I know reality shows are a bit of fun and escapism. I want to shut off my brain and tune in for the dramas and different types of behaviours and revelations..
And to learn about how couples relate to each other because I've never been a part of a couple and doubt I ever will be, so this is the only way to observe it.
It brings up questions for me..... Should you change for someone?
Or is it personal growth? How do you maintain a semblance of yourself while trying to please someone else?
Is that healthy? Will you end up with resentments or be thankful you've grown with confidence?
I've seen instances where someone is shy and reserved and they are paired with someone outgoing and talkative..
It doesn't really mesh well, the confident one, loves the sound of their own voice too much and the quiet person, observes and takes it in..
I'd take it personally if someone said I don't like your dress style, let me take you shopping to pick things out for you.....
Hmm, my style is my own, if you don't like it, don't wear it.
But if they said it differently.... I would like to treat you and further explore some more feminine outfits that I think you would feel and look great in, obviously the final decision is yours..
Then I would be more receptive to it. I'd still have my own input and to be honest, I do mainly wear trousers and pretty tops because I'm not the most comfortable in dresses or skirts.
To be honest, I haven't tried on a dress in years. I wonder now with this significant weight loss, would I look better?
I look in the mirror and I see this heavy set person, when I don't look in the mirror, I see a smaller version of myself.
With dating, I know you have to put the effort in and look nice for one another, but you also have to feel good in your chosen attire, otherwise you spend it awkwardly self conscious..
Hmm I kinda stick to the same toastie routine, cheese, egg or meats..
I'm thinking of changing it up and making it sweet toasties instead.....
Jam is too sweet, I thought there was a reduced fat one in Iceland but nope.
The problem is, so is hazelnut spread but what if I tapered it with something savoury?
I thought fruits but it's a lil pricey... Then lemon curd, is an interesting ingredient... Sweet, yet tangy...
I know most would pair it with bananas, but that's not my thing. Pears would be interesting but again, pricey and I need something to stretch it out for the week...
I've seen the frozen berry fruits are on sale 2x £5, which is better than paying £3 for 1 bag and it won't spoil..
Could be like a brekkie dessert type thingy...?!
I know it seems like sweet on sweet, but sometimes blueberries, raspberries and redcurrants have a slight bitterness to them.
Plus there is blackberries, strawberries and blackcurrants. It just sounds like a tall glass of Vimto, which was a blended berry drink, yum.
I'm not completely sold on the lemon curd.... I'll keep looking...
The other crazy thought I had was adding cereal to it or oats, sounds strange but intriguing or nuts...
All this has to fit into a budget.. I might just leave it to the fruit and chocolate...
I could do the same with croissants, make them loaded with chocolate and fruit....
