About TheGirlGlory

I’m a single woman in her early 30s. I have good hair, most of my faculties, and a few attractive personality traits. I have an annoying laugh.

I’m also your average “nice Christian girl” who goes to church on Sundays. This year, I’m taking a new step of faith – online dating – and this is my dating diary.

I’ve put off online dating for a long time, but recently I had an epiphany. I realised I’d gone a year without a single date, and frankly that made me sad. I also noticed that every time I had smokin’ hot tickets for the best show in town, my friends cried off because they had a small creature to feed, burp or entertain.

In other words, I want to do cool stuff, I want to meet some nice guys while I’m doing it, and ultimately I’d like one of them to be so amazing that we then give up doing the cool stuff to be boring and stay home all the time.

Why haven’t I found someone already? Well, as many of us know all too well, women make up about two-thirds of most church congregations. Christians seems to marry young. You do the math, and tell me how many guys are left over.

So, I’m off into the deep, dangerous waters of online dating – if only to prevent other people telling me “I can’t believe you haven’t been snapped up yet!” as if I was a piece of haddock. As any singleton knows, this is about the least helpful thing you can hear from someone who’s already got their love life sorted. Anyway, this haddock has decided not to wait around any longer…
