His roving eyes and being snowbound...
Seeing the piece in the papers about research into 'how a man's eyes reveal his desires' I had to laugh and I certainly know that's true from when I was last single.
I was once set up by an acquaintance with a wealthy and successful single man (won't name his occupation as that might give it away) who had been on something like Cosmo's 'top 50 bachelors list' and from the moment we met his eyes weren't roaming across my face and his ears weren't listening to what I was saying - he literally undressed me - so to speak - with his eyes.
When I extricated myself after a single glass of wine (from what was supposed to be a dinner date), he then passed comment - as he looked in my eyes (the first time that evening!) - that he 'would have me in bed before Christmas' (Christmas was about two weeks away!). Needless to say when he rang for another date I turned him down.
Later when I recounted this dating disaster to girlfriends it transpired they'd all had similar experiences with roving eyes. We decided roving eyes are a giveaway that that's all he wants - confirming this research - so if you're going out on a date and he can only eye-up your body, watch out!
Looking at the snowy winter wonderland outside my window this morning I was torn between two thoughts: it looks so beautiful + how am I going to get to my meetings and drinks tonight without slipping and sliding?! And these were drinks with my friend I had to cancel last Wednesday because of the snow!
As I've said before I'm an avid public transport user - but having been stuck on freezing tubes or waiting in the snow for buses too much in the last few weeks I might just crack and take a cab. But I really hate not using public transport! I want this planet to be around for when I have grandchildren.
Is someone not being exactly ‘abusive’ to you, but still not treating you quite right? Well, today on iVillage.co.uk I've blogged about a woman who has been letting her boyfriend treat her in a second-rate way. If that's you, then check it out!
TODAY’S THOUGHT: Many people find it hard to decide whether they're making too much of a fuss if their partner/boyfriend/girlfriend isn't doing what they say they will, being a bit disrespectful and neglectful. But I've got a rule of thumb - if the person you love is behaving in a way that makes you feel bad inside, and makes you question whether or not you’re "right" to feel bad - then it's 99% sure they need their socks pulling up. This is all about your intuition (I will bang on about intuition) - it was given to us so that we listen to it. So open your ears, listen, and tell them you’ll not accept their behaviour!
Definitely need some energising music this morning to get me going - maybe I'll go for some good old Green Day, Kings of Leon, or Foo Fighters.
Have a good one, love, Dr Pam X
