I’m Just Sayin’ : Your ‘Horror-Scope” Always Catches Up With You

So apparently we’re in some kind of tumultuous astrological climate because Saturn (or perhaps Mercury?), which turned retrograde in the middle of this past January, is now slowly but surely retracing his steps back to return to Virgo. What this linguistic blah blah means is that the current star forecast for all the zodiac signs [...]

The Relationship Phobe: Stalking Standards Have Seriously Dropped

We’ve all seen it happen. A fashion label goes from being the exclusive choice of the super wealthy and celebrity crowd to being the thing that no-one wants to be seen in because absolutely everyone is wearing it. Well it’s not fashion labels it’s been happening with. This diluting of something that only previously was [...]

I’m Just Sayin’: How Out Can You Really Be With Your Family

My 89-year-old grand father just came up with a brilliant idea – or so he thinks! Are you ready for this? Out of nowhere, he suddenly decided to take on the grand – and very much impossible – mission to find me a husband. Phew! And to think I thought I was going to have [...]

The Relationship Phobe: Why I Shouldn’t Be Allowed To Use Email Unsupervised

So bad luck everyone but I’m using this week’s column as something of a confessional. I did something that I really shouldn’t have. Now don’t worry I haven’t killed anyone or stolen anything, but it ranks up there on the things that you really shouldn’t do. Let me set the scene, it’s been a tough [...]

I’m Just Sayin’: I’m Not Unapproachable, They’re Just Undesirable

The last thing I expected when I agreed to meet one of my “exs” for lunch – and by “ex”, I use the term loosely – was to actually be the main piece de resistance, and not even served on a silver platter! You think it would have behooved her to give me a little [...]

The Relationship Phobe: I Need To Go On A Dating Signals Course

There are two kinds of people on the dating scene. The ones who make the moves and the ones who have the moves made on them. Now most people think that the former take the initiative because they’re full of confidence and have a hard enough skin not to crumble into tiny little pieces if [...]

I’m Just Sayin’: I Should ALWAYS Trust My Gut Feelings

I knew there was an extremely good reason why I should have stayed home the other night or, for that matter, every night. Really, must I always be reminded of everyday life nonsense? I mean it’s not like I don’t do a good job on my own to confuse myself. I certainly don’t need the [...]

The Relationship Phobe: 5 Soul Destroying Rejections That Broke My Fragile Soul

So I’m going to let you into a bit of a secret. I tell quite a lot of people that I tend to do quite well in the looking for love stakes, that rejection isn’t something I come across often, and bless them some of them actually believe me. The reality though is you might [...]

I’m Just Sayin: I’m Late… For My Own Life

Here’s something new I just discovered about me: I am late! Now please, for the love of God spare me the flinching, cringing, eyebrow raising, eye-rolling, sighing, and don’t even dare thinking of throwing me a baby shower. Unless, unbeknownst to me, I have been anointed by the Holy one and sorely miscast as the [...]

The Relationship Phobe: What Do You Mean Relationships Aren’t A Sports Event?

Now correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought friends were all about supporting you no matter what. Well, if a recent conversation with one of mine is anything to go by I need to go friend shopping because one thing she certainly wasn’t was supportive. Talking about her current favourite topic of conversation that [...]
