Why Women Go For Jerks, Badboys, and Deadbeat Losers
It all started when I fell for a backhanded-handed compliment. I was at the Candy and Snack aisle when a young man walked up to me and said, “you look like an ancient Nubian queen … is that your hair?” No, I smiled; these are braids, Jamaican twists, to be exact. I’ve always known black women don’t have hair, he said, but you’re pretty, so I’ll give you a pass. What’s your name?

Date Night
There’s no time like quality time. In fact, quality time is my love language (aside from words of affirmation). Date nights are important. Whether you are newly committed, newlyweds, or in seasoned relationships that grow better with time; date nights are necessary to keep the love fresh & the fire hot.

Loving an Asexual
In October of 2018, I swiped right on a girl on Tinder. She caught my eye with her sense of style, her cute face, and her bio that described her interest in video games. A few hours later, at work, I received a notification about a new match. It was that exact girl. She sat within a sea of other matches of men, women, and non-binary people, but I smiled at the notification anyway. I gave it a few hours to see if she would message first.

The Truth About Meeting The Right Person At The Wrong Time
This article was previously published on Medium. About a month ago, I met a guy from a dating app and we had spent a whole day together hiking with his dog, going out to dinner, and ending the night binging Netflix. He was easy to get along with and we never got bored of each other. We continued seeing each other until he sent me a message that he got a job offer in Philadelphia (currently I reside in Massachusetts) and he was going to be moving there for good.

My Senior Online Dating Saga
Should I or shouldn’t I? Was this the time to give online dating a shot? In my overactive imagination, I was hoping to find someone who still rode a motorcycle and could transport me back to the joy of my carefree youthful days of riding with the wind in my face and my body in tandem with every curve and turn of the bike. When the reality of my unbalanced arthritic body woke me up and slapped me in the head, I adjusted my expectation to looking for someone who still drove a car at night. As a widow who was blessed to have experienced a long, loving marriage with the best the male species had to offer, I was not looking for a serious long-term relationship. I was looking for companionship and fun. Someone with whom to enjoy a concert, a play, dinner, great conversation, and hearty laughter.
