I don't think he was a jerk. He worded it very nicely.

Alfredo, I already apologized and said I would never do it again. Considering there was nothing confidential in it, and it was over ONE date, and the guy is anonymous, who is going to know? Either way, I said i would never ever do it again and I never will.

Yes, I am a bad woman for doing this, and I hope I can be forgiven and improve myself...not repeating this is a good start, I think.

That letter was actually written to ME. I sent it to her to read and was surprised she felt he was being a big jerk about it.


Bad move, in my opinion.


who is going to know?

Honest and Decent.
I wish more men were like this. Though I do get a lot of honest guys telling me left and right "lose such and such and we can totally make this a relationship". I won't settle for that kind of stuff but at least they were being honest. Just jerks about it.
I'm with you on the friendzone bit as well. If you're only good enough to hang out with, the friendzone can sometimes be blurred when sexual tension comes into play. Worth it to cut ties before someone is used in the end.
All in all, this man seems genuine and a true sign that there are genuine thoughtful yet honest men that still exist. Your friend clearly hasn't had this type "honesty" so she doesn't know how to intepret it. Go with your gut on this one, he was honest and decent.

Losing "such and such" meaning losing weight?

Someone either digs you up front of that's it..you scram. In my thirties I put up with a guy who was just like that...there were things he didnt like about my body..like he didnt like larger breasts, for example.

Here, I'll just slice them off...hang on.

And he would comment on moles or body hair or skin color or any number of things, pick pick pick until there was nothing left. And he did NOT like to perform certain sex acts. Oye.

And I put up with this crap for two years. Then suddenly, one day, I woke up and the spell was broken. I was done.

Oh, just so you know, I had been friendzoned rather recently by a rather hot guy who liked his gals bigger..I didnt have a chance..he loved BBW black haired gals..and nothing else. So here I am, a blonde who is losing weight...yeah, another losing situation!

BTW I joined a hiking meet up group two years ago...this is a GREAT 'real life" way to meet guys and get into shape. I'm down to my college weight now and dropped two pant sizes. Also got a couple dates out of it and one three month summer affair which was the most "normal" situation I've had all this time.

Best choice I've made in two years!!!! :D

I see nothing wrong with the posting of the letter she got from the other guy. Everyone got his /her opinion. Some might not agree with what she did, Thats fine now you know for a fact you two won't make if on a date. See no reason why silver should apologize for posting it.. Its not as if she was bad mouthing the guy. Silver there is no reason you should apologize over and over for doing that. As for the letter it comes across as some one who gave his honest answer. Yes he could be a realy good player who knows how to pull the proper strings. Most of the time players don't go that far cause its too much work for very littler return. Meet ups are a good way to get out of the house and meet new people.

Honest and decent. Last night was my first date, want to hear Douchebaggery? Had an awesome night, flirty and all even a spark. Too bad the spark was in his pants and he kept attempting to sleep with me. First and last date from this site. Sorry to put my personal experience in here, I would rather an email going 'hey Maggie, I think you are kind of slutty and had a great night but just really want to sleep with you, because I am a womanizing jerk off'. That would have been honest and decent.

^^^ Maggie, you're a pretty woman but for some men, showing off your boobage in your pics makes them lose their minds and manners. Cover up those girls, and the d-baggery might not show up until the second date. LOL.

Also, putting your child in your pics is not a good idea due to online predators. Sad but true.

Yeah i'll probably take off the daughter pic and the boob kind of pic. The thing is, it was almost perfect until at the end of th e night he got really touchy feely. I had the spark, he just wanted to use and abuse me. Really aggravating.

Maggie, I tell everyone to stop online dating. I did, after two years of nonsense. I just posted in another forum that altho there are douchebags in "real life" and all sorts of problems people have, I really believe the percentage is higher here online. I strongly suggest joining a meetup group with people who share your interests, it's worked for me.

Regarding the boob thing..I don't show cleavage myself to keep things modest and it never helped anything. Still the attempts to get into the pants on the first date, even tho I've expressed clearly in my profile I am not after that. Alot of men completely disregard your feelings.


It's being online that's the problem. Delete your profile and be free, before it rots your brain!
