I have been there and done it. I have got the t-shirt, the album, the apron, you name it. I have survived the most perilous journey that any man can undertake. A journey that is full of danger , dis-appointments and opponents. What am I talking about?. The London dating scene of course. Those that have been there with me will know what I am talking about. The social circle that more or less is a merry go round with more bed hoping taking place, then in a tarts boudoir.

Both men and women play the game, unfortunately though there are some players that either don't know the rules, choose to ignore them, or decide that they can change the rules as and when it suits them. Men give hollow compliments over a candle light dinner, woman act all sweet and innocent as if they are a born again virgin. Come the end of the night though, the games nine times out of ten will end up in the bedroom. The next week they will do it all again, just with a different partner. That is a bullet point, in depth summary of the london dating scene.

Have I put you off yet?. If not then let me tell you about my friend Sean. A smooth operator that will sweep you off your feet in a matter of seconds. He will wine and dine you, tell you how your lips are as luscious as plump ripe strawberries, your eyes are like the most treasured sapphires ever seen with the naked eye. His confidence and joyful nature will overwhelm you, until you end up comparing him to god. The alcohol will beat down your emotional guards until you succumb to his cheeky smile and the way he undresses you with his eyes. The next morning he will kiss you goodbye and promise to call you.Unfortunately the call will never come and you will see him out and about on the London dating scene next week with a different girl.

That is my friend Sean, in a nutshell. Not every player is like him though, some are genuinely on the London dating scene because they wish to find a life partner, someone to treasure every moment with, someone who will share their tears and their joys. If you look hard enough and play the game right then you will find that special person out there. Living proof of this is my wife.
