Still pretty caught up in this whole thing with Louise, though I am begining to inject a note of caution into my daydreaming. I think this is because she's being so tentative, though I don't feel that this is any reflection on me, and rather part of her own personal experiences ( Read more... )

Had an amazing evening with Louise last night, she came over to watch a movie and we ended up making out for a couple of hours. It's still early days but I am finding myself really falling for her, she's strong, intelligent, with a sarcastic sense of humour that makes me laugh. It also helps that she's good looking too ( Read more... )

Had another fantastic evening with Louise; I'm still not 100% that she fancies me, but I managed to kiss her properly this time, and we talked a little more about the future. For now we're going to take things slowly and see how they go, as both of us have been badly hurt by our ex-partners ( Read more... )

Many of my friends are currently posting in support for a campaign for gay marriage, and this post is because I don't feel I can join them in doing so. It is not because I feel people should be looked down upon because of their sexual orientation but rather I feel more strongly in my support for freedom of religious belief ( Read more... )

Well, Friday was pretty good as first dates went, we talked a lot, dinner took over 2 hours and kiss on the cheek at the end of the evening. Couldn't sleep that night as I kept wanting to text her, managed to hold out till 9am and got a text back really quickly (though felt like ages!) Saying she had fun too ( Read more... )

So, had a date on Monday, and whilst it was a good time and we shared a kiss, I realised that I just wanted to fix her and that it was no basis for a relationship. A year ago, I'd probably have just gone along with it anyway, happy that someone liked me at all, but I've realised that I actually need to think about what works for me ( Read more... )

Went out last night, for the first time in ages, met up with someone from work who proceeded to introduce me to some of her friends. From what I remember of the evening, things were pretty good, spent a few hours chatting and having a laugh with people I'd never met before ( Read more... )

Ok, so a couple of weeks back I posted that I felt depressed again... Turns out it appears to have been a low spot triggered by lack of exercise as I was resting my ankle. I'm back to feeling happy and confident, as I posted on Facebook I really do marvel at how different I am as a person, and how much the weight loss has improved my life ( Read more... )

I had a bit of a shock today, I realised that I'm actually a positive person now. I'm often encouraging my work collegues, working to help the office morale, whether it's turning up with Krispy Kreme doughnuts, or listening to them vent, I'm helping ( Read more... )
