In all seriousness, if I could offer any advice, I would suggest to anyone that you should approach these things as though you are not going to see the person again. Or as someone else suggested that you are just meeting up with a friend. That way, anything else is a bonus.
So I threw out a "sorry I had to rush off" and coffee shop girl caught it and threw back a "maybe we could meet again".

I agree 100%. When we have silly expectation then we guarantee disappointment and resentment. I try to make light of it all and go along like you, just a casual chat and coffee with a usually very nice person looking for the same thing we are all looking for.
Having said that I admit to being quit nervous if I manage to attract someone I really fancy from their photo. But that's normal.
In the last 3 days on POF I am amazed at how many women of 40-55 are so overweight and have let themselves go completely. I imagine it's not so different for guys, but it is pretty shocking. Especially when you realise that they describe themselves as 'average build' :rolleyes: :rolleyes:0 -

Until it cooled down and I finished the whole thing off.
Frothy? Hope you don't get the old text in a couple of weeks "Wobbly.. I'm Latte
"

Was that Textmates? You could send anonmous texts. I actually met 2 women off that ( not at the same time) in and around the same area. One was older than me and the other was slightly younger. Nothing ever came out of them but had lots of fun, the leg over etc:p.. Found out afterwards they were mother and daughter:eek::D 0 -

Changed from "seeing someone" to "single"!!
Just kidding well, when i set it up i came across more abrasive to put off time wasters..but it also put off everyone else except a few die hards. Just delivered the same message but more diplomatically. Also, never underestimate how cute you look as a kid at the stick of a plane :pac:... 0 -

Thanks. My profile is a bit like that already. I was think of changing it to put off time wasters. Glad it's working for you anyway. Must try digging out some baby pics 0 -

So much for meeting up with that girl from last Friday night. I texted her on Monday to suggest meeting up again and she kinda seemed on for it but then she got very quiet during the week and didn't really hear from her. Texted her again last night to see how things were and she said she was mad busy at work and stuff during the week, which I guess explains why I hadn't heard from her. But she had time to go onto the dating site the day before :rolleyes:
Anyway I asked last night if she wanted to meet up again and there has been no reply. I will take that as a no.
A bit frustrating as I thought she was interested but I guess she's not for whatever reason.
Onwards and upwards.
Why could she not have just said she didnt see it working or whatever?! I dont get some people.If your not interested just say so.honesty all the way Hope you have better luck next time 0 -

I just got a text there now saying she's going to be too busy with work and things over the next few weeks so it's better we don't make plans. Sounds like a PFO to me which is how I'm treating it. Number deleted 0 -

Ah I'm not really. I kind of try not to put all my eggs in one basket when it comes to this kind of thing as people can be so fickle. There's one or two other girls I have my eye on though so I may chase up those leads
There's one girl at work I really fancy, if only I could ever get a chance to talk to her!0 -

If only it were that easy. She works in another part of the building, in another team, in a different job. We also have no friends in common so there's no chance of getting to chat to her that way. Will just have to hope I bump into her some day in the lift or something.0 -
