I've turned into a serial date canceller. I lose interest and can't be bothered.
Does anyone else do this?
When I get bored I date other girls. I got bored of my ex girlfriend so decided to cheat. Her friend caught me out and told her. I denied until I realised it was her cousin I had been dating. Needless to say none of the girls talk to me now. What a bunch of fussy mairs. Does anyone else do this?

http://www.itv.com/jeremykyle/be-a-guestHeard back from her. She isn't up for another date as we didn't have anything in common...which to be fair is true. She likes festivals and getting drunk...I can't think of anything worse.
Still got me back dating again and found a lovely pub.

Sometimes you just need that wee ego boast. Put it behind you and move onto better things. Heard back from her. She isn't up for another date as we didn't have anything in common...which to be fair is true. She likes festivals and getting drunk...I can't think of anything worse.

I fail to see how getting told she doesn't want to see him again after a solitary date is an ego boost.
The fact that he went out and tried. Ge was able to agree a date with the girl all be it it never went well. Sometimes when you haven't been for one in a while it's good. I've had a fair few cock ups and learned from them. dumab said:

Not quite that I can't be bothered, but sometimes the 'reality' of a date over initial chats makes me ask myself if I'm really that interested or am I just looking for a date since it's been a while since I had one.Does anyone else do this?
I think, as I get older and have been single longer, I'm actually getting more picky, not less.

One that likes housework is a bonus.
Do they exist?
I've been doing the online dating thing for a while, using the apps like tinder & bumble mainly.
Every now and again I meet someone that I quite like but overall it seems like women have an abundance of choice and would have hedged their bets and have many more guys in their arsenal?
It all seems very competitive and unless you look like Channing Tatum, earn £500,000 and can somehow convince a girl to fall in love with 1 message then it's really quite hard.
Ranting aside I have met some cool women on there and for whatever reason we weren't right for each other, but this seems to happen in waves. There might be weeks of nothing and then suddenly a few come along.

Last part I agree with. Every now and again I meet someone that I quite like but overall it seems like women have an abundance of choice and would have hedged their bets and have many more guys in their arsenal?

I'm seeing someone from work on Saturday...not sure if its a date though...only us going (that I'm aware of anyway).

I didn't find it that bad. There certainly are women on there that are looking for that - I found it a bit of a shock going back on there after a several year break. But in fact, I wouldn't want to date them anyway so spending a bit more time on there showed me that there are plenty of normal girls too.Every now and again I meet someone that I quite like but overall it seems like women have an abundance of choice and would have hedged their bets and have many more guys in their arsenal?

The girls certainly do get plenty of attention, but the amount they are actually interested in is quite a lot less (I have a couple of female friends on there, and they despair at how hard it is to find somebody decent). I generally found that a lot of women wouldn't even answer your first approach, but once they did (as long as it didn't die out immediately) then a date usually followed and on average I had good results from that.
The only bit I didn't like was that sometimes I'd reach the point where it hadn't worked out with the people I was chatting to / met - and then you essentially had to start from scratch again, which just seemed like a lot of effort.
