Ain't nobody got time for that...

After I was left a little confused by the first guy I met from RSVP, I wasn't that sure that online dating was a good thing to continue with, but was convinced by friends that really how else was I going to meet people out of my comfort zone. So I continued on and started emailing Adam the geologist from the UK.
 
During this time I was trying to email 3 or 4 people at any time because I didn't want to put all my eggs in one basket like I had with the first one, Geoff the builder.
 
Adam seemed nice and relatively normal, after a week of emailing we exchanged phone numbers and attempted to set up a date. It proved difficult to set up a date with him as he was 'SO BUSY' and then it was a long weekend, I was going away down south with my family for Easter, so we sort of made plans for a drink on the Monday afternoon.
 
This is when things started to get a bit weird, I had told him I was out with friends having a few drinks so I wouldn't be able to text him (because you shouldn't drunk text) he then continued to text me and CALLED me (big no no in my eyes). By the time he had called me 3 times, drunk me had decided to answer the phone and have a chat with him, now I didn't remember 99% of the conversation 2 minutes after I'd hung up, but what I do remember is that he sounded like James from Geordie Shore and I'm pretty sure I told him that many times. His voice was not appealing to me at all, but I thought I'd still give him a chance and meet for a drink.
 
The Monday rolled around and by 12pm there were no solid plans to meet up around 2/3pm like we'd tentatively booked in, although he had been texting me ALL day Sunday.  So I cancelled it, used some lame excuse - don't remember what it was, and caught up with a friend instead.  He didn't really seem bothered that I'd cancelled but then said we'll arrange another time... again no solid plans.
 
I had decided over the weekend with the amount of contact he insisted on that he was definitely a textophile, someone more interested in texting than meeting.
 
A few days later and after I had been on a date with Ian the accountant, I decided to cut away Adam, it was all too hard to just set up a time for a drink let alone what it would've been like to try and see him frequently.
 
I will admit that he has tried to contact me a couple of times since but I'm not having a bar of it - ain't nobody got time for a textophile!

Where The Energy Is At

Image
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

Image
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 hone...
