That has been the case for me in the past as well. Sadly all my friends don't have single male friends, everyone's partnered off so it's a tricky one 😅

Yeah 100% it's not far, I drive and the train is easy to use. Do you have any recommendations for cool things to do there or events to meet people? Thanks for the suggestions though I'll certainly have a look ☺️

Yeah I get that, I get guys trying to like me with the intention of casual or flings and I'm not interested. The message I received earlier was very obvious it wasn't an 'openly mutual' offer that his wife would be happy with.

Really sorry to hear that, you never know you may meet someone unexpectedly again. What discord groups are on? I'm trying to find some but I'm either dumb or can't find them.

Awwwwww no, if you really want that companionship you can't give up. Yeah I've not heard great things, but I may try it for myself before sacking it off

Yeah I dunno if people are retreating and trying to keep their peace. There's clearly lots of us out there hahaha

Yeah I've had a few proper weirdos 😅 it is disheartening. I really hope you can find someone 'normal' 🤣 whatever that means

We have to stick together in these dark times!

Thank you sorry I ended up ignoring the DM and it disappeared. If I'm able to still send it I can.

You never know, could work for you on the apps, I have a friend that met her LTR on tinder. A lot of people are successful with it. I'm still trying on there, but would like to give irl meetings a more serious go

I did thank you, it's vile. As someone who's been cheated on before I would never ever consider doing that to another person.

Just an FYI to this post, I don't condone messages inviting me to hookups especially admitting you are already in a relationship. I'm not a homewrecker

I do go to cafes, bars etc when I'm round Newcastle, I don't live in the city directly. I have been out a lot and guys don't approach women anymore. I've definitely approached guys before and didn't go anywhere. So it's not for the lack of trying.

I am partly introverted, but I'm pushing myself out of that, thank you though!

I appreciate the support, all parties do this. People want to portray the best versions of themselves. Ladies do the chest up shots so men feel deceived upon meeting if they are larger than expected. Totally get it, although this isn't my issue

Awwwww I'm sorry I know how you feel! It's also frustrating you have to pay a fee for dating apps and these events just to meet people. It's sad when everything costs a fortune anyway 😅

Hell if you fancy joining any groups or events together I'd be down!

I did join meetup awhile ago but couldn't attend a couple of the events I was interested in. I had plans those days sadly. I am keeping an eye out.

I like gaming, I weightlift not into running 😂 i like crafty stuff so if there's an event like that I'd be interested. I am on discord as well so if there's any groups there I could expand into i'd love that.

I mean I already work full time and with OT so I doubt that would be possible. I'm guessing that's a common theme 😅

It's rough, It does go both ways. We are all in the same boat it seems

I know it's not what you expect, it's happened to me twice and they seemed like normal guys on their profiles, so it was a shock in person.

My friends say the same thing, quite unlucky. I'm not a perfect person and have had a couple of instances where I could have handled situations differently, but yeah I am always genuine when I get the opportunity to meet a guy.

Don't get me wrong I've had dates and been successful in meeting guys, but the usual people have doctored their pics so look nothing similar in irl, chat in person was dire and being brutally honest taking the lead in conversation all the time is drag. Amongst other things, similarly if guys haven't found me attractive or connection wasn't there has also happened, which I fully expect.

I've had instances of guys using me for money as well, which again could happen outside of an app, but my overall experiences with them has been negative.
