The Jack Rabbit

Location: Various

This was the first time I went on a second date …and a third, and a fourth, with the same guy. This guy was good looking, interesting and we had quite similar backgrounds, so lots in common. I can’t remember all the dates, but one really memorable one we took a boat down the Thames and got off at Greenwich for a walk around the park, then drinks and a meal before getting the boat back to the city. He was a good kisser (really important after the previous experience!) and after the fourth date I decided to bring him back to the flat.

Unfortunately (there’s so many unfortunatelies in this blog!), that was where the fun stopped. It was exactly like the episode in Sex and The City where Carrie decides she will have a fling and asks herself ‘how bad could it be?’ The answer…'he and I had sex like we were teenagers again. Meaning he had no idea what he was doing, and I didn’t say anything.’


Again, like with ‘Sloppy Kisser’ I have since wondered whether I should have given him another go, because first time sex with a new person is never all that amazing. But I just couldn’t bring myself to go through it again. 
Two years down the line, back in the dating game and slightly more jaded, I do wish maybe I hadn’t given up on him so easily. But it could be a lucky escape for my back!

Note to all guys anywhere, in case you haven't figured it out yet, this type of sex is not good!

The Smelly One

Location: The Vittoria Rainy Monday. Monday evenings are for sofa cuddling and an early night, but for some reason I decided a date would be a more efficient use of my time.   I realised the error in my ways at around 4pm at work, when I messaged said date to call it off. It was another of those ‘not really excited by pictures or chat’ moments and I had a nice supper of poached eggs, salmon and avocado I was looking forward too. But, he didn’t take it lying down and actually sent some quite funny responses to my cancellation message that were enough to reluctantly convince me to change my mind again and give it a go. So I walked to the Vittoria (his choice) after work in the pissing rain. It’s not a pub I have ever wanted to go to before despite its close proximity to work, because from the outside it looks old manny and smelly.  I went inside and it was indeed old manny and smelly.  My date stood up to say hello and unfortunately I immediately knew I d...

The Sloppy Kisser

Location: Bar near Oxford Circus Still quite new to online dating apps, the messages exchanged between me and this next guy seemed definitely promising…funny, witty and very flirtatious – for some reason we agreed that we would kiss upon meeting (despite being complete strangers) and I was actually really looking forward to the date. Lesson learnt – never look forward to it and never get your hopes up. They will be dashed!  We did indeed kiss upon meeting. But unfortunately it was so horrendously awful that I had to subtly wipe my face with my hand to remove the slobber! This is the first example of how my dating life is starting to mirror that of the Sex and The City girls...and not in a good way. To quote Charlotte: 'It was all around my mouth!' The next half hour passed by in a bit of a blur. I think he was ok…he was good looking and quite funny as I recall, but I was so worried about the chance he might try and kiss me...

Dating Disasters...why me?!

Hello Readers and welcome to my blog! I decided to start writing this after a lovely, if slightly depressing, weekend with my uni mates who all have boyfriends/husbands/babies/houses. I am the only single one left, and according to them I am ‘living the life’! I do love being super independent, and have had a lot of fun, but at the same time I would really like a special someone as well (not so fussed about the baby bit!) This blog captures some of the dates I have experienced since becoming single. They’re pretty funny now I look back (well I can either laugh or cry!) and writing it has given me a completely different mindset, where I am now actually looking forward to my next disastrous date!  I hope you enjoy reading…   P.S Dad, please don’t read this, it contains things you might not want to know about your youngest daughter! P.P.S I am not a total bitch! Many of these guys are lovely, we just didn’t connect. That's the dating world for you! Disclaimer...
