Girl About Auckland

Spinster-doom

So this website/blog business is up and running, and I’m enjoying reporting in with the 4-1-1 on my latest observations. Funnily enough, when you search on Google for “Girl about Auckland” the search results return escort agencies and strippers…..I don’t know what that says about me….

This morning on TVNZ’s Breakfast show, there was a segment on ‘How Not to Be a Spinster‘.  Being a single wahine in my early 30s, I found myself nodding along, relating to fears of living alone childless with cats, until you are thrown a zimmer frame or carried out in a casket.

But one things for sure, I’m doing my damndest to get out and about in Auckland, but without reeking of desperation – and am very far away from exposing cougar claws.

Yes I am experimenting with online dating (talking to and meeting some crazy-ass men), and yes I pretty much accept any invitation to hang with friends and family (there may be men there, it’s a single girls’ golden rule), but it’s also important to look after oneself too -  visit the gym on a regular basis, have an early night occasionally, and ring ya mum every once in a while.

I’m a firm believer that when one door shuts, another door opens and I’m optimistic about the future.  It’s all good in my hood.
