I don’t mean jaw-droppingly gorgeous – I’m not shallow! By nice face, I wanted someone that looked approachable and had a twinkle in their eyes or a quirky expression. It was really important to me when dating that guys could hold a conversation. I’m a talker! Which is kind of essential being a dating profile photographer. It’s always good to know that people will work hard for what they want. People tend to be more interesting and creative, in my opinion. Ambitious and drivenīeing a business owner, I’ve always found drive and ambition really great traits to have. Here are the top things that were on my hit list: 1.
I wasn’t sure what I wanted in terms of longevity but could confidently say that if I met someone I clicked with I’d be up for more dates to see where things led. Once you’ve decided to try online dating, you need to be clear (ish) about what you’re looking for in a partner, or, for want of a better word, fling. I could talk until I’m blue in the face about my dating experience but I don’t want to cram it all into one blog – there will more to come from me on this! I’ll leave that for you to decide for yourself. What happens at the end of your first Plenty of Fish date ?ĭo you arrange a 2 nd date? Share a kiss? Go home with your date? With most men, however, they were genuinely wanting to meet their forever partner. And were quite blunt about it. Intentional one-night-stands weren’t really my style. Some men made it clear from the outset that they were in it for sex and sex only. I can understand why – can you ever be entirely sure who you’re meeting? Safety first people! I don’t think she was entirely comfortable with her daughter meeting up with random strangers. My mum liked to know I was safe, so I’d always tell her the who, where and when of my dating adventures. Just to put her at ease.
Not only for a drop of Dutch courage, but because there were other people around, creating a ready-made atmosphere. I always opted for a busy bar (or similar) for a first date. But after meeting a few men, dating became familiar and easier. And I quickly started to learn what I did/didn’t want in a partner. I always felt a little nervous before a first date particularly at the start of my journey as a singleton. I could normally tell within 30 seconds or so whether the date was going to go well or not. Knowing instantly with some that there’d be no 2 nd date. I’m not ashamed to say it – I had handfuls of first dates with men I’d met on Plenty of Fish.
