The Friend Zone

I like you and you like me but for some reason I've decided that we are better off as friends. The belief is that despite our chemistry and sexual energy bubbling at the brim, you'd make a great friend. Yes my friend who have just been placed in the friend zone.
Many dread and loath the place so much that they will vent to their friends and on social networks about their struggles as a resident of the friend zone. Those who find themselves in this space are teased by their friends and are constantly reminded of their position by articles such as these and little celebrations such as Friend Zone Monday. Phrases like "You are such a great friend" "You are like a sibling to me" "Our friendship matters more to me than a relationship between the two of us" Drive the stake a bit further.

Those in the friend zone have this idea that by being in the friend zone they have access to you in ways a lover wouldn't: which is true. It is the desired outcome that is the pickle. Most of the time the time you won't move from the friend zone to being a lover. Your backstage pass in not one into the objection of your interest's heart but a front row seat to a show called: "Someone else has what's mine". While you watch, observe, be the shoulder to cry on, in between platonic hugs and late night chats about their current beau/beauties is a soul filled with hope and a sense of failure.

The friend zone is a win win situation if you ask me. Those in the friend zone are not the victims they would like us to believe, they take pleasure in being enslaved by the object of their affections. If one is to die a slow death, why not do it at the hands of the one who tugs at your heartstrings. Secondly these friends get a sense of importance out of the whole thing, they love being needed and being that should to cry on.
If you are in the friend zone I would suggest you man up or woman up and ask your master to release you  and take up the reigns. On the other hand if you have enslaved another, try a catch and release programme good for your urges and your slave's ego.
P.S To Those I have friend zoned I am sorry, it was unintentional.

Day 7. 23 more to go

Awuuuuu!!!! 3.5kg lost in 7 days! All hail the detox! 23 more days to go.

Day 6 of the 30 Day Detox

Day 6 suga!!! I have made it! Tomorrow is weigh in, I am confident and feeling more energised. My skin is still lagging behind :(. I guess I am a bit impatient with the whole idea. I am pleased with my new favourite treat Rooibos with no milk or sugar with lemon! I am keeping this even after this detox!

Day 5 of 30 Day Detox

Pheeuw!!! I have made to day 5 and goodness it's been a mission. I pleased with myself so far, looking forward to the end result which is healthier eating habits, glowing skin and weight loss. I spent last night and this morning at home: Home is my weakness because everything is in abundance, especially those delicious yet damaging winter comfort foods. I won't lie and say this detox will keep you full ( It definitely won't): The Extra space in your stomach is for water and air!!! Marching on(**,)

Relationship Agreement

I read with absolute pleasure that Facebook Billionaire Mark Zuckerberg and newly wed wife Priscilla Chan had a relationship contract when they moved in together. According to authors of various articles on the subject on the internet the two love birds probably had their lawyers hammer out the agreement. Their agreement is said to include the issues of personal time and living arrangements.
I wish I came up with such an agreement. The following would probably be some of my points
1. 1 Day a week is me day
2. Breakfast in bed on Saturdays
3. No going to bed angry
4. The bedroom is not an office nor is it a cinema. As a result no working and watching tv. Just sleeping and *@: *blush blush*
5. Where practical we have lunch together daily!
6. Each of us will learn the other's mother tongue.
7. My phone is my phone, your phone is our phone
8. 5 Days a week at least( We are all adults here! I hope ).
9. Communication is king
10. Everyday must have laughter, giggles, tickling, kisses and hugs.
Like all contracts my points are subject to agreement and compromise

Day 4 of the 30 Day Detox

Day 4 is worse than day 1 for some weird reason! I just feel more tempted to have junk today. I had to get on the scale to get some motivation why I shouldn't have any McDees! 2.7kg lost compared to day 1 is enough reason to stay away from those Goldern Arches!! It's exceed my weekly target of 2kg per week!!! Eating healthy forces me to be creative with my vegetable and fruit combinations with Fish. Going home this afternoon armed with my cooler bag filled with veggies and lentils! Wish me luck!!!

Winter Love

It's that time of the year when everyone seems to be on the body warmth quest. They somehow forget about fleece blankets, quilts, long johns and many other man made sources of body warmth. As a friend of mine once said: Nothing Beats the warmth of a thick thigh on a chilly winter night, oh I love winter. It's the only time of year where one is forgiven for having extra padding! I wonder what's the modus operandi of operation get body warmth. What ges on in the mind of people on the hunt? Perhaps it's the same as the usual all time hunting. I hope everyone gets extra cosy and warm this winter whether you are alone in the bed like me or with someone, special or otherwise.

30 Day Detox

Day 2 Of the 30 Day Detox!!! Day 1 was okay I guess, didn't think much about it because it was spent on the road and I was pretty busy! No Meat! No Dairy! No Caffeine! No Alcohol ( this is fine because it doesn't matter to me)! No processed Foods! No Raw Salt! No Fizzy Drinks! No Sugar! Had raw beetroot leaves! Keeping strong!
