I like a guy; we get on really well as friends and have loads in common. We’ve been flirty for a while and he confided in a friend that likes me. We were out a few weeks ago and ended up in bed together. Last weekend we were out in Brighton with friends. He challenged…

A Stranger’s Judgements
Last night, I took a cab home. The meter started at £2.20. I was making small talk with the driver. He asked how my night was, what I’d been doing and who I’d been with. I asked how his night was. By £4.10 he was asking about my social life, whether I was out with…
Rebounding
This year I’ve learnt a lot about what I want from a partner: someone kind, ambitious and who I’m attracted to as well as they’re attracted to me. I’ve been seeing a guy for a few months now and we’ve progressed into relationship territory. After I broke up with my ex, mutual friends kept saying…

New City, New Start
Match.com has gone. POF has gone. And although I’m still single, I’m relieved that my junk inbox is no longer filled with constant notifications of blokes winking at me or wanting to meet me. Despite many people’s reservations about the shagging app Tinder, it’s been my trusty companion during the turmoil caused by POF and…
