About Me

It’s hard being single these days (especially when all your friends are in a relationship). The Rom-Com had it all wrong! A girl does not see a guy from across the room and he does not approach her.. Nor does the best friend suddenly realize he had always loved his girl BFF. What’s worse is that I am Korean, the Rom-Coms have NOTHING on Korean Dramas, where the guy ALWAYS falls for the “nice” girl and the bitchy girl gets shafted.


About Me

I am a late bloomer. When I was in high school about to pick my university I chose to study psychology (but ended up with a Honours Bachelor of Arts in History and Political Science). What I should have done is taken Business (but at that time I thought business was entrepreneurship, not knowing there were other aspects to business). I went to Waterloo for 2 years studying Psychology and Sociology. I did so poorly I was about to go on probation. Tell my parents that I was getting kicked out of school for a year? Yeah right! So I did the next best thing. I transferred to U of T. That's when I realized the reason why I was doing so poorly in school was because I didn't like Psychology and Sociology, you basically learn about the same theorists, but they twist their theories to suite your class. So in my second year at U of T, which technically should have been my 4th year, I switched to History and Political Science.

I didn’t graduate university in 3-4 years like everyone else. It took me 5 years to graduate, where I cut out my friends for the last 2 years so I can focus on my studies. While studying, I worked for a real estate brokerage part time and once I graduated I worked there full time. If it wasn’t for that job, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I didn't get a real full time job until I was 27.

What constitutes are a real full time job?
  • Salary
  • Benefits
  • Ability to purchase grown up things (ie car)
  • Thinking of loan debt repayment plan
  • RRSP

Focusing on school for 2 years and then focusing on my career for 5 years, I have lost 5 years of “finding” someone special. Sure I have dated people, but I have not found Mr Right! This is a blog to document my adventures of my dating life. I have some funny stories to share. The dates are found through my mom, friends, online, and other places. If you thought finding someone at 20 something is hard!? Wait until you hit 30, the pool of dateable men get even smaller.

I hope my dates don’t find this blog.. :(

I don't  know what it is about this pandemic, perhaps it's boredom, but I have been willing to go on more dates, even though I have gain about 20 pounds after gaining 40 initially! I figure if they can like me with my pandemic weight, they really like me for who I am.  Specs: Asian Works for a weed company in Hamilton Used to write jingles Lives in mid-town in a condo, his brother and parents live in the same building Drives a X2 He has a J name, it's actually one of my favourite names I am not sure if all women do this, but when I am excited about a date, I will eat less the night before that way I am not bloated the next day, and give myself a facial that way my face looks refreshed. During this pandemic, my skin has been going through some horrible shit, I have broken out many times due to the sun. This time the night before I gave myself a facial Dermologica Hydration mask, drank lots of water, and I worked out. I ordered a dress online from H&M that I have deemed a...

Thought It Was Going To Be Kismet

 I went on Bumble because I was falsely hopeful yet again... My work friend have gone on some amazing dates (she pays for Bumble, I should real pay at least for two month). The date that I recently went on. Specs: 42 We actually went to the same middle school and high school YouTube content creator - Toronto & Travel content Smart/Intelligent Lives at Yonge and Eg No car Broke up with this girlfriend 6 months ago Father passed First it had annoyed me that he wanted me to pick the time and the place. The first, first date we were supposed to go on he cancelled because his friend was moving to NY and they were throwing a going away party. That was fine, I ended up flying out to Vancouver for the weekend. When we picked a new date, again, I had to pick a time and place. Since my girlfriends and I were going to do brunch in Toronto, I decided to meet at 2:30pm at a cafe by Bloor and Christie. I also wanted Hodo Kwaja (Walnut Cake) and I needed to pick up new face lotion, so it was ...

Slowly Being Ghosted??

Image
 Not too sure what happened after date 3.. He was all of a sudden a lot busier.. didn't message as much. I sort of understood where he was coming from.. He doesn't trust his trainers so I guess he has taken on more clients, considering he charges $250/hour that goes straight to his pockets. We were supposed to go on date 4 on Thursday because on Friday, I was going to Chicago.... but he had messaged Thursday afternoon to tell me he's not in a condition to meet up and have a conversation.. and slowly.. the messages are far and in between... sus? We were still chatting here and there, since I lost bowling, I owed him a facial. I didn't want to take him to a $200 facial that I've been wanting to try and I didn't want to take him to a facial place where I didn't know their standards. So, I asked him if he wanted to go to a facial or see Tina Turner musical. He said definitely the musical. I went a head a purchased the tickets for $300 (both). But because of his ...
