And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust

I’m referring to the “I’m Originally from New York and I’m so Cool” dude that I just met.

Without going into much detail and boring you to tears with the full story let’s just say that he sent a text message that made me cringe (this isn’t the only reason he’s gone bye bye). The fact that a man would even say something like that to a woman made me wanna vomit but I suppose some women like being talked to like that…I don’t know. It certainly ruffled my feathers that’s for sure!

But…yeah for me for simply moving on and not keeping him around just for the sake of the possibility of having a man in my life. That right there deserves a gold star

Blech! This week made me frown a little. Ok a lot! I only lost 1.6 pounds and it ticked me off. My grand total is now 17 pounds lost and while I’m happy that I’ve lost that in just three weeks this is where I start getting bummed. As soon as the weight loss slows I get frustrated. I know it takes time but it aggravates the heck out of me that I’m working so hard at something and not seeing big results.

but that doesn’t mean we didn’t have a date

We had to meet this weekend because tonight didn’t end up working out for him. I was trying to not have any expectations considering it was our first meeting. But sometimes it’s hard to not have some expectations. And let’s just say that he far surpassed any expectations I had.

He’s way cuter in person! And his accent is to die for (he’s orginially from New York). Then again I’m a bit of  a sucker for a man with an accent, there’s just something about it that I find sexy.  He’s taller than me…not that that’s a huge deal. And he was just downright genuine, or at least it seems like he was.

I know that only time will tell…so we’ll see.

I have another secret to share. I know ya’ll are so excited for that. There’s just something so….alluring about the word secret isn’t there?

Anyways enough beating around the bush time to move onto the big secret.

(more…)

Alaina from Ms. Single Mama recently started a forum for Single Moms (it rocks by the way…I’m totally digging it!) and one of the topics on the forum is about women asking men out.

I can’t do it. I’m not that brave!

I can do the flirting thing. Like for example Sunday I was grocery shopping with my best friend and her hubby and there was a guy in the aisle (whom was pretty darn cute by the way!) and there was definitely some flirting going on between the two of us - smiles and eye contact. As he left the aisle I turned to check him out one more time only to find him turned watching me. But anyways…even though I would have liked to talk to him I couldn’t just strike up a conversation. I’m too chicken!

Or like last Thursday flirting with the garbage man! Yes the garbage man!  LOL

So you can only imagine if I’m that chicken to strike up a conversation how I definitely don’t have the balls to ask a guy out.

I’ve heard that some guys think a woman asking them out is the greatest. It shows their confidence. I’ve heard others say that they still like to be the one doing the pursuing.

Ladies, what are your thoughts?
