Probably my favourite thread from EG, genuinely hilarious at times
It was pretty quiet the last few months but it’s got to come over to FG surely?

I believe he is now a pick up artist selling his ‘Spreadsheet Seduction: The Formula to Success’ programme, guaranteed based on years of ‘research’.

I have mixed feelings about those threads disappearing. On the one hand, it’s the deletion of an archive of my past life. On the other hand, it removes the evidence.

I'm glad Sharz found happiness but man alive, his spreadsheet based dating adventures were epic. It's not been the same since.
Can anyone with unusual opinions of/assumptions about women and a strong affinity for made up statistics please speak your brains.

Hmm... waiting for something to really go wrong.
Haven't been on a date since Feb. I gave up as after date after date I just never felt anything. Nice girls, but honestly I am now 42 and know what I want. Generally it is not worth trying to force anything. Tried a few times to make something happen, but honestly I have been hurt so much and am so jaded I literally can't be bothered unless she happens to be a rocker who loves bikes, backpacks, enjoys a beer etc. Then after 2 years of miserable dating found a girl who for the first time in years I genuinely was attracted to. And she didn't like me. So gave up.
Last week my brother moved to the coast, so I cam down to help him move etc. In the pub he convinced me to reinstall tinder. I set it up, 30 minutes later get a match. Start chatting. And this girl is too good to be true. Loves same obscure heavy metal bands, wants to backpack, loves motorbikes etc. I roll my eyes at this obvious catfish. Say let's meet tomorrow evening. (Yesterday)
Turned up at the pub she is gorgeous, funny, intelligent and genuinely has all my passions. Drinks, sat on the beach to watch fireworks, walked her home. I left her walking home in a daze.
2nd date tomorrow (I have extended my holiday to hang around) and I am picking her up on my motorbike to go for a spin and stop for a picnic.
To top it off I have had a spare motogp ticket for next weekend that I can't get rid of (I even offered it on the EG forum a while back). So despite being a first date I invited her to that (with many many many many explanations that I have had this ticket for ages, separate tents, I don't expect anything in return etc) and she is going to come along.
I just am in shock. I am just waiting for the downside, but I am just in such a good mood. Happiest I have been in years.
She is going to turn out to have a penis isn't she?

A degree of scepticism is only natural but it sounds like you've hit the jackpot. I think it's a good sign when a person is open to going to an event so early on.
I say enjoy it and try not to over think it too much.

Bro, good stuff. Enjoy man. She is probably on the Mumsnet Match.com Online Dating thread talking about this hot gamer nerd she met who she thinks is going to turn out to be the next Fred West.

I say enjoy it and try not to over think it too much. I spent a long time agonising over the ticket stuff. Must be pretty fucking creepy for a women getting offered a weekend away midway through first date. Bit genuinely have been trying to shift that ticket for ages. I think I went a bit overboard showing her my Facebook posts and I even showed her my post on EG offering it. ... ... ... Oh shit. That is where I fucked up. She is going to get on EG to see my post history now. Oh dear lord please let her not search there for 2 weeks... Thank god for sunsetting.

You're doing that overthinking thing.
Enjoy what you've had and how you feel right now. Forget the rest.
If she's the one for you, then if she actually did read anything on EG, she'd like you even more because of what she read.
I got internet checked by someone I was dating once and let's just say it was a warning that she wasn't anywhere near being "the one".
Relax, be yourself, be glad you've met someone and see what happens. Congrats.

As others have said you need to stop overthinking and second guessing. You start doing that and it's self sabotage all the way.

Delighted for you RyanDs, I'm sure it'll go well.
Please also let us know here how it goes, as we're all now living vicariously through you. Thanks

Yep, just enjoy it in the moment, don't get too far ahead of yourself and take each day/date as it comes.

You have a penis (I guess?) so why shouldn't she?
Anyway, good job RyanDS, just go in expecting a good time and nothing more and you'll be tied to a pipe in a basement somewhere in no time.

2nd date went well. She is a good passenger on the back of a motorbike which is an essential trait to look for in a woman. 2 hours of riding around the new forest with a nice pub lunch in between.
