Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Who are all the single Fetchies!!

Good news nick.

After last night I don’t feel I ever want to be in a relationship given the way coercion and control seem to be valid currencies for others to use.

Terminally single here. Oh, and socially inept.
Now in my late forties and I’ve not had an actual relationship since I was in my twenties. Think it’s my lot in life.
Is it a circumstance of my own making? Probably.

I might have a ’thing’ happening but it’s ridiculously complicated.

But are you happy as you are nme2no1? I’m not sure I’m missing anything.

That sounds interesting HP. Hope the complications aren’t too overwhelming

As others on this thread will know, I have been fairly contentedly single for quite some time. It’s a good place to start from really.

Fields Sometimes yes, sometimes no. So very used to the status quo, but the lack of companionship and any kind of intimacy does occasionally bring the darkness.

A 'thing' sounds good, even if it is ridiculously complicated.

So... some history since I was last here which I can update you about or not.

Current status, though: it seems I'm not boyfriend material. Life too busy, particularly with having my eldest full time for a month at a time these days. I probably shouldn't even be on dating sites.

But sod it. I've been chatting to someone nice and I have a first walking date (with someone else) tomorrow morning. 😬

Surely not everyone is looking for someone to spend every minute with. As long as you’re upfront early on then why not be on dating sites.

If I’m ever in a relationship I doubt I’d want to see them more than twice a week.
