So a few weeks ago, a girl that i really like gave this guy my number, and i guess told him that i was all kinds of awesome, the bees knees….such things. He called, we arranged to meet the next day for lunch, and i was then left to ponder deep, life-changing matters like what to do with my hair and what to wear. Which took a few hours, because, have you seen my hair??? No? Vulture’s nest, anyone?
Anywho, the next day, i turned up for my blind date looking moderately human, and my jaw literally hits the flowa..because this man was FINE. Like, are-you-sure-youre-my-date-cos-how-are-you-still-single-looking-like-that kind of fine. I was actually thrown off my game for a bit because i have neeeever known what to say when I’m confronted with a truly good-looking man..let’s face it, if you know me, you know that i can’t multitask. Like in this case, i can’t talk and ovulate at the same time. Back to the date. So i was tongue-tied for a few minutes, but i quickly got my mojo back, and we both proceeded to talk non-stop for hours. I remember him having this really hearty laugh…he’d throw his head back and just laugh from his belly…which i found very attractive. As if being a gorgeous hunk of man meat wasn’t enough. Sigh.
Anyway, i happened to mention to him that i blog on occasion, he asked for the address and i wrote it down for him on a serviette. So he drops me home, tells me how much fun he had and how we have to do it again. Next day, he hollas, says the address i wrote down for my blog doesn’t exist or something, and I’m there grinning like a moron because he kept the serviette (which is sooo romantic comedy, i know). So i text him the address, and that’s the last i heard from him. I’m not even kidding. Like he vanished into thin air. So i can only assume that he was struck dumb by the horrors he found on this blog. Ahahahaha.
Seriously tho…does this blog actively run men off??
Hey Ciru. I’m not sure that blogging could turn men off, especially your blogs that are absolutely hilarious and entertaining. If anything, I think they should love the fact that you blog because it is an easy way of them getting an idea of what kind of person you are, what your position on various issues is and all that shit. In short they can easily get a bit of an insight into your character. If anything, this man should have come back running to you because what he should have deduced from your blog is that you are an interesting gyal who finds humour in most of life’s events. That’s an attractive trait. On the flip side, he may have come across something he didn’t like so the disadvantage of a blog is that it makes people form an opinion of you before they have really had a chance to know the real Ciru. That’s my two cents.
A bit of advice though, why sit around like a sad little puppy waiting for him to get in touch. Why not try to reach him. Women should learn to take the bull by the horn, go after what they really want. Trust me, if U take that approach, you’ll be delighted more often than not. After all, do you think it’s usually the mans idea to settle down? Noooo! It’s usually the schemes of a mama that get them there. Before he knows it, he’s a boyfie & shortly afterwards, he’s a hubby & daddy.

Ps… How’s the leg?
I carried out an informal survey, and apparently, judging from the way i express myself, I’m not ‘wife material’. LOL. Apparently i should be writing about pies, crotcheting and the joys of childbirth.
Leg is muuch better now luv.
