Girl on the Net

NEW blog!

I set out to find a date within twelve hours. Could I summon a man to come hang out with me on the same day I set up my profile, then get him to bang me sideways in the twin room of a Travelodge?

I’m going back to bed now to sleep off my epic hangover. This had better have a load of shares by the time I wake up or you’re all in the doghouse x

Efficient dating 2: How to talk yourself out of a fuck | Girl on the Net

We're snogging at my hotel, his dick is literally in my hand, and I really want to get laid. And yet! This man still managed to talk himself out of a fuck.

@girlonthenet Oh my. This resonates on so many levels that aren't even sexual for me, but rather relate to disabled life in a majority non-disabled world. The changing rules of engagement, the tiredness, the struggle to maintain empathy and a measured response, the bar being so low... all of it.

@girlonthenet @stuart_cb Great writing, and really clear articulation of a story that's not often told. Sorry it turned out like this, and I'm with the people in the comments who say that three times is two too many.

@djm4 yeah, it is too many. I think I've had a number of interactions like this in my life, and it is quite tiring.

@girlonthenet Yeah. Sending you strength, sympathy and solidarity, if they're welcome.

@girlonthenet This one stuck with me overnight, I'm still baffled at how any of his actions after you asked him to slow down made any kind of sense to him.

@girlonthenet a TWIN room?!
Love yourself, ma'am. Get the giantest -- wait. If you save money on the room, you could spend more on equipment. hmmmm

@MxVerda @stuart_cb it was originally booked for me and a mate and we don’t traditionally sleep in the same bed 😂

@girlonthenet Just discovered your work and it's my new favourite thing on the internet!

I couldn't help but laugh at the overeagerness. I imagine a lot of guys are result-oriented and treat sex like a burger and fries. If you're invited to a restaurant, savour the full three course meal!

@feijoa haha yes exactly! Savour meeeeee!

@girlonthenet last sentence of that makes me so damned happy for you. And for him, come to that. The best things in my life have happened because (at least sometimes) I pay attention :)

I really enjoyed this.
I just wonder how the gig was 😀

@girlonthenet "Part 2 of my efficient dating experience coming… soon. But not too soon." Truly excellent! 👌

That whole piece was a great read.

Your writing always restores my hope that the straights might be alright after all (mostly referring to you). It's really impressive how you navigate the dynamics of being horny with men, while valuing yourself.

I also really appreciate the safety aside. I knew you would've taken care, but it was still on my mind, so the explicit note was reassuring.

@lunarood thank you so much! I’m glad that aside was useful- it was the hardest thing to convey when editing and I realised I should just be super explicit about it.
