Be safe, Gaeta.  Anyone with $9.95 to spare can go on a multitude of sites that will provide all the information they need just from your phone number.

These men have no social skills/graces and do not know how to interact with women.

 

Happy lemming is right on the mark!

 

 

I told you poetry guy was nuts. He's now stalking you.

 

About the sexual innuendos - he should be his own man - a true gentleman does not react. In fact, you making innuendos could be a good test!

 

The thing is, yes there are great people out there on dating sites - but there is also a lot of riff-raff. You are getting the cream of the crap. Stop comparing rotten guys and wait until you meet a good one to have a second date.

 

 I say keep fishing.

Number 10 Last night late in the evening started again with the sex talk. Then it dawn on me that he's like this later at night. I think he drinks in the evening. I reminded him I am not interested in these types of discussions with a man I have not met yet. He sent me a passive-aggressive message that if he bothers me this much then he's not going to text me anymore, he's sorry he's been a bother to me, he would never disrespect me, etc. Add on top of that he made no definitive plan to meet me. He used the excuse he has contractors at his house this weekend.

Another one on my block list 😞 

On to number 11 & 12

Other than a little texting, you didn't have all that much invested in #10... No big loss, there.

Batter up...

Who's next on deck??  Fill us in on #11 and #12??

Number 11: is an hyperactive IT. He's cool, easy to talk to, he text at the speed of light and he uses A LOT of emojis. Like his first message had like 12 of them lol. He got covid and says he's not back to himself, I can't imagine he can be even more hyper. 

Number 12: is a primary school teacher. Completely different personality than 11. He's calm, talkative but not excessife, more on the shy side. 

Both were available to meet this weekend but I got my 2nd vaccine yesterday and today I feel like the energy was sucked out of me. Not the best of time.

Yes... about 8 hours after I got my second shot I felt tired and weak, then I went downhill from there and was on the couch for the next 4 days.  I'm not complaining, as it was worth it... just hope you don't get as sick/weak.

#12 sounds a little better than #11... maybe schedule with him first (when you feel better).

I think they know how to interact with women they just don't care to do it. Example The guy that ran his hand under my dress had been married 28 years, he has a sister his age who's his best friend,  he is a nurse working in a hospital filled with women. He knows exactly how to treat women but a lot of women online accept (look for) this behavior so men think they can just take.

I agree with this, Gaeta.  My experience has been that there are a lot of guys online who are effectively leading a double life.  They are looking for their 'fantasy' experience in reality.  They do not care about the women they contact; they are just looking for free thrills.  I tried online dating for a long time but it has increasingly become full of guys who are married, seeking 'older' women for whatever reason, seeking casual sex or people with kinks and fetishes.  They can't find someone to satisfy their needs in their normal social life, so they go online and try there.  Unless women are aware of this element of online dating, they are likely to be taken at first.  Of course, the guy gets dumped when his true colours are seen but it's actually very concerning and a real safety issue.

After my second vacc (I also got Pfizer) I was down for the count for 3-4 days. Flu-like symptoms and such a severe pain in my arm that actually lasted for weeks. Don't want to make you nervous about it but if you do get sick, just know it seems to be a pretty common occurrence 

 

I think when guys lead with sexual comments it's doomed from the start. They can keep their mouth shut about it if you ask them to but it doesn't change where their heads are at

 

#11 and #12 sound better. I love guys who are chatty via text and use emojis lol
 

Good luck and have fun! ☺️

I had very little reaction to my 2nd shot that ended up being Moderna. A bit of tiredness, a bit of chill at night, and I'm back to normal this morning. 

Number 11 is a bit of a weirdo. He told me he's writing a movie scenario for Dwayne Jonhson and if I'd agree to add Dwayne on my FB and maybe I can try to reach him, as he's been unable to do that so far. 😑

Oh no, no jokes! He told me the story in his scenario and if l could help with the story development. Lol big turn off. He wrote me good morning with his usual 12 emojis, l can't get myself to reply. Too bad, good looking man, funny, great energy. I imagine myself bringning him over to family dinner and he starts talking about his script for 'the rock'.

Do you think the people behind the dating app are doing this to you??  They are filtering out all of the normal people and sending you just the weirdo(s)?? Maybe their algorithm doesn't like something about your profile??

I mean... you can't make this stuff up!!

Even if this guy is joking, the whole thing is just stupid... on so many levels.

Your experience either defies the law of averages or there truly are that many weirdo(s) on OLD.

It's too weird to be made up!

I've learn this weekend that the weirdos are even close to us. I was speaking to my nephew's gf, her mom is 51 is online dating. She was telling me her mother falls in love with every man she meets on a first date. So much they had to tell her to not bring these men home until 3 months dating at least. 

The weirdos are numerous and amoung us lol.

Did you go to high school with Dwayne or perhaps you or your relatives are in the movie industry? :) Just so bizarre.   Of course you need to read the script first and he has to be willing to take notes :) , that and your up front consultation fee.

Nothing to apologize for...  the (facebook - the rock) thing is very strange to request of you. 

I mean if he stated his hobby was writing screenplays and he hoped one day that one of his ideas would be picked up, that would be fine, but #11 went far beyond that... next.

Why is it a bad thing?   Any why even do a slow fade, he's not for you, you know that, HE probably knows that, simply block and delete.

I think I posted previously that when I did OLDing before I met my last ex, I talked to around 50 (yes that's 50!!) men (at least) before deciding to meet two men, the second one who became my boyfriend of three years (last ex).

You've got good intuition Gaeta, when you encounter BS (which this is imo), just delete and block, no need to even say anything, heck it's on line, no one cares.

For me, even though it was on line it's like what Tom Hanks said in the move "Sleepless in Seattle," I know just a movie but what he said rang true for me.

Wait until you get a sort of "feeling" or a "sense" about the person and the way you're vibing together; it's EXTREMELY rare when it happens that way, on line and in real life, so be patient and don't waste time talking to OR meeting men you don't get that "sense" about and with whom you're not vibing....

Just a suggestion, it worked for me and saved me a TON of time meeting men I KNOW it would go no where with....  

That said, if this is your style, then continue on, just posting what worked for me.   Plus, it IS fun hearing about your adventures, which is totally selfish of me because it's entertaining for ME to read.  But in the end, do what works best for you.

Good luck!!

I think that is perfect.  It is not a slow fade it is "fade to black" ...then sweeping camera shot to our next scene....I'm sure #11 would understand. :)
