Llare, well, he was right about one thing, you have had a lucky escape! I feel like I really can't be arsed with dating sometimes.
It was so much simpler when you went out, got drunk, snogged the guy you'd secretly fancied for weeks and that was it, you were boyfriend and girlfriend. To be honest, if there was anyone in my circle of friends I fancied, I'd probably be happier doing it like that now! As it is, I've been single over a year, and I know a grand total of 1 single man (apart from the ones I've had dates with from pof). I don't fancy him.
Snape, that's amazing. I've never seen anything like it. But ouch.
Scatty, chin up. You know your friend's just self absorbed because he's just been dumped. I bet those women weren't any more gorgeous than you, but if your mood wasn't 100% positive, you're always going to compare yourself less favourably.
I too have a date for tomorrow! Just coffee, so are jeans and a blouse ok, or do I need to wear a dress?
