Friends with Benefits! Yes or No?????

I may not be able to find a permanent man but I certainly get lots of offers from 'friends' who are more than willing to provide a service should I need it!

So is it a good thing or not to have this? Is it not a well known fact that woman are not able to have 'no strings attached fun' without getting emotionally involved and turning into some sort of bunny boiling, don't touch him girls he's mine stalker???

I think that a girl might be able to just have a friend with benefits as long as there is no real attraction there. For example, if I tried this with someone who I completely adored and practised writing my signature using their surname it's likely I would be devastated when he didn't realise I was his one true love, so I think that would be best avoided. But if I took the man's attitude of 'it's just a quick one' and didn't really fancy the bloke then surely I can satisfy a need and it's ok to do this???

Men do this and people pat him on the back and say well done, women do this and people say 'you slaaaaaaaag'.

I think it's completely wrong that women get treated in this way so guess what girls - I'm going to get me a friend!!!! I'm not going to be greedy, one friend will do, so you get all the fun but without all the hassle.

So the lucky fella is........Mr long time ago crush, yet still very hot man !!! Ok I know the name needs work but it's really difficult trying to think of a mysteriously cool name for each man I write about on here!!!

The man in question is a previous work colleague who I don't think has smiled once in the 8 years since I met him. I used to have quite a crush on him, he's very hot but was never interested, however he has now realised the error of his ways and is more than willing to please (on a purely fun basis of course).

Perhaps now I won't be looking, Mr Right will come and find me. So forget looking for love ladies and let the games begin............

Apologies

Apologies for the lack of blog posts recently but I made the decision to stop looking like some stark raving lunatic 'bridget jones' spinster and wait for Mr Right to find me.

In my previous post I mentioned that something else might be on the horizon which I was quite hopeful about but it turned out to be yet another total let down! I returned to my comfort zone of the younger man and he turned out to be a bit of dick! Although he was quite a bit younger than me so perhaps maturity has not yet hit him.

This was the reason I decided to leave the dating scene alone and see what happened.

I've had a few emails on the website which I have looked at but nobody who would float my boat, honestly sometimes I look at these profiles and wonder why on earth they think I would be remotely interested in replying to someone who has written that they want a little bit of naughty fun!

I am however still keen on the speed dating idea and will be attending one on the 15th May which I am very excited about.

On a very different note, some of you may be aware that there is a promotion running with Cadbury Flake to win Benefit lipsticks, I would like to mention that I have bought 2 of these promotional flakes and rather excitingly won 2 lipsticks!!!! Much to the frustration of my fellow blogger 'The Un-working Girl'! I will be wearing one of the colours to the speed dating in the hope they bring me luck :-)

The Webcam

Where do I begin!!!

This happened just over a week ago but I wasn't sure whether to put this on the blog or not as I still can't quite believe it happened myself.

I don't give my personal msn address out to just anyone and believe me on the dating site practically everyone asks for it straight away!! But I had been chatting to someone on there for a while and thought it was ok to give it to him!! WRONG!

We start a conversation and then all of a sudden an invitation to talk on webcam comes up. I don't have a webcam but you can still see the other person without it, stupidly I accept. Instead of seeing a pretty face before me I get........

A gigantic mans genitals staring me in the face!!!!! Yes ladies you did read that correctly, this huge penis was just there in front of me. I could not believe it, but to top it off a hand then appears and well I don't think you need me to explain what happened next. I switched off before I could be disgusted anymore, blocked, deleted. Utterly disgusted and afraid to chat to anyone again!!!

I mean seriously why would someone do that!! I actually felt like I had done something wrong just by seeing it. Why would a man who had never met you before think that is a nice thing to do!! He couldn't even see me so god only knows what he was excited about. Rude, rude man.

I think the dating site is being well and truly left alone now!! Stood up and now perverts.

Besides something else might be on the horizon but I'm not writing about that one just yet........

Fanny Vs Spankey

Well I haven't had any dates nor have I attempted speed dating yet but I thought an update was due.

I haven't mentioned this yet but my alter ego is Spankey McFarlene and I do now have a partner in crime! In the form of Fannny Craddock!!!!

