Phone calls and Internet
The first was after an enjoyable evening of extremely nice snogging. Unfortunately the other person then went back to their home in London (this is a theme: everyone I like lives sodding miles away, and I refuse to do LDR(*))

They decide this will never work out. They are also a bit mad (this is also a theme, sadly). They proceed to tell me this for *2 fucking hours*. Next time, I'm agreeing after 10 minutes and hanging up..

The second was mad online lady. At first glance she seemed ok, then she started to be possessive asking who I'd been out with *ding*.

Then she really wanted me to ask her out but couldn't work up the courage to ask herself *ding ding*

Then she wanted to go out, but it had to be Saturday *ding ding ding*
Because she didn't go out in the week *ding ding ding ding*
..and had no-one else to go out with on Saturday *ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding*
and she really wouldn't make any half decent compromise *diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing CLANG*

So I said no, even though she practically offered me sex. It just wasn't worth it.

A couple of weeks later she claimed to have been out with a guy and he'd come back to hers. I hoped she'd had fun and enjoyed herself. This, of course, was not the right answer because I'm sure the guy had never existed.

Fortunately she slowly disappeared, which is more than I can say about Mad Bondage Woman, who still tries to say hullo every six months - It's been going on for *years*.

(*) Or parents, smokers, drug users, dog owners, tories,pokemon players,poly people,submissives,dommes, people that dislike bi men, people that insist on playing hard to get or wanting the other person to jump to their needs, and people that just want FWB. Yes, I am still single. Wonder why? There must be *someone* nice somewhere in the North West

FWB ?
Am scratching my head for what this is. Either it's very common and I'm a twit for not knowing, or it's some sexual thing that I've never heard of, which thanks to the Internet would scare me somewhat...

FWB
FWB=Friend With Benefits

A friend you have sex with, where there is no potential shared future in your relationship.

I've had more than one person proposition me for a fuck every few weeks, but there's no way I'm going to be someone's (probably non exclusive) sex toy just to fit in with their schedule. I'd rather go without.

So in essence
anyone who smokes, owns a dog, has a child, takes drugs, supports a political belief that isn't yours, plays a game that you don't, have sexual interests that aren't yours or people that just don't want a relationship are not nice.

I suggest wanking in front of the mirror.

Nice conflation there
I said I didn't want to be involved with such people, how you manage to convert this to them 'not being nice' is beyond me.

By ending the list with
There must be *someone* nice somewhere in the North West.

You're reading a meaning into the words that isn't there
In the context of a relationship, people with the above characteristics are not what I want to get involved with.

Or to be clear, the complete sentence should be 'There must be someone nice in the North West who meets my relationship criteria'

For friendship I have friends in almost all of the above categories, and enjoy their company. That doesn't mean I'd like them in a relationship or that it'd work.
