I'd like to keep in touch....

June 20, 2010
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 groundbreaking but the wine, and the conversation soon started flowing and we seemed to be getting on quite well..

My friends then came and met me and when he didn't take his excuse to run for the hills and stayed I thought things may have been going well..

Turns out he didn't think so as despite kissing me goodbye when he left after an additional 2hours of our date he text me the next day and said he didn't 'feel anything between us' but he thought I was great and he'd really like to keep in touch... added with an 'I mean that'

Now.....

Why would I want to keep in touch with a guy that has had one date and decided he doesn't like me? hmmm... not being overwhelmed with reasons myself.

I deleted his number.. he's emailed me a couple of times since that but I'm not entirely sure why.. maybe the keeping in touch comment was sincere - but I don't have a lot  to say to him so I'm happy to walk away from this one.

Keeping it in the family

May 16, 2010

I'm all for catching up with old friends - but I think my most recent date might have overstepped the mark..

I bumped into the brother of an ex boyfriend of mine last week.. and we ended up going on a date. I've spoken to various friends about this and there seems to be a mixed reaction if I'm honest. One sister disapproves.. the other one said go for it. Some friends say don't do it.. others say try it out..

I've agreed to see him again.. but still not sure it's a great idea.. dateastrophe a...

Just for the record... I'm normally MUCH better at this

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...

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.
