Sorry to hear that. Are u sure u blew it?
Yep
I had a lot of stuff on top of me and we got into silly arguments over text over nothing. She said she got over it and still wanted to see me. She was even saying to me how she had told her friends all about me and was even thinking about what to get for my birthday this week, I mean this was all from just texting and Skyping. Even better when we were only chatting a week, I had to go into hospital for a night near where she was and she was going to come visit me. I know ye might think she was a little forward but she was very sweet in fairness.
We met spent all Saturday holding hands, kissing, even cilled at hers and she was cuddling upto me on her bed. SHe said she was very happy with how it was going. But she said she wanted to give me a chance by meeting but she kinda felt a bit like she'd be walking on egg shells around after those occasions. It was totally out of character for me but I understood tbh and am ashamed and bummed out
I even have a few other girls giving me their nums/Skype now but I'm not really in form now.0 -

I don't think it's beyond repair at all. I think all too often we are quick to shut down when we feel we may have been too full on or too eager or that the other person may know to much about us in the initial stages... Hell I'm pretty guilty of it!
Can you try and talk to her about it or have a chat over text or email? Explain that you like her and would love to see her again if she was willing?0 -

Oh we talked about it in person before I left. She's had exes that were quick to give out to her/accuse her over stuff. Basically the really jealous type and she's worried that cause I went off at her so easy any little thing she might do would set me off. I tried to explain it was out of character but she said she was afraid of getting too into me, then having to break up with me if I turned out to be like that. I left Sat night, she said she needed time to think.
She text early Sun morning saying she wouldn't be comfortable. I said I really liked her and it wouldn't happen again but she said she'll text if she feels different, but her mind is set for now I just said ok to get in contact any time if she wants. I don't want to pester her and look like a right psycho. 0 -

You're right, don't pester and give her time to think. Hopefully she will see that this wasn't in your nature. You handled it well and hopefully she will see that you are being genuine.
Don't be too downhearted. If it is meant to be... It wont pass you. As the saying goes.

Thanks It's just such a pain after wading through all the timewasters and false starts to know you were onto a good thing but for acting the knob I hadn't met anyone I liked that much in a long time.
One thing I wondered is maybe she liked me but wasn't totally into me though and said that rather than I don't fancy you. But then I think she wouldn't have spent a whole day kissing me, cuddling me and the whole lot surely if she didn't feel it?0 -

I can't explain why they message - but as a guy of ~50 on POF it is disappointing how many profiles of 23-27 year old girls they persist in highlighting to me in emails and on the site itself.0 -

So going by Armaghmagic's figures above you can expect approximately a 1/20 of a message return!

He could be goodlooking though which is bound to reduce that. Also if he has his city set to Dublin then I would say its down to 1/5 so good luck! I have neither of the above going in my favour.......doesnt stop me giving it a bash though :-)0 -
