, he might be shy, basically it could be any number of things. No need to jump to the marriage issue.

    If you bothered to read my post after that you will read that i was only guessing as to what might be the problem.

    Only way to work out what he wants is to ask him what he wants and not let him off the hook if he ignores the question and talks about something else.

    Not that much of a leap - I've been approached by more attached guys over the years, than single ones....it is a very very common thing with online dating!

    I did read your post, I was asking why even guess that he was married. If you read my post, you'll see I was suggesting it could be any number of things.

    Read her posts, he doesn't exactly sound like the average married man looking for sex on the side. No need to get snippy with me or suggest I'm naive. My point was that a married man looking for action on the side wouldn't blatantly ignore requests for dates/meet-ups etc. That is why I was asking what would a married man get out of such behaviour? Why would a married man go to such efforts to get an online friend and ignore every request for a real life meet up.

    Oh but what joy it is to see their "innocent" faces when they come home to find both their gf's in the living room!

    Ok, my guess is he has something to hide like maybe a girlfriend, wife?

    Just ask him straight out and if you don't get the answer you want then say goodbye and move along. You'll find someone soon enough.....................when you least expect it.

    don't agree with assuming the married thing, but I do agree that you should be upfront, and maybe ask him straight out, if he's still not into it, forget about him.

    well i think his point was that this guy was avoiding meeting up, and continued the communication, so what would he get from that, and while he could get many things from it, an ego boost etc., but if he's not going to meet up, he's hardly one of the ones that's blatantly out for sex :confused:

    Like I say above, I'm not ignorant to married men wanting to have sex on the side through dating sites, any eejit knows that happens. I'm saying why would a married man go do what this guy in particular is doing.

    because they could be all ready to go and real life stops it - like one of the kids is sick, or wifey changed her plans to go out with the girls etc.

    Yes it could be a number of things and i said he could be married or have a wife. Its a dating site, she's not looking to find penpals, new friends.

    They all have an angle or an agenda, it could be many reason if he is of course married with a wife.

    Ah, you're better off finding out what's the story with these head wreckers coz they'll just string you along.

    Now if I were a cheating husband (not a sentence I've written a lot :pac:), I'd just say "yeah I'd love to, but my I have to work this weekend/I'm meeting my brother etc. How about another time?". I wouldn't just totally ignore it and bring up a different random topic. If you read her posts, it doesn't seem like they were ever all ready to go anywhere.

    Nerves?? He could be thinking about it, but then chickening out

    So, all we've determined is tonight is that no one REALLY knows what Activity Partners are, Denise reckons all Paddy's are chickens, and going by her posts it's entirely possible, and I was being an insensitive pr1ck earlier on

    I think you are missing my point. I'm just saying his actions make it seem very unlikely that he is married. I'm not saying anything else. Not saying he is categorically unmarried for obvious reasons, just that I think it unlikely.

    Nobody is saying anybody wants penpals or new friends (or that nobody wants them either :pac:).

    you're missing the panic mode of possibly getting caught though, people can't always think up something believable in a heartbeat.

    Why is there any doubt about activity partners? :confused: Surely it just means somebody to go do things like walking, climbing etc with? In other words you are looking for a partner to do activities with....:confused:
