Well the date thing I got so excited about in the last post went kaput last weekend as the girl he's been in love with for years - who has always rejected him - found out he'd got a date and then suddenly decided she wanted to go out with him now. I'm not mad at him as he's always been crazy about this girl, so of course he'd choose her over me, though I'm annoyed at how she's had years to get with him, but only decided she was interested once he'd started looking at someone else...
Ah well - swings and roundabouts!
The whole thing gave me a lot of food for thought at any rate - it's made me realise that I really ought not to worry too much about men for the time being, for although I'm over my ex, I still haven't recovered from what that relationship did to me - I'm still insecure and have a hard time trusting people, so I ought to resolve those issues before I even think about getting with someone new.
That being said, the thing with my friend did push me into the partying mode of single life (which I missed out on after my 2010 break up because I got with my next boyfriend (my most recent ex) too quickly afterwards. So on Monday I went out in Sheffield and ended up getting a couple of numbers quite randomly. Then I went to Hull to visit my best friend on Thursday- I didn't get any numbers that time (to be fair, I just wanted to dance with my friend, I wasn't bothered about talking to anyone else), though when I was sat in the train station waiting to be collected, I was sat opposite a really cute guy - I can't be bothered to describe him, but trust me on this: he was cute :p Anyway, I glanced up and he smiled at me. Properly smiled at me. I panicked. I frowned at him. Fail! >.< I'm so bad at this, it isn't even funny...
At any rate, I've decided that with the exception of drunken kisses, I am on a boy ban until June (when I finish the bulk of my degree) and so I am banned from getting worked up over boys, banned from dating, and banned from even thinking of pursuing someone. Though the exception will be if someone truly exceptional appears on my radar - however 1. I don't think that will happen (I have quite high standards, and the only guy who's met these is the guy who chose someone else in the end), and 2. If it does, they will almost certainly be light years out of my league.
But oh well, you never know what's round the corner
To close, here's a pic of me (brunette) and my best friend (busty blonde) on Thursday night, drunkenly playing with the webcam as we waited for our taxi to town:
Hope you're all having a good week! <3

that sucks sorry to hear that happened to you. I bet she said she would go out with him when she found out about the date because she always knew he would be there on the back burner if nothing better came along. Plus if he found someone he wouldn't be her back up plan anymore. I think he is stupid for not going out on a date with you, because you look great
