It Wasn’t A Waste Of Time If You Learned Something

I read that quote somewhere and it seemed very pressing right now as I’m in the midst of yet another breakup. It wasn’t a waste of time if you learned something. So what did I learn? In my eight months with Someone New and the awful way that we broke up, what did I learn? Did I even learn anything at all? Is it too soon to tell? I think I have learned some stuff so it wasn’t a complete waste of my time. I now know when something isn’t right,…

I Don’t Want You…

… But I don’t want anyone else to have you either. That’s pretty much how I felt when I saw Someone New back on POF. Browsing late last night, mocking the stupid men with their even more stupid profiles, I came across it – his profile. The same as it was when I stumbled across him the first time but he’d updated a few of the pictures. I was jealous for a moment but it wasn’t long before I realised something – I don’t know what I was doing with…

Someone New Got In Touch

Erm…. So Someone New sent me a message last night. On Instagram too, bizarrely. I don’t know why he messaged me on there, I don’t think we’ve ever sent each other a message on there before. I didn’t even know you could direct message. I learn something new every day! I’m guessing he deleted my number, that’s probably why he sent me that message on Instagram. He said I’d popped up on his feed and he hoped my tests went OK. Yeah, right, I know the real reason he got…

Start Again. Page One…

So…. I told you about The Director. Now it’s time for me to tell you about Someone New. He popped back up  a while back and as suggested, I just stopped sending him messages back. I didn’t see the point. I’d known he wasn’t right for me for a long time when we were dating so getting into any kind of communication would just be pointless for us both. It would string him along and I’d end up having ‘fake feelings’. Because girls get those fuckers sometimes and they proper…

Because At Christmas, You Tell The Truth.

I’ve watched Love Actually twice this week. I’d never seen it before, and it’s ended up becoming one of those movies I instantly fall in love with. And as I watching it, I realised a few things. So, in the spirit of Christmas, I’m telling the truth. Let’s start with The Dom.  Well, we met for the first time. I kept meaning to write about it but honestly, I just couldn’t seem to find the words. I kept starting posts and not being able to finish them, or just getting…

The Ex-Factor

If you’ve been following me on Twitter, you’ll know that Someone New, or SN, is back in the picture. It’s happened slowly and over time, innocent chat followed by cute kisses at the end of a wonderful coffee date, our sorry’s said and the past left behind us. But is it?  *Find the back story here: This is Why We’re Breaking Up I haven’t had the best track record when it comes to ‘getting back with the ex’ as it were. In fact, every time I’ve attempted this before, it’s…

Second Date (Round Two) With Someone New

A year ago, Someone New and I started dating. About six months ago, we broke up. Now… We’re trying again. I think. Last night I had my second date (round two) with Someone New. The plan was to meet him at 6pm from his work, go for something to eat, have a couple of drinks (non-alcoholic of course) and I’d head home for about 1030pm to finish off editing some work with a deadline of midnight. Ha! Well, I was an hour late for a start. I don’t know how…
