Krissy

Deal or no deal

Everyone has dealbreakers when it comes to dating and relationships. I’m not one of those fussy girls who has a checklist a mile long. My main ones are height (sorry shortys!), age (older than me) and no children (but must want them one day). Sure there is other things like honesty, employed, good sense of humour etc but I think most people want a generally decent and moral person I don’t think these sorts of attributes are dealbreakers as such.

So where am I going with this? I just wanted to get it out there.. Lose some of your dealbreakers ladies! That’s what I’ve done and have found a wonderful man who loves me for who I am and I do him, even though ‘on paper’ he is not who I would have ever considered dating.

Ok so he is tall, so at least can meet one of my requirements (I know it sounds superficial but I love a taller guy who can wrap his arms around me and make me feel little!).

However he is younger than me. I only really considered older guys before as I thought they may be more serious about settling down, but reality is I know people who settled down younger than his age so it’s not like he can’t either.

And the big one.. He has a daughter. She’s 3 and she is absolutely adorable. Now I admit I had my reservations at first about considering going out with someone a child. But in the end, I liked this guy so much that I was willing to accept his life and everything in it, regardless. I’ve had my moments though, full of doubt whether or not I can handle this, am I doing the right thing.. But I think I am. At least for now!

Last night she hugged me and said ‘I love you Krissy’. Melted my heart. I don’t know if I can say I do love her yet - but I definitely feel strongly towards her and I do hope that over time my feelings will evolve into love for her.

While I know it’s only early days, and the whole thing is new to all of us (me, him, his daughter) I truly hope we can grow together and be a family one day…

It’s already June!!

BF has asked me to fill in on his netball team tonight as they are short players. I haven’t played it in 15 yrs. What could go wrong?! Lol.

Hello caffeine!

About to meet my bf’s daughter. Nervous!!

Love overhearing ppl who know nothing about technology, talk about technology and what things they have no clue about.

Didnt have my parking permit displayed and got a bloody fine. $&@!

So last night I told him that I love him.. He replied I love you too however I’m not sure he just said that because I said it or if he really meant it.

It wasn’t mentioned for the rest of the night or this morning, but now I’m too scared to broach the subject again, don’t want to seem like some needy person who needs to be told they are loved.

Sigh.

So this weekend it’s going to be ‘meet the parents’. Hopefully without any crazy Ben Stilleresque adventures.
