Right, this is not likely to be a blog that gets a lot of comments, I just feel like venting a bit as someone made me upset. I've been told that writing stuff down is cathartic so my blog today is very much an exercise to see if that actually works.
Ok, deep breath and here we go....
Last night I was very happily messging away with a friend and having a good laugh with him. Then I got some texts from a guy whom I have been exchanging emails and texts with for a few days but whom I have yet to meet. When Mr Texty realised I was , he kept asking me to get on Skype with him as he wanted to see me. He has never previously asked if I was even messgener.
I kept refusing as, frankly, my hair was pulled back in a bun, I was wearing glasses and old training clothes. Basically I looked like the worst version of myself and I'd rather the first time any guy sees me is when I've combed my hair and slapped on a bit of the war paint. I thought that was fair enough but I might be in the minority here.
Anyway after several refusals from me, Mr Texty then said he was going to ask me to finally meet him for the first time this Wednesday. But only if I agreed to Skype with him. I do not react well to such tactics. I continued to refuse but I was - am - very upset, disappointed, confused as well as angry.
Mr Texty has been informed today of how upset I am by his behaviour of last night and has now apologised twice. So I'm just going to end my little rant with the lyrics of what has just become my favourite song:
You don't own me
I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys
And don't tell me what to do
Don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display 'cause
You don't own me
Don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me
Don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay
I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you
I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please
And don't tell me what to do
Oh, don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display
I don't tell you what to say
Oh, don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you

Should the twain ever meet Turquiose lady, I'd bring me guitar and strum it whilst you sang. Good choice of song - treat others how you want to treated I think is the message.

As I found my little rant to actually make me feel better, I am now throwing this blog open to one and all as well as all and one to vent their spleen also in the hopes that you will also feel better. If you can throw in an appropriate song, I'll be right here singing it with you.

Deborose - totally agree with you about regular dating sites. I think I prefer the majority of men that I talk to on here to any that I have met back in the day when I used to date. All for the simple reason that most men on adult sites are so much more honest and upfront about what they want (not to mention how they want it!) than those on dating sites. |

Sounds like Mr Texty was in reverse when he tried to apply some psychology, back fired on him, he obviously underestimated your need to be comfortable and must be a russian - nowhere |

I'm happy to chat with anyone, but for UKEurope purposes it would mean doing so at some ungodly hour for me, and I need my beauty sleep :-) In fact that's another reason why I don't spend interminable hours in site chat until the wee smalls. Anyone over there fancy chatting me between about 1-6 AM UK time? No, I thought not :-) |

Wee smalls? Skebbie dearest, do feel free to rant and expand about your smalls if you so wish but please omit all details of the wee. This blog is open to all topics but wee! With that, I'm off to bed now and look forward to waking up to read all about your smalls! x |

An invitation to rant ? One of the things that really annoys me is the tendency of car manufacturers to give their models silly, meaningless names. I would not care to be seen in a car called a Duster,Yeti or any others with names which for all I know, may translate from some obscure language into " Look at that twat behind the wheel "

Exactly my sentiments, SueChris. It's despicable that publicans and restauranteurs should be allowed to shirk their obligations to be on call 247 for the likes of us. Reminds me of those famous lines uttered by Richard E. Grant in that great Cumbrian saga "Withnail and I": "I demand the finest wines known to humanity, and I want them NOW !!" |

cantbearsed - Steph780 has actually said what I would have in response to you! Yes, I was very upset but I'm not anymore as he's apologised. Now he knows me a bit better as a result! In any case, I have my own flaws for him to discover so no point in holding onto my hurt feelings.

While I get the rant, they guy was obviously trying to force your hand, and your clearly a free spirit, from a purely objective perspective, you serioulsy underestimate your natural beauty, and those dimples, to die for, slobs or not, did the guy not realise how fortunate he was just to have your number?? |

Dadaron, thanks for the comment but I'm going to wait to see how things go. If he tries to pressure me again over something, my shoes, boots and trainers are all made for walking. Well except for the ones that have 3"+ heels and then I'll just be tottering.
