I’m Roxy. I’m single, I’m in my 40s, and I live in London. I’ve never wanted to have children, and while I’ve been engaged twice (one was more of a technicality), I’ve managed to successfully avoid getting married.
I reached a point in my dating life where I needed to pause and reflect before jumping onto apps (and indeed jumping into bed with anyone else), so that’s exactly what this is: a journey of self-discovery, understanding repeat patterns of behaviour and holding myself accountable.
It is therefore aptly named ‘Oh God, What Was I Thinking’.
Each blog post will be about one person I’ve had a sexual encounter with, in chronological order. Some will clearly take a lot more writing than others. But I want it to be honest and self-reflective. If you’re expecting me to be cruel and critical of these people, then you will be disappointed, because that’s not what this is about.
I’m not going to use anyone’s real names (they have been reduced to numbers for this exercise), and I will try to hold back any details which could reveal who they are. However, should any of them stumble across this blog, they’ll know. Oh, they’ll know…
Comments are welcome, and discussion is encouraged. But please note that I am writing this for me.
Enjoy!
