dating
All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
Love: Why is it so hard?
I have dated since the age of 19. I can say it has not gotten any easier. Does dating/ marriage/ relationships have to be so hard? I am starting to believe the older you get the less likely you mate is out there. I do have hope, but I am starting to feel I just need to marry myself since I am the only one who can deal with me lol. Let me set the scene, you meet someone, whether in person or online with one of their dating app. I will get to how I feel about those in a minute. Anyway, you meet someone, and you go out on a date. Everything is going great until you tell them about what you would want in a relationship. Not saying you want a relationship with the person, but you just tell them person your standards. I feel some men claim they want a woman with standards and have it all together, but truly they may not know how to deal with all that you put out there. They look at you sideways or they “act” like they agree. However, their actions do not show they understand nor agree with your standards. Are we not supposed to have standards? Are we supposed to tell people how to treat us or how with would like to be treated? I put everything on the table and it always backs fires. Every time. Maybe not the first time I speak to someone but eventually I would tell them where I stand on things.

What I learned from being in a relationship
Each relationship is different from the others because the background is different, the person you are with and a thousand other things. Despite this, from my first relationship, I learned many things. These are some of the most important that I managed to put down.

Maybe I am the problem.
Have you ever thought to yourself "well look none of my exes are in happy relationships so i clearly wasn't the problem"? i have and truthfully i think we all do, unless it has been an abusive relationship of any sort i think we all play apart in why your relationship didn’t work.

The Trials and Tribulations of Tinder
When my best friends Sofia first told me she was using Tinder I was a little taken aback . For context, if I were to imagine Sofia telling me the story of how she met the love of her life it would probably go something like this: She’s sat in the window seat of a gorgeous old library, sunlight streaming in creating a perfect little halo around her head buried deep in a book. A boy approaches and asks what she’s reading, she flips to show him the front cover and it is, of course, his favourite book. Tinder has no place in this world of romantic fantasy. Fantasy, unfortunately, being the key word there. Is it really so obscene to want to be swept off your feet instead of swiped right on or is spontaneous romance really something condemned to exist only in the whimsical figments of our imagination?

SIX (6) ONLINE DATING GOLDEN RULES YOU MUST KNOW
Online dating has exploded in popularity over the past few years. As our lives get busier and more hectic, and the internet has become more accessible, it has become easier and easier to meet new people online as opposed to via more “traditional” methods. Online dating lets you identify people who share your interests, and fit the profile of the kind of person you are looking for, before you even make first contact.

The Nice Guy
The Nice Guy You know how it is, you finally meet the ‘nice’ one. The one that tells you they miss you; they are glad they met you and they can’t wait to see you again, only a few days later they are posting your underwear through your mum’s letterbox.
