Love is Luck

We go on dates and nights out in the hope of finding a partner, other half or companion. Someone we can spend our Sunday mornings with and come home to after a hard, long day at work. Every now and then we get in luck and someone half decent looking has asked us out on a date for a drink. We spend hours choosing what to wear from our never ending wardrobe, applying make up to our faces and styling our hair to perfection with the hope he may notice you've made an effort. Then he turns up not what you expected. His not even half  good looking you thought he was, he doesn't offer you a drink and his personality sinks and you never see him again.

You then start to think how many more of these dates do i need to go on in till i find Mr right? Sometimes you can meet someone and you automatically click and get on like a house on fire. For other people the more they spend time with that person the more they like them or dislike them. Sometimes i think finding someone you have true feelings for and generally really like who also likes you just the same is entirely down to luck. What are the chances of two people meeting in the same place, at the same time that just so happen to like each other? With social media and dating apps running our dating lives there are too many options for people to meet new people without really getting the chance to get to know each other that it's easy for people to shrug someone off as soon as someone better comes around.

Call me old fashioned but i am so happy with the way i met my boyfriend. I meet mine at a friends birthday party after she invited him so he didn't feel left out when she was talking about it to another friend in his presence. My friends egged me on to talk to him so i plucked up the courage and did exactly that and now six months on after that night we have been in a relationship for four months. Just before that party my friends were all as most people do have a nose on tinder telling me i such get it as it's such a laugh. Those things never really appealed to me and the thought of meeting someone through my phone honestly terrified me. Therefore i am so happy i kept off those apps and sites and find someone the old fashioned way face to face which in my opinion i was extremely lucky for.
