Long-term readers of this blog will remember how, for over a year, Lucy dated a non-monogamous man named Charlie. It was a whirlwind of great sex, heightened emotions, fun times, frustrations, anxiety and pain, until it eventually ended when Lucy decided that as much as she liked Charlie, she couldn’t…View Post
If you follow @lucygoesdating on Twitter, you may be aware that last week she went on a date with a man from Bumble. Which, given how utterly useless most men from Bumble are, is an event in itself. But even more extraordinary than that is the fact that this particular…View Post
*** Freshly Updated for 2020!*** When I decided to start this dating blog, back in 2017, the first thing I did was google other dating bloggers to see what they were doing. What did I like? What dating stories did I want to read? What sort of online dating experiences…View Post
After months with no dates, Lucy decides that if she’s ever going to get laid again, she needs to take action. Despite the bullshit crap that well-meaning morons spout – it’ll happen when you least expect it; stop looking for love and let it find you – the awful truth…View Post
Last week’s post catalogued some of the reasons why the current lockdown situation is a fucking piece of shit if you’re single, and particularly if you live alone. If you missed it and you’re flying solo, you probably already knew that, but if you want to catch up, it’s over…View Post
Lockdown. It’s a bitch, isn’t it? Can’t go to the pub, can’t see your friends, trapped inside your four walls unable to decide between watching Buffy again from the beginning or having your fourth wank of the day, having to queue outside Sainsbury’s for over an hour getting breathed on…View Post
Dating apps are shit. Everyone knows it. Hours of swiping on lazy, grotesque or illiterate profiles that make you despair for the future of the human race. Timewasting fucks who match and then never message. Endless tedious chat with boring weirdos who don’t know how to hold a conversation or…View Post
Hi everyone, it’s me, Lucy. If you follow me on Twitter, you may already know this – so sorry if I’m repeating myself! This post is mainly for the rest of you lovely lot who don’t, or who didn’t see my announcement when I tweeted recently. I just wanted to…View Post
This is the second part of my round up of the best questions from my brief adventure into the murky world of the Curious Cat anonymous questions site. If you missed the first part, hope on over to last week’s post for a quick catch-up. Otherwise, here are a few…View Post
Hello, Lucy here! Those of you who follow me over on Twitter may remember that a month or two ago there was a brief craze for a thing called ‘Curious Cat’. Curious Cat is a simple website that allows you create an account and then invite other people to ask…View Post
Today’s guest post is a very personal (and hot!) confession from The Silver Salmon @Dr_Allen80 Craiglist may have been a cesspit full of opportunist money grabbers and sex workers, but it did have at its core a group of kinky weirdos that just wanted to enjoy the freedom of indulging…View Post
It’s a Thursday, and Lucy has an Actual Blind Date. With a faceless, nameless, completely anonymous stranger. Someone who might be the man of her dreams. Or a potato. The date has been arranged by Jordi, whom she met at the Smudged Lipstick Connect 4 Dating Event. As well as…View Post
This week’s guest post is a scorcher from a lady who wishes to be known only as Nicola. Romantic success through an app is an urban legend. I will never believe that your cousin’s best friend’s sister met the love of her life on her first Tinder date, got married…View Post
It’s a Saturday, and Lucy has a brunch date with Julien, whom she found on OKCupid. Julien, in case it wasn’t obvious from his name, is French. Lucy’s still on her mission to find a replacement for Charlie, and seems to be matching fairly regularly with foreigners. Not, perhaps, because…View Post
