I Went On A Date with The Fireman

Well, I’m pretty sure the title says it all, don’t you? Date is probably too strong a word, but to be honest, it wasn’t far off. It was awkward, cute, and actually quite a lot of fun. And not, it didn’t lead to a kiss at the end of the night. Don’t worry. Jock has nothing to worry about. I had been bowling with the guys from work when I got his message. “Free for that drink tonight?” Fuck it, I thought. Why not. I’ve already had a couple. Might…

The Summer Ball

It’s been a fucking shitty month. From start to finish, this month has fucking sucked. It started with the week off that didn’t end up being a week off at all. I had to go on that shitty training course for work and it cost me a fortune. Then a massive direct debit came out of my bank account for no reason whatsoever and left me seriously overdrawn. After a long debate with the bank, I finally got my money back. They didn’t half make me work for it though. Fuckers.…

Stood Up

I got stood up by Jock. Here we go again. I hardly think this one was my fault. We woke up on Father’s Day, a tad hungover from the World Cup game the night before. He kept me awake snoring ALL night. Like literally all night. Then his phone went off at 8am. It was the Ex. After that, things went dramatically downhill. He asked if I wanted tea. ‘No thanks, I’ll make it later’ was my response. He ignored it and made me tea anyway, waking me up one…

Frustration. Nothing But a Pair of Kids.

It’s the third day of Jock and I not talking… again. I don’t get what’s up with us recently. We just can’t seem to get our shit together. It’s like we were all ‘in sync’ and now we’re not. We can’t get our schedules to work together. We’re never in the same mood at the same time anymore. It’s like we’ve just lost whatever it is we had. I still love him to death and I’m pretty sure the same could be said for him about me too, but it’s…

Why Won’t He Have Sex With Me?

I’m in what feels like an all-too-familiar situation right now and I genuinely don’t know what to do about it. The situation? I can’t seem to get my boyfriend to have sex with me. It doesn’t matter how much naughty lingerie I buy and wear for him, or how many hours I spend primping and preening for him, or how much effort I put into our time together, he just won’t put out. What am I doing wrong here? This isn’t the first time I’ve had a sex-demand issue in…

Am I Overreacting Again?

Jock is working nights, so we hadn’t seen each other for AGES! Like a week and a bit I think. He asked when he could see me next and I came up with a brilliant plan. On Friday morning, he could come to mine after his work shift, sleep for a few hours and then we could spend the rest of the day together and do stuff when he woke up at 1/2pm. Sounds good, right? I also told him that he shouldn’t come if he was going to be…

Big Love 

And Then He Broke My Heart …

Big Love was the fairytale prince that swept me off my feet, true Disney story-style. That’s where I left off last time, right? The man who opened doors and showed me amazing adventures … just like that time we went skydiving. I don’t think skydiving was the reason we parted ways, but it was one of those turning-point events in our relationship that definitely signalled the beginning of the end. He wanted it to be his thing, but I really wanted to do it too, and because I did it,…

Big Love: Meet Number 37

I realised something today. I talk about Big Love a lot in this blog, but I don’t think I’ve ever really told you the full story of him, just the horrible, bitter, jealous, ranting, whining breakup bits. And those really are NOT the best bits of our story. Not by HALF. Our love story was insane. And I mean literally insane. You should hear it. We first met in a war zone. An actual war zone, not a metaphorical one. We were both civilian contractors, him from one side of…

Number 29: The Prison Warden The Hubby 

Why Do Boys Talk to Me Like That? Meet Number 29!

I’m not sure if I’ve ever mentioned this guy before, but he’s Number 29 – The Prison Warden. He’s not a prison warden anymore. In fact, I think he’s gone into politics which is partly why he has gotten back in touch. We haven’t really spoken that much – he happened to come into where I work one day and we exchanged numbers again. He was a guy I had a weird threesome with when I was with the Hubby. Pretty sure I also cheated on the Hubby another night…

I Knew It!

So…. the crazy fucking ex played right into my hands, just like I knew she would. I can’t quite remember where I left off with you guys so let me just recap for one moment… Remember I was really pissed off about the crazy slut of an ex that seemed to be making my life a misery by taking up too much of his time, and his energy? Well, I had an angry outburst when I was on my period, resulting in Jock speaking to her and basically asking her…
