STOOD UP by a P.O.F. MEMBER Posted: 10/12/2008 5:39:33 PM
A person that stands you up has no consideration for you, period! And then there are those that seem sincere, and yoususpect that they never have intentions of meeting you, they just want the thrill of chatting! I recently had the same experience and I think this guy does it quite often. He emails you, chats for hours (although he avoids the phone) and tells you all about his maroon 'Vette, the trucking co. he sold and how he has all these toys, freedom, etc.... And all that is missing is a good woman he wants to love and spoil, etc.... Then he makes a date. But the day of the date, delays keep happening. First it is: "just got back from the bank, need a shower, waiting on an important call. Give me a while, and I'll let you know when to leave". So I wait a while for him to contact about when to leave for your date. Then it is: "I lost my cell phone and couldn't call you....was out looking for it". (But he had a neighbor over there and could use THAT cell phone to try to track down his?) How strange... no pay phones in Denton that work??? Then I hear "I have to go get a new phone, will only take me an hour". THEN I'll call you and we can get together." By that time, I decided to take control of my own evening. I sent him a message that said: "I have waited the hour you asked for, and now I'm out the door on my own....looking good and I am sure there is something I can do for fun tonight!" When I got home, he was online and waited for me to log into Yahoo and POF, then blocked me, LMAO! He also changed his profile, and the first part is complaining about women that are players??? THE VERY NEXT DAY, he contacts a friend of mine, and sent her the EXACT same introductory email, and they chatted back and forth ,too. He was COPY/PASTING all his statements and information, and she and I are comparing notes the whole time! This is one date I am glad I missed out on! And while he is still sitting home, picking out the next female he's going to scam, my friend and I are having a good laugh, and I had a great weekend regardless. That fool will never know all about the TWO great women he didn't have the decency to meet!

PICS of POF 5 Year Anniversary Part at WW Fairfields, Aug 23, 2008 Posted: 8/24/2008 8:02:32 PM
Last night was my first POF party. A girlfriend came along, and says she's going to join, too. We both had a good time. Kudos to the hostesses, you planned a fun event!

New Winks and Points. Posted: 4/17/2007 5:08:31 PM
The winks would be a good way to show interest, and I like the idea of sending an auto-response to politely either "wink back" or say "sorry, not interested". The point system is way too much to deal with, and what's the point of it? I agree, it could easily turn into a popularity contest, and who needs that? Giving a user more roses per month gets my vote, maybe one per week, instead of 2 per month?
