Wow there is a headline to make them swipe left! Something mysterious happened when my dating profile updated at the turn of my 40th birthday… What happened to all the matches? Suddenly my match ratio was as slow as the district line with signal failures. I kept swiping right but alas no matches. Ok, ok,... Continue Reading →
Ah for fucksake. The night before was a whole different picture. I felt like I had this F boy thing on lockdown (excuse the Covid-pun). I was really trying to remain strong and focused with my emotions. I was actually quite impressed with myself. No calls, no chit chat, we are not even playing lockdown... Continue Reading →
So in the spirit of being open (see my last post on vibrational energy), I decided to open up my search preferences - the age limits specifically. After the last date with a guy who was in his late 40's, I thought younger is definitely more my thing! I dropped my age bracket requirements which... Continue Reading →
So I got to thinking about the last 2 or 10 dates i've had... Firstly I think that I've made a real effort to date since I started this blog in January. I think with my drive I could have had more if it were not for Covid throwing a spanner in the works. So... Continue Reading →
Date 10. Where do I begin? This was supposed to be a happy post where I recount the amazing 3 dates I've had with this guy. But here I am at midnight on a Friday with my headphones on listening to Marvin Gaye, in bed with a glass of vino having watched Bridget Jones Baby... Continue Reading →
Date 9 was a connection from before lockdown but we didn't communicate for at least 5 months. When he added me as a friend on facebook I thought oh ok, he's now interested... he's searched me out and wants to pick up the conversation. I accepted his friend request (might delete that now) and the... Continue Reading →
I was introduced to 'Date 8' via a match-maker who says that I fit the profile of what this guy (6ft+, 45, Uk/ Ghanaian mixed race, London entrepreneur) is looking for. Fantastic I thought... he sounds right up my street. The match-maker gave me a good description and said he would be in touch to... Continue Reading →
Falling in love with a fuck boy is so easily done. Trust me i've done it, over and over in fact. I've always wanted a relationship, i'm not into one night stands but I really enjoy sex, and intimacy is like a drug. Some people may make a decision that a fuckboy is what they... Continue Reading →
Halleujah I got out of lockdown last week for my first date since lockdown. I followed the 'like who likes you' challenge from my last post and matched with someone who I thought I'd dated once some years ago. The sun was shining, our UK heatwave had us all out and excited. I even ordered... Continue Reading →
So one one of the new lockdown features are zoom calls. Work ones can do one, but it's actually been quite fun catching up with my girlfriends on a evening where we are all so bored of our own company we are happy to sit with the laptop with a glass of wine or cup... Continue Reading →
I came upon a piece of performance poetry on a friends IG story today, the title "Depression and Dick Appointments" got me interested. I watched and listened to this woman perform her verse, to the sound of what sounds like a New York audience cheering her on. Oh wait a minute, I know this story,... Continue Reading →
