Well I head a really nice date a few nights ago with my current favourite guy, lets call him Import-Export Guy. We had dinner, we talked and we kissed. We are planning to meet again but he is away next week on business. I can’t wait to see him again.
It may surprise some who know me that this blogging journey started with a wish. The day after I arrived in the UK and 5 days after Guy 0 ended things I went with some family to a botanical gardens. Near the end of the day we came across a wishing well and while my cousins made their wishes I stopped to think what I would wish for. The first idea was of course to get Guy 0 back but then I stopped to consider if that was really what I wanted. Oh yes I missed him. Before Guy 0 I was single for a long time and being with him had given me new outlook on life. I enjoyed being someone’s girlfriend and having someone to care about that. I still wanted that but probably not with him. So my next thought was to wish for another boyfriend. But that did not feel right either. I did not know what sort of boyfriend and I guess I was not that ready to let go of Guy 0. So instead I wished for something positive to come out of this break-up.
It was amazing the difference such an idea made for me. I immediately started feeling more positive and thinking about what that ‘something positive’ should be. It was not long before I decided to try online dating and had download “Badoo”. Those first few conversations were crazy and messed up. I guess reflecting where I was at the time. That in turn inspired me to start this blog and now I am also enjoying reading about other peoples experiences.
Now it seems I have found someone new. It might not last but right now I’m enjoying being him and having fun. So I like to think that my wish really has come true.
Heartbreak and Hope
