How to play 'Hard To Get'

Hello everyone!! How are we?
So, following on from my last post, my male 'ex-best-friend' has contacted me again!!
It simply reads... "Hey Em, hopefully you don't hate me........just wanted to say I hope you're OK"
Well, i felt like replying "Yup. Never better! Was fine 'til you messaged..."! Like, what right does he think he has to message me after dumping me by text?! Because obviously I'm just gonna be like "Yeah!!! Hey best friend!! OMG missed you loads!! Was literally just thinking about you!! Lets meet up!!"..... UMMMMMMMMM.....NAHHHHHHH! No thank you!! Why on earth would i give him another chance! Let alone a reply!
So!!!! As they say, 'treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen!' Which i actually think is very true! Don't let someone take something from you and use you without you taking and using first! Harsh, but very true! Guys are more likely to stick around because they love the chase. So, since now i'm practically an expert on this technique of dating.... Here's how to play "Hard to get"!!

1. Take FOREVER to reply: Don't reply straight away!! Act like you're hardly ever on your phone!

2. If you have WhatsApp, View the message but then don't reply for ages: You know those really annoying blue ticks? Use thoose to your advantage!!

3. Use other social media since he sent the message: So, if you have this person that you're teasing on another form of social media (i.e. Snapchat, Facebook, Twitter etc) update your 'Story'/'Status' etc since he sent his last message! This appears like you're way too busy having a life to reply to his message! He isn't high on your priorities!

4. Be mysterious: Don't tell him all your deepest and darkest secrets on the first date. Let him work hard to win your attention and trust first. Also, dress conservatively - no boobs, thigh or midriff on show!! He has to work hard to see your beautiful body!! Only the lucky ones hit the jackpot!!

5. Be unattainable: If he asks you on a date, remember that YOU'RE BUSY!!! (Well, the first couple of times anyway). Don't get all excited when he asks you out!! HE should be the one who's excited to take you out!! Not the other way round! You're the prize to be won, remember!

6. Remind him there's competition: So gently hint that he's up against loads of other guys and you'll only choose the best of the lot! Something like saying "This guy at my work really fancies me! Keeps asking me out all the time!" Or "My neighbour asked me out for dinner the other day!" or "Someone left flowers on my desk at work yesterday! Still trying to find out who this secret admirer is!" It will drive him crazy and he'll work harder for your attention!

Okay so that's it!! Hope you enjoyed todays post! I'll be back shortly!
Love,

How to get over a break up.

Hello everybody!
It's been a while hasn't it?
God, so much has happened lately!! I've just come back from the beautiful Dutch capital of Amsterdam! Its such an amazing city and I wish i could be back there! Only problem was that I went with a male.... yes... I know.... He's my best friend-- No wait. He WAS my best friend. Well, to cut a long story short, He text me on monday to say that he didn't want to see me anymore.. I was a little broken, to be honest. After all those years of 'friend-zoning' him i never though that HE would dump me!!
So.. what exactly can help you to get over a break up? What can help keep the depression at bay??
Well!!! Unfortunately, I am now an expert!! haha

1. Wine, Wine and more WINE! - As the saying goes, Wine is a girls best friend!! Well, it HAS to be now that my 'man' is nowhere to be seen.... Yet, a man could never make you feel better than a glass or three of wine!!

2. A Pamper evening!! - Nothing beats a pamper evening! Plus, it doesn't break the bank either!! Grab a face mask, your favourite nail varnish, (DO NOT forget wine!), a bowl of popcorn and whack on a DVD!! #UltimateBliss!

3. Your right hand.. - Admit it... A male could never please you more than your right hand could... EVER!

4. And lastly, a good cry - Sometimes we want to show the world that we're absolutely fine, but deep down inside we're actually being torn apart. Sometimes we want to show him that we wouldn't actually give a sh*t if he walked away, but really we're afraid that we won't find anyone who made us feel as wonder struck and utterly starry-eyed as he made us feel. But sometimes, even if it is behind closed doors, we need to just let it all out and accept how we really feel inside.

So That's it!! I hope you've enjoyed this post!! I promise I will come back more regularly!!
'Til next time!
