When I first started this a few months ago I guess I was better at picking them. Now I understand why so many people complain about time wasters as I am meeting them all, or not as the case may be!
The most comedy value part of this is that 2 of these guys state on their profile that they aren't looking for time wasters! I was going to give them a chance as they are new to the site and had no veris but think I won't give a newbie a chance again!
So tell me, how do I find the guys who won't flake?

did you speak to them on the phone, meet socially first?
how long had they been on the site?
what was the conversation like, was it describe yourself, what will you wear, what will we do... mostly, not all just wank fodder
good luck for the future |

Same in all areas babes and just need to them out as some good gen ones in between them. I had one yesterday who failed to turn up after recieving address then mailed 8 hours later to say he understands he will only get one more chance before he may get blocked!!!! lol yeah right.
Thankfully I had a gen meet in his place so his loss in my _iew xx |

"It was social meets the guys cancelled! I assume they just realised they weren't going to get anything out of me and decided it wasn't worth it - their loss I guess! "
this is what makes me laugh the most, men will meet and fuck yet a social scares the shit out of them LOL |

Unfortunately guys like them make it hard for the rest of us genuine guys to get meets
Such a waste of time I believe there should be a name and shame page |

I seem to have lost my 'idiot radar' too. I had a couple of no shows when I first joined and got some great advice from the forums so then had great meets, but lately I've struggled and had a no show last weekend.
There is one poster on the forums who stated that you should always meet locally to you so if they don't turn up then you've not had far to go, and that one has helped me because I don't mind sitting in my local with a book while waiting. If they want me to travel then I won't budge without their phone number. |

Yeah I always stay local, easier escape route and feel much more at ease.
These guys have at least cancelled (all be it at the last minute) but still a big let down |

if i meet socially which 9-10 i do i meet in a place i feel safe in which is well lit and i can walk in and out and feel safe
Birmingham is lucky as there is a few coffee shops and good bars, but i wont drink now on socials as people tend to read more into it than often could be the case
i have walked away from socials if i felt not at ease and explained that they arent for me which has been fine

Well if theyve cancelled for whatever reason but let you know then it hardly seems fair to name and shame them does it?
I think theres always peaks and troughs on here. Youre having a trough by the look of it, but just think how good the peak might be...  |

Well I thought the exact same thing. And if they hadn't just vanished after cancelling at the last minute then I would be disappointed but totally understand - we all have lives!
The fact that they go AWOL straight after, and left it too late to really make other plans, is what annoyed me.
I think the latest one was just the last straw - needed my little rant! |

have been let down a few times.
always a bit wary of men with no verifications, though a few have turned up and been ok. met one the other day.
a newbie no verifications, he turned up on time. he did have a picture of himself in bed with a woman though.
we spoke on the phone first. |

We had a meet advertised for Friday and we thought we had a good idiot radar. We only picked guys with verifications, ones that had contacted us and ones who said they fed up of time wasters. out of 40 replies they all fell by the wayside once we started asking for mobile numbers to arrange etc. Usual excuses. "forgot i got pick the kids up" "I forgot I was working" "I havnt got any transport".
We had a few that we had conversations with were very keen but suddenly stopped replying or blocked us!!!
No wonder single guys have got such a bad reputation on here.
Having said that we did get a very nice guy who we contacted and turned up with 30 mins notice |

Get to know them online first. Talk to them on Fab, MSN Messenger, Skype etc. See if they are willing to put effort in getting to know you or just want a quick shag. You can soon spot the time wasters and picture hunters if you get to know them online first. |
