An extremely hungover blog post today... it was Ladies night last night and we had a fabulous night out at Annabel's on the Barbican. Some fantastic dancing was done and I consumed a large amount of Jager Bombs in between recounting my story of 'the proposition'.. After my last post the texts continued back and forth between him and my manager's witty responses.. and to give full entertainment for all I shall again recount the dialogue word for word: Him: 'Good! Ha yeah well... Like I said...... Continue reading ...

Well not to ask me on another date... that is until the other night when I received a message from him. I’m not going to do it justice with my own words, so I will quote this um... gentleman... verbatim:

This post is going to be quite self indulgent.. so if you're feeling intolerant I'd suggest you skip this one and read a funnier entry. I'm feeling pretty low this week after a bit of an ego bashing and a realisation that I'm actually quite lonely.. and I'd quite like to actually meet a nice guy who'll be around. Knee jerk reaction after having my family around me for the entire weekend and a busy house.. once you're on your own again you really feel lonely.. Anyway.. the ego bruising is what...

I've been on an online dating site for quite a while now and I'm finding it increasingly depressing! I seem to have met most of the strange, inappropriate, sleazy and unavailable men in Plymouth.. I went through quite a hectic phase of dating (as you've seen) but all is quiet on the dating front at the minute.. partly, I think, due to the fact that I haven't met anyone recently who can make me laugh, or construct a sentence.. Perhaps online dating is just making me realise exactly how high ma... Continue reading ...

I thought I should share this with you all - as it's a prime example of a predator if ever I saw one... I was out for some drinks the other night and got introduced to a friend of a friend, tall - alright looking, although I had had some wine so I had my Vino goggles on and seemed alright until he took my hand in his and told me that he could read palms.. and could he read mine... By this point my bull shit alarm was on high alert - sirens blaring, the lot... but I was drunk and intrigued so ... Continue reading ...

So... he's back! X seems to have regained his selective memory in the past month and communications have been initiated once more.. You'd have thought that I would know better and that after last time he would have got the message. I mean after all, I was quite explicit in where I wanted him to go and what I thought he should do.. Anyway.. he's back and secretly I'm kind of glad as despite the continued non committal attitude and the highly insensitive nature he does make me laugh, and I don'... Continue reading ...

Hello Singletons! I've been laying low for a while after my last couple of posts... licking my ego wounds and regrouping.. FYI things with the ex's bro went quiet as my conscience couldn't take it.. I have a new date story for your delight though so thought it was best to come out of blog hiding. Last week I met up with a lovely guy for a drink in Plymouth.. I didn't have much free time so I met him before going on to meet some friends for drinks. First impressions weren't particularly ground... Continue reading ...

Prepare yourself for one of the MOST mortifying date stories you have ever told.. acknowledgement is the best source of recovery - or so I've heard... I'll start at the beginning and ease you in. I met a lovely guy a few weeks ago when I was out with some friends.. very cute, very funny.. good times! He took my number and asked if he could take me out for dinner sometime. First of all I thought - very nice, but he'll never call. How wrong I was - he called - we arranged dinner, but before di... Continue reading ...

I'm tired of this situation with X... it seems I'm just a fan of getting made to feel rubbish. I've decided that the best course of action is to just not see him anymore, so this evening after getting in from work I called him and told him it wasn't working for me. To be honest I expected some form of a fight from him, or at least some sign that he cared - but no.. typical! I realise my past few posts have been taken up with X and he just isn't worth it, but seems to be taking over my logical... Continue reading ...

I have a date tonight with a guy who I'm now affectionately calling Mr Bun.. originally I had a date with him to make X jealous... needless to say X didn't actually care, or notice that much to be honest - just simply said.. 'oh, if that's what you want to do'... So I set up a date with him, on this date he turned up with a batch of freshly made cupcakes... (gay? I'm not sure yet..) which he told me weren't 'girly cupcakes' they were 'manly buns' - hence Mr Bun after one of the BEST cupcake s... Continue reading ...

It was Valentine's Day yesterday.. have to say, as a single person it's not my favourite time of year - but this one went quite well. Granted I had no cards, flowers or romantic gestures - but I did have a relatively nice day with my family. Spend it with those you love I thought. I kind of hoped X might have picked up on the HUGE hints that I'd dropped, I mean they weren't exactly subtle.. I even said on Saturday 'what are you going to write in my Valentine's Card' - so it was fairly obvio... Continue reading ...

Well....
I've neglected you my dear little blog for a while... I've been busy on the whole dating scene - however I have now come to my senses and realised that until I find my manicorn I will remain resolutely single.
So let me catch you up on my most recent comings and goings. I have been on various dates, both successful and unsuccessful and have had some quite interesting moments along the way. So where do I start?!
In September there was 'The Boy', November brought to light a different m... Continue reading ...

This weekend I excelled myself with the odd behaviour that has resulted in my resolutely single status.. Yes ladies it was the Jane Austen Festival... and what a treat the people of Bath had, to see me dressed in my finest bonnet - yes, you read that correctly - and regency costume.. complete with ringlets! Not only did I dress up and fully take part in this amazing festival - I was accompanied by my family and also had the MOST ingenious idea of sending a picture of myself dressed in my fine...

So... I have a friend... who went on a blind date... As usual for a woman she wanted to look good - first date and all that. Some preliminary facebook stalking had been done before hand and she knew that the guy was good looking, had spoken to him, so knew they got on.. so understandably she was quite hopeful. After a lot of clothes being thrown around she settled on a cute dress and more importantly (for this story) some heels. She looked GORGEOUS... unfortunately she spent the whole night s...

About Me
I'm a twenty something woman, living in the UK. I have a job, I'm relatively good looking, I can cook and I like to think I have a good sense of humour... and yet - I'm single.
Don't get me wrong - I love being single and having my freedom - but sometimes I'm amazed by the things I say and do both in day to day life and in my encounters with men.. and when I say amazed I don't mean in a good way.
About Him
I'm a twenty something guy, living in the USA. I am a medical student, I'm pretty attractive (although my friends often tell me there are other attractive men out there, apparently), I'm fun and have a great sense of humour, I can cook better than almost every girl I've met, and I have a decent fashion sense - for a guy. However, I'm single. I've been told this may have something to do with my lack of patience, a certain egocentric streak, my often acerbic humour, or a penchant for getting drunk at inappropriate times or to an inappropriate degree when the occasion is acceptable. Perhaps all of the above.
