But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. For me, anytime a guy wasn’t interested (especially if he ‘liked my personality’) I always thought, ‘This would be different if I were thinner.’ Is that a particularly healthy thought? No Did it happen anyway? Yes There were also the super nice guys who would call me fat as soon as I said I wasn’t interested. I recognized they were idiots, but they weren’t wrong. Dating in Toronto is hard enough as it is. Being overweight did not make it easier. I didn’t really know ...

But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. Tag Archives: body image. For me, anytime a guy wasn’t interested (especially if he ‘liked my personality’) I always thought, ‘This would be different if I were thinner.’ Is that a particularly healthy thought? No Did it happen anyway? Difference in the way men look at and interact with me, especially lately. Could this be because I’m more confident now? The one thing I absolutely did not expect was to meet a guy who might prefer the old me. I spent so many years tryin...

But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. Aged like a fine wine. If I find myself still doing this when I’m in my sixties (sweet roller skating Christ, I hope that doesn’t happen) I now know I have what it takes to snag myself a senior suitor. As a side effect of my experiment. I couldn’t make this shit up if I tried. I didn’t screen shot this next gentleman’s messages, but he kept talking about my “assets” quotations included. He’s 63 and lives in Saskatchewan:. And people wonder why I drink. May 20, 2015. These ...

But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. I went out on a date last night that might go down in history as the biggest waste of time in my Toronto dating history. I met this charmer on Tinder (where else) after widening my age settings to a ridiculously low number I have since changed. He was young, but quite polite and eager to get a drink. He chose a great bar and although we had to reschedule twice, he remained polite and eager. Earlier in the day he confirmed our plans to meet at 8pm. I returned to the table, ...

But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. Tag Archives: bad date. Too much too soon. 8216;But what about the blog? If I had a dollar for every time someone has asked me that over the past couple of weeks, as it becomes obvious that Bogart isn’t going anywhere – despite my bananapants. Behaviour and drunken shenanigans. 8211; I would have a lot of dollars. Well, I would probably have a lot of wine because I would exchange those dollars for sweet, sweet alcohol. You’ll learn more face to face IMHO. This is DEFINITEL...

But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. I did two pretty big things this weekend: I turned 33 and I introduced Bogart to quite a few of my friends while drinking. To celebrate turning 33. I’ve had a rocky relationship with both birthdays and introducing boys in the past; both cause a weird mixture of nerves and excitement. I know if I were seeing someone who wrote a blog, my friends would be gathered round with popcorn and wine, dissecting every fresh post. That being said, both the actual meeting and the po...

But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. Getting there is half the fun. Anyone who has been in this city for a length of time has a transit story. I have multiple, and here they are, in no particular order. Going to town in his pants. Certainly he was just scratching an itch, really vigorously? She screeched at him. What did you say, you long-haired bitch? She added, before he could respond. Why don’t you sit next to your girlfriend? The Wheels on the Bus. I took the Greyhound to London on Labour Day weekend....

But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. I know, I know, I’m shit and I haven’t been writing, and I’m sorry. I actually started a post last week about how cutely gross/funny my relationship is, but I’m not feeling it at the moment, so you’re spared the schmoop. For now. Instead, I give you Anxiety Girl . You’ve met her before (well some of you, Bogart has been spared the worst of it thus far), and I know her well. I’ve talked about my journey with Seasonal Affective Disorder. Having met his family, conversation t...

But first, wine. Hi, I’m Steph. If you can’t take the heat. I’m going a little off topic here, so bear with me. Or don’t and go read Buzzfeed. You’ve already counted as traffic, so thanks for visiting! I’m somewhere around my three-year anniversary as a vegetarian, a thought that struck me as bonkers all of a sudden. I messaged a friend, who thought I had lost my damn mind. Me: Dude, I’m a. Vegetarian. As in haven’t-eaten-meat-in-almost-three-years vegetarian! Friend: Um, is this news to you? Because a) ...
