Ok, well it’s the day after yet another failed date.
I presume it’s failed as he said he’d be in touch but up to now I’ve heard nothing.
Although I’ve stated this is day #1 in my search for a husband, I actually started last year except just now it seems like I need to step up my game. I need to do something different to find the right man. I need help!
I guess I’ve been in love twice in my life. My first love is the most special (as they always are) and one I will love forever. His name was GM. We were childhood sweethearts and I thought I would spend the rest of my life with him. However, you reach the age of 18 and think that you know it all and there must be something better out there. I left him and went travelling. When I returned he had moved away and was with someone else. I managed to convince myself that what I had done was the right thing and that he wasn’t the man for me.
It’s been 9 years and I’m STILL trying to convince myself!
In the meantime I did find love again with AG. We got engaged and bought a house together. The phrase “you don’t really know someone until you live with them” plays a big part in this relationship. After just four months I knew I had to get out.
That was nearly three years ago and I am now ready to look again.
I have always thought dating sites and speed dating events weren’t really my scene. However, I have been persuaded recently to join in the fun and sign up to both. Firstly I went speed dating and I have to be honest I had a blast! Alas, I didn’t fancy any of the men there but who couldn’t enjoy talking and drinking all night! I got one match and we emailed for a while but nothing came of it. That was last year and I haven’t been on another speed dating event since but I think I might have to go on a few more if my plan of finding a husband before I’m thirty is to work.
I have also succumbed to the dating site promise of finding love in six months! I haven’t quite been on for six months yet so there is still hope.
I know I am not alone in my search. I have three close friends who are in the same situation and between us and anyone who reads this blog I am sure we can come up with some inventive ideas and ways to find our husbands!
