You might be feeling nervous and wondering what you should do and what you should avoid when speed dating, and maybe getting yourself all worked up, but there’s no need.

“I Hope it Wasn’t Too Weird :)”
Last weekend, I went on a date with a guy I had met in real life rather than through a dating app. (The first date I’ve had of this sort since July when I met The Wrong Guy.) When we first met, he was fun, flirty, confident and attractive, so I asked if he wanted…

Date Week – Continued
So I went on the date. I was going to cancel but my friend convinced me otherwise. I’m thrilled I didn’t cancel; what a guy! There was an instant, mutual attraction. We have lots in common and the conversation flowed beautifully. He didn’t agree with everything I had to say; he challenged me and we…
Date Week
1. First online blind date in a while. I feel excited about this one (he’s attractive in his photos and he seems fun). Unfortunately, he doesn’t really look like his photos and he doesn’t seem like he’d be much fun. In fact, I don’t think he fancies me – he doesn’t look me in the…

A Chilled Date
I felt reluctant to go on last night’s date. I matched with him on Bumble and we exchanged numbers after a day or so. We had been texting back and forth and decided to meet. I was pleasantly surprised when we met – his photos didn’t do him justice. He was friendly and bought me…
The Bar Man
We’ve known each other for ages through family circles and have exchanged flirty messages for months. We finally met up for a date a few weeks ago – right when I felt I had enough with guys and needed to inject some fun back into my life. The date was so easy and knowing you’re…
Feeling Unsafe on Home Soil
I have never felt unsafe in Brighton, but last night I was walking the three-minute walk from the pub to the taxi rank and a bloke called after me. We didn’t know one another but he caught up with me and we shared a conversation. He asked where I was going. Home. Can he come?…
The Canadian
There was an understated coolness about you. Much to my surprise, you weren’t surrounded by girls or friends. I can’t remember who approached whom, but I do remember laughing a lot and the seductive stares that lasted a fraction too long to account for polite company. We went bar-hopping around my favourite places in Brighton;…
