spanishchick00 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 A few weeks ago, I met up with this guy on OKC, during our first meeting, I asked him why he joined OKC, he just that he just moved to the city and was looking to meet new people. His profile said that was just looking to make "new friends." There was nothing romantic or flirtatious on our first meeting. I never heard back from him. A few hours ago, I was browsing plenty of fish, and saw his profile-it said that he was new to the city and that he was "looking for a relationship." Also, his headline on plenty of fish was, "I'm more fun than your EX." I was like wth? Ugh. This makes me hate OLD dating even more. I will never do OLD again.
TB Rhine Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Why in the world would ANYONE use a dating site to look for "friends"? This is just a lame excuse women sometimes use when they're trying to discourage guys from coming on too strong in the beginning, or when they're already in a relationship and just hanging around OkC (or wherever) because they like the attention.
Author spanishchick00 Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 It's a lame excuse for the guy to tell me he was looking to make new friends in the area. I told him I was using it for dating. Duh.
mortensorchid Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I came across a profile on POF, this guy said he was married and he was looking to meet new friends. I was blown away as well, who does he think he's kidding? I found it strange to say the least, and I also wondered who would respond to it. I think you can just put this under an experience you had, now you're older and wiser about it. I for one never have responded to anyone saying they are looking for friends on a dating website, because they aren't as cool as you think they are by any means.
Country_Girl Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I think people that do that, do so as a way out. That way, if they're not attracted, they can pull the " I was just looking for friends anyway " card. He probably wasn't getting very many replies going the friendship route, hence, why he changed the profile. Because honestly, people use sites like MeetUp when looking for friends, not a dating site. Oh and the line about "I'm more fun than your Ex" is an over used line. I've come across it numerous times. Be thankful your not dating this guy, he can't even come up with his own material. Another famous line is "I'm here because I got kicked of blackpeoplemeet". OP, don't be offended by his behavior, he's probably a player. If u did meet him for the purpose of friendship, I suggest MeetUp, that way u can find someone you share common interests with.
SomeDude16 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Maybe he was just diversifying his portfolio?? Different approaches on different sites...
somedude81 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 "New friends" has always meant "new friends to have sex with, without being in a relationship." 2
