It’s funny how time can change your views on things: relationships, careers, blogging, you name it. Time has a way of romanticizing and idealizing the good bits, while the bad ones either fade into the recesses of an overcrowded brain or fester and multiply until their impact far outweighs the actual memory.
Where do you […]

Modern technology can make our lives much easier, and our mistakes impossible to erase. The following exchange happened after being out with a group of friends at a bar and flirting with a cute Australian guy all evening before leaving to go to work at the club.
Text to my girlfriend (or so I thought…):
“He […]

I should have known something was suspicious from the guy’s opening line:
Looks directly at me, “I have to apologize…”
“Why?” I ask as girlfriend and I exchange glances.
“Because I really like the way she looks,” he replies turning to said girlfriend.
Okay, way to start on an arrogant note. Read The Game much, buddy? Making […]

I sat in the hall, decorated simply with gorgeous flowers and filled simply with the people that mattered, and discovered that I was jealous.
I didn’t begrudge the bride a moment of her happiness- in fact, I flew across the country to be a witness to it. It was just a sucker punch to the […]

Myself and many people I know call ourselves hopeless romantics, touting a belief in love at first site, true love, or at the very least a faithful partner. But there’s a big difference between wanting it and actually believing in it.
I was struck by my cynicism tonight as a girlfriend told the story of […]

There are certain people who make more of an impression on your mind than they ever do in your life.
It can almost be harder to get over a crush than an actual relationship. They never had the chance to disappoint you so you can cling to that perfect vision you had of him asking […]

I’ve heard a number of idiotic excuses from guys in the past as to why they didn’t want to get involved:
- “You’re too mature.”
- “You’re moving and I don’t want to get too attached.”
- “I’m afraid to tell my best friend, because he’s always really liked you too.”
- “You’re a bad kisser.”
And while I […]

Let me just start by saying that it wasn’t forthcoming. The first communication I got the day after being asked along on someone else’s date was as noncommittal and oblivious as the previous evening’s actions.
“Great to see you last night… ☺”
I almost had to laugh- what part of that experience had been anything remotely resembling […]

The luck of the leprechauns was not with me yesterday. In fact, I’m wondering if ancestors of mine were actually gold thieves and I’m living out a curse based on their bad behavior.
The worst nights always start so well, letting you slip out of that heavy coat of defense into something more comfortable until […]

Don’t get my hopes up. Don’t even let me get to know you because everything I learn just makes you more appealing.
Don’t agree with me - politically, morally, musically - and then treat us as if we have nothing in common. Don’t rattle off your story because it sounds a bit too much like […]
