3) I'm about to embark on date number 4 with a girl tonight (she's 33), but the cracks and red flags are starting to show already. Date 1 was excellent, went for drinks and had a really good time, one of the most fun nights I've had with a girl in a very long time. She came across as having her shit together; has her own business and confident in what she wants in life. We quickly scheduled a second date, more great chat, very attractive, stayed at her place that night (no sex). Arranged to meet for dinner on date 3 and I said "can i stay over again?" to which she said "nah, let's not do that just now" - fine by me, it was only date 3. Went for food (on Wednesday), few drinks in and she wants me to go back to hers (was about 9pm by this point) - I said "thought you didn't want to? I've got no overnight stuff with me and I've got work in the morning". This was perceived by her as rejection. She walked me to the train station and I got a later train back home when the text messages started "you're bored of me already" and "you're clearly not feeling it". This came out the blue, so I said "umm, I had a good night, where is this coming from??" - she said "you didn't stay with me, you got the train home". She then launched into "I just don't want to waste my time". Fucking mind blown. She then admits to overthinking the whole thing and sent me a grovelling apology the following morning that she was stupid. I ignore the somewhat amber flag and we schedule a dinner date at my house tonight. However, two nights ago, when I was fucking around with my Apple TV trying to get my HDCP 2.2 to 1.4 converter box working, I was taking longer to reply to her messages (maybe 10 to 15 minutes between texts) when she suddenly calls me out for "being distracted". I explain that I'm a geek, and that I was trying to get my Apple TV working (I even sent a photo of the different HDMI cables I was trying), she then apologises again for being clingy. So here we are, three dates in, and I'm getting the third degree about WHY ARE YOU NOT TEXTING BACK IMMEDIATELY. I'm not sure how things will go tonight, but it's not looking like this one is going to last either.
Fucking Europe, and their damn European Banks. Keeping Britain afloat.the ECB is covering most of the U.K. current account deficit, a bizarre situation that is greatly under-estimated by the market. ECB data show that eurozone net purchases of U.K. “debt securities” were running at an annual rate of 68.7 billion pounds in the second quarter.
