Milk and a biscuit: Octopus boy
http://milkandabiscuit.blogspot.com/2015/05/octopus-boy.html
Milk and a biscuit. Searching for that elusive spark. or misadventures in the world of dating. Tuesday, 26 May 2015. I should have been warned when he said in his profile that he was tactile. He said tactile. That's not precisely what he meant. We had a lot in common. He was a nice bloke, with quite a few similar views to me - but enough different views to keep things interesting. I liked him but was wary - because he went from being Mr Interesting to Octopus Boy. Pop goes the weasel.

Milk and a biscuit: November 2014
http://milkandabiscuit.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Milk and a biscuit. Searching for that elusive spark. or misadventures in the world of dating. Wednesday, 5 November 2014. Your profile says that you are London. We start chatting. Get on well. So far so good. Then suddenly you ask where I am based. Er, London. You? Apparently South London is too far away for us to meet up, you think. Which leads me to two questions. A) Why does your profile say you live in London? B) Why are you so inflexible? If you were the right person, I would be prepared to move.

Milk and a biscuit: June 2015
http://milkandabiscuit.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Milk and a biscuit. Searching for that elusive spark. or misadventures in the world of dating. Tuesday, 23 June 2015. We met up at Green Park. On the short walk to Shepherd's Market he talked. A lot. Apparently he was into Buddhism but as he worked in marketing, all the Buddhist terms he used came out in marketing speech. No quite blue sky thinking, but not far off it. He didn't even notice that he was doing it. I was down to the ice cubes in my drink. Total length of date = 35 minutes*. He seemed a nice...

Milk and a biscuit: Truth and lies
http://milkandabiscuit.blogspot.com/2015/07/truth-and-lies.html
Milk and a biscuit. Searching for that elusive spark. or misadventures in the world of dating. Monday, 13 July 2015. During this last couple of weeks where I haven't been out on any dates, but I have been wondering what is going on in the world of dates. Especially when I come across articles like this one from the Guardian about making Internet dates take polygraph tests. So if you can find a date, and you can persuade him to actually take a test, where will that leave your potential relationship?

Milk and a biscuit: Married at First Sight
http://milkandabiscuit.blogspot.com/2015/07/married-at-first-sight.html
Milk and a biscuit. Searching for that elusive spark. or misadventures in the world of dating. Friday, 10 July 2015. Married at First Sight. I hadn't heard of Married at First Sight. Before a friend told me about it, but I spent the evening watching it, my first thought being that maybe the people taking part had got it right. Could science find a compatible partner when meeting someone through friends, in the pub or online was unsuccessful? There were three couples that they finally paired up.

Milk and a biscuit: Random ramblings
http://milkandabiscuit.blogspot.com/2015/06/random-ramblings.html
Milk and a biscuit. Searching for that elusive spark. or misadventures in the world of dating. Thursday, 18 June 2015. The weather was perfect. Sunny and lovely. Ideal for a walk in Hyde Park. Which is what we were doing - wandering around and wondering aloud. He seemed a nice guy. We'd had email conversations on the dating site and then chatted on WhatsApp. We had a similar line in humour and sarcasm, finding amusement in the same sorts of randomness. I think I may have concluded we weren't destined to ...

Milk and a biscuit: Indian Summer
http://milkandabiscuit.blogspot.com/2015/07/indian-summer.html
Milk and a biscuit. Searching for that elusive spark. or misadventures in the world of dating. Monday, 13 July 2015. I quite like Dorothy Parker. S poetry. Her wit, cynicism and disillusionment somehow strikes a chord with me. While I haven't had the sort of life experiences that she had, there is something in her writing that appeals. My present mood is Indian Summer. It sums up the world of dating and of trying to mould yourself into someone else's idea of what you should be. Why should you?

Thursday, 14 August 2014. This evening I have been mainly appealing to my own sense of the ridiculous. I have been sighted several times in various locations with a large group of people looking at things which are no longer there. While being heavily rained on by the British Summertime. Sadly most of the li...

Tuesday, 17 April 2012. Am I too cynical? Probably, although the people who know me well are aware that it is just a defence mechanism. Maybe I lack self confidence. Maybe you haven't tried to get to know me. Maybe my exterior repulsed you. Maybe you weren't interested in the first place. Links to this post.