She's not actively seeking a man (like me) but they can't seem to help fall over themselves for her! Seriously she can go out baby sick all over her, hair unwashed and still manage to have a gorgeous hunk falling at her feet!!!

Well of all the lucky blimin things that can happen to her (when she's not looking obviously) - baby's in bed, glass of wine in hand and pj's on, but the fire alarm in her building goes off! She grabs the baby and her house keys, sticking to the rules of not grabbing anything else (on a lighter note I would have grabbed more, like GHD's, make up, and decent outfit) waited outside and along come fit fireman!! I mean come on girls, fire = hot fireman and she didn't think to even slap on a bit of lipgloss! HAVE A WORD!!!!

Once they have checked out the situation and cleared it for re-entry she is allowed to enter the building!! Off she goes to bed!!

Can I add, she doesn't ask for a phone number, a name, a badge number - NOTHING!!!!

Clearly Fanny has learnt nothing from Spankey!!!!

Bodybag?!?!?!?

In a previous post I mentioned I had received a message from someone with the username bodybag... Not the most attractive choice of names but still looked quite nice in his picture so I replied.

We chatted and I ended up going to watch him play rugby on Saturday, why on earth I thought this was a good idea I will never know!!

So there I am with my lovely ugg boots on sludging through the muddy rugby field. I was not impressed, especially as I nearly fell over twice!!!!!!
I watched for a bit and realised his team were completely rubbish!!! By half time they hadn't scored once and I left before I froze in the position I was stood in.
I did let him know I was going and we continued to chat for most of the evening.

Ok so it's going fairly well and as it's bank holiday and we are both going out we agree to meet for a drink!! Not an all night drink as were both out with friends, just a quick hello etc...

Well I turn up with my mate and he is sooooooooooooooooooooo unbelievably drunk!! I mean shouting ugg type noises with his rugby mates at the top of his voice sort of drunk. His mate also took it upon himself to abuse another woman in the beer garden, 'you slagggggg' was one of the nicer comments he used!! Brilliant, I'm on to another one here with a 'crew'!!!!

Anyway we both move onto different pubs and end up meeting again in the final place we go to. We didn't argue, got on ok but left separately (obviously)

I wake up the following morning to 10! yes 10 missed calls from him!!! Blimey was he in trouble? Was he being attacked? No he just wanted to talk apparently!!!! At 3am in the morning!! He is lucky I didn't wake up and answer, I would have been the one doing the blimin talking I can tell you!!!!!!

It would seem that my inability to answer his drunken phone calls has made him decide not to talk to me at all???? I really have no idea what happened but it's all gone to pot and he hasn't txt, called etc.

Was it unreasonable to not answer the phone at 3am??? Should I sleep with the phone right next to my ear, turned up to full volume just incase someone should ring me and confess their love?????

Perhaps it is because I didn't follow the dating advice I was given in work and put out???

I have no idea but another one bites the dust!!!!

Speed Dating

I am seriously considering attempting this, I mean let's face it, things can't get much worse!!

At least I am guaranteed not to be stood up, but do I really want to swap blokes 15 times in one night??!?!?!?!?

I guess its a good idea, I mean if you really can't stand the person at least your only stuck with them for a few minutes.

If it's an actual date and it's not going well you spend ages trying to come up with a good excuse to leave, or praying someone will text or phone you and you can say 'OMG, I have to go, really sorry. I'll call you' and then run as fast as you can away from them, pressing delete contact on your phone as you go.

On the other hand, if speed date number 1 is hot, friendly and your 3 minutes go very well. Why spend another 2 hours of your life you will never get back chatting to 14 other men you really don't want to?

Have any of you ever done this? If so let me know how it went for you.

Date 6

You may have guessed by the lack of post that the date didn't go my way!!

Mr Hot Navy man stood me up for a third time!! When I say stood me up, it wasn't me waiting at the bar like a loser with no idea whether he was going to turn up or not. But it was almost as bad, I was there and then got a phone call from him!! Apparently only just finished work!! Whatever!!

Honestly men are unbelievable!!

Strike 3 mate - no likey, no lighty. I've turned mine off now!!!!

Onto the next one.......
