Apparently something I said in my last entry was not well-received. Who knew that the masses shared exactly the same opinion as my childhood friend, Mrs. Perfect Marriage? According to all of YOU, I made a big mistake asking out Blind Date Guy. According to all of you, I should never, ever, ask out a [...]
I’d like to conduct a little exercise. For one day, I’d like every person to do what they say and say what they mean – when it comes to dating.
I know what you’re saying – Oh no, what happened now? Well, it’s not one thing specifically, more like a host of things. It all started [...]
So, I finally got a real date with Blind Date Guy. Technically, I can’t really call him that anymore, since we’ve met and things are no longer “blind.” But for reference purposes, the name sticks. And, I think we’ve established that for the sake of this blog, I like nicknames.
After Extra Large Jerk, I have to admit [...]
We haven’t talked about this, but I do have a day job. It’s freelance, so I don’t work with the same people all the time. Today I happen to be working with 3 men who have seen me naked. You heard me – that would be three, count ‘em three ex-boyfriends at work with me [...]
I miss sex.
I know that’s not a very ladylike thing to say, but I’ll say it again: I miss sex. It’s been two months since the breakup and even though the sex wasn’t anything to write home about, it was still sex and I was still having it. And now that I’m not, it seems [...]
Let me start by saying the double blind date guy didn’t call. Neither did the other one.
I spent the weekend with a teenager. Get your minds out of the gutter, people — this was not a cougar situation. I had my niece for the weekend. And I’ve got to say, it beat the pants off [...]
From the desk of “I told you so”:
On the top of the list of bad dating ideas, that would be the double blind date. What was I thinking? Let’s take one of the most awkward dating scenarios, and let’s MULTIPLY it. Yeah, that was a brilliant plan.
Actually the dates themselves were perfectly fine – lovely [...]
I have a date this week – with two guys. Okay, technically I have a blind date with one guy, but I haven’t met the other guy either, so… you get where this is going.
A girlfriend and I are going out with a friend of hers and he’s bringing a friend of his to meet [...]
I just got back from visiting my mom. To put it mildly, my mother and I have not had the closest relationship for most of my life. To put it a lot less mildly, it’s taken almost all of my thirty-something years to get to know her. It wasn’t that we didn’t like each other [...]
So there’s this guy who’s in love with me. I don’t mean that to sound conceited. I think we all know I’m a pretty self-deprecating girl – but this guy is in love with me. He’s smart. He’s funny. He’s successful and filthy rich. He calls me every day, treats me to fancy dinners, buys [...]
