Have you ever had a bad meet that put you off meeting again and if so, how did you get over it? Or did you never meet since? Did it change how you meet?

I haven’t really had a bad meet but my last meet I wished I’d never met in the first place, but that’s because I liked him and he put an end to us meeting again.

I had to move the furniture round in my bedroom, move the position my bed was in and I didn’t meet anyone else again for sex, that was January this year!

I actually moved my furniture back to how it was yesterday cos it looks better.

Luckily I haven’t had a meet so bad that it’s put me off, I always come back for more!

But those that haven’t been ‘at the top’ of my list of meets you just shrug off to experience and move on.

I can imagine if you’ve found yourself in a threatening or scary situation then it works be very different so I hope all is ok OP xx

I've had one that scared the shit outta me

I've had one where I was questioned by the police

I've had several that were just awful in their content, but I found them funny at the time

I was a thrill chaser back then

None of it phased me

I just wanted more

I've changed with age and in finding contentment in myself

I am way more measured these days

When I had a single profile I had a guy who proceeded to stalk me, burgled and vandalised my house then threaten to kill me.When arrested he had 6 profiles all verified that he’d been contacting me on made up of the type of guy I looked for

He’s recently been released from prison after serving 20 months of a three year sentence. I found out he’d been released by a new status of ‘“im back”

The police were good bout things and referred to it as a dating site and showed me tips on how to check guys out if I was going to carry on doing this.

I’m just very cautious now, I tried to report his current profile as he’s advertised he’s 100% genuine nice guy lol but I suppose they probably think I’m a bitter ex or something trying to cause trouble but I have the link to the article in the Daily Mirror which shows his face pic and he has it on his public pics on profile.

Sorry for the lengthy post but I needed to vent about it

But in the reverse side I’ve met some wonderful people and made great friends

"Have you ever had a bad meet that put you off meeting again and if so, how did you get over it? Or did you never meet since? Did it change how you meet?"

Hope you are ok?

No bad meets as such, only one which made me feel like I was in a situation I shouldn't of been, felt nothing really particular he did, just felt uneasy.

Come across bad attitudes though, my previous fwb would majorly strop if I couldn't meet him for some reason, he'd get quite abusive.

Then there are the clingy ones. A guy I used to meet regularly just would not let go, messages begging to meet, I tried explaining that I moved on, but he never got the hint, in the end he turned quite stalkerish, creepy, used to send me "i'm in your village,do you still have that big dog and white car?"

Followed by "I fancy a bit of role play, shall I be your burgler?"

Luckily he never knew where I lived, and I changed my car since meeting him.

I don't tend to meet now, I have a fwb who really is just that, a friend with benefits. We've talked about being in a relationship, too much going on right now,but in the future who knows.

your imagination

I try not to dwell or to let things affect my experiences, but yes, one guy did put me right off meeting for a very very long time. I'm not sure if I actually would have ever met anyone again if it wasn't for the fact that I'd also had some really amazing meets, made some fantastic friends and found my rope bunny match along the way. The good outweighed the bad, and as long as things stay good, the scales keep tipping favourably further

That sounds awful, hope you’re okay. What are the kind of tips you’ve been taught - just wondering if there’s anything that any of us hadn’t been aware of that could be beneficial to know?

Once an too this day 7/8yrs later I will not meet anyone who expects me to get random public transport in the middle of the night.

It was lucky I had the money for taxis as after chatting for a very long time and not from here. He lived on the outskirts of his town.

He kicked me out after he woke me up to preform oral on him when I refused I had to go. But I had to order my own taxi stood outside.

On another site I did yes, wasn’t nice at all.

I got over it by meeting with someone I’d known for a while and trusted, the got my spirits up!

I also was much more wary of people and still am to this day. I’m also even more picky with who I meet for the same reasons.

Had a few bad meets, but nothing that's put me off meeting again. One thing I've become is more selective about who I meet. Compared to when I first started meeting people.

I've never had a really bad meet when it's just me and a single/couple, unless you count the ones where they didn't turn up. Clubs and socials, on the other hand... still haven't figired out how to make those work work for me, and some of them have been truly crushing.

Crushing is bad. Hope you've met nicer people since.

Not really. I don't want to blame the people (well, not most of them at any rate). I just don't have the skill set to succeed at socials and clubs, and I'm not having much luck at gaining it.

I’ve had a scary meet which changed how I do things nowadays.

I’ve also had someone turn out to be the opposite of what I thought, he ended it but then wouldn’t leave me alone. Continual abuse. I know he’s back on here. That’s all I’ll say as I don’t want a forum ban.

To counteract that, I have met some truly lovely people.

I did and I actually left fab and swinging for a while.

The meet was good and he was lovely until his wife found out and hounded me via whatspp. I actually felt very sorry for her and rather ashamed of myself but I honestly thought he was single as that’s what he told me.

Had a bizarre near meet. Arranged a social and only the husband turned up, apparently to decide if his wife would actually be interested in the person. After spending 30 mins with him telling me he can have any woman he wants and regularly does, I left. he later messaged to say although I wasn't his wife's type I could take her out for drinks. Plan was spend 90 minutes in the pub with her then he would turn up and decide if it could be taken any further. I politely declined and he turned instantly. No body messes us around I know your face I will track you down etc etc.

There's some strange folk in the world and most of them are on here.

Not on here (and a big part of the reasons I don’t meet single guys in private on here) but essentially had a guy with a lot of internalised homophobia I was unaware of decide he was going to punch downwards part way as I was giving him a bj after we’d agreed to meet (and I essentially had to fight my way to get away from him). Did lead me to deleting my profile on the site I was a part of and not meeting for a couple of months.

I had similar but thankfully it was only a social, I had been told she was single/divorced, but when we met, her husband had followed her. He knew I had been duped and frogmarched her out of the coffee shop. Me? I was the entertainment for the next 60 seconds before making my own exit without making eye contact with anyone.... It put me off for a bit, and I am now more cautious and diligent.

I have heard from friends on here especially t-girls and women of being roughed up. Some guys honestly think that you meet them and it’s instant sex. This is why I always have a social meet and more inclined to meet at clubs.

Yeah I’m fine, as I say, it was a dickhead and is the main reason I don’t want to meet single men outside of clubs (and even then I’m selective). Don’t mind couples though

A few years ago I decided to throw caution to the wind and meet someone who was very local to me but i thought he would be on the same page with the discretion thing as he was a police officer..

Turned out he was on extended leave due to mental health issues, brought on by a harrassment claim made by someone he was supposed to have been helping through his job..

I almost reported him myself as after our meet he kept popping up everywhere, saying stuff like 'fancy meeting you here'

It also didn't help that we had friends in common and i also knew his sister..

He was later found guilty from an internal enquiry so he is definitely the reason i don't meet anyone local anymore

There was an article about something similar on Radio 2's Jeremy Vine a while ago, scary what some people will do. The woman telling her story said that this guy altered his profile to appear like a perfect match, over a period of time she found out his real story, he was married with a family and a serial dater - but nothing as awful as what happened to you.

I had a bad meet a few months after initially joining. I didn't meet for a little while after it and only with my Fwb at the time. It actually taught me not to be naive, get to know someone as much as I can, before I met them and always meet in a public setting initially. I was silly to put myself in a risky position, so it taught me a lot, in that regard, never to do it again.

Reading responses in here it really does put some comments on another thread into context. Well done on starting this OP....

I think sometimes people are shamed into not sharing bad experiences and it becomes all about "showing off" the good ones. There are lessons to be learnt here for both men and women

Thanks again
