Valentine’s Day is nearly upon us… and so the last minute gift buying begins. However, whether you’re single or in a relationship, there is a sex toy for you. Whether it be to spice up your Valentine’s night with your partner, or to experience bed-shaking pleasure with some solo-sex (cause who needs a man when you have a rabbit, right?),…
This post was written by an anonymous contributor. I came out as a lesbian in 2010, at 15 years old. After couple of years of hiding who I was from everyone I knew, I had the gut feeling that being authentic with the people in my life was something I really believed in. Now, almost 10 years later, I am…
I’ve heard alot of dating advice in my short time as a dating blogger and researcher. I’ve read, listened to and watched plenty of people dish out the hot goss and best tricks to bag “the one”. Some of this advice can be quite helpful, but some of what I’ve heard isn’t great, and comes from a place of hurt,…

Ever been guilty of keeping a potential partner waiting in the wings while in a relationship with someone else? Well, turns out, you’re not alone. If you’re like the average young adult, chances are you’ve been keeping in contact with other potential…
I have a few single friends who are absolutely terrified of dating apps. They hate them with a passion and are physically stressed at the suggestion of using them. Here’s me piping up “let’s play tinder!”, only to be met with a stare which could kill. There is the underlying concrete belief that dating apps are awful. But are they…
Did you know, on average Brits will meet “the one” by the age of 28, and typically date 6 people before settling down? We live in a world with more than 7 billion other people. Seven billion. Despite being so many, every day, people find the person they want to be with for the rest of their lives. Two people, finding each other…
With research showing that millennials spend an astonishing 10 hours per week on dating apps alone, it’s high time for the return of meeting people in real life, and for the “meet cute” era to re-establish itself. It’s time for the endless swiping left, swiping right, with no foreseeable end to be put aside. With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, many of us…
So the day has come… you’ve met someone, whether online or in person and you’ve arranged the first date. Gah! It can be sooo nerve wracking. What if you come cross like a total idiot? What if you do that thing when you laugh and snort? What if this, what if that… What if they’re totally NOT right for me??…

We’re getting married in April next year and I can’t wait to begin our lives together. I’ve been with 2 other guys, when we were on a break 6 years ago, and thats…
A few weeks ago, I popped along to the latest Tenga Talk and saw Anouszka Tate, who chats all things sex and relationships on the “Project Pleasure” podcast, on the panel. After a fabulous evening, and lots of interesting issues raised and questions answered, I thought, “I recognise Anouszka” and it was only after that I realised it was…
The pre-Internet Dark Ages: a time where social media consisted of drawing hearts on the corner of notebooks, and folding decorated origami into a fortune teller for your friends. One phone number sufficed for the whole family. Impressions were opinions. Tweets were bird noises. Trolls were huge ugly goblin monsters. And dating was simpler. Or was it? So much has…
Sensitivity, sensuality and creativity… Awaken your feminine energy with Horoscope by Bijoux Indiscrets! I’ve always had a slight obsession with horoscopes and birth gemstones (older friends will remember my gem stone collections… and rock polisher *nerd*), so when Bijoux brought out the Horoscope “treat box” as I’ll call it, I was pretty intrigued. It’s unique and different, and quite unlike other…
I know you know you need it. I know you think “nothing is wrong with me”. I know it’s a daunting, unpleasant idea, plus requires taking time off work or organising, but it really could save your life. New research has shown that nearly a third of women ignored their latest invitation for an appointment, and screening rates are at their…
I was asked the other day, “do you think it’s harder to date in London than in other places?” and I thought, good question. I used to live in London: first Hackney then Balham, and worked in Soho for 3 years so I know the dating scene well. I’ve dated myself, I’ve seen friends and colleagues date, and am friends…

It keeps us ticking, it’s a purpose that runs through our veins. Those who blog for the genuine love of writing, helping, seeking out new ideas and enjoying being…
Moving in together. The never-ending sleepover with your best friend. It’s a big step. It’s actually pretty scary, you’ve gone from living in your own places, having your own spaces, to now… everything is shared. But before you run for the door and change your mind… fear not! If you’re ready for it, then it can be the absolute best…
