So it's been ages since my last blog post...

Well it has been an awful long time since I posted anything to my blog. To be honest nothing I ever posted before really warranted reading but I think this does.

Now all my life I have been a strong advocate of people dating/shagging within their own age bracket of a year or two either way. I know some people disagree with this and fair enough, each to their own. Yet my experiences over the last two weeks changed all this, opened my eyes shall we say.

Now I'm not the best looking guy in the world, I'm tall just over 6ft 1. I'm starting to age a little to fast for my liking which isn't cool and I've noticed that on nights out girls my age tend to blow me off when I try chatting to them. Two years ago I never got this reaction so understandably I was a little concerned that I was losing my charm. This was all to change when I visited some friends in Manchester, first night there we all went out got suitably tipsy and headed into a nice enough bar. A drink or two later and a friend of mine spotted two rather attractive young women sitting on their own looking a little bored. Having just come back from his trip to america where girls threw themselves at him because of his english accent he was feeling a little cocky and decided he'd go try his luck but felt he needed a wingman. So up I stepped, ever the trusty friend and as the others put it easily the best wingman you could ask for. I thought I'd give him a minute or two then as the girl he was chatting too was about to to point out she couldnt ignore her friend I went in drawing the friend away and starting a simple conversation.

To cut a long story short it turned out that the girl I was talking to was from Helsinki and was visiting her friend for the weekend. I learnt an awful lot about finland and helsinki and about her job as a tax auditor then it slowly dawned on me as I did the math that she had to be into her thirties. I casually dropped it into the conversation that she must have been a genius to have done so little before 25. I comment that made her laugh and point out she was in fact 32, I was surprised. This woman looked no older than me and was gorgeous. We spent the rest of the night together eventually as we were about to go back to my hotel room we found her friend who had ditched my mate and started drinking heavily as she was being ignored passed out in the corner of the club. I had been cockblocked by a drunken friend and ended up helping them home before leaving. I was gutted but susprised at how the evening had turned out. Where as before I had been very set in my views I was now wondering what if I was wrong?

The following week we went out again to the same club. This time I saw a girl about my age and starting chatting, she blew me off pretty quickluy saying I wasn't her type. Then while chatting to a friend who quickly popped to the bar leaving me alone for all of 30 seconds a girl approached me and struck up conversation. Once again she was older around 29 and very intelligent and successful, we stayed talking for an hour or two. I was flirting outrageously and she was loving it but we were interrupted by her twin sister who was feeling ill and wanted to go home. I was devastated but got a phone number and made a promise to call her if I was ever near her way again. So slightly despondent I made my way to the bar but before I could get there I was intercepted by a very attractive woman again. I couldn't believe my luck, we started talking and she found I was a very good listener (I believe within 30 minutes I knew her entire life story but not her name). She was also older around 31 and also intelligent. She introduced me to her friends who commented that we looked incredibly good together and couldn't believe I was only 22 (a comment which I pretended to take badly leading to a lot of attention from said woman). We eventually went back to mine and she couldn't wait to get into bed. At this point I was slightly concerned, she wasn't wearing a skimpy outfit so I had no idea what to expect from her body, her face was gorgeous and as far as I could tell she was in decent shape. When she stripped off all I can say is wow. She had arguably the best body of any woman I have ever had the pleasure of taking to bed. We then had some of the best and longest sex I had ever had and she definately taught me a trick or two. This was continued in the morning where she was even more beautiful than the drunken night before. I had to pinch myself several times to remind myself I wasn't dreaming.

So now I am in a conundrum, my experiences tell me that older women are better in every way. Yet my mind reminds me that no matter how good they are now, one day you will be in the prime of your life and they will be middle aged. Arghh the decisions... Yet for the moment I think I will enjoy my new found charm and see what it brings me. Though I should also try and see if I can get back into the knack of talking to younger women. Even if their conversations are incredibly one dimensional and boring.

Much love Affairlook

Rising Sign is in 17 Degrees Taurus
Calm and deliberate, you hate to move quickly or act hastily. Very practical, every effort must count or you can't be bothered. Patient, persistent and steady, but very stubborn -- you can't be pushed or pressured into anything. You seem outwardly self-assured because you tend to repress your inner tension and turmoil. You exude an earthy warmth, friendliness and charm. You demand comfortable surroundings and appreciate the good life. Be careful of a tendency to be overly self-indulgent. At times, you are lazy and difficult to motivate. Overcoming inertia is a problem for you and, because you are not by nature a self-starter, it is often necessary for you to receive stimuli from others in order to get moving.

Sun is in 26 Degrees Capricorn.
Extremely serious and mature, you are capable of accepting responsibilities and do so willingly. Others expect you to be dutiful as a matter of course. You tend to get angry when people get rewards after not having worked anywhere near as hard as you. You are goal-oriented and an achiever by nature -- you're a hard worker and are justifiably proud of the tangible results of your efforts. You tend to have "tunnel-vision" -- this allows you to block out extraneous matters that might distract others and to concentrate totally on the matter at hand. As such, you are the ideal one to manage or administrate any ongoing project and to be practical and efficient at it. You are not a fast worker, but you are quite thorough. You are known for being totally persistent, tenacious and tireless in reaching your goals.

