Once is unfortunate.

Twice is unlucky.

Three times? Your filtering / due diligence processes might need refining.

It depends on

1) your definition of a fake/timewaster, and

2) your methods of selection.

We've only had one no show, And they were our first.

You'll soon develop better filters.

Good luck

A timewaster is someone who arranges a time and place for a meet and doesn't turn up.

You have had this happen to you 3 times in the 2 weeks you have been on here?

I would suggest you change your selection process.

I like to think everyone (and I mean everyone) is a fake. Then, if I do meet, it's a nice surprise.

Lots of people are genuine and won't waste your time but it very much depends on how you define those things. If after chatting for a while someone decides not to take things further I don't think that's time wasting but if someone leads you to believe they'll meet and then doesn't turn up it is in my book.

As a general rule if you think something is too good to be true it probably is.

Hope you have better luck in future.

Pontefract

i had a fake and he's into hacking peoples phones

i met him at a group meet

he mailed me later and claimed that he had set up a MMF meeting with a girl in Sheffield

when i asked for a pic he said that would send it to me on WhatsApp

i told him i didn't have it

the same thing happened when i asked for the address

he wanted to send to me by text so i gave him the number to my play phone

it never turned up, he claimed that he had sent it

it took an hour to get it out of him (it was the deal breaker)

i went to the meet this morning, knocked on the door, no one there

tried his phone, no answer and now i have been blocked and his phone is busy

he didn't get my Whatsapp id

It happens, though more to single guys because guys pretend to be women, whereas no one pretends to be a guy
