dating

NEW blog, and for the first time in ages I don’t need a content note or any smutty hashtags. This one’s about #dating and it’s cute, simple, and entirely safe for work.

Here’s a great romantic #date idea, you should take it and do it yourself if you agree.

Some of you have been eagerly awaiting part 2 of my test date with Jack. HERE IT IS!

The conclusion: love yourself before you start #dating. You'll know you're ready to #date when you can accept rejection with a shrug and 'your loss!'.

(pls share if you like it!)

I deleted the first draft of this blog and rewrote the whole thing this afternoon. *That* is how keen I am to build bridges rather than chuck rocks.

Sorry if it's a bit clumsy, but I hope you get what I'm trying to say.

NEW blog: it’s not you, it’s me.

How do you know if you’re ready to be #dating? (Or not, as the case may be)

Today’s blog makes me look like a bellend, but hopefully illustrates a point.

By the way, this article I wrote for Pride Month on queer dating apps is also applicable to anyone using any dating apps.

I highly recommend a read if
you are currently using a dating app,
or have been in the past and have not deleted your data and account yet:
