This one time... when I was newly single...I signed up for Plenty Of Fish. I met a guy online, we talked often, hit it off via text and phone, so we decided to meet for dinner. I should have known then that something was off...I paid for dinner and the tip AND we ended up going to a movie, which I also paid for. I stayed in town overnight but not with him, and he asked me to meet him for lunch the next day. We went to Wendy's and ate dollar menu items, which was fine, I am not a gold digger.... THEN while eating at a picnic table, he smiles sweetly and says he has a question for me..."do you like oral, because I am really hungry and Wendy didn't fill me up".

REALLY?

Wow sorry to hear that hun. I had one where the guy was sales pitching me to be a salesperson for Amway. I quickly ended that one.

This other time, when I tried POF again.... I thought I had learned to be more thorough with the screening process... I met a guy for coffee after texting and talking for over a month. I researched his story of divorce on case net to verify he was actually divorced.... (lesson learned the hard way on another date). In a 30 minute meet up he proceeded to disrespect the hospital I work at, the President, VP, and CEO of the hospital, and the nursing staff. I love where I work, so I was offended. I think he realized this, so we changed subjects and I learned we had mutual friends in common. He THEN started saying terrible things about my coworker's husband, as apparently they are business rivals. I sat through 30 minutes of his negativity and self deprecating behavior then excused myself when my daughter called. (Yes, prearranged bail out call...as I said, I learned a few things). I am in my car when he texts that he thought our first date went wonderful and he looked forward to the next one.... I simply texted no thank you, I have developed an allergy to negative people. His next words shan't be repeated....

after two dates, one guy told me that I needed to "put out" for our next date or he was gone. I said, "see ya"....UGH!

Classy! What a troll.

Bump

And.... yet another date on POF, this one led me to CLOSE my POF account afterwards....

Ran across a profile as I was preparing to delete my account, and it struck a chord with me as he talked about how he really wanted a woman in his life that could travel with him. He was a high ranking well paid businessman who had to travel for work and he wanted a companion for the drives to and from various locales. He was a fan of the outdoors and exploring area landmarks and Hiking trails. He hated flying, so he drove to various locations throughout the midwest. Oh and his ideal lady would be self sufficient, educated, able to support herself, and independent yet looking for a long term commitment. His profile met my filter requirements of divorced, over 6 foot tall (to accommodate for the 2 inch height slight) college educated, non smoker, with no children at home, and looking for a relationship. I responded that he really needed a puppy, because he was essentially asking for a lap dog companion who was willing to give up everything in life just to be his travel companion but reap no benefits. Apparently my snarkiness appealed to him. We hit it off beautifully.

We talked into the night for weeks on end, emailed, shared pictures, went on entertaining dates when he was in town, and planned a wonderful romantic weekend in Missouri wine country. "Two rooms though, just so no pressure...." this was for two wonderful months..... until the romantic wine weekend in Hermann and two bottles of wine later, he referred to his ex as his WIFE.... yep, guys and gals....HE WAS MARRIED.

Lesson... even if their divorce story sounds completely convincing and legit, check casenet.

I was crushed. And thankful we had separate rooms.

I believe in God and she made me believe she did also then after the date. We were I guess kissing or so and then she told me she actually worshiped satan. It was quite awkward afterwards.

Lol I have had quite a few. I have met guys with weird fetishes, including dating a black girl as a fetish. one guy wanted to play slave/master in reversal roles; he was the slave I was the master. One guy took me to McDonald's on a date for ice cream and than got angry when I wouldn't go home with him.

Wow mcdonalds for ice cream! I though that was only in movies

The guy that wanted me to pee on him . . . . (I didn't)

Yeah I'm seeing the Pof trend. Bout ready to dump the POF one I have now cuz he wants to marry me asap.

Hm... Something definitely 'fishy' with POF

I was dating a guy I met online for 9 months. Suddenly he reveals that his parents hooked him up with a girl form his country and he's been skyping her for a year. AND he HAS to marry her because his mom says so.

Ah! playing the old I "I come from a diferent culture, and you just don't get it" card.

Met my husband on OkCupid.

They're not all bad.
