I’ve given up on sex and romance and gone to Colombia

Probably not the wisest thing to declare on a sex and dating blog (don’t worry, I still have upcoming sex discourse to keep you entertained), but I’ve quit my job and now I am looking out at the mountains from an ecolodge in Colombia. I’ve hit that classic 30-plus stage of life where you question your existence so far, and then decide to run away … Continue reading I’ve given up on sex and romance and gone to Colombia

Men explain politics to me

A friend of mine, who still uses dating apps, wanted a way to weed out the people she wouldn’t gel with. She had something along the lines of: You should *not* go out with me if you are… a Tory or “not political” As a fellow woman of colour, I get why my friend wrote that. Let’s face it, politics – as in the institutions … Continue reading Men explain politics to me

I slept with a guy who has a girlfriend

I’m not a home-wrecker though, they are actually in an open relationship – or at least, it’s something they’ve recently started trying. And this definitely isn’t a situation where the man tells me he’s in an open relationship, when he’s really just cheating because, although he was a Tinder match, we had mutual friends so I did a bit of investigating to verify this information. … Continue reading I slept with a guy who has a girlfriend

The politics of paying for a drink on a first date

It’s January and we’re all poor AF. Dating is just another expense – all those drink rounds really add up. To be honest, I have three guys on the booty call rotation atm so I might sack off dating until I got dolla next month. But all this got me thinking about the politics of paying on first dates. I know I don’t owe a … Continue reading The politics of paying for a drink on a first date
