Well that's just plain RUDE!

Things reached a whole new level with my dating the other day... And it wasn't a high level that's for sure!! 

I've recently gone back on oasis because I do genuinely want to meet someone and dirty tinder isn't the place for it, ok ok I've known this for a while, but I'm lazy. 

So I got my oasis on and have found a few people to meet, which kind of renews my hope in finding love. 

First there was James - an entrepreneur, who had a farm in the wheatbelt, lots of positives in my eyes, especially given I grew up on a farm! We had made plans for drinks Thursday night that got pushed back to Sunday as he had to work late, so tentative plans for a casual afternoon drink were made. 

Second there was Jamie - a tradie, who wanted to meet new people and see what happens like me. We'd also made plans for Sunday, but they were solid, a date booked for 2pm at the Como. Hmm I hate the Como, but thought maybe they've renovated and it was better (totally wrong there it's still horrid!)

Thirdly there was Chris - a property valuer, with a 4 year old daughter, hmm I wasn't sure but hey I thought I'd give it a go as the banter was good. 

I hesitated on making solid plans with James and Chris after Id already made plans with Jamie, didn't want to have to leave a good date suddenly for another date, that's just awkward to explain. 

So there I am all prettied up, ready to meet a new guy and walking around the Como looking for him. I had messaged him in the morning to confirm the plans and they'd been confirmed, but he wasn't at the Como... 

Maybe he was late? It's possible, but nope after 15-20 minutes, no word from him when I messaged and he was definitely not there, I realised Id been STOOD UP!!! First time ever!!

I suppose after however many dates I've been on I should've expected this to happen at some point, but I've always been polite enough to cancel earlier in the day when I wasn't interested, but would never just not show up, so hadn't thought someone would do it to me. 

It was actually pretty hurtful and made me wonder what was wrong, but when I saw he was online on oasis later that day, I just got angry and deleted him quick smart! So after being stood up I text the other two with tentative plans to see if they were free.

Well James replied about 8 hrs later saying he was busy - he's totally out given there had been tentative plans and hadn't followed up to book in something solid! 

Then there was Chris, he was happy to hear from me and immediately made plans for dinner. The date was super fun that's for sure, and I think I'll see him again.

But wow I'm still shocked that Jamie could be so rude... Just not right!

Where The Energy Is At

Lately I've seen a few people I follow and know talking about, on social media, embracing and igniting their feminine energy and feeling a huge shift in their lives by doing this. Which made me curious about my own energy and where it's at... so I got googling and reading because I honestly knew nothing about it. Any one who's read The Secret will actually know what I'm talking about as this all comes from the law of gender... unfortunately before now it didn't interest me. Just to be clear for those who haven't heard of this concept before, I'm not talking about physical or emotional genders or even sexuality, I'm talking about the energy we engage, focus on, hold, play in or however you want to call it. We've all heard of alpha males right? Well that comes from the masculine energy that someone holds. Immediately I realised from reading just one paper on this (I have read many more), that I engage my masculine energy, probably a solid 90% of t

A number with too much meaning

Let's get very real right now and I'll admit I'm uncomfortable writing this... I've been holding off on telling anyone about completing my first 16 week challenge with nutritional cleansing and 8 week F45 challenge because I'm straight out ashamed that I didn't achieve everything I wanted. To the point that I skipped out on having my body scan because I didn't want to know the results, didn't want to know if the kilos I'd gained were muscle or fat, didn't want anyone around me to know the numbers.  I know this may sound ridiculous, but if you've battled with your weight and obsessed about it for years like I have, then you know it's a very slippery slope back to where you began and gaining a couple of kilos is the very scary start. I want to be completely honest right now  because I know I'm not the only one who's done things or may do something like this in the future. I'm not the only one who's weight has gone up and dow

Ego v Romantic Interest

This blog started out as being about my life, everything as a whole, but over time it turned into a dating blog as I had become a serial dater and it was the highlight of my life for a period when I was unhappy in SO many other parts of my life. Like hating my job, spending time with friends to avoid spending time with myself, training at the gym a lot to try and get the body that I thought would make me happy and that I was 'closet eating' by lying to myself about what was going in my mouth. So dating guys and being the judgy mcjudge pants chick that I used to be was amusing and kept me distracted from those other things. I decided that it was time to work on me so 2016 is about me, my health, my dreams and goals, and since the beginning of this year, since moving to Sydney, it would appear from this blog that I wasn't getting amongst the dating scene much because I had been too busy working on me, but to be completely honest, I've dabbled in dating. I went on
