My son (the one mentioned above) has had a string of stunning girlfriends (from wealthy families) from the age of 14. Looks and money are top of the agenda, it seems. He's played the field a fair bit too, resulting in one or two notable showdowns with me. So it's unlikely that any marriage will be for keeps. The best I can hope for is that he waits for a long time before he makes any commitment. He doesn't function well at all without a girlfriend.
He sounds like a top bloke and quite a catch. He needs to watch out for "an accident" in the contraception department.

Hi, stop telling your family you've met a woman. Just come out and say it's me. I promise not to wear the chaps when we go round.

Emotional range of a spoon laugh

Thing is, I'm not exactly being super fussy. I'm open minded, easy going, and looking for someone I'm attracted to. I don't have a set 'type'. I just want that spark.

The other thing I've found most common, is when trying to engage conversation, I'm asking questions and trying to be open to get to know them. But when all I get back is responses to my questions, and it's all one way. COME ON, WORK WITH ME HERE FFS.

However, I did have one girl ask me how open minded I am. And whether I would be comfortable with my gf peeing in front of me in the shower.... That was about 6-7 messages in laugh

Then a few more later, she asked my opinion on fisting. Hilarious.

It's been a real eye opener.
I think you're doing it wrong.....!!

I think the answer to that would depend a lot on whether he is giving or receiving!

Ill use myself as an example;
Met this great girl, got along well with, 2nd date agreed within the 1st date pretty much, lots of chat after, roll onto date day (last Friday) and she goes cold claiming shes ill and then communication effectively stops. Cue me questioning what could have gone wrong (as mentioned above),
She didn't like you (enough) and (for whatever reason) felt unable to communicate this to you so tried to disentangle herself afterwards, eventually succeeding.
it's simpler than that - she found someone better. The amount of guys that spend hours and hours trying to figure out the mystery of the amazing girl that they clicked so well with but they just disappeared and they'll devote their life to finding her again because she's there waiting and it was all just a tragic mistake that they fell out of touch... come on guys FFS.
Or people could be human and stop ghosting each other rather than just saying "Sorry but I'm not interested"...

Guys are just as bad a girls at this.
they could, but they won't. No-one said that was a gender-specific thing, but women seem to get the message whereas men appear not to.

Not all do, it can vary person to person and i guess how much one likes the other or is fussed

Precisely this, it's an unfortunate part of modern Internet dating. Shouldn't be, but it is. You either have to accept that's part of it, or don't do it.

I have been avoiding this thread all week as I thought it would be full of the usual nonsense.

I gave in tonight. Holy st. It's like the worst of mumsnet in parts although I particularly loved the lad taking out all his cash to hide his net worth when he divorces his mum.

I am glad there are still a number of normals left on here though.

feminists anti-fat-shamers... just go read the Internet or something. Tumblr. It should be clear there, although you may not get that many words of one syllable.
yeah...moving on
because you realised you didn't understand something about the world and now you feel stupid?
No.

I replied in length but there is obviously no point - so I have deleted it

You're furious about imagined persecution and no amount of reasoning will change your mind
