OMG, last night while chatting with a fellow on POF, I got a message from a guy who said he would like to meet me, he then told me, "I dont think we are a match because you are too fat." My first instinct was - you dumb@$$ if you think I am heavy now you should have seen me 9 months ago.

It is times like this I just wish men would say nothing at all because there was no need to be mean about it.

His loss - oh well *shrug*

Let the fishing continue.

May everyone have a wonderful Thursday !! :drinker:

    That's when you hit the "***** slap" button on the keyboard and have that robotic arm reach out of the disc player and whack him upside the head.

    It works great with stupid girls though:

    Me: "I don't think we are a match, because you are too stupid."
    Girl: laughs
    Me: "Ermmm... Ok. Anyway, what are you doing afterwards?"

    My favorite stupid thing said to me in online dating.

    Her: Hey, can you confirm that our date is happening on Saturday
    Me: Yeah, why whats up?
    Her: Oh nothing, there are just 5 other guys I'm interested in going out with if you can't make it.
    Me: I feel special!

    Playa playa... I always asked for confirmation myself just to make sure we were still on but I wouldn't have said WHY I'm confirming.

    OMG people are so rude! I don't think his mother taught him the rule, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all! I'm sorry he said this to you but at least you know he is not worth your time. Next!

    OMG, what an ARSEHOLE!

    I met a guy on POF and we went out for lunch...He took one look at me and seemed to lose all interest...it was the most awkward lunch of my life! Now, I don't have proof, but if I were to guess, I'd say he deleted me because I'm still heavy...But I figure no problem, I am still going to go out and meet guys...The RIGHT one won't care WHAT my weight is at, and little will he know that eventually my gorgeous bod will be once more! Bonus for him!

    So, you can do the same...There are good ones out there, they're just harder to find.

    It sounds like he was intentionally being a jerk and that's cool, you dodged a bullet! At least you didn't date him for 3 months then find out he's a jerk...right? :flowerforyou:

    What a jerk! I am so sorry about the insensitive comment. And you are too good for him anyway.

    I know how much words hurt. Sorry. But like others said - better to know now then find out too late and marry him (yes I did).

    Consider yourself lucky, a guy I used to know contacted this girl (via a chat) and had seen her picture, and she had seen his too...
    They had a date at a given place and time (a coffee shop or something), so the guy went there and he arrives at the place where the date is supposed to happen, he sees the girl but he told me he found her ugly - so (as you would have it) he decided to walk past and ignore her, the girls sees him and shouts: "Hey! Are you X?" and he just replies "No, sorry." and just went back home.

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Sorry.

    Oh I so agree some women can so just as bad - now that I would have never said why I was confirming. Then again- never been in that position. I like to try to make everyone feel as if they are special for one reason or another. Maybe I am just a softie with a hard exterior.

    You could have always responded with the classic, "That's okay, I can lose weight, but you'll be stupid/ugly/whatever forever"

    Very odd. He should have focused his efforts on thinner women if he felt that way about you. There's no reason to be rude like that in a one on one conversation.

    Sorry that you had to deal with that.

    That was incredibly insensitive and rude! I'm sorry you had to deal with that *kitten*!!! OMG how did you respond? I think I'd have let him have it, big time! What a classless jerk!!!

    I got rid of my POF account. I'm going to try Eharmony or Match. Any suggestions??

    good point Carl, some people on the internet are intentionally offensive. And trolls are not just teenagers. We live in a sad world where some people get their kicks this way.

    Never take a strangers word seriously/personally. You never know who you're talking to! :flowerforyou:

    He's probably got a very small **** anyhow!! :laugh: :wink:

    The worst part is she went 0-6.... not a very good playa if you ask me!

    I'm tired of eHarmony, lately I get maybe 1 match per day if that, half of them don't have pictures, most of the ones that do I'm not very attracted to, and the other ones either I don't think we're a very good fit or they don't respond. It's okay the first week or so though.

    I'd try Match, you have a much bigger selection. Although, the girl I'm seeing right now I met on eHarmony and sometimes I think it helped my chances that she may not have had a lot of options either :laugh:

    How do you know she went 0-6? That is a terrible playa, especially for a female.

    Eharmony is not worth the money for how few matches they send and how slowly people communicate there.

    I tried Match to no avail
    Eharmony was not much better... it is crazy

    she messaged me and asked why I haven't called her since our date... and I asked how her other dates went.

    People are cruel. Easy to say something on a computer.

    A guy I was chatting to on POF said the site was like a grocery store. You just pick the apples you think look good and hope they don't find out how shallow you actually are. hahaha I thought that was cute.
