The minute you get one email, you get loads!!
So after bodybag who actually was quite pretty I might add....
I had another, I opened it and it simply said 'hi, your gorgeous' very kind of him to say so but if I had replied I would have wanted to say 'hi, your not!'
Ok, maybe the next one will be better
"hi, nice profile.... stop by mine and say hello x" how about I stay on the bus and miss that stop!!!
I don't think I am even going to look at the site for the next few days. I am way tooooo over excited about Mr Hot Navy man, its still all on and the time, place etc is arranged. Keep your fingers crossed for me..........

You have mail!
wahoo the blog is attracting readers as I found out in work today.
One of the blokes was quite intrigued who the hot men in a previous post were, I laughed it off and was then totally let down by one of the said hot men and he also gave away the name of Mr Arms!! Thanks for that!!
Anyway just for you (you know who you are) I thought I would write a small addition to the blog partially dedicated to the wonderful advice you gave me earlier. This is yet another hot man at work who gave me his wise words of wisdom
"you just have to dangle the carrot a little and not let them eat the whole thing"
Now I think this man seems to know a thing or two about women and i'm inclined to listen to him (even if he is the biggest wind up merchant you will ever meet), but in all seriousness I think he really knows his stuff. Just to add if you read this, dating advice is the only thing I will ever listen to you about NOTHING else!! lol
Moving on, I came home tonight to see an email from the dating site letting me know I have new mail. Hmmmmm i'll take a look, not arranging anything else while I'm meeting Mr Hot Navy man but decide to just see what I have been sent.
I log in, the username of this person was........ bodybag!!! Need I say more!

Mobile Phones should be left at home!
Hang on I was at home!! Ok then they should be turned off whilst still sober and hidden somewhere you will forget when you have reached the drunken point of wanting to confess your love for someone!!
Last night I had some of my lovely ladies round to have a few drinks, put the world to rights and say how much we love/hate the men folk.
Well I discovered the wonder that is Amaretto & coke!! I also discovered this drink enables me to divulge various feelings etc to people that really shouldn't be in the know.
Without going into too much detail I had a rather drunken conversation with a particular somebody and I don't remember a great deal about it but I'm pretty sure I said some things I woke up this morning feeling very foolish about. Now if i'd listened to myself and hid the phone I would have not been able to answer the call. But no, I ignored my own advice and thought I knew best!
I have sent a text this morning apologising for my drunken state - I've heard nothing back.......

Potentially date 6
OMG just when I am starting to think that all men are disasters and there is no hope Mr HOT navy man emails me. Now girls I don't just mean HOT I mean premiership footballer lookalike hot.
I actually cannot believe he has messaged me! This looks like the type of guy I would see on the website, get way to overexcited about and message only to see in my sent items UNREAD - DELETED.
But no, he messaged me! Whoop whoop
Anyway getting on with the story, he's within my age range, in the navy and proper gorgeous. We speak quite a bit and he seems lovely, even told me I was beautiful. I will be sending him to the opticians shortly!
We arrange our 1st date for the following Saturday evening. I get all worked up about it, broadcast it to everyone I know and have a crisis situation about what to wear. This is the Monday before the big day by the way!
Tuesday arrives and he texts me in the evening, OH NO!! He has to go to away with work on the Thursday and won't be back until the following Friday. There was no way I was turning that frown upside down after that I can tell you! G.U.T.T.E.D
Never mind, he is still sending me lovely texts and wants to see me when he gets back.
Fast forward to the following week....
The Saturday morning I hear from him and he wants to see me that night!!!!!!! I can't believe it wahoooooooooooo. Then an hour later I receive another message, he can't make it boooooooooooooooooo
He isn't orignally from here and had to go back home for a family birthday and he has only just remembered. What he neglected to tell me was he was up there for a week!!
So here we are nearing the end of that week, another date has been arranged for Wedneday next week so I will keep you posted. 3rd time lucky we might actually get to meet this time!!!!

