About Me

My photo
I'm single, broke, and in my early 30s... but thankfully decided a while ago to sort my life out once and for all; in particular to sort out my finances, and to move forward into a debt free life. I'm hoping writing a blog will help spur me on through my social life cutbacks, my successful and not-so-successful attempts at dating, my new addiction to the Sainsbury's Basics range, and the general insanity caused by the stress of money troubles.

Back to blogging

Right, after a couple of months off I am back on it...  Quite a bit has changed in that time - my dad now knows I'm in debt (as I 'fessed up) and was somewhat unexpectedly understanding and lovely about it; and I'm no longer with the boy.

Although I'm quite happy to be single, with getting older I do want to meet someone to settle down with, so have cracked on with some internet dating... but this creates a problem... going on dates costs money.  Even if they offer to pay for everything (which most modern men don't, in my experience), I still have to find the money for petrol to drive somewhere fairly equi-distant to meet up with them.  How can an impoverished person develop a love life??!  Not only that, but I just can't afford to do any fun activities...  I feel I am doomed to have to wait another two years until I'm out of debt to properly take the dating scene by storm!  We'll see, I guess, we'll see...
