Why am I always seeking other’s opinions to validate my self-worth? Why do I allow break-ups to damage my self-confidence? Why do I always assume there is something wrong with me that the other person doesn’t want to be with? These are questions that I have asked myself time and time again, and have now learned to ignore and put to the back of my mind.
The Dating Game (Part II)
Suddenly I have found myself turning into that person who can’t remember past conversations or specific details about another person; the person who used to annoy me by their “lack of interest”. Between dates, conversations, two different apps and mindless swiping, I can’t keep them all straight! My friends have even become confused, and one … Continue reading The Dating Game (Part II)
The Male Perspective
Have you ever wondered what happened with someone you were dating? Did it seem like the relationship was going well and then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, the guy ended things? Have you thought about how you should or shouldn't act on a first date and what your realistic expectations should be? These … Continue reading The Male Perspective
Goodbye 2016!
2016 was a very strange, wicked year; so strange and wicked in fact that someone actually made 2016 into a short horror film (if you haven’t watched it, here it is: https://youtu.be/Z04M6NhkIKk). Let’s recap the year: Celebrities We Lost: -David Bowie (Musical icon, fashion trendsetter, and actor) -René Angélil (Celine Dion’s husband) -Alan … Continue reading Goodbye 2016!
Excuses, Excuses
We’ve all done it: Made up some excuse as to why we cannot go on a date. Maybe you were “sick”, lost your phone or it died, had an emergency, or just forgot. But, why do we do this? What is so daunting about telling the truth? The Little White Lie I recently reached … Continue reading Excuses, Excuses
The Dating Game (Part I)
I have decided to do something that I have never been able to do before: Date. I am loyal to a fault, and because of this I have never been able to date more than one person at a time. Obviously this hasn’t been working for me, so why not play the field? It's not … Continue reading The Dating Game (Part I)
Swipe Right or Left?
Match.com, eHarmony, Plenty of Fish, Tinder, and Bumble: different names, same profiles and stereotypes. While Match and eHarmony allow you to create an in-depth profile to express your interests and desires, the fast-paced, superficial apps like Tinder and Bumble are taking over.
Embracing Your Single-Self
“Single” shouldn’t be a scary, “four letter” word. This should be a period in your life when you get the gift of time to yourself; the time to find out who you are, learn to love yourself, and embrace your freedom. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time being single. How much time do you have … Continue reading Embracing Your Single-Self
A Change of Perception
The world is a very different place in your 20’s than in your 30’s. Expectations, desires, and attractions change forms and mean something completely different and, in my opinion, something better. In Your 20’s: This is the era where dating is mainly for sport, unless you’re one of the rare few who are ready to … Continue reading A Change of Perception
30 Something and Single
I have always tried to live my life with no regrets. Like all of you, I have made some great choices in life and some terrible choices in life. But I would never trade any experience that I have had because all of those ups and downs have made me who I am today... (click title to view more)