Date 5 - Mr Forgetful
Right I decide I need to lower my standards a bit, maybe extend the age range slightly. I've received a message from a 35 year old, quite good looking and seems really nice so I agree to a date with him.
I'm not overly excited about it, which is wrong I know but I'm just not sure about how much I will have in common with someone 9 years older than me! But I want to give him the chance, as I have said before I haven't been out with anyone older so I may like what I find.
Anyway it was date day and i'm meant to be meeting him at 7pm, I hadn't heard from him for a few days and I'm wondering if the date is still on. After speaking to one of my date specialists in work he says text him now (3pm) so I do.
I ask "are we still on for tonight", about 5 minutes later this is the reply
"Ummmm, yes & no.
I have football tonight until 830pm
So I can meet you after or at 530pm?"
Sorry but who on earth goes on a date at 530pm??
My reply was short and to the point explaining I can do neither due to 530 being too early and I have to leave at 930 to be back for the babysitter!
No reply from him!!!!!
Later that evening at exactly what should have been date time I receive a message from him explaining that he does want to meet me.
Not that i'm a sarcastic little madamme but I couldn't resist mentioning in my reply that I thought he was meant to be at football not on the computer!!
Anyway turns out he had FORGOTTEN!!!! all about out little rendeavour, how charming. So if I hadn't text him I would have been stood up for the second time!! Amazing
Needless to say I haven't got back to him about a next time

So far
1st dates - Total including being stood up, deleted & drunken night out 5
2nd Dates - Still 0!!!!
2nd Dates - Still 0!!!!
Date 4 or not as the case maybe
In my confusion I actually forgot about this guy, he was actually supposed to be date 2. Before I even tell you the story you can guess it went well.
Ok, so dating site, I receive a message from a guy with no picture. Hmmmm never sure that's a good start, what are they hiding?
I carry on the conversation with him anyway, he's seem nice, he's a fireman (get that uniform on wahooo) so I ask him for a pic. He sends me one, hmmm not bad at all.
Date is arranged for the following Friday, leading up to date night he's texting me every day. I always try to wait for the guy to text me first, is that the right thing to do?
Anyway I'm moving away from the story, we become friends on a well known social networking site, yay more pictures. He is actually alot hotter than I thought, wahoo.
On the wednesday before I got a txt
"Really sorry, I know you have got a sitter but I've just had a call and have to work overtime, can't make Friday"
So I reply with 'no worries' however wanting to give him the opportunity to back out completly I ask if it thats the truth or if he had just changed his mind.
He said he hasn't and he really does have to work, brilliant so the date is arranged for the week after next
Then the texts stop, no reply to mine? Hmmmm what's that about, so I look on the social networking site to find he has actually deleted me!
So what happened there then?? I have no idea!!! So forget not making it to any 2nd dates this one didn't even get to the 1st!!!

Dating Advice
Well 2 of the hottest guys in work , one of whom has particularly amazing arms (I have a thing about arms which I'm sure I will go into at a later date) gave me the first set of advice.
Now I really thought I knew a thing or two about dating but evidently not. Men according to these 2 don't care about much else other than a bit of naughtiness.
Firstly the goodnight kiss, if he doesn't offer then I should say 'so do I get a goodnight kiss?' Now correct me if i'm wrong but am I not opening myself up to rejection by doing this? What if he says no, how embarrassing would that be!
Me - So then, how about a goodnight kiss?
Him - No chance love, on your bike!
Not sure about that one
Secondly if I 'put out' on the first date I'm guaranteed to see him again!
Now I thought that if I did the deed straight away men would lose all respect for me? So your comments please, is this the case or not?
I believe one of the descriptions from mr arms was "yep, do it straight away, with me no messing just out and out carnage"!!!
Personally that statement actually scares me a little, not sure carnage was on the agenda when I started thinking about moving on.
The following day some more advice from 2 other men in work, one of whom is my boss, total opposite, according to them I should defintely not even consider that on the first date. Also when deciding what to wear, black should be avoided as it's the colour you wear to a funeral!
More confusion.
So now I'm left with a total dilemma, who's right? Who's wrong? I'm hoping I will get some advice from you guys before the next date otherwise I could be in a tricky situation attempting to decide on my own.

