X

X is a funny creature..

We met a while ago and had our first date a few months ago. He's not the most good looking guy you'll ever come across, but he's not ginger... which is a start. The main thing that drew me to him was that he made me laugh, and feel completely comfortable around him. We carried on seeing each other for quite a while, he introduced me to his friends, we saw each other a lot... and then suddenly he tells me we should just be friends - because he doesn't want a girlfriend.
I'd never even mentioned that I might want to be his girlfriend.. (the fact that the thought crossed my mind with alarming frequency is completely irrelevant... he's not a mind reader) so I thought that was that. He's just not that into me. We'll be friends.

Apparently by friends what he meant was 'lets carry on doing exactly what we are now without any of the responsibility to one another'. I'm not cool with that.

But still he hasn't quite disappeared yet.. I still find myself waking up next to him fairly frequently and wondering what the hell I'm doing with a guy who doesn't want any form of relationship with me.

We started being 'friends' in January - and this morning - a WHOLE MONTH later, I did the walk of shame back from his house to mine.. along with a torrent of verbal punishment from my sister down the phone. Think he's a habit I need to break.

The Boy

February 11, 2010
 Right so... where was I... catching you up on the recent dating disasters. Just in time for me to buy some fabulous shoes for myself in celebration of being single on Valentine's day... God created Carvela's for me!

So back in September I started seeing a guy.. he was younger than me, hence 'The Boy' and at first it was great, I mean really great.. fun, laughing, bedroom aerobics, you name it. It didn't last.. unfortunately. Seems that much intensity fizzles out pretty quickly and left me as...

It's been a while...

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...

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.
