One door closes another one opens.

So it seems ive been a busy single girl since my last blog post. On the same night my pof date cancelled I started talking to a little cutey on tinder. Yep, you read that right.  I had an actual conversation with a mutual like. Avid tinder users will know that the excitement you first got when you started using this dating app soon wore off after you realised the likelihood of receiving a message off the majority of matched guys is slim. So anyway,  this guy started messaging me and we hit it off straight away before I knew it we had exchanged texts and arranged to meet up a couple of days later. He ticked all the boxes, so far! Own house, great job (he is a maths teacher) and he came across as a genuinely nice guy! The following day we spent texting back and forth then decided to chat on the phone later that evening.  2 hours later the phone call was over, I was ready to bed and I was really looking forward to meeting him the next day. It was a quick drink in a pub before I met a friend at the gym – word of advice,  dont drink a glass of rose before hitting the gym, it doesn’t help! So an hour or so after meeting,  a couple of cheeky kisses later and date 2 in the bag I was off to the gym with a huge grin on my face. Obviously that made my friend wonder what the hell was up with me so we spent an hour gossiping about the teacher – and burning calories,  of course!
Date two was for the Friday, 3 days later. We spent the next few days on the phone talking pretty much every second of the day. I felt like id known him forever. Friday come came along and he picked me up and toom me into Manchester for food and drinks.  He doesn’t know Manchester all that well so it was up to me to pick the venue.  We went to a lovely Italian – my fave. Id been to don marcos before so knew it wouldn’t disappoint. After food we went over to eperney for a cocktail – candy shop is definitely worth a try. When it was time to go home he dropped me off and again arranged date 3. If im honest im not used to a guy being that keen that he arranges another date with me before one is over. Date three was for Sunday, he was cooking for me! I was working on the sunday so had to go after work,  knowing that it was the 3rd date and,  well, you know, the 3rd date rule and all that I wanted to make sure I looked smoking hot. Knowing that he loved it when girls wear stockings I obviously had to see him driven crazy didnt I. So off I went to his house, make up touched up, hold ups on and im my work uniform looking all business women like. He was mid cooking tea seen as I was late because of traffic, he gave me the grand tour of his house whilst the carrots were boiling.  As soon as we got into his room I knew I wouldn’t be leaving any time soon,  especially as it didn’t take him long to realise I had the hold ups on. Ive never seen a man fly down the stairs so quick to get to an oven. So carrots off, no danger of his house burning down we got down to the dirty! Oh my, I have to say for our first time it was amazing.  I’ll go as far to say – the best ive had! Ive heard people say before that some people just fit – well it was just like that. He definitely fitted my puzzle piece thats for sure! Tea eaten, a glass of rose wine drank and 3 visits to his bedroom it was time for me to be getting myself home. I was bloody shattered.  I was definitely sleeping like a baby that night! Date four, obviously arranged too. This guy couldn’t get enough of me! Tuesday was date four and we were going watching transformers.  He told me he was going to be good because he didn’t want me thinking he was just after sex – truth is I didn’t want him to be good – and I knew he wouldn’t stick to it. 5 mins after I arrived at his he couldn’t keep his hands off me! So that was my 4 dates. 4 dates is a lot in just a week. I had a bit of one of my wobbles yesterday were I started to think I didn’t like him,  im not sure if its that I don’t think were matched or that im scared that ill get hurt. I tried to say we were best stopping speaking but he was having none of it. Sooo that’s where im up to. No 5th dates been organised so it’s a case of seeing what happens I guess….

Back in the swing if things.

Well its been about 2 months since splitting up with the copper so I thought it was about time I got back on the horse as they say. I started off just with tinder, enjoying their menu of guys again although I was mostly swiping left than right. Seriously is this all the single dudes im left with?? I had one guy starting talking to me because he wanted more snapchat friends and one 23 year old calling me a cougar……im 20 bloody 7!
My next stop was okcupid and plenty of fish – I obviously haven’t learned my lesson on the types of guys that message me on here! When will I learn. But, after all im not gonna meet a guy sat on my sofa ive gotta find ways of letting the universe bring me my mr right haven’t I! Here’s just a couple of my messages ive received. …
