As seen in a local shop. Would anyone reply to an ad on a card like this?

Dare say one would do better with genuine simple country folk like this than with the standard over-made-up online duckface.

In the modern world of online dating and Tinder, I find that very sweet.

I do too, I remember when you had to place an ad in the local paper.

Can you imagine what a card would look like from Council Baby? Or perhaps he might like to share a hypothetical one with us?

Good call!

I'd love to see that either from the man himself or an articulate follower.

In the days of newspaper ads, an old mate of mine used "mature man seeks younger lady for late night walks in the woods" with a lot of success.

That's a rough morning photo, I'd say. Username suggests she'll turn 42 this year?

Some women baffle me. (ok all)

Started messaging 2 on PoF on Saturday. A blonde and a brunette. Blonde starts off talkative but trails off by bedtime, a couple of replies yesterday, nothing today.

The brunette seemed more interested, and a good chat over Sat & Sun, she even gives me her phone number in her first message this morning saying to whatsapp her. So I message her when I get up, no reply till lunchtime as she says she's been in training sessions and she'll be in touch later. Nothing by 9pm, so I send a quick message to say I hope her day went ok...... nothing. Why give your number out if you have no intention of taking it further?! Mentalists.

"Hello guys

My name is XXXXXXXXXX and I am on here looking for Mr Wright. I am a mum of 3 beautiful children and They all have different fathers but don't worry about the baby daddy drama because none of them see there dad. After my bankruptcy I have turned a fresh leaf and I am looking for a lovely black man to settle down with and my kids can call dad, I split with my baby's father when I was pregnant and he doesn't no his dad so I want you to be my kids father and treat them like yours. I'm white on the outside and black inside, I can whine up my waste and booty, as good as a black woman. I can curry my mutton, jerk my chicken and nock up a good Saturday soup. I have been out, dated and met up with most of the black men from Birmingham on this site and from Birmingham generally so I need a man further a way, I do drive so it's not a problem but because of the kids I can't stay over. So out of town men preferbly lol. "


A keeper for sure...

I don't get that either, part of me thinks some of them like the attention, others have perhaps found someone else to talk to.

Things are going well for me and the girl I met on POF. We are now together .

It may be that they only use PoF when they are bored, it was certainly the way I played it. Being a shift worker meant if it was a night or a weekend I'd be sat in the office alone for twelve hours, so I'd be on PoF the whole time, messaging and chatting to people, it helped pass the time. When it came to going home or my days off, well I wouldn't be using it much as I'd be off doing other things, although if I had someone's number by then I'd continue to chat to them that way but at a reduced level. I've had a couple of women who would want to sit and text all sodding day, my life isn't exciting enough to have that much stuff to talk about constantly!

Only be concerned if she's not bothered to reply after a couple of days, could be she's off doing something interesting...

Same issue for me. Been on eharmony a week. Received about 10 'icebreakers' from women so far. I send a message and either get 1 reply and then silence; no reply; or 'this match has moved on'(blocked).

Not really understanding why they're prompting me to get in touch with them.

[big dub]

I had 2 missed WhatsApp calls from her this morning, so messaged back to apologise, she read that and didn't reply! WTF.....

[furtive]

Maybe she is at work and can't reply until the evening..

[big dub]

If that's true, surely she could have spared a minute to reply last night?
