Shocked and Rocked!! (59)
annaroach: I think you are right, you get a nice image in your head , based on what they portray,, and as you said, when they let that slip, shock, horror, you don't know this new person,, at least i'm not too old to learn, thankfully.,, Thank's
None of us are ever too old to learn,we are learning all the time..if we didn't learn,then we would have problems...in a few days or a week you will realise it's the image in your head that tricked you and that you are better off without a person like this in your life.
Online dating is an eye opener of what people are really like.

The reference of not being too old came from me being told that i was an old pensioner
which was funny, thankfully i have a few more years to go for that, sad when someone doesn't know when the pension kicks in.The images in my head will vanish overnight, at least i gave a chance, until proven wrong!

If that's what he said to you you are best off without him!!.
A guy once said that he couldn't date me cos I was a granny!!
I was 40 at the time...he's living at home with his mother now and still single

That was not a nice thing to say to you.
Strange way of thinking, another thing we have to think about is
if they live in a real or imaginary world.
You would nearly have to be a phychatrist to date there days.

God. That's scary.
jimgi: God. That's scary.
What's scary about it? If you were hiring someone for a job or applying for a job,references would be required would they not.

Hi Polly,
I've no interest or desire in turning this in to another spat on the forums so it's one you'll have to figure out for yourself.
I would say though - stand outside & look back in.
What would you feel if you found out that your potential new friend/partner/whatever started to round up all your ex'es for a lynch mob?
Ex'es become that for a reason - irrespective of who's wrong.
Ladies are seldom guilty
Just out of curiosity - was this sharing of knowledge before,during or after a relationship?

I really don't mind anybody checking me out
I'm sure there are some reading this that have said 'id wish someone had told me about him/her
...
How many times have people cheated & friends knew and said nothing until after it was found out?
What about abusive people? I for one don't wish to get involved with someone that is physically abusive.
So I check them out
In answer to your question i check if my gut kicks in,i never ignore my gut
that is usually before or shortly after meeting..not point checking after 
you don't close the gate when the horse has bolted!
annaroach: Can't really say
Then why post up about it if ya cant really say??
It cant actually help others unless you're prepared to sayannaroach: Just a warning to you ladies on here,
Beware of dual personalities!!
Beware of dual personalities!!
Oh look,now your bursting to say,but still dont really want to say completely because??
PRETTYPOLLY1: Hi Witty,
The ol' gut feeling...best to be safe than sorry.
I have been contacted myself about an ex,i didn't run him down,he had faults,i have them too but it didn't make him a bad person..he cheated on me and I said this..but then it's their choice to get involved or not..

Hi Polly, always better safe than sorry, especially if one's gut feeling is saying something is not right, and especially if safety is involved.
PRETTYPOLLY1: If you take my post as an insult that is entirely your choice,i was using the job application as an example..I could have used the example of buying a second hand car,you're going check it out surely before you decide to buy it??
I am fully aware it's a two way street,i was speaking from my own personal experience,i think I am entitled to speak about that if I wish to.I am also very aware that men are checking women out for whatever reasons,im not a nun
As regards the question of men being desperate...I never said they were or they wernt..it's you that brought that into it.
So sunshine,my experience and my opinions are mine and I will share them if I choose to,as I said before if you take insult to it that's your choice

Your opinions are yours and you are entitled to say what you feel. There's no need for you to mention that...that's a given.
But 3 people have been questioning your "shopping" tactics and it shows a certain type of personality.
You know what, I never thought about a relationship being likened to buying a second hand car but I know what you mean. Next time I meet a woman I'm interested in, I must ask her how's the old gearbox and does it need much oil
KNenagh: I think it's an Irish thing as everyone here knows everybody and it is entirely normal to "quiz" someone about where they are from, their family, what's their job and where do they live (own house ) etc.
It's not normal everywhere else (I find some of the questions VERY nosy) and it wouldn't even occur to me to asked an ex (as I'm not prone to local gossip, I wouldn't know any ex anyway).
I think taking my time to get to know someone is the best way of establishing if someone is ok and if I actually did that, I haven't gone wrong with that.

Well said Kay
As Clint Eastwood and Eli Wallach kept quoting to each other in a famous film....There are two types of people in this world my friend.. those with loaded guns and those who dig, you dig..
Or....there are two types of spurs my friend, those that come in by the door and those that come in by the window...
It's nice to know that there are ladies like you out there who are not prone to gossip

My 'shopping' tactics are mine....I rather be safe than sorry,i do not feel the need to always use these 'shopping'tactics as my gut feeling would be good about a person and has prooved right..
As for the car needing oil
Let us know how you get on when you ask her
sirLarryIII: Oh look,now your bursting to say,but still dont really want to say completely because??
Tell me what you are assuming??
1. Isn't it against the rules to name and shame??
If i did this, i would be banned, and i will only go when i am ready
2. Maybe i was threatened !!!!!
3. Maybe i am a very decent person, and wouldn't !!
I am not bursting to say !!
sirLarryIII: Then why post up about it if ya cant really say?? It cant actually help others unless you're prepared to say
Look at it this way, why do the police warn people to slow down on the roads, and not to drink and drive!!
Don't people know that is dangerous already
It is just to remind the women on here to be vigilant
as there are some street angels and house devils!! if you get my drift!!
In conclusion, and on reflection, after the very sad news lately
of that family of 5 R.I.P.
As i said previously i never initiate arguments knowingly,
but i do react to it if it is directed at me, and i will always defend myself to the bitter end. which i did in this case.
I was thinking about in the last while and thought ,what if i was someone he took out his pent up feelings on , the person that was available to him
when he couldn't keep it in anymore.
If that was the case i am happy that i was able to help,i mean this sincerely, and maybe he felt better after he vented his anger , as i really think that i was not the real person that he was angry with.
As men don't chat about things that bother them as much as us women
But now i have lost someone that i thought of as a friend, as he has closed all lines of communication with me.
I still think it is good to chat in any form that might help relieve pent up tension/ feelings and even though he has made me sad, i still think that he is a good man.
I don't regret putting this thread up. if it helps men to try at least, to
talk about things that bother them to someone, don't let it go too far.
