No, it's a reasonable thing for you to have done in the circumstances. Different if you'd said 'flock wallpaper!' and turned and walked.

No you're not old fashioned at all, you have good morals and good standards.

I totally respect you for walking away, I'm sure most people would of done the same. Only desperate people would of hung around.

Not at all.

We can't accomodate for that very reason. And even though the boys stay with their gran & papa on a Sat night, we also have an 18 year old who comes and goes as she pleases.

Good on you x

You did the right thing. I won't play if I knew kids are in the gaffe; even if they were sleeping unless it's 1-2-1.

they were newbies so they're waiting for pics to be approved but as I can't view their profile now I can't answer that but they did answer to the names I was given

Starting to sound like this should be in stories/ fantasies then. Lack of communication on your behalf aswell, wouldn't do any meet unless it was concrete. If you fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

I don't know but it's funny how I'm now blocked a genuine couple would surely apologise or ask why I walked away I know if someone came to my door I'd arranged to meet and walked away I'd be curious as to why and then I would block them to save us having contact again

im very switched on im no newbie but I'm always willing to give people the benefit of the doubt as a single guy I know how hard it is to get local meets and as a couple i know how hard it is too sometimes u just got to go for it and this time it was a fail but that doesn't mean that every newbie is going to be like this

So you went to meet someone you'd never seen a picture of? And who wouldn't give you their number? But did give you their address?

And non of that rang any alarm bells?

And pictures get verified within a few hours at most and that didn't ring any alarms either?

I've met numerous people I didn't see a pic usually though they've had a few veris but I have met the odd newbie with no pics but as this was very local I didn't see it as a risk as I could be home in 15 mins if it didn't go to plan

Pics usually do get approved straight away. Lesson learnt- ask to see pics first.

I think if you've been messaging someone for a while that's different. The OP was meeting someone so new their pics hadn't been verified. Though granted he may have struck up a rapport very quickly.

But you suggested that you left because you didn't wanna play when kids were in the house. This doesn't sound like a meet where any chance of play was going to happen anyway. Either someone wound you up an said go this address or it is kind of a look at me thread try to show what a nice respectable guy you are.

I don't think not giving a mobile number is an issue for concern, personally we won't give anyone from here our number we done it twice and both were texting us more than we text one another & getting abusive when they weren't getting a response

I suppose it depends on your meeting criteria, if something is that important then there's no point meeting without checking out the goods 1st.

I'm not sure how you can say you don't care what people think of you as a person, I think what you mean is that you only cate about people telling you what you want to hear

couple, us we him her.

Sorry op.

Haven't read every reply.

Why didn't you arrange a social first?

Did you know they had kid's beforehand?

Had they been verified previously?

If you knew they had kid's then you can't take the moral high ground just coz they were still up?

Personally we wouldn't have met with them with kid's in the house.

We don't meet non verified people, been burnt previously so lesson learned.

As for them not giving you phone number.

We rarely if ever give our number out, does that make us fake?

End of the day, it's down to every person to take responsibility for properly vetting a prospective meet beforehand in a way that suits your requirements and level of morality.

Sorry but if you meet someone who has just joined site, no pictures or verifications little communication, no advanced social meet then hard to be sympathetic.

However I would say walking away was the correct thing to do.

Maybe be a bit more selective next time.

One to put down to experience I think. Going to an address given by an unverified profile. In hindsight I think you can see.

Possibly what happened when you turned up was one of the less disastrous outcomes.