Moon is in 02 Degrees Capricorn.
You are serious and shy and very uncomfortable in those situations where spontaneous and exuberant emotional reactions seem called for. An achiever, you prefer doing practical, worthwhile things that produce tangible results. You need role models to respect, love and emulate. You tend to feel that you're a failure unless you get an important and highly respected position in life. Don't be so hard on yourself! For you, practical needs always win out over emotional considerations. Remember that you too have the right to comfort, security and love. Dutiful and patient, when you make an emotional commitment, you sign on for the long haul -- your love is long- enduring.

Mercury is in 11 Degrees Aquarius.
You tend to be very opinionated -- you have strongly felt notions about things and are quite vocal about expressing and defending them. Yet you are also an original thinker -- you enjoy shocking others with your offbeat, original thoughts. You appreciate and need mental and intellectual stimulation. Your judgment is usually fair and impartial -- you can be a good critic because you can remain objective and unemotional about most things.

Venus is in 02 Degrees Pisces.
You have a dreamy, fanciful, romantic nature and a very creative imagination. Indeed, at times, your private fantasies are more appealing than the reality around you and it is difficult for you to leave them. You tend to be unselfish and giving in relationships and are extremely sensitive of the needs of others. Be very sure that those you help are worthy of your devotion and are not merely taking advantage of your innocence and naivete.

Mars is in 05 Degrees Sagittarius.
Your every action is motivated by high moral standards and ideals. You will work very hard to improve the lot of the world at large, but you demand action about it -- you do not like to just sit around and talk about doing it in an abstract manner. You like to be where the real action is. You resist mightily any attempts to limit your freedom and you will assist anyone who feels put down and restricted. You are extremely restless by nature -- physical exercise is very important to you if you would maintain your health.

Jupiter is in 21 Degrees Aries.
The way that you grow and develop is by being an uncompromising individualist. You have a great need to be yourself and to explore your latent talents and abilities. Do not be afraid to let yourself go and develop self-confidence and pride in your accomplishments. But try not to become so self-centered that you ignore the needs of others. Also, you may have to build up your self-discipline in order to focus your energies properly.

Saturn is in 27 Degrees Sagittarius.
Basically quite conservative, you respect traditional authority figures and are very thankful and supportive of the laws and institutions which govern your life. You learn and accept new ideas only after having very thoroughly examined them. Ideals and abstract concepts are important to you only if they can be used in some practical fashion. You are so practical and so orderly that you have natural skills in planning, administrating and organizing.

Uranus is in 28 Degrees Sagittarius.
You, and most of your peers, have the tendency to think that all ideas, customs and traditions from the past are outmoded and irrelevant. You are attracted to radically new ideas, philosophies and religions that will, hopefully, cause sweeping changes throughout the world.

Neptune is in 08 Degrees Capricorn.
You, and your entire generation, will idealize work, practicality and the ability to attain reasonable goals. But, because you will also stress the need to be selfless and giving, you may find it difficult to attain your goals unless you have lowered your expectations on all fronts.

Pluto is in 12 Degrees Scorpio.
For your entire generation, this is a period of intense research and discovery in areas that were heretofore considered mysterious, remote or taboo. The root causes for many complex occurrences will be unearthed due to the intensity and thoroughness of the search.

N. Node is in 24 Degrees Pisces.
You're attracted to others who need your assistance. You seem to go out of your way to form relationships with those who are weak, sick, injured, addicted or troubled in some way or other. At your best you can indeed provide the relief that others need. But at times you can be victimized by those who would prey on your good nature and take advantage of you. This can lead to all sorts of negative situations -- make sure that those you assist are truly worthy of your time, energy and commitment. A little enlightened self-protectiveness on your part can make your life work much, much smoother!

I wish I never had to work. Hopefully I can find a very rich woman and be her toyboy (any offers? LO. Slaving away everyday for minimum wage with customers treating you as though your an idiot. I don't intend keeping the job I have for my whole life, just till I go to uni or find an easier one that pays well. But some people seem to think this is what I will be doing for the rest of my life so I must be an idiot. Excuse me??? I may look dull but people should never judge a book by its cover. Ohh well another day another rant at the world around me.

The woes of ending a holiday. Going through 6 securiyy checks at an airport is never fun especially as I always get stopped. I must have criminal written on my face, once again I was searched at 6 different places in Moi airport in Mombasa, Kenya only to get back to Gatwick to be searched in customs again! Lol anyone else have ths problem? I wish I was back in Kenya though. The people smile far more than us Brits even though 60% of the population lives way below the poverty line. I'm thinking of sponsering an orphan to go to school out there. 40 pounds isn't much even for a poor student like me and at least I know I'm giving them a chance at a life. I went swimming with Dolphins!! Well I wasn't meant to be I was scuba diving in a coral reef and they came to say Jambo. Well i'm sure your bored by now if you are reading this so I'll stop. I'll update tomorow after my first day back at work

p.s: Any donations to "I wish I was back in Kenya Fund" will be greatly appreciated!

Cheers Benx
