About Potted Plant
I won't tell you my age, but I will tell you all about my dates! After a long relationship which started in my teens, I blazed back into the dating world 5 years ago and have bumps, bruises and bubbly moments to share wtih you. I don't understand men. I don't understand women. I don't understand how to use call-waiting on my cell phone.

What’s Considered Cheating?
This blog is not short on posts about cheating. We all say its wrong and we all know that it can erode a relationship faster than anything else. But what actually comprises cheating?
Now I know some of you are shocked that I can even ask this question - sleep with someone else and it’s over. [...]
What’s Your Definition of Love?
It’s taken me years to learn that this is a question two people dating need to ask each other. It’s taken me even longer to figure out my own answer. Based on my dating experience, I can probably tell you what it is not - it is not great sex, it is not passionate kisses [...]
The First Kiss
I have a friend who seems to have the most awkward first kisses. No matter what he does, his first kisses always end up being weird. Car kiss, weird couch kiss, doorstep fumble. He just can’t seem to get it right. As much as I laugh at him, I kind of feel sorry for him.
So [...]
Sex is Better in Your 30s
6 girls decide to get together for dinner. 6 bottles of wine are consumed. And then the real conversations begin.
“We had sex four times last night!”
“Really?? No way! No wonder you date younger!”
“Did anything interesting happen??”
“What wasn’t interesting?? I woke up in the middle of the night to him kissing my inner thigh. You know [...]
I didn’t even like him…
We met at a work event. It was his first day, and my 4 month. We chatted a bit - he was new and I was trying to be nice. We decided to grab lunch a few weeks later and then coffee ever so often. I could sense that he was interested in me. I [...]
The Pick-Up Artist
If I ever meet Neil Strauss, I am going to take my shoe off and shove it in his left ear.
He sucks big time for writing a book - no a bible - on how big time tools can land hot chicks. He has single handedly ruined the fun in dating by “programatizing” how [...]
Older Woman Seeking Boy Toy
I decided to address Rebecca’s comment and write about my propensity to date younger men. Being the good little blogger that I am, I did a little research on the exact definition of a cougar and found that there are multiple variations:
Puma - A woman who is not quite old enough to be a [...]
My Dating Life Playlist
Mr. Ethical Slut’s last post got me thinking - what are the top ten songs that describe my dating experiences? In no particular order, they are:
1. Fool of Me - Me’Shell Ndegeocello: We have all that one person who we thought liked us more than they did. You thought it was more serious than it was - [...]
7 Things You Should Never Say to Your Single Friends
1. It’s a numbers game: That is the last thing someone who just closed 1,456 matches on e-Harmony wants to hear. The absolute last thing.
2. It just takes one: No pressure. None at all there.
3. Been on any hot dates lately?: If we are on hot date, you will know about it. Everyone will - they [...]
Do As I Say, Not As I Do
I am going to tell you to be confident and ask the guy you are interested in out. Walk up to him and tell him you want to take him to dinner. Tell him that you think his shirt looks great, that you like his new haircut.
But I have never asked a guy [...]
