Had a date yesterday. We were chatting on the phone and through FB and when we met up it seemed to go well. She lives a bit away so i drove up to see her and we went for a meal. All seemed good until on the way back she asked me to send on €100 and could i top up her phone as well as she is broke. WTF talk about a waste of time! :mad:

Wow thats shocking, what a user. Stlll at least she revealed her true colours early on.

Galwayguy, Massive red flag. Screams user. I'd be hesitant of taking a loan of 100 euro off someone I was with for a year. What a brass neck. Disgusted.

I'm just a nerd so I might be a naive and all but you appear to have a very odd view of relationships.

F*****g unbelievable.

If you didn't split the bill I think you should stay in contact and ask for her half of the money back :cool:

Well, my internet dating career is over before it began! Had a date for tonight, he cancelled on me. Not the best start ...

Hey chatterpillar, the same happened to me. was supposed to meet a guy on a Sunday day date, and he texted about 7pm the sat to say something had come up and he'd like to reschedule. A month on, I'm still waiting :eek:

Hey guys, loving this thread. Long time reader, just joined today :-D

Agree with the people giving out about communication being cut completely,no explanation, it's so frustrating! That's happened me twice now :-(

I went on a date with another guy before that, and I didn't feel any spark, he texted me after to say he enjoyed the date but if I didn't feel there was a point to meeting up again to just let him know. I said I thought he was lovely, but just not the guy for me, and wished him well, and he said he appreciated the truth and same to me. :-)

To be fair to the lad, he did sound genuine, and hopefully we'll meet up next weekend.

I'm just grouchy about it because I was looking forward to meeting him.

What a using b!tch!!
She may be broke, thats her problem, not yours.
When I was younger my boyriend at the time used to top up my credit so he could text me, but I'd never bloody ask him.

She wasnt working and said she needed the money to pay bills.

I guess she was looking for an easy meal ticket but she can get some other sap if she wants that. People like that make me very cynical.

Even in a relationship that kind of behaviour of asking someone for money is just...wrong!

missbelle · 20-11-2011 10:37pm

you've had a lucky escape I reckon, Galwayguy!!

The sad thing is she may well find that sap

I guess its a sign I'm in denial about getting older when I think someone online is a bit old when I see his age and then realise he's only 4 years older than me

Advice for girls, when a fella asks a question to make conversation, don't just answer the question and say no more. Why do most do this? :pac:

Aww...I always try to continue the conversation (If I'm enjoying the banter,that is!) otherwise that kinda cuts off communication if I just answer the Question :rolleyes:

They are probably just being polite tbh.

No it's like they don't have a brain to think :P

i.e I'd mention something on their profile and comment on it, maybe say something about myself and then ask a question to finish, and all the do is answer the question.

I do the same sometimes. More often than not, I get a reply or two with a question thrown in here and there to keep some sort of conversation going.

I hope the question wasn't, "Would you like a picture of my penis?" :pac:

They do it when they're not that interested in talking.

They usually stop replying when I send my pic though, so thought this meant something else :P

missbelle · 20-11-2011 11:18pm

You should have the photos up originally, I won't reply if I can't see who I'm talking to

They ask for a pic, I send it, I get no reply. Simples.

I'm just saying, if someone messages me who has a photo and I don't like the look of them, I don't reply. May seem mean, but I am there to find someone I fancy. Same way, If I mail someone and don't get a reply, I presume they don't like the look of me :rolleyes:
Actually I think I've settings so that people must have a photo to contact me, and that way, even if they have private images I can still see them :cool:
