they don`t read.....only look at the pics.................


Correct. It doesnt really matter what you write because they look at your pic and decide they fancy you. They dont register anything else.

Firstly, hope it went well Labdien! Assume you've had the date and now we wait to find out if it was the lady of your dreams..

Wow Shabba, thought you'd gone very quiet lately, ho ho!!

A Touch of Fate says it all when she mentions all the good new friends I've made thanks to POF and I'll be helping her host an event soon which is a million times better than sitting alone on my sofa watching the box every evening!

But in answer to the OP... perhaps... early days as they say....

Been on the site on and off a couple of years, only seriously the last 4-5 months.

Spoke to a few women, most message, then dont respond further, or respond to mine then dont go any further! I had one that seamt to go well for 3 months but she kept putting off meeting up, and eventually decided it wasnt what she wanted, so it kinda almost happened but apart from that, still not really met anyone or had much luck sadly.

Only one above that almost happened was someone who initially messaged me, all ones where ive messaged, never go anywhere.

I dont just look at pictures either, i look further at the profile..

Is that the sort of thing you'd expect to be mentioned in profiles then? I didn't think it was that unusual a trait.

Thanks for asking. It was an enjoyable evening but let's just say that I still haven't found what I'm looking for.

Is posting an indicator that you are "looking" or just that you enjoy a good banter on the forums and have found your happy place, welcome to LaLa land

I am planning a Pagan wedding at the moment, so you could say I have found what I am looking for, but of course I didn't know I was looking for her until we met.
Plenty of Fish has to be seen as just another way of making first contact. I have said it before, but I often repeat myself (I blame the Alzheimers), too many people look at the picture and arrange a date based on that, only too find out that the very good looking 6ft 4 ultra right wing butcher has nothing in common with the very pretty 5ft 1 left wing vegan with the huge tîts he has gone on a date with.
I have been on here for almost 2 years, and during that time have met my best friend, who is also getting married to someone she met on a dating site, a lovely man and not her usual 6ft + Daniel Craig lookalike. I have also had dates with a few lovely young ladies, a few very beautiful young ladies and one lovely, sensual, beautiful and extremely seductive young lady from the midlands, who I thought was the one for me, but sadly she didn't fancy me one bit.
So, in summary, just like in any other walk of life, you might meet what you are looking for on here, or you might not, but it certainly extends the possibility of meeting someone right for you.

Well as I said in my previous post I found what I was looking for without really looking for it. But feck it I have lost it again due to outside influences. Although I am gutted I dont regret meeting him, I fell for him quite hard and it was lovely. Maybe I will be looking again sometime

I think that since I don't know what I am looking for, it would be pretty amazing if I found it

After an hour of searching.............I finally found my effin' keys!!!!

Now i can go out safe in the knowledge i wont have to kick the front door open just to get back indoors.

Someone convinced me recently that not all Women are the spawn of the devil. So i thought i'd try dating one again........

I must say, it's all going rather well so far. Although my pof time will drop massively, but that only affects myself, so my concern is minor

No, not had any dates yet and I've been on here, must be at least a year!
I know looks are not everything, but there has to be a degree of attraction/initial spark!!

Would love to know where I am going wrong!! :(

I've thought I have found what I'm looking for a
couple of times however I wasn't what they were looking for.

I think I may go and hand around Asda also in the womens lingerie section.

All I ever find in asda is bargains Ive yet to see a man walking about with a neon sign above his head saying " SINGLE MAN GOING FREE".
However what I have found dureing my time on POF is an insight into the male mind that I had never seen before. And suffice to say its not a very good insight but has spured me on to try to find the exception to the rule that must be out there somwhere.
Altho I have come to the realisation that I probely wont find him on line. They are not going to fancy me by seeing a still picture of me no matter what I put on my profile, they need to see me in action so to speak lol

I have on my profile, just the numpties do not bother to read it properly, just like the fact I mention an intelligent mind is a must...


I didn't think it was that unusual a trait.


Not for men, seemingly so for women...

Tis a sexist old world eh

Personally, I wouldn't have a problem even if a woman smoked a pipe, but it wouldn't occur to me to be that specific in my profile. There are probably more things I'm willing to accept than things I'm not, so it wouldn't be practical to list them all.

That's one of the many problems we have to deal with. Often, we are looking for specific things in others, yet not finding them because profile info is usually more general.

Is there anyone here that has actually met there partner through pof?

It's early days yet, but I have been spending a lot of time with a woman from here recently.

The first meet was about 9 hours long, the second 36 hours and the third was a little over 4 days.

Even the mutts get along.
