I haven't posted anything in a while because I've been very busy with a new type of study, the process of which, I am pleased to announce, was not particularly challenging but the result of which is somewhat interesting!
I've been upholding the criteria of my new London List (must be hot and must be rich). After finding an interesting case study it has taken me over 5 weeks to come to the following conclusions:
I've been upholding the criteria of my new London List (must be hot and must be rich). After finding an interesting case study it has taken me over 5 weeks to come to the following conclusions:
1) Beware of the bicipitiello (and of anyone who admits going to the gym every day but having been to one museum in London)
2) Beware of the banker. Yes I did enjoy having all but one of my (not few) drinks, plus entrance to the pub paid for (even tough I suspect family money plays a bigger part than banking in this one). What I did not enjoy was our first date being cancelled because of work and not rescheduled for 10 days. 3) If you think hearing: "I'm not willing to commit to anything serious at the moment" and "How are gender relations and family roles in your country and in your family? And what do you expect?" in the same half hour is weird - it is weird. Both topics are best avoided.
4) Tell me stories that make me laugh on our first date, don't freak me out talking about past relationships and future expectations.
5) Fishing to make me say I really like you on day 1 will at best get me to say something really sweet like: "I have lots of friends in London, I wouldn't spend my Friday night with you if I didn't want to".
6) If you haven't travelled in Europe (especially if you're not from Europe) during your many years in the UK "because you have no one to travel with", please don't tell me. Make up that you're scared of planes, I'll find it less lame (probably because I am too - but obviously not enough!)
7) Don't tell me you want to see me again if you don't, and if you do please don't suggest a dinner date: I eat like a 2-year-old and find the idea about as appealing as sitting on needles all night.
CONCLUSION: The London List apparently doesn't work. I might want to consider making a list of things I don't want.
the title is so funny :))) and the conclusion so right my dear strawberry in the rain :)
