There was a recent survey shared a while ago where single people were asked how long they would be willing to travel to find love. I expected to see people hovering around the hour mark, maybe slightly longer. After all, if you're interested in someone then you'll make the extra effort to actually see them,... Continue Reading →
Advice for people new to dating
There are many reasons why someone might be new to the dating scene. They might only be just dipping the toe in the water for the first time, or maybe they've come out of a long term relationship, or perhaps they've been frozen in carbonite for a hundred years and are only just being thawed...

The day my world ended
27 January will always be a weird day for me. I was reminded of it this year by a Facebook Memories thing, which showed a picture I shared on 27 January 2016 of the time I was doing some laundry, ran out of blue Bold so mixed in some pink Bold like a real rebel.... Continue Reading →
What really goes through a guy’s head when she says yes
I'm sure there are a couple of readers out there who don't yet follow the dating travails of Lucy Goes Dating (though I don't know why you wouldn't be?!), so for that small group she is currently running a series which introduces Charlie. Charlie is super sexy, handsome, confident and intelligent, and knows exactly what... Continue Reading →
Confidence. Why the hell is it so sexy (in and out of the bedroom) and how can people fake it until they make it?

A confident person is one of the most attractive people in a room, whoever else is in there. Looks (to a surprising degree) go out the window when... Continue Reading →

As well as being useful around the house once they're caught and domesticated, they look lovely and are great to have around when you need a certain type of itch scratched. (Sex. That means having sex.) Us... Continue Reading →
My most embarrassing date (so far)
Over the last month or so I've become a little more talkative on Twitter (come say hi @adatingdad if you're on there too!) and have followed some really brilliant and funny people. Some focus on parenting, some dating and a few are like me and talk about both. It's some of those who are exploring... Continue Reading →
1AD
Years are funny things. They are a man-made construct to mark the amount of time that it takes for the earth to travel around the sun once. In the grand scheme of things they mean nothing; I am literally no different now to how I was yesterday. Adding another day onto my age hasn't made... Continue Reading →
For One Night Only
I read a lot of dating blogs these days. Recently I was catching up on posts from the brilliant Alice in Wanderlust blog and came across one which was all about being picky. One section, in particular, made me stop and think a little: I was at a party, and one of my friends started... Continue Reading →
