How It Feels to Never Be The One
It’s been a long time since I’ve started typing without knowing where a post is going. But today I decided I just really want to vent to a faceless person rather than have a one on one conversation. I don’t want sympathy, I don’t want someone telling me that how I feel is utter crap. I don’t want someone trying to change my mind. I just want to empty my head in hope that I can function better on a day to day basis. This weekend while miles away from home my first ever crush and first ever heartbreak walked past me at SFCC. He didn’t even recognise me, or…

Father’s Day Gift Guide 2015*
ALL LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. Last month I explored unusual gifts to get your dad this father’s day, but then I remembered I put together a really lovely gift guide for mother’s day and wanted to do the same (it’s only fair, right?) So here is my gift guide for father’s this father’s day. Milk Chocolate Great British Tool Box* £3.50, Retro Sweets. It’s Father’s Day, dad doesn’t want to be cracking on with some DIY, so instead present him with a box of chocolates shaped like a tool box! Not only is it a cute idea, but it’s a product made here in the…

Christmas Ideas for Men (Brothers, Dads, Male Friends etc)
ALL LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER FOR SALE. Every year I say (and write) this, but I find men so incredibly hard to buy for. Luckily I only have my dad, my sister’s boyfriend and my best friend’s boyfriend to buy for. Bee told me what to get her other half thankfully, because otherwise I would have had no idea! Thankfully my sister’s boyfriend and my dad are very into pop culture and geekery meaning I can generally find something that would do for them. Like with all my gift guides the gifts I have chosen are inspired by people I know but this one more so…

WLTM TDH with GSOH* – #3dates3mths 2nd Month Update
*Would like to meet, tall dark and handsome with good sense of humour. Right, I just had this ingenious idea on how I can meet my true love this morning while watching Frozen. I’ve decided I need to get myself cursed by a witch/wizard/aliment.. In fairy tales, Disney movies and even Once Upon a Time, true loves kiss fixes everything. But my theory is that if I get myself cursed then my friends and family line up eligible men to kiss me (I know, what a long shot) and the one that breaks the curse is obviously my true love! Saves all this trying to find dates and uncertainty as…

Dating & The Devil – A #3dates3mths Update
I had a different kind of post to go up this evening but after the events of this week that some of you know about, I felt like for a cathartic experience after a week of bad luck, I needed to address this. I’m going to write about how my last relationship still influences my thoughts and feelings about future relationships. I’m hoping by writing about it, it will put a stop to my bad luck and help me look more positively about the rest of the year. I’m so terrified of the terrible events of 2013, spilling over into 2014. Until this week the year was going so well,…

I’ll Take Waiting Over Settling Any Day of The Week – #3dates3mths 1st Month Update
So it’s been just over a month since I announced my return to the dating game. I say game, although this time around I don’t want to play any bloody games! I have to admit, my fear of the “game playing” is what makes me feel so afraid of starting to date. Last time around my whole life was turned into one big messy game of chess and I don’t want to go back to that again. I’ve been undertaking Just Singles #3dates3mths challenge for over a month now and I have honestly been trying, even to the point of indulging in some harmless stalking! First things first, I managed…
