Someone New

I’ve started talking to someone new. I really quite like him, so you know there’s going to be something wrong with him soon. Or he’ll just stop talking to me for what seems to be no good reason at all like so many of the rest have done before him. Shall we place our bets now? I need to think of a good name for him. I’ll get to it later. Let’s get to the specifics: he’s a few inches taller than me (tick), rides a really hot-lookin’ motorbike (tick),…

A Guy Who Wants to Be Your Guy

I’m in that place again. That place where I can’t think straight or gather my thoughts for long enough to write them down. My head has been clouded over by Someone New and, I need to be honest with you, I’m absolutely loving every moment of it. Naughty with just the right amount of nice, he’s woken me in ways I absolutely needed. We haven’t stopped talking, now comfortably sitting in the territory of actual voice calls — voice-to-voice contact. We spent most of last night on the phone, him…

Nakedly Tangled

Soooo, what’s been happening with you guys? Actually, don’t tell me yet. I’ve got so much stuff to tell you. I’m now well and truly smitten with Someone New even though we haven’t actually met yet, and I think I might need a little help coming back down to earth. We’ve Facetimed and spoken for HOURS on the phone. We text literally from the second we wake up to the second we go to bed. We’ve discussed everything, anything you could think of. Movies, music, food, family, work, sex, past…

What Are the Chances? (Someone New: Date One)

I’m taking a weird and slightly different approach to my first date with Someone New. I’m going to give you an hour by hour rundown as it happens. A minute-taking, if you like, of my first date with this new chap. Now, I do appreciate I’m putting this date on quite the pedestal, but fuck it, good or bad, we’re in this together. So, this is me at 5:44 pm. Our date was meant to have started somewhere around the 2/3 pm mark, but his meeting overran quite a bit…

Maybe It’s Just a Bad Day?

It’s been a really good day for me. Well, up until a point, anyway. I left the house today (woohoo!), my insides behaved themselves, my love life is still going swimmingly, I did some shopping, had a lot of fun, and then I learned about a massive sale I’d made and the commission I’d get from it. It was the biggest commission I’d made in a single sale, so I hit the roof with glee. As happy as I was, it felt as though there was something missing. Like my…

Date Number Two with Someone New

So, Someone New and I decided to go bowling for our second date. It was fairly disastrous from the beginning, to be honest. I missed two trains and ended up having to get a bus [HATE], but then I lost the return ticket and had to pay an absolute fortune for a cab back to mine because there were no more trains and I missed the last bus looking for the stupid piece of paper. Was I drunk? Yes, of course I was. I did have a good time, though.…

While We’re Doing The Honesty Thing …

Someone New and I a little chat about our “Famous Five”. You know: the five famous people you’d be allowed to cheat on your significant other with, should you ever get the chance to meet them. It’s a silly game, I know, but we played it. I think I mentioned something about watching Angelina Jolie films in bed, naked, for the whole day, because she was one of my Famous Five at the time. He replied: “I’d need to wash the duvet, couch and anything else I came into contact…

Date Number Three. FUCK!

So, Someone New and I went on our third date. We didn’t have sex. But I can 100% wholeheartedly tell you that I CANNOT keep my hands off this guy. It was pathetic. I was a pathetic, horny little mess. He loved the attention and said as much, but even I know that the behaviour I displayed was very unlike me. We met (an hour later than agreed) and went for a quick coffee and a piece of cake. Then we did some shopping for lunch ingredients, took a casual…

Date Number Four with Someone New

So, folks, I have good news to report: Someone New and I finally managed to get our shit together. WE MADE IT TO THE BEDROOM! And let me tell you, date four was every bit as exciting and thrilling as I hoped it would be. It was the perfect way to start four weeks of no sex … but I’ll go into that later. Let’s get all good and excited about the good news first. He met me from the station on Tuesday evening and we grabbed some groceries for…

I’m So Indecisive Today

I don’t really know what’s happened. A few days ago, I was well into Someone New, but then he went away for the weekend with work and I found a few things out. One big thing in particular. Apparently, he only stopped shagging a work colleague just a few weeks/months ago. They were shagging for six or seven months or more, she’s prettier and skinnier than me and I feel really insecure now, and they still work together. She’s barely 21; he’s 30-something. All of a sudden – and I…
