The Dateable Dork

Dating (mis)adventures of an unexpectedly sexy New Yorker

  • About Me

    I’m a 30-year-old (!!!), single, charming, and totally dorky girl taking on the ridiculous New York dating scene. When guys are surprised to see a sex kitten emerge from behind my dorky exterior, I just smile and reply, “Who ever said that dorks can’t be sexy?" [More]

Speaking of confessions…

30 Apr 2009

Getting my little weight-related confession off my chest yesterday was such a relief that I’ve decided to let out a few more.  Doesn’t it feel good to get things off your chest – things that have been stewing in your subconscious for a while, fermenting, eating away at you?  Ewww, yeah, let’s get rid of [...]

The awful truth, and what I’m gonna do about it

29 Apr 2009

I have a confession to make: I’ve been slowing but steadily gaining weight over the past six months or so, and I’m turning into a big fat blob.  No, seriously.  As in, my clothes don’t fit, I feel gross and huge all the time, I’m uncomfortable, and – did I mention – my clothes don’t [...]

Vaginal surgery, here I come

28 Apr 2009

Who could forget the latest chapter of my seemingly never-ending medical drama in which my poor little non-functional pussy was threatened with a knife and stitches?  Well, here’s the latest: although the prescription that I picked up a few weeks ago has been very successful in returning the pussy to a semi-normal state, the root [...]

My Craigslist missed connection: the Subway Adonis

27 Apr 2009

Date: Last Saturday Time: Late afternoon/early evening Place: A random subway car somewhere underneath the city Soundtrack: Angels singing, birds chirping, headboards creaking, etc. Me: A tired, sweaty chick galavanting around with a friend on a gorgeous (but hot and sticky) summer-like day.  My flip-flop-enveloped feet are covered with a thick layer of dirt, my [...]

Rants and raves: my opinions on sex-related issues

26 Apr 2009

I don’t normally use this blog to voice my opinions on politics/religion/etc., but peeps, there is just too much interesting stuff going on right now, and I feel the need to comment.  Let me preface this post by saying that I don’t intend to offend, insult, or criticize anyone.  I respect the fact that everyone [...]

Quick weekend update

26 Apr 2009

Dudes, the weather here in the northeast has been absolutely FANTASTIC this weekend.  It’s been 85 degrees and sunny, and I’m just about bursting at the seams with summery excitement.  I’m like a kid in a candy store!  Yay!!!!  It’s really amazing how much the great weather has been impacting my mood, for the better.  [...]

Climbing out of the hole

23 Apr 2009

When I was a junior in high school, we had to write an original poem and recite it to the entire class.  This was just about the most terrifying assignment I’d ever been given in my entire 16 years of life.  I didn’t know what to write about, I sucked at poetry, and the thought [...]

I think I need help

22 Apr 2009

Edited to add: Peeps, I was going to blog last night but I fell asleep on the couch!  Oops.  Just wanted to say thanks so much for all the encouragement – you guys are the best.  I’m feeling a little better and will write more tonight.  : ) I feel myself slipping into another round [...]

The breaking point: 3 rejections in 3 months

20 Apr 2009

I usually save my year-in-review post for the end of the year (here’s the 2008 version), but, my peeps, I think it’s time for a mid-year review.  It’s only April, but I feel like I’ve had one hell of a year already, what with the emotional roller coaster of dating and rejection.  Sad but true [...]

Blog update: photos from DD Version 1.0 are back!

19 Apr 2009

I don’t know about you, but I missed the various photos of myself from the old blog.  They were cute, no?  I created a new photo compilation page (see the new link in the navigation bar at the top of the page) with all the old photos, plus a directory of photos from various posts here on [...]
