Not bothering to date.. Its all frankly worrying..

Some of these are so terrible!

Most of my awful dates just came from guys trying to feel me up. So annoying.

Oh. I did have one of those. There was a brief period where the man and I split up a few years ago and I tried Internet dating and I met the guy I refer to as Octopus Man. I forgot about him.

You have an octopus man too?!?!?! OMG!

He was a pilot, so he was in town staying at a hotel and kept trying to convince me to just come up and "look" at his room. He was NOT taking the hint at all when I said NO.

I finally said I really needed to get home to my daughter (I don't think she was even home that night. lol) and he walked me to my car and kept telling me I shoudl come back after she went to bed.

*sigh*

ugh...so gross. Why would a guy even want to fool around with someone who is so CLEARLY not interested? I guess some people just don't care.

The one guy that sticks out in my mind is a guy that I repeatedly dated because I liked him a lot, even though he was a total douche. I was too young to understand that. Everytime we were together he was all over me. I gave in once, and felt like it was a mistake so i didn't do it again. One time we were laying down watching a movie and he was literally ripping my clothing off of me while i slapped at his hands repeatedly. He had held me down and was calling himself trying to be "sexy" when basically all he was doing was about to rape me. He had a roomate that had just gotten home and knocked on his door wanting something from him. I distinctly remember him saying (while he was on me holding me down) YOU JUST GOT LUCKY.

Seriously? Needless to say, that was the last time I saw him.

- the man who said "Chaka Khan" the way people say "your mom" or "thats what she/he said." just said Chaka Khan all the time for no apparent reason.

I can’t blame a guy for liking the song “I Feel For You” by Chaka Khan, where it begins with the name Chaka Khan repeated a bunch a times. But yes, randomly saying Chaka Khan all the time for no apparent reason would get annoying real quick.

Frankly I think it got annoying circa 1984 - 10 minutes after everyone started doing it in the play ground! :happy:

Worst boyfriends? Hmm. By far there was the one who moved in with me (temporarily, I thought, but he outstayed his welcome) and pinched a friend's coat. The friend found out when he came round a couple of months later and saw his coat hanging up in the hall. The git had emptied the pockets and put the contents (including said friend's heirloom lighter) at the back of my bottom drawer! I finally got rid of him after that.

There was also the one who threatened to jump out of his bedroom window if I didn't quit college and move back home. Kicker? He lived in a bungalow.

I went out with a man who on the second date told me he had once summoned Satan and failed 11th grade from smoking too much weed. I had one date with a man who bragged about racing lawn mowers. And I also had one of those experiences with a great date which ended with an invite to bed and after that fell through. Dated a man who invited me on a trip with him for his birthday - I took off work and he texted me the night before saying he thinks we should just be friends and uninvited me - none of these worked out obviously. I dated a lot of men over about 3 years and have a good boyfriend now. The dating world isn't much fun!

OMG! That's really scary.

I have no idea what would have happened if I'd been dumb enough to actually go to this guy's room, but I'm glad I didn't.

In my very early 20s, I met this super hot guy at a church thing (I'm not religious, but everyone I know is Catholic and it was a fun night out. lol). I really liked him, but we kind of ended up in a friends with benefits situation. But I had hung out with him several times wothout anything happening, so I decided I didn't want the benfits part of it anymore.

So I stopped by his house one day just to say hello, and when I tried to leave he started kissing me, then I pulled away and started toward the door. He followed me, had me pressed up against the couch and wouldn't let go. He started calling me a tease and getting really angry. He started to pick me up and turned toward his bedroom. I don't know what happened, he must have realized he was doing something wrong, because he stopped. I ran the heck out of there.

Ran into him in a bar a couple months later and he actually came over to tell me he'd be up late doing laundry if I wanted to stop by.

Hahahaha, thank you for the laughs!

I haven't been on a date/kissed/nada zip zilch for 18 or so months now. Did join online dating for a bit and used pics of me doing stuff I like - hiking, mud runs, etc. Had no interest what so ever from anyone even though I'd messaged a few people - they didn't even have the courtesy to reply!

