Also, I recently deleted my POF account...a few days later I wanted to make a new one just to try out a few new pics etc, but it won't let me register. Anyone have any experience with this? No matter what username I try (I even put in a bunch of nonsensical letters like daaskjdgha) it tells me that the username is taken and to try again.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Tinder is hilarious. I haven't been in this thread in a while, are people talking about it?

Is Tinder not available for the Android?

What do you guys think of mentioning that you just ended a three year relationship front and centre in your profile?

On kind of the same topic, should you mention you are divorced in your profile?

My ex wife is on her way over to "pick up some things"

Which is code for "hoagie is about to make some really bad choices"

How could that possibly be helpful? What is the purpose of including that info right up front?

disaster

There's tons. Enjoy and gl.

Hahaha, I honestly thought it was a genius idea at the time, but thinking about it now + results = terrible idea. Nonetheless I'm happy as balls where I'm at right now so IDGAF lol.

Terrible.

Not as bad. All depends on how/why you say it I guess. Upshot is that some women who are divorced want to be with a man who they can relate to (i.e., is divorced), so this can be a reason why you post it. If you aren't interested in divorced women, then don't post it.

I misread his post and thought it was the intro on his profile!

I went on a date with a girl who it turned out was divorced. At first I felt a little duped that she hadn't mentioned it, but then I realised n.b.d (and to her credit she mentioned it fairly early in the date), and judgemental me would have been less likely to go on a date with her if I knew. I'd just leave it, it's not like you not mentioning that you have a child.

She just messaged again, asking how my day is going.

I don't want to ask her out because she cancelled friday's date saying she's got so much going on with work blah blah, and I figured it should be on her to say "hey I'm finally done what's your schedule" or something.

Or should I just ask if she wants to hang out next weekend?

I think moving the convo away from texts and to a real date > just texting how your day was. Seems like she's probably seeing a couple guys and wants to keep you around just in case, so it's up to you if you care enough. I wouldn't cancel any kinds of plans to see her but if I didn't have anything going on and a date worked out schedule wise seems low risk high reward

Agree, just ask her out

"blah blah blah about her night and day today...so I'm free next Sunday night OR wednesday evening after 9 for a short date. What do you think?"

for whatever it's worth, she did mention during our date that things were about to get a bit crazy for her with work and some exam....so there's a (small) chance she's not just dating 5 other guys and is being honest.

Lazer makes a good point. I think giving a woman a choice of two nights is a pro move. Don't offer three nights tho.

lol......she wrote that text not me. In response to asking her how the work **** was going to be panning out this week

Seems reasonable and yeah I like the 2 times offer especially if you believe she's just really busy.

In that case I'd probably take the short Wednesday date, see if there's anything there, and go from there

Insta snap up the Wednesday or get rid of her. It seems like she is busy/boring as ****, so it would take a lot for me to pursue.

Is she hot? Does she have a good job? What qualities attract you to her? I can't remember the background story. You've been on one date?

I can't do Wednesday anyway and I think sunday night dates are stupid (partially because I wake up very early monday mornings). I'll just tell her I'm supposed to do xyz sunday night but if it changes we can go out then (with the intention of saying I can't make it sunday later in the week unless I get the sense she's being genuine), but in the meantime if she frees up another night to let me know

She's gorgeous, good career, we got along incredibly well on the date...I like a lot about her other than the feeling I'm (now) getting that she's seeing a bunch of guys as well. Not that she's not allowed to, but she was pretty clear about not being the kind to date more than one person at a time, so if she lied it's obviously a bad sign. I'll quote the TR, hold on:

had a first date with a girl from OKC who expressed serious reservations about online dating...I first got her number over 2 weeks ago but she went to the states to visit her bro, timing blah blah....met her at her building and it was a torrential downpour (Toronto, for anyone following the news). Told her to bring down an umbrella, and right away she's holding my arm underneath. Looked good in pics- great in person. We had dinner + a bottle of wine near her place, then went to play pool and have another drink somewhere we were the only two people. Walked her back to her place and had a (very) mini makeout outside. She went in, and I watched to see if she'd look back before she got in the elevator...bam! Earlier when I asked her when I'd see her again (wouldn't normally, but I was a bit tipsy) she said she's got a crazy week because of work stuff but we'd go out soon. All in all lots of good vibes, but given that I think she's VERY conservative sexually before she's serious with someone, what do people recommend for next steps? It's easy when you don't really care, tougher when you really do. 15 min post date she texted "hope you're ok to drive...I know I wouldn't be! Thank you for such a nice evening"...I made a joke about her not driving and said you're welcome, thanks for being a great date, or something like that...she responded with get home safe, talk soon.


That was monday...wednesday I followed up with a text, she insta responded, kept conversing, made plans for friday night...she initiated the next day too, we were chatting on and off throughout the day and then at night she told me she couldnt go out friday because such a busy week is coming up but she had a really nice time and wants to see me again soon when she can breathe (her words, not mine). I think there are a lot of signs that she could be genuinely busy and is being honest, but what changed from thursday morning to thursday night to cancel a friday night date? She initiated texts again last night and this afternoon. Maybe I'm just frustrated because I hate scheduling dates that far in advance (next sunday for example) with someone I've already gone out with.

Do sunday if you like her dude far out. If you want to see her go see her. Just do it early Sunday evening.

Girl I was in touch with on Match, texted a lot, but I ended up flaking on a date and she proved elusive after that. I text her a wink about a week after the initial thread and no response (I know, I think I was drunk...) Now I find her on OKC and she has an extra couple of pictures up.. and she is HOT, like almost a 9 and I hadn't realised due to some mediocre quality pics when she was on Match. I message her and she responds with

Mm not much to report. Got my ear pierced today, guess that's pretty eventful. Loving the sun and struggling with the concept of having to sit in an office all day tomorrow.

You?

I feel like I should just ask her out seeing as we had a successful text thread, but it was a while ago, and she has been on the website for a long time, which always makes me think she is one of those hot girls who just never settles for anyone.

so, girl i messaged last week who responded positively about getting a drink this coming week just texted me "hey would you wanna go see the heat with my sister, we can get dinner beforehand wherever you recommend"

her sister is my friends gf (just to job anyones memory), and they live together. still gotta go, right? think i need a wingman?

Can your friend whose GF it is not make it? I think bringing any other friend would make it awkward.

Either way I picture it being a really strange date if your friend doesn't go... hard to escalate when not only is there a third wheel, but the third wheel is her sister even if you've already met her. I think it would be different if you had already gone on a few dates with her 1 on 1.
