The impact of social media has been huge. So life changing, such an advancement for the world, absolutely incredible, just so amaz – Oh, he just opened my story about my bowl of Cheerios. Cool. There have been many times where I have contemplated what my twenties would have been like without social media, particularly […]
How do you properly prepare for the first meeting after a breakup? I don’t know about you, but the words “Hi, how are you?” are certain to roll off my tongue as “Habajkyjsjfh – you?” And that’s assuming I make it that close to him, which is very bold of me to assume considering that […]
Hi guys! I wanted to write this post incase anyone can relate to it as I’m sure many of us are in the same boat. I don’t know about you, but I feel completely burnt out at the moment. My mental health isn’t at its best at all. I’m feeling quite anxious and down, and […]
It was a jeans and a nice top kind of night. I found myself drinking with friends… and him. The ex-something? Ex-everything? Anyway, I was far from ecstatic about the whole setting and knew I had to be on my best behaviour before pint number three started asking him if he had ever thought about […]
When you see the guy who crushed your heart when you’re out in public, you can do one of two things – Say “hello” calmly and maturely, or do what I do and hide in the car footwell muttering: “Crap, crap, CRAP!!” until he disappears. “Hello” wasn’t an option here, I was half-way through a […]
Modern dating is like a skyscraper where elevators don’t exist. Each floor is another level, but we rarely make it to the top because we’re bloody exhausted from trying to climb all the other levels. Somewhere around floor 52, you are approaching “exclusive.” By now you are so far away from your mum who was […]
I was in my usual Saturday night spot, feeling great, single and free as a bird. Walking through the smoking area, I saw the guy I fancied. Cue 80s lovesong playlist. Could the night get any more perfect? Sally Hansened to the core, boobs pushed up to my chin, eyelashes still in place, it had […]
My mum is always on the hunt for the man of my dreams. I don’t really know why, grandchildren or something I guess? Or she is sick to death of listening to tales from my tragic life? She somehow tries to find him in every situation, a modern dating sniffer dog you may say. For […]
Daylight crept in slowly and quietly, just like the realisation. He pulled me in closer, the realisation hadn’t hit him yet, or had it? He was in that dreamy state of morning intoxication while I reflected on why that feeling always consumed me whenever he was near. Here we were again, each other’s worst habit, […]
“Is there a rash?” I demanded to know, before my friend started examining my lip in a bathroom cubicle. 30 minutes previously I had been chatting to a stranger on a couch, and now here I was, convinced he had taken half of my face with him when he went outside for a smoke. It […]
“Get up, I have to be there at 9!” I was dressed and ready for the appointment he was supposed to be walking me to. His get up and go exceptionally low as he stayed there, corpse like and shook at 8:35. There were many reasons we weren’t working out, and this was one of them. […]
I was two glasses of wine and one Easter egg deep by the time I reached “Why didn’t you write me?” Once again, like many Friday nights before, I had found myself absorbed by the love story of The Notebook’s Noah and Allie. Always being a romantic at heart, I began thinking about my own […]
It was a slow Saturday, the wind blowing outside and the rain gliding off the window. My phone had buzzed with a name I hadn’t heard in a while. It wasn’t the name of a great, life changing love, or a deep impact, just a great kiss from a faded Saturday night. We spoke for […]
Hey guys! Of course I am very aware that life feels a bit chaotic at the moment with everything that is going on in the world. If you’re anything like me, you have probably been reading many news stories and freaking out a little, or a lot. I’m an anxious person anyway, so I do […]
Why am I writing this post, you may wonder? Well if the fact that I currently have That’s My Goal by Shayne Ward on repeat isn’t enough of a reason for you, then please keep reading. I found myself sitting on my shoe storage box yesterday, staring at the wall. The same wall that I […]
We all know that life can be chaotic, and it’s not always realistic to be able to head away on a city break or for a spa weekend to ease the stress. Sometimes peace and calm has to come from the more ordinary moments that life gives us, which are often actually the best moments. […]
