There was an instant attraction between the first guy and me. It happened once, then it happened again, and again and again. Love developed (at least on my side). Sadly, this man had someone else. Of course, she’s a sexy Spaniard – he is a marvellous Mancunian. An attraction based on friendship, fuelled by alcohol…

Facing Reality
In a moment of weakness, I texted my ex the other day. This time last year, he told me he had got his act together. He said he stopped all the drugs and alcohol and had a better job. We know this only lasted two weeks but scrolling through his social media the other day,…
Do I Wanna Know?
/Do I wanna know, if this feeling flows both ways?/ Yes, I do want to know.  It’s killing me not knowing what’s inside your head.  The messages you give off are so conflicting. /Sad to see you go, was sorta hoping that you’d stay…/ We have so much fun when you stay.  Please don’t leave….
A Playlist to Feel Fabulous
Recently, men have been getting me down. Â I’ve become prematurely excited about multiple boys and then felt disappointed. So in a bid to get a grip and feel more like myself again, I’ve created a Power Playlist on my iPhone. Â We all know how music can affect our moods, and being sad is not a…

Future Plans
In dating and relationships, I’m a real advocate of honesty being the best policy.  While it’s not fun learning that someone isn’t into you it’s helpful to know. Similarly, facing the reality that a relationship has run its course can feel depressing but it’s pointless flogging a dead horse.  It can be nerve-wracking considering the…
Needing and Wanting
I think it’s much better to be wanted than needed but is it rude to tell someone you don’t need them? Here’s why I don’t need you: I can cook well I drive myself around and sort out any issues with my car I have my own social life I’m happy to go to a…
A Letter to My Ex
Dear You, The summer was confusing. I missed you and you confessed you still loved me. We nearly met up to see if we could rekindle things. We didn’t meet – thank God. Being friends wasn’t going to happen, was it? At least not yet. And anyway, I was seeing someone (admittedly I wasn’t as…
The Nightmare of Syncing Orgasms
You’re having hot sex with someone you find terribly attractive. You’re feeling confident, sexy and sexually skilled. He seems confident, you find him sexy and he’s certainly sexually skilled. The build-up was perfect, you’ve both been anticipating this moment for some time, the candles are lit, the music is on and the housemates are out….
