I tried it on a 'friend' ,with whom I'd shared a brief dalliance. Well, I'm still single so clearly it didn't work on him but might be worth a try on the wider male population....maybe!

Well Daisy after reading your blogs, you have inspired me (and that is an emotion I haven't had for a while.......so there is hope for you yet!!) to share one of my internet dating experiences.
ReplyDeleteI started 6 months ago, full of hope, anticipation and excitement...a new beginning...after all this was the new way to meet people wasn't it?
And at the start, it was all very encouraging, lots of views from ladies, requests to find out more.....my confidence was growing by the minute. I couldn't believe it, I would select my search criteria and "bingo" 357 women instantly available within a 10 mile radius....this was going to be a piece of cake wasn't it?
WRONG!!! why don't women reply to my requests to chat? its not like I have two heads. What happened to common courtesy....even a "sorry but you are not the one for me" would have done.
So with time running out on my membership and a week left on the site, I decided to change tack and alter my approach. So instead of the stealthy, carefully targeted sniper, stalking the long grass with a personalised individual message, I decided the scatter-gun approach of sending one message giving vent to my feelings and frustrations simultaneously to all women within my search criteria might find "The One".......
WRONG AGAIN!!!.....but perhaps not the way I had imagined it. I had deliberately kept my expectations low but was completely blown away with a flood of messages...literally hundreds from women all over the country. I quickly decided I had to reply to them all...after all wasn't I the one who was complaining about ladies not replying to me?? It was the least I could do.
By far the majority were supportive, which helped to restore my faith in human nature (and women). Only 3 were shall we say "blunt" and they blocked me from replying!! It would be nice to say that amongst those 228 replies I did find someone........but I didn't. Still, you have to learn from the experience......NEXT!!
PS. It was a close run thing but I did answer them all before the membership ran out......
Hi Toffee!
DeleteGlad I'm not the only one experiencing this mad paralell universe and, I know the madness is not limited to the male species.. so it's good to hear it from the other side!
Sorry though, that you're 228 down and still looking...it's only been 6 months though! That's a mere blink of the eye in Internet dating terms...keep the faith!
Daisy
