brok3npromise Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 I met this guy through OLD a few months ago. We went out on two dates and nothing really ever can of it. I haven't seen him in about 2 months and yesterday he text me asking me to be his girlfriend. Is there something wrong with men on OLD sites? Does anyone else find this weird? What would you do?
smackie9 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 I wouldn't respond. I have a feeling the message was meant for someone else. If it was meant for you, DO NOT RESPOND. Why would you when you haven't heard from him for two bloody months. Being asked to be exclusive after 2 dates would make me weary. 1
HappyLove Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 "Is there something wrong with men on OLD sites?" YES! A lot of weirdos online.

But if it was...2 dates does not a relationship make. I think it's really weird that he hasn't been in touch with you for 2 months. Please don't message him back. Yikes. "Is there something wrong with men on OLD sites?" YES! A lot of weirdos online. Haha! I totally agree with you HappyLove! Ever since OLD came into the dating scene it's really messed up the way people meet and date each other. Too much can go wrong. It's just not worth the headache and misery. 2
aprilisi Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 That is weird. I wouldn't respond. You have moved on.
ExpatInItaly Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Yes, it's weird. You already know that. Don't respond to him.
babycakees Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Oh geez. Why are there so many weird guys on OLD?!? 2 months since you last saw him? What ended the communication? Why hasn't he asked you on a date? This guy is littered with red flags.
FitChick Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Some woman probably dumped him so he's going back through his list.
Dallers Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 There must be twice as many men weirdos as women weirdos..... Which means I totally feel sorry for all the ladies on OLD lol :/
Author brok3npromise Posted July 6, 2014 Author Posted July 6, 2014 So I shouldnt go out with this guy at all then? :/
babycakees Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 OP....You can do what you want to, but I wouldn't give this idiot the time of day! I can't believe you are even considering it. LOL
ExpatInItaly Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 So I shouldnt go out with this guy at all then? :/ No, you shouldn't. Why on earth would you?

Why hasn't he asked you on a date? This guy is littered with red flags. The communication didn't ever actually stop between us. We've been communicating by text. I just haven't been out with him in over 2 months. He doesnt have a job at the moment and his dad is pretty sick. I'm not sure why he would ask me to be his gf.
truth_seeker Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Have some fun with it. Respond with: "Girlfriend? We're already married! Remember our honeymoon in the Virgin Islands?" 1
Mo_Do Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 2 months is nothing - I had one text me after 4 months 2 weeks ago :eek: The same week I had another that I hadn't seen in 1 month. They won't be the last I am assuming either considering I've been out with almost 30 girls since March.
mortensorchid Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Some woman dumped him or rejected him, now he's wanting to rebound. Don't respond. I got calls from some guy who I met on OLD who I never met face to face every few months on my voice mail. Once I picked up the phone and it was him he said he wanted to meet, I said "No thank you". He asked, rather angry with me "Why not?". I said "You'll understand." And hung up. Don't respond to him. If he tries again, simply text back "No thank you."
Lipitor11 Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 There's something fishy going on there. Maybe he texted the wrong person and he's just weird.
ChessPieceFace Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Is there something wrong with men on OLD sites? There's something wrong with everyone. There's more things wrong with everyone on OLD sites. I've heard of this a lot -- guys on OLD who don't understand progression, boundaries and whatever else. He's living in some kind of fantasy inside his mind and basing things on that. Just try to let him down easy (since he's nuts) and move on.

They won't be the last I am assuming either considering I've been out with almost 30 girls since March. The way things are nowadays, people like to be collectors and have options available at their fingertips. You get a number, you meet someone, nothing happens, but 6-8 weeks down the road, you both happen to be bored and available... you hook up and maybe never see each other again, or maybe you do 2-3 months later. This is the world we now live in...
truth_seeker Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 There's something wrong with everyone. There's more things wrong with everyone on OLD sites. True. I tried OLD because of my age, and I don't have many other options (work on my own, most of my friends are married or committed to someone). OLD was, I guess you could say, a necessary evil. I do know some people who have met their significant others on OLD and they encouraged me to do it... but the times I've explored it, I've come away disappointed or freaked out by some of the crazies I've encountered. I really wish I grew up in a different generation.
