My Dating Diary

I’m happily single but that is not my first choice! At the encouragement of some friends I am now putting my hand in the ring and exploring the fine art of dating. I am a complete novice so I am going to take you on the journey with me. Fasten your seat belts, I think we are in for a really exciting ride!

The love affair has begun

February 15, 2017 By //  by Carole Pyke Leave a Comment

Yes, the love affair has begun! If you had said to me three months ago that I would eagerly sign up for a one-day event entitled ‘Relationship Intensive’ I would have been busily dialling the emergency services because you had to be crazy!  But as I waited for the doors to open in London on a cold and early Saturday morning I realised just how much had changed in those …

What is stopping me from joining a dating agency? Am I not ready to start dating? I say I'd like a husband and unless I find someone to arrange a marriage for me (any matchmakers out there?) I …

Love at first sight

Dear Diary, Do you believe in love at first sight? I must confess I love the idea of eyes meeting across a crowded space. I actually have my own personal fantasy.

Do you know my husband?

June 27, 2016 By //  by Carole Pyke Leave a Comment

Dear Diary, When I introduce myself at the workshops I host,  I often include the following description: "I'm single and someone knows my husband and just in case it's you, please feel free to introduce him!" This is often greeted with lots of laughter and of course no one takes me seriously. But I am single and someone does know my husband, but apparently I don't know that …
