Dating Dilemma!

You get all sorts in life as you get all sorts in dating. When I used to use dating sites, I used to say "friends only" and that worked most of the time. But there was those that.... Kept on. Thing to do is have a disposable phone. If it gets too much with someone, change the sim card. Thats what I did. But its really hard letting someone down gently. Some dont get it even though you have said "friends only". What can you do though? I hate to tell people at the first meeting that I dont want to see them again. Something in me is too cowardly or whatever to do it. There is no real answer to this. Except tough it out and perhaps get to know them first by chat or email or whatever. C.

Spoke to mutual friends about ''misunderstanding'' and also to each other and have cleared the air.

So agreed: to meet up again! !! We''ll see what happens..

Glad you got the misunderstanding sorted. But tell someone where your going and what time your expected back. If he gives you a lift somewhere or takes you anywhere text your friend the reg number and have regular text check ins. Say every wee break. I know this sounds OTT. But its good to be cautious. You dont know this person and you may think he is cool but he may not be. He will most likely be doing the same and feel the same about you. Your effectively strangers and you wouldnt get in a strangers car now would you.

But enjoy the evening. C.

Thanks I''ve done my home work.... & a close friend has filled me in on his back ground so thought I would give him or perhaps myself a second chance, so not going off with stranger as such... & I always tell someone where I am & who with...

I think of how much fun I have just goin out with friends and it how it would be easier just not to date.. Lol...

Just an update... Been dating this man since last post. Turned out to be a luvly man ...but now his ex has turned up throwing a spanner in the works such a pit:( y .

Really glad you have been having a good time - you deserve it and I am glad you have found someone nice.

I suppose what happens now depends on what size of a spanner the ex is putting in thw works and how long she is prepared to meddle for, oh and his reaction to it - is it just trouble for trouble''s sake which might pass if ignored - or is he hankering after an ex that has become available again.

I suppose you just have to ride it out - or jump off at any time if it becomes too hairy.

Look after yourself either way.

Think I''M now going to jump off SC..... Seems like his ex got wind of us & is now flashing her wotever in his direction & he''s like a puppy dog as far as she''s concerned. She seems to pick him up & drop depending on her immediate needs...

Not for me.. I just want an easy life!
Onwards & upwards as they say.
