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.

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 [...]
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 out. [...]
Don’t Hate the Player, Hate the Game
It all started at a singles party. I didn’t even want to go, but my friend dragged me, kicking and screaming making it clear that my couch, a cheesy movie and glass of wine were not going to happen that Saturday night. The party was at a friend’s house and as we walked through the [...]
French Kissing 101
Every girl has a story about the bad kisser. The guy that slobbered all over her face, almost stuck his tongue down her throat, flossed her teeth instead of turned her on. I could go on and on about how terrible it is to have all romantic hope killed by Mr. Cotton Mouth puckering all [...]
Revenge of the Nerds
Damn you Juno. Damn you for exposing what I have known for years and for making it a movie. You have ruined my dating life. You showed all women how great nerds can be to date and now all these women are after my pool of men. Damn You. I am not sure when my [...]
The New Me
I broke up with him. He cheated. He wouldn’t commit. He begged me to come back. I said no. He was devastated. He wanted to marry me. He just needed a little more time. I gave him too much time. He said I was the love of his life – his soul mate. He was [...]
