The Crazy Wait
The Crazy Wait I recently got sent this text conversation (thanks @chicbeautyblog) between a girl who had slept with a guy called Kevin and then texts him asking him out again. She then text stalked him as well as waiting outside his house to see him and…yes it got pretty crazy. I was in tears […]
The Perfect Date
The Perfect Date So we keep on meeting and we flirt but not too openly because that would be crass and I’m a lady. Yes I said it. Who knows who else he has in his life and goodness knows there are enough idiots in mine so nothing happens and time marches on until 2012 […]
Running in heels
Sometimes we go through things that teach us lessons and remind us of who our friends are. If you haven’t already read the male friend I suggest you have a quick squizz. Mine came 2 years ago after the Whitney Houston concert. Already low I listened to my ipod humming badly to Bobby Mcferrin’s ‘Common […]
The Sketchy Date
The Sketchy Date So I met a guy on a mutual friend’s Facebook thread. He said something vaguely witty, I made a comment about his name and before you know it a friend request was in my inbox. Strangely enough when I saw his pictures I realised that we had met 2 years prior during […]
The male friend
Let me start with a disclaimer. I love most of my male friends. Some have known me for years and have seen me at my best and my worst. Sorry to the male friend whose couch I threw up on. They keep me sane, spoil me with gifts and are great for straight talking whenever […]
The concert (Whitney and me part 2)
I think it was October of 2009 when they announced her concert. Whitney Houston was coming to the 02 and I wasn’t going to miss this opportunity. I just knew that this was the time to see her before I was too old to bust a proper move. I had missed her by 6 weeks […]
The Wifey Slap
So we were talking for ages. People started to move away and leave us as we found each other in conversation. Yes there was quite a bit of alcohol involved but then, when isn’t there when you consider chocolate and champagne to be food groups? There is a point when you get that feeling, deep, […]
The role of the confidente
The role of the confidente So as a friend there is a role which we all have to deliver which is that of the confidente. Normally I don’t mind it but sometimes there are questions which one has to put up with. So here are the delightful questions we friends who are confidentes have to […]
Why Games don’t work
The other night I was at a Get the Guy seminar learning how to ….well, get a guy. I am somewhat sceptical about these Americanised seminars in hotels. Was I going to be expected to whoop and holler? Walk over hot coals to prove my commitment to finding true love? I rubbed my hand sorely […]
The Butt kick
The Butt kick So there was a time my precious when I couldn’t get a date for love nor money. Separation agreed I still needed to ‘get back out there’ as everyone put it and start the bloody dance of the terrible one liners But back out where? The dating scene had changed beyond my […]
