For my birthday my best friend, Rosie bought me a subscription to a famous dating site that you have to pay actual real life money for. And blow me down, someone on this site wants to meet me in actual real life. YIKES. Help. So wasn't prepared for that. What happened to the rejection or sexual perversion? Usual occurrence fail! This guy is 35, bald, normal looking and makes science books for schools. He does seem nice though. And he once ran in front of a car to save a squirrel so you know, that pretty much means my hands are tied. I have to meet him.

However, over on the free dating site with the perverts and the arty types I am chatting to several people; a 20 yr old guy studying animation at Birmingham uni who says 'lol' after every sentence and claims he just wants to make new friends (this isn't my experience of 20 yr olds so I'll fill you in), a guy with a thick neck and tattoos who winked at me, a guy who has a pug in his profile pic but isn't appealing in any other way apart from his dog and the actual only one I'm interested in - a beautiful fragile looking Portuguese man in London who sent me a poem and draws and photographs. I have a nasty feeling, he is 'my type' - ie) he's a self-obsessed and screwed up artist, I will fall hopelessly in love with him and it will all end in PAIN. Can't wait.