Mr Army continued
Ok so Mr Army man is on r&r for 2 weeks, I speak to him a couple of days after that night.
Me - Hey, what a great night saturday, do you fancy meeting up before you go back
Army Man (took hours to reply) - Yeah it was a laugh, not sure what I'm up to yet but if I get some free time i'll let you know.
Not quite the answer I was looking for, as it turned out he went back never to be seen again... letdown
I'm sure my kissing wasn't that bad, my breath didn't smell and he had a 2nd kiss so what was it? Don't think i'm ever likely to find out either, needless to say I was very disappointed over this one, very hot, very nice guy. Ok, not nice enough to see me again but still a nice guy.
Hmmm I think im going to give up on men soon, I just don't understand them. How cool does a girl have to play it? How much or how little do they want?
I ask the men in work what a girl should do on the first date.......

Saturday night
Ok, so i'm dolled up to the nines and out with some girlfriends. We are in a well known pub in town and I see HIM!! OMG what do I do, do I go and say hello? Do I walk around nearby in the hope he will see me, come running over and kiss me passionately?
No I decide to go and dance like a raving lunatic by myself! My friends don't do dancing and so I took it upon myself to show them how fun it was to dance by yourself, showing off my rather glamourous drunken moves! Ha
After working up a rather attractive sweat on the dancefloor and drinking several vodka's I go to the bar for another. Then... there he is, right beside me at the bar. Ahhh what do I say? As it turned out the conversation consisted of "hey, how are you?" then he promtly kissed me. Result! Fireworks, earth moving all that stuff, then my mate comes over to tell me she's off!
Mr Army man - disappears
I continue my night ending up in a nightclub dancing with my best mates brother, so drunk were we that the baywatch song up on the stage seemed like a good idea at the time...
Just as Im about to go home Army man is right there beside me again, yay kiss number 2!

School days
Im rather excited everytime I log in to find another new message from him, he's in the forces and away at the moment but that doesn't stop me getting maybe a little too overexcited.
He tells me he is home in a couple of weeks, seeing my opportunity I ask him if he wants to meet for a catch up as it has been several years since we last spoke.
He agrees, roll on 2 weeks time! I give him my number for when he's back so he can let me know.
I spend the next 2 weeks with a smile on my face, then he comes home

Can't take no for an answer
You would think that the ending to date 3 would have been a clue as to whether there would be a 2nd date wouldn't you?!
Well apparently not, for the following messages we will call him Mr X
Mr X - When can I see you again
Me - I'm really not looking for anything more, just going to enjoy the single life I think (that's a nice letdown isn't it?)
Mr X - ok
Later on that day
Mr X - So can I take you out for a meal
Me - Sorry, as I said earlier Im not really looking for more
Mr X - ok
The following day
Mr X - Hi, can I take you to watch a film next week
Me - No!
How many more times?! In the end I had several more offers like this and I had to be rather blunt with him.
I thought it was women who were meant to turn slightly stalkerish and not take no for an answer. But then I guess Mr X wasn't your average bloke, I have to say I was slightly scared of rejecting him incase I was linched by 'the crew' but I had to take my chance.
In the meantime I receive a message on my account from an old school friend, who may I say is extremely hot! My luck's in wahooooo........