Then things changed... my profile started getting checked out and a few guys messaged me.

Unfortunately it wasn't a change for the better.

1st guy to message - we were having a great message conversation for a bit when he typed the words 'I don't know if this is too cheeky or forward but I want to ask you a question.' I pretty much was expecting almost anything after that (and not in a good way) when I said 'no problem, ask away'. "Do you wear underwear when you do those runs?" (in my mind - REALLY... you think THAT is a good question to ask 5 minutes into an online messenger conversation with someone for the first time!) I responded, "no" out of morbid curiosity to see how depraved he was. He said if he'd seen me there he'd have taken me into the bushes and kissed me. I said that he wouldn't have as I was there with my parents. He said he would have anyway. Oddly enough I didn't hear from him again after I said he'd have to wind it back a bit. LOL Yep, he lived down to expectations.

2nd guy to message - kept talking about how his mother would have to read the messages to see if I was "suitable".

3rd guy to message - just kept asking "Wanna F%^%$?"

I gave up and deleted my profile.

Don't get me wrong - I have met some great guys through online dating, one of my good friends and I went out for 6 months after meeting on a website - we eventually realised friendship was what was on the cards for us.

Octopus man is an amazing phenomenon - polite, intelligent man turns brain off and arms multiply!

I once also had a good friend that I would meet for dinner once a month for a few years. We'd talk about our various relationship ups and downs, etc and just have a good time as friends. Until the night when I'd had a bit too much to drink and instead of our usual hug and peck on the cheek goodnight I looked up to see his mouth wide open with his tongue sticking out approaching my face at a very rapid speed! Luckily I was able to turn away quick enough but my cheek looked like I'd had a run in with the slimey thing from Ghostbusters!!!

Now, single and loving it!!! I seriously don't know if I want to have a relationship as I am enjoying just doing what I want too much and don't really want to go back to having to be considerate of someone else. Yep, I'm enjoying being selfish. That may change in the future but it'd take someone pretty special to make me want to consider a relationship.

Lol, wow...
Where are you finding these people? haha.

Just so I know to stay away :P

No, I retain my dating to the north of the UK, but starting to think expanding to Craigslist might help..

I highly disagree with the craigslist thing, unless you want to catch diseases.

or your wanting to end up dead so you don't have to date anymore

I forgot to add the time that women hit on me (I'm heterosexual). I had a woman I work with ask me to be her walking partner and eventually told me that she was leaving her husband and wanted to start a new life with me. I had a woman who offered me a job (I had previously worked with her), then two days later invited me to go to a strip club with her, asked to spend the night at my house, and volunteered to be the designated driver. I also had a bisexual neighbor once say to me 'Ï know you don't like it but I'm going to do it anyway" while rubbing my leg after I told her I didn't want to be involved with her.

I also had a real doosey around a man who was everything I wanted. He dubbed me "Goddess Andrea" and talked about our future together but after we were together a few months, all he would talk about is how he wanted to see me having sex with other men in front of him. This was before had actually been together sexually. I told him it was okay if he was gay.

Since these experiences, I've moved to the country and started working from home (for real). The world is a strange place.

been single for a year now since a looooong relationship.....went on probably 5 dates from online dating.......3 of them were easily 50 lbs heavier then there pics....2 i didnt even recognize.......1 talked about her miscarriage and how her ex bf was happy about it and how she just got poison ivy in and around her vag.....and 1 who i ended up dating for a month and was crazy.....ive almost come to find out if a girl is on a dating site theres a reason.

You know, I've been on dating sites in the past -- was a young, single mother, full time job, just not meeting anyone any other way -- and I'm pretty sane and normal, not especially overweight, smart, educated, can cook, pretty much the whole deal. And I barely got any attention.

Maybe the problem isn't the women on the sites so much as the women who men pay attention to on the sites.
