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 […]

The dreading is almost always worse than the doing. I was so not looking forward to having a conversation with Connect Zero that I found myself in serious procrastination mode. When Saturday rolled around and I didn’t have a good excuse of something else to do, I sent a text saying exactly what I […]

I decided to give Connect Zero a second chance, not because I thought he would win me over but because I have an empathetic streak that tends to stroll hand in hand with its pall the guilt complex. For all the times I’ve wished for a do-over with a guy I really like the […]

I’ve always been a competitive girl. Since joining Facebook I am kicking ass and talking virtual shit all over Srabulous. This is part of what makes me an avid sports fan, a passionate debater, and ultimately a New Yorker.
But sometimes I worry that I’m behind in the relationship game. I’ve made it through the […]

Just realized I left some unfinished business on my story of dating a freshman, and since it’s one I use to remind myself of the confidence I’m able to muster when needed, I thought now would be a good time to continue:
After a surprisingly great first date with a younger guy, I was expecting a phone […]

I’ve recently become a full-blown Facebook user. I had a profile before, but had never uploaded a picture, filled out any information, and joined purely because a friend invited me to see some photos.
My inspiration for the change of heart? I was invited to Buddy’s birthday party- where I met the adorable Non-threatening Bouncer- through Facebook […]

I walked into the bar on the minute the invite had specified. The cute guy with the casually relaxed stance was one of the least intimidating bouncers I had ever seen, but also struck me as one of the most unconventionally attractive men I had seen in a long time.
I rummaged through gloves, iPod, […]

My best friend once said to me in college that she worried I wasn’t as confident as I was in high school. I blame this on my habit of outgrowing ponds. At a small public high school in my hometown, I was confident because I wasn’t challenged. I could join every club, ace every […]

One of the other tough dichotomies I’ve come across in dating advice is “Pursue what you want the way you would anything else in your life” vs. “It’ll happen when you least expect it so just stop looking.”
With most things I want in life I look for examples of other people who have […]

One of the toughest parts about dating is how many generally accepted rules there are that are completely contradictory. Bright Lights, Date City started an interesting discussion recently on being THAT girl.
People are constantly saying that you need to find someone who loves you for you, flaws and all, but Bachelor Travis Stork just wrote […]
