I can usually see both sides, it makes for some weird arguments with myself
All my dating realizations that my friends are tired of hearing and big sister advice that someone needs to hear
This is for all the people who are irritated by the cliches that people in relationships think are advice. All the: "you'll find them when you least expect it", "work on yourself", "put yourself out there". I am here to explain the "bad" advice that everyone gives before I get in a relationship. Yes, you… Continue reading Hidden and Protected: Something Feels Different
When my alarm went off this morning, I lay there for a snooze and wondered if you'd be at work today. If you weren't going to be, I could snooze once more then throw on my uniform and grab coffee before running out. If you were, I would need to get up... I would need… Continue reading A Crush by Any Other Name
One of the best things about being a girl has to be the way we share about the guys we like. I always love telling and hearing about the cute moments. I told my friends I was talking to this guy, he was picking on me about the way I say "taco" and I would… Continue reading Breaking a Toxic Cycle
Something you should know about me, is that I have a tendency to take things at face value, I will take you at your word and move on (guess that makes me a little gullible). That is until something sparks in me that starts a deep dive into a single word and what it means… Continue reading Uniquely Feminine Perspective
I am a month away from being 25 and I have never been in a real relationship. Sure, I've flirted and been on a few dates here and there. I've gotten close to guys, seen their vulnerabilities and shared my own. I have showed my big personality and waited for the initial novelty to wear… Continue reading im-Patiently Waiting
Many, maybe even most, of us have heard Tim Macgraw’s 2004 hit “Live Like You Were Dying”. But if by some chance you haven't heard this song, its the story of a man learning he has a terminal illness and instead of moping about, he went skydiving, climbed the Rocky Mountains, and rode a bull… Continue reading Live like you were dying
I once dated a guy that the only thing we had in common to talk about was Game of Thrones. We met on Tinder during the last season of the show and somehow we actually went on several dates. Somehow I met his friends. Somehow it was still nice to be around him but man we… Continue reading What’s your favorite movie?
In 2005, there was a bag at Target that all of us had to have. It was a rubbery bag (that matched our jelly shoes) in pink or blue with an initial on it. Most of the girls got their last name initial on it, but me... in 5th grade... decided I needed my first initial because… Continue reading Not What I had in mind
It's a strange phenomenon mourning the life you knew, when you weren't even in a good place. In How I Met Your Mother, they called it "graduation goggles". But it's not that I am looking back fondly on a situation that was hard. Trust me! I remember every single thing I complained about, and so… Continue reading Mourning the Life I didn’t even enjoy
I have always been someone who didn’t mind spoilers. Especially those that were about the end. It may be why I flourish in learning history, I know the ending but It doesn’t mean I don’t want to know how we got there. I like having a good plot twist and surprise but I’m actually more… Continue reading I Have Read the End
I have been annoying my family and friends with my drama about a guy that I had once liked and now wanted to be a friend. I am no longer upset, but it isn't yet talked out of my system so buckle up. He was a crush that I found to be a sweet friend.… Continue reading Mixed Signals
What is it with former significant others timing? They leave your life, wait for you to get settled in your life without them again and then, and only then, they contact you. Think about it, if that text came in 2 days after the break-up you may have gotten back together. I mean, there is… Continue reading Shhhhh, I’m Trying to Forget You.
Honestly I don't know why I am writing this. I am not delusional enough to think that my perfect guy is going to read this and somehow find a way to me through this (like so many of the romcoms I love). I guess it is just for my thought process and to know what… Continue reading The 5 things I’m looking for in a partner
So, as you may or may not have read (and if you haven't you can read it here) I deleted tinder about a week ago. And really, I don't miss it. For the most part... What I didn't really expect was the feeling of needing to detox from it. I guess I could have weened… Continue reading Tinder Detox
In the near 1 year that I had Tinder I matched with 374 guys, messaged about 50, gave my snapchat to 4, my phone number to 2, and met 1. I downloaded the app last August on a whim and deleted it the same way. And if you're like tinder, you want to know why.… Continue reading Deleting Tinder
