I need a life/boyfriend/better job. They've cut hours at work = more time at home = more time on internet = more time talking to people on internet = me feeling lonely = me acting flirty = having the wrong sorts of conversations with the wrong people = giving guys the wrong impression

But hey, i'm going on a hen do tomorrow, and i'm the only singleton going, and my t-shirt states that so who know's what could happen!

wrong people? friends boyfriends/old pervs? I do wonder

[markeee]

Wrong people are ex boyfriends and guys who are definately mate rather than date material.

However i'm determined to have an ace time tomorrow is my 'lil miss single' t-shirt, tutu and legwarmers!

Ahhh ex boyfriends, schoolgirl error

Still a sad old singleton, sadder and older by the day! - met a nice girl, but it's a pain , text her asking about the weekend etc and 'are we still on for that drink then' she replies..but doesn't bother answering about going for a drink.....ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH - drives me maddd

[markeee]

Haha ^this happens all the time to me..... I have literally no idea what they mean by doing this. Are they playing hard to get or just being absent minded?

[Snufflebutt]

My problem is I always think 'what if i'd asked again, would it have worked out' bla bla bla - without wanting to pester/hassle and drive them away I just wonder what if!

[markeee]

I asked a girl from work out a few weeks ago, she said she was busy but it sounded that she still might be interested (I asked her on Facebook) Since then, she has talked more and more to me at work and has been (to my untrained eye) quite flirtacious. Yet I've asked her out a couple of times since and she hasnt replied.

Not gonna do this again. I'm leaving my current work to go travelling for a month so it wouldnt be a go-er anyway. But after I come back, i'll be going back to uni - new people, and perhaps new sexy young women.... Then again probably not.

[Snufflebutt]

LOL that girl I was talking about just messaged me back, weird that I was just talking about her....

Now not sure what to do. I'll be away for a month, after that she starts back at school(!) But she's a complete babe. Crud, finally a girl doesnt reject me, then I go away......

[markeee]

holw old are you both?! just when you mentioned school just wondered

arghh so annoying about this girl, can't win with girls like that if I don't ask im not interested if I do she ignores the question..if I keep asking its pestering

FML

lol

Ok right.

You- don't go out with the girl who's already massively pissing you off before you're even going out with her.

You- don't go out with school girls. You're 22.

[philipsteak]

Firstly there is nothing wrong with 22/17 age gap, I was 16 when I met my hubby him 22(and already separated with a child) and are still together 25 years later, its not age that matters its maturity and the individual person(and situation) which count, something which it seems some in this thread struggle with.

Secondly perhaps if face to face or perhaps phone communication took place rather than txt or facebook you could use your own judgement (based on facial expression or tone of voice)rather than waste time guessing what was meant. Eye contact is a very important tool of communication which is often lost in this world of technology.

I have a very mature 17 year old, but in no way is he grown up enough to have a relationship with a 22 year old, there are always exceptions but most girls at 17 are still children no matter how mature they think they are.

Also some girls might actually go in for the playing hard to get routine, but generally, if a girl is hard to get its because she doesnt want to get got, move on, life's too short to waste time on luke warm people. she sounds a bit vague to me.

though maybe this explains it? I do have a girlfriend at the mo who is working her way through the book on dating rules, and it says some crap about if a guy asks you out for the saturday night and he asks you after wednesday turn him down as he should respect you enough to give you more notice. What a load of shite! so maybe too many girls are reading this book?

I know for a fact that i felt very differently when i was 17 as i had a baby and got married to a guy of 26 at that age so i felt grown up and mature. (The marriage lasted 6 years) And i realise how patronising i sounded up there ^ not the intention i promise.

[sadwitch]

It's not so much the age gap it's that the gap straddles some serious maturing time. Don't know why someone would go after someone who still has homework and technically can't go to the pub etc. Plus 17 year old girls are mental. Fact.

[brighteyes]

The rule is: 'half your age plus 7'

22/2 = 11 +7 = 18. Really you should wait until you're 24 and she's 19.

But I guess she won't be quite as ripe by then
