If you were latino or muslim, you’d have it in the bag.

28 Aug

Since I’ve moved back to Montreal, I’ve been a bit slower on the dating front. I have a profile up online, but I haven’t put much time into it…and when I have the results have been less than stellar. Please, don’t start with the “love finds you when you least expect it” bs. I’m far too jaded.

But alas, perhaps my luck is changing as I received this message today Continue reading 

My dating year in review (FML)

26 Jul

Seeing as I have been quite dreadful at updating this blog in the last year, and any good faith attempt has failed miserably, I have decided to provide a very simple snapshot. I feel you can really get the sense of hilarity this way. Continue reading 

Top (concerning) search terms

18 Mar

Randomly I was looking at my blog’s dashboard, and saw the report on top search terms. I’d really like to understand what drives people to look up these sorts of terms – what are they hoping to find?! Even more importantly, why did these queries lead them to me?! Continue reading 

The truth…

14 Mar

…is sometimes hard to hear, especially when it comes to dating. We never want to believe that someone doesn’t want us. In fact, for some of us (even smart girls who read the newspaper), the very suggestion that they might not want us, makes us want them more. Continue reading 

Dating ain’t easy

11 Mar

It’s true – dating is hard. You have to put yourself out there and be outgoing even when you don’t feel like it. You worry about your clothes, your hair, your body. You worry about the conversation and the silences. You worry about the start of the date, the in-between, and the end of the night. You worry about so much, and quite frankly it’s exhausting. And it’s also exhilarating. Continue reading 

If the world is my oyster, then where are all the fish in the sea?

4 Mar

Oh, dear Reader, I have abandoned you too long. I have commitment issues, you see. But do not fret. Despite being guilty of quick judgements and hasty exits – you’ll find I often return to you, having forgotten what made me leave in the first place. It’s part of my fickle charm…and thus, why you may not be surprised to know that I am, alas, still single. Continue reading 

I don’t understand anything you’re saying

26 Jul


Ok- so I know I’ve been taking the lazy route recently and mostly posting emails I get, rather than going to the vault for dating stories – but some of these emails are just too funny not to post.

I have to be honest, I have developed a deep concern about the education system, as communication and basic English language skills appear to be lacking in every email I receive! Now, I could appreciate this if I was getting emails from non-English speaking countries, however most of them come from North America. Take for example this guy, who is Irish American, well Irish…well it’s a complicated story… Continue reading
