In the words of Mr.T "I pity the fool!"

Yesterday whilst having a moan to my friend about the rather clingy men in my life at the moment, I remember how she laughed as she asked me with astonishment 'i dont know what you do to these men'. As I smiled to myself I innocently responded 'i do nothing'.

The thing is I seriously do nothing except maybe refuse to give them my heart, which is currently under lock and key indefinetely. It is no secret that I am yet to meet a man who can bypass not only my blase attittude, but the thorned bushes, and the crocodile filled moat currently surrounding my soft heart- and in the words of Mr.T " I pity the fool" who would try too.

My attitude is bourne of the fact that I do not allow myself to care enough when it comes to whether a guy calls me again after a date. As long as we have a good time together, I expect nothing afterwards. I think it is because I never have any expectations, nor do I ask the kind of questions that guys usually find intrusive but expect girls to ask. This has led to the guys in my life trying to figure me out. One had the audacity to refer to me as 'cold', moi?

When out with guys I choose to watch their body language it certainly tells me a heck lot more than the words that leave their lips.

Finally, I know that my rather 'whatever' attitude with guys could be one of the reasons why I am still venturing all disorientated in Singles Land. In my sometimes warped mind of dating according to moi, I look at it this way, why would I give a guy the kind of power that he could potentially use to crush me with? Why in the world would I give him the kind of control over my heart which will allow him to control my emotions and turn me into a quibling mess? I am yet to meet a man who is worth the potential heartache and who makes me want to risk my sanity for him! Reggie Bush where are you???lol

So on a serious note, and in answering my friend's question, I am no puppet master and I honestly do nothing to these men. They choose to indulge in the impossible quest of trying to chase and catch my heart finding themselves between a rock and a hard place. They have a better chance of finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow then holding my very fragile heart in the palm of their hands. Bring on any man who thinks he can, I will graciously accept the challenge.

Good kisses win you brownie points

I wish I could make a large sign to tie around my neck that says
"good kisses win you brownie points".


Worry not, there is a reason to my madness. The last guy (mister bad boy aka the puerto rican) I was seeing (although I must admit that I still occasionally see him whenever the mood strikes me) always kissed me in a way that involved a lot of dribble and tongue grabbing.


He kissed like a Dyson hoover that would not quit. It was awful, and I would never wish it upon anyone, even my worst enemy.

Ok this is how the kissing happens. He would start of slow (I do love a slow and tender start) for about 10 seconds. Then just as I am starting to enjoy kissing him, he grabs my tongue with his and pulls it into his mouth where he holds it hostage.


As I try to break free he holds the back of my head so I can barely move as he sucks the life out of my tongue. I feel like he is literally giving me oral, but that he forgot what lips he was satisfying. Okay that was a bit vulgar, but it had to be said- now I am sure you get where I am coming from.


When I finally broke free from the oral Shawshank, I was panting and exhausted and all he could do was lick his lips, smile and say "now wasn't that worth the wait". As the feeling returned to my tongue I gave him the "you got to be kidding" look which he stupidly mistook for agreeing that yes it was good.


So why do I still "occassionally" still see him, well I am a half glass full type girl and I am hoping that he will get better. Ok thats like a tad exaggeration- I am just bididng my time and waiting for something better to come along. I mean he is a bad kisser but I am debating whether it is better to be kissed even if it is bad, or to never be kissed at all. Well heres hoping that a good kisser will come along soon, as my tongue can only take so much and anywho I want to start handing out some brownie points!!!

Going forward...

Turning 31 has bought about a reflective mood. I have made birthday resolutions- similar to new years resolutions but made on your birthday.

(1) to take myself out once a week, whether it be to dinner or for a drink. Think dinner at Nobu or drinks at the Hilton hotel's 28th floor.

(2) to put in place monthly rituals with each of my close friends and sister, whether it be brunch every last sunday of the month, a shopping trip, cinema or dinner at mine.

(3) to have one nice holiday a year. Somewhere where there is a beach and mojitos.

(4) to travel to a different city every 2months for the weekend. Think rome, istanbul, madrid.

(5) to live for the moment and stop analysing everything. I must remember that everyones 5 year plan is adjustable.

(6) appreciate my parents even more!!!

(7) finally work towards getting that hot body, so i can fit into my size 10 (i am a size 12UK/ 8 US) Jasmine Di Milo gown because i hear wedding bells could be in the not so distant future of some friends.

(8) Find a man worthy of me, and who i can marry and make beautiful babies with.

(9) hope to continue to look at my recent tattoo lovingly as i currently do, as me and this baby are together for life!

(10) start to plan my next birthday party (which along with my JLR friend whose b.day is 2 days after mine) because its going to be in Miami baby!
