It was Sarah, the one who had the stroke.

Oh right - that's really interesting

But you'd presumably agree it is her prerogative to respond to who she likes

It was obvious she was never going to be without a date for long!

That's my main problem with the programme - most (all the women) are far too telegenic/not likely to
actually be undateable

I think the 'undateable' term is being used in the sense that it's other peoples' prejudice that might see these people
as 'undateable' and the programmes are meant to challenge this

Hell no! If I message someone I expect a reply. It's just outright disrespectful otherwise.

Perhaps I should be on that programme: I haven't been on a date in over seven years!

If I ever messaged people first on dating sites I didn't expect an answer

The more good looking they were, the less likely they were to answer basically lol

Also, last year this 22 year old lad replied to me messaging him first (I'm 46 and did it out of
sheer bravado, knowing no good would probably come of it) and he led me on terribly and it
ended up turning into an utterly ego-shredding experience that put me off dating sites for life!

Perhaps she didn't respond to him in person because she's aphasic?

She is rather attractive, though.

1.) Is her profile still on POF?

2.) Did she mention her disability in her profile?

I haven't used POF in a while now, I deleted my account because the website is a waste of time. I remember her profile was, understandably, very succinct. She did mention she had aphasia. In a way I felt I could relate to that because of my difficulty explaining my emotions - this was before I knew I had alexithymia, or even what it was.

She did say on her profile you could find out more about her by searching You Tube for 'Sarah stroke'.

Thanks for uploading the second episode.

I kind of liked the guy with the face problem, but it seems that second woman he was on a date with was a bit shifty.

As for the midget, she was not really as innocent as I had thought.

I thought the woman he went on the date with was very nice but saw her face slightly drop when she was saying how nice she thought he was

I couldn't work out if she was seeing him for genuine reasons or not

I liked him a lot and felt he would find someone eventually due to his really nice character and I started to fancy him a bit

I didn't like the dwarf lady - she seemed to be putting on a 'zany'/'woman of the world' act all the time which I found tedious

I thought same thing

Her last relationship had ended some months? ago and she was looking for a safe, non-threatening way of re-entering the dating waters

Sara(the one who has dwarfism) should move to California. I have seen many there and it's nothing unusual. She's out going and doesn't belong on that show. I didn't like how the one women got involved telling the guy his ex had feelings. It sounded like playing with peoples emotions pretty tasteless but then that's a so called reality show.

I thought the guy sky diving with Sara was going to barf lol

I thought she was just giving Ray all the information so he could make an informed decision.

If he still missed his ex Lolita, surely it was better to tell him she still had feelings for him too, so he could get back with her if he wanted to

As it was he chose not to, but it was an informed decision

I laughed at how ill Sara's date looked when coming down! He was evidently hating every minute of it!

I liked the way he said nonchalantly, 'Well you've got to try these things once - that's another one crossed off the list'
ie remind me never to do THAT again! Lol