Date 3
Well didn't I feel like a prize pillock stood at the bar of an almost empty pub with only the 90 year old regulars using the bar to prop themselves up to keep me company.
After this last nightmare of being stood up, I wasn't so sure about carrying on with this dating malarky but I don't want to end up a spinster so after a few days I logged onto my account on the dating site. Excellent I have some messages, after speaking to someone on a few occasions I agree to a date.
We meet up, have a few drinks and quite a laugh actually. Ok, he's not really my type but still it's a fun evening. He suggests moving on, we do. I was quite drunk at this point and think that can be the only thing that got me through the rest of the evening.
We went to some back street pub and walking into it felt like walking into the film 'football factory'. Once inside I am introduced to how he affectionately referred to them as 'his crew', thinking I had misheard I said ' I'm sorry'. Once again he repeated it, OMG he's serious!! The crew even came complete with a little minature Noel Gallagher wannabe, who even spat on the floor for me! Make no mistake 'if the crew diss me, he'd chin em'! My hero!!
He asks what I want to drink "double vodka, quickly please"!
A little later, mini Noel even kicks off so much he gets chucked out, I think my date was even going to put on the little show of chinning him for me until he could see I was totally unimpressed. 'I'm off to the loo' I say, observently he says "your not coming back are you" "NOPE" and with that Im away.

Date 1!!
Ok so first big decision is what to wear.... after spending the previous Friday at my friends trying on all her clothes I finally decide on an outfit wahoooo. Then change it on the night!
I'm meeting him there and turn up fashionably late - well 3 minutes, that's ok isn't it??
As he comes towards me, he's not as hot as I thought he was!! OMG what am I going to do??? Don't get me wrong, looks are definately not everything, however there needs to be some sort of physical attraction doesn't there. There definately wasn't!
So anyway I can't be rude and we go inside to eat, I can't look him in the eye!! What do we talk about?? Phew we've ordered, ok lets fill some gaps while we are waiting for the food. ummmmmmmm, ahhhhhhh, hmmmmm oh dear, not going well. Yay the food's here.
Brilliant, now he starts a conversation. I have a mouthful of food and he wants to yap!! So in between avoiding dribbing sauce down my chin and not spraying him with a mouthful of food I politely answer his questions. How long have you been single? How olds your child?? What do you do for a job? etc, etc... Oh look, foods gone, conversation stops!!!
Rather uncomfortably the bill comes - DATE OVER!!
I come home and receive a text, without revealing too much he thought it had gone extremely well and wanted to know when he could move in! Number deleted!

Welcome
Hello and welcome to my blog. The blog will detail each date I arrange, have and how they go. So far I haven't got past the first date with anyone!!!! Now you will see there have been a few dates over the next few posts, this blog has only just popped into my head so am updating you all on my dating disasters so far.
I had no idea the dating scene was so hard, at the tender age of 26 I thought I was still in my prime but it would appear not. Normally I like to go for younger men, however I want all reminders of my ex to disappear so thought I would go for a total change and try, for once in my life 'the older man'! Now when I say older I mean my age or perhaps up to 30 so im not pushing myself too far out of my comfort zone. However it would appear that it's not that easy.
When I first split up with my ex, somebody I worked with at the time could not understand why I was so upset but then came out with the classic line "well I suppose it must be hard, at your age there isn't many single men around anymore is there"!!! Charming!! Needless to say I no longer work for this company, but it would seem she was actually right!
I left this company knowing that my new job had only 2 other women in it and the rest were all men. 'ideal' i thought, there's bound to be a hot man waiting for me. WRONG!!! Don't get me wrong there are lots of hot men there's just not one single one!! Not one of the men I work with is detached!! Can you believe it!
So my next step.. a dating site...........

When I first split up with my ex, somebody I worked with at the time could not understand why I was so upset but then came out with the classic line "well I suppose it must be hard, at your age there isn't many single men around anymore is there"!!! Charming!! Needless to say I no longer work for this company, but it would seem she was actually right!
I left this company knowing that my new job had only 2 other women in it and the rest were all men. 'ideal' i thought, there's bound to be a hot man waiting for me. WRONG!!! Don't get me wrong there are lots of hot men there's just not one single one!! Not one of the men I work with is detached!! Can you believe it!
So my next step.. a dating site...........
