Should not be allowed my phone when drunk

So I wake up the next morning after not nearly enough sleep feeling a little worse for wear to see I've received a couple of messages from guys I had chatted to online on my way home last night.

 

Oh dear, it all comes flooding back. 

 

I respond to them with  🙈.

 

I get a response from one and we chat about last night. Next thing I know we are arranging to meet in a coffee shop at 9.45.

 

Am I mad, meeting for a coffee date tired and hungover? That's a rhetorical question of course I am.

 

Oh well. He knows my fragile state. I'm also a little too tired to be nervous so perhaps it's a good time to get the meet up over with.

 

Fingers crossed ladies he looks like his pictures at least.



Hung over coffee date.

 

I'm running late. Got stuck on a really important phone call about my daughter.

 

He's ok with it though.

 

We get a drink and sit and chat. Another genuinely nice guy with gorgeous eyes.

 

Like most people including myself he doesn't look quite as good as his pics. He also looks a lot older than 33.

 

We have a good time though and he is easy to chat too. Right up until he drops me at my car. 

That's when I realise I've misplaced my handbag. 

 

Oh no!!! This is what happens when you're feeling fragile.

 

Back to the coffee shop we go. Thankfully the staff had found it. Phew!! What a relief.

That wasn't the kind of adrenaline rush I was looking for from a date. 🤣
