On the hook

Are you guilty of keeping people on the hook?

You know the ones, the "maybe" people where you chat about meeting but it never seems to lead to any actual plans. The ones you say you'll meet "one day".

Does anyone have you hooked? Has anyone tempted you but left you dangling?

I have definitely been on the receiving end in the past

If I've hooked someone it was more likely by accident

I sometimes put people off, but it's more like, yes I want to see you again... eventually. It's not so much a game as, I'm spread thin.

I'm generally cagey about it because people get upset when I reveal my priorities.

I think were all guilty of this and the vast majority have been on the receiving end too. Question is why. Is it embarrassment by saying sorry not interested or are they a sub, kept on the sidlines just in case

There and to the left a bit

Not on the hook as such - more people that we've both said if the timing is right and we can work something out it would be good to meet.

If a firm plan has been made to meet though then we meet, it might take a bit of time to arrange but it will happen.

I've never had anyone on the hook, let alone left them dangling. I've been left dangling recently, thinking it's time I kicked her off my friends list.

In my case it's just diary management. It's not a game.

No I don’t. If I’m genuinely interested I let them know, same as if I just want to chat and be friends. I wouldn’t like it if it was the other way around.

Hefty Hideaway

I’m one of those pesky people who actually meets and so it’s very frustrating when I happen upon a maybe person. I don’t dangle anymore. Meet me in within a certain timeframe or move along

As for me having someone on a hook... well they have to be caught first. I was always shite at fishing. Too impatient you see.

Btw, I don’t think it’s purely a female trait. I love chatting and flirting with guys and will add them to my hotlist if they meet my expectations. Unfortunately due to job commitments and real life, it may take a while until we meet. If I don’t keep chatting with them in the meantime however, we’d forget each other and that is just plain sad.

This is the same for me, I don’t have huge amounts of free time... then real life things come up too. If I’m talking to someone it’s with the intention to meet up but it just takes time

On a mooch

For me it’s all down to free time and fitting people into that. Most my meets are in the diary 3-6 weeks before I can see them as normal life has to fit into my kid free time as well.

However, I’m honest up front about it and understand those that don’t or can’t operate like that

It happens, even with the best intentions... people look and see if there is a better meet to be arranged...

In my past experience they do, usually a better option for them is on their radar so they keep you treading water till they they've established the better option is interested, then they ghost you hard!

I know, I did it a couple of times in my 20's. Pretty shit when you look back on it.

No. If I want to meet I would let them know, no maybes that's to much like game playing. I like people to spit out what they are thinking or feeling.

Be straight

Be direct

Be true
