Confessions of a 30-Something Guy Who Looks 20-Something at Most
Less than a week from now is my 35th birthday (though most people don’t see it at first if they either didn’t know beforehand or aren’t told until after our first meeting), and the closest I’ve had to a relationship is a brief, hypothetical long distance QPP.

If Life Was That Simple
We spend our lives searching for things that are not always there. Sometimes the things that we search for, are not always what we need. What I'm trying to say is, I've spent half of my teenage life searching for things that I was wasting time on. Things that I didn't need in my life at the time. Lusting for those things was draining me, not just emotionally but mentally. Looking out at the beautiful scenery that glows into my view, wondering if love or anything else will come my way and have a positive impact on my life. After many disappointments coming at me in so many forms, I've just about had it. When you've had delays and negativity always around you, you get used to it. It gets to you. It gets to the point where you can't ignore those disappointments anymore. And then when they start to pile up in your head, you become so tired that you don't even have the energy for anything.

Lonely Girl
A black and white photo of my mother at 6 or 7 sits on my dresser. She is looking off into the distance, hugging her skirt around her thin legs, alone on the back porch of her childhood homes. Her expression suggests that she is unaware of the photographer; she looks small and vulnerable and, most of all, lonely. She seems so unlike the mother I know that it’s hard for me to believe they are the same person. But her name and the year (1948), written in my grandmother’s slanted handwriting, proves otherwise. That picture haunts me, and makes me wonder who my mom really is. Is that lonely, vulnerable child still there, and if she is, why can’t I reach her? Why is my relationship with her fraught with unsaid words?

Why I didn’t want to be a mom
Positive, said the results. My heart started to beat fast as soon as I read those words. I was stupid to have some hope it was wrong because I did a urine and blood sample. I did not want to have this baby, but now here I am, with my beautiful two month old daughter. But before my daughter, why didn’t I want to become a mom?

Toothpaste
A moment to yourself. Nothing to think about but your daily routine. Brush teeth, shower, and things seem to be normal as they should. At a moment's strike, you find it in the mirror. Tears roll down your face. You find it hard to breathe as you brush your teeth. you continue to brush until the tears become overwhelming. The saliva forces you to swallow some toothpaste and you can't help but weep. You begin choking on the toothpaste and you stop so you’re not found on the floor.

I “Quiet-Quit” Saying Stupid Shit
Everywhere I look lately, I see the words “Quiet-quit”. Especially on Medium articles, as of late. I had to look up the meaning and once I saw it, ugh. Sometimes, certain phrases just make you want to puke. Gag me with a thesaurus.

Whither Toronto?
Why do I hate that city so much? I know that I am not alone with this. Many of my fellow Canadians have very strong opinions about T.O., Hogtown, the Economic Heart of Canada…and That Place. But there is no hate like the hate that grows and festers like the one from someone who lives in close proximity to that town.

Does it matter who files for divorce first in New Jersey?
Yes, it matters. Whether you file for divorce first or your spouse does, it will likely depend on the specific circumstances of your case. If you are filing for divorce because your spouse cheated, then normally, you would want to be the one who files for divorce first, so that there aren’t any accusations of collusion between spouses.
