Being bad….

… is just so GOOD!

The more I look at how quickly life flies by – the more I am realising that I need to take the opportunities I have and run with them.

This week is a great example: I gave in to the urge to bed sweet young Cutie Pie*. He is 22, but like I said before – I really do like them young.

Stamina to die for and they are always really good at pleasing a woman – perhaps the sex-ed curriculum has changed since I was in school?

Last night was round 2, with another little young thing (variety being the spice of life & the fact that my hormones are in overdrive) I was a bit overly kinky and today there is a random photo of my boob floating around via his friends.

I seem to have major exhibitionist tendencies lately:

Shopping centre, parking lot and now sending boob photos out…

All in the name of the slutty single life!

Cocktails, Men & Fun

My year ended and began with:

• A marriage proposal
• An adultery proposal
• A sex proposal

3 different men. None of them Kevin.

How’s that for surreal?

I have never been a fan of New Years Eve parties, but 2010 was a fun ending for me.

I spent the morning with Soulla, we made some breakfast and had a lazy morning chatting.

 

I went home and being alone my thoughts naturally drifted again to Kevin. 

I was feeling quite maudlin until I arrived at Johan’s house to spend the evening with him and Liez. Johan made us pizza dough (from scratch) and we made up our custom pizzas which we cooked in the Weber.



Some delicious Alto Rouge accompanied our pizza feast. We played Scene It ( a movie quiz) on X Box and had a blast.

I got to bed at 2:30 and I had a twinge of sadness, but overall, I was happy that I got to see in the new year with some good friends.

My first day of 2011 ended with a lovely evening spent with my parents. We had some dinner and really good laughs and I find myself appreciating these special moments with my parents more and more.

 

It was only the 3 of us – once I get married it won’t just be the 3 of us – and as much as I long for the day I can finally have my husband share these special times with my folks & me – I am glad I have these memories.

Why am I still feeling sadness?

My confidence has taken a bit of a knock.

No girl wants to admit that a guy who was totally crazy about her, gradually decided that he didn’t want her anymore.

I keep wondering what I could have done differently, should I have said this or that… the usual.

Yes it is probably best we ended it (there really wasnt a chance of a future because of our age difference) – but it still doesnt make the sting of rejection any easier. It is still really difficult for me to come to terms with the fact that someone decided I wasn’t enough for them.

I am looking forward to moving on – I suppose it is the natural process of healing…. and I look forward to getting through a whole day without constantly thinking about him and missing him.

At my age – You dont spend 9 months of your life with someone not to be hurt when it doesnt work out.

Bring on 2011:

There are cocktails to be drank, men to be met and fun to be had!!

*In case you are wondering: I turned all 3 proposals down!
