dating
All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
LUST IN THE TIME OF COVID
I think we have subconsciously been waiting on this for years. Think on it. With the introduction of social media and smart phones we have become our own creatures of habit. We are transcending homo sapien. The introduction of the novel coronavirus, Covid -19 has just given us the push we needed to finally exile ourselves to the delicacies of the limitless dimensions of the internet and the technologies that surround it.

What I learned about Relationship
In my past relationships, I did have great communication because I was afraid if I said anything it would make things worse. So I just agreed with what the other said and took what the other said. It broke my heart, but at least I had someone like everyone else right? Wrong. I didn’t really have anyone, why was I kidding myself? I didn’t have anyone that really cared what I think, I was just a toy to them, yes a toy. It made me feel horrible about myself, made me depressed, I cried probably everyday asking why don’t they want me? There was times I would just drink by myself, to sort of numb the pain, but all that got me was very dizzy and nauseated. So that didn’t work, I never got into the drugs because man I probably would be rolling in a lot of puke. Honestly, I know that is a problem for some but I don’t get it. Maybe something was telling me yeah Whitney you don’t need that. So I cried and figured that was a good plan. No all I could really do was try and try. Didn’t get me anywhere but more sadness. Until I met my husband, now he had problems with his last relationship. There was never no communication with her either. So that first two weeks of us texting each other before we met. We laid everything on the table, and even the night we had our first date. Man I didn’t think we had that much to say but we did. But honestly I think there was a reason someone from above sent the past relationships to me, because he brought me this wonderful man. Now our first few months were still a test for us, because he still was having issues with what his ex wife did to him and still was afraid to really let those walls down. But something kept pushing me to break those walls. I mean I had to convince him I wasn’t going to just drop everything and leave. I don’t do that I mean I stayed in my previous relationship for 4 years, even though he didn’t call it a relationship because he was still messing around with other girls. I didn’t even mess with anybody else because I was being faithful for no damn reason. But I knew that his ex wife wasn’t faithful, I knew how that felt having someone cheat on you. I mean it was hard for me because he lived an hour away from me and I didn’t know what he was doing, but something told me Whitney it will be ok. So I tried and tried and tried, for the first time I laid everything down and I actually fought. I fought for myself, I fought for him, and I fought for this relationship. I know what you are asking well didn’t you fight for the other because you were with them for 4 years? No I didn’t, I thought I did but that really wasn’t fighting, that was surrendering. When I mean fighting, I mean sticking up for yourself, fighting for communication from the other, fighting for their respect and love, fight for them. It also works the other way, when the other fights for the same things too. It brings that safety feeling, loving feeling, and attraction feeling to back to you, and makes you feel worthy.

Long Distance relationships
It is true in this world of how long distance relationships work. Some think they can love someone despite the distance and keep each other happy in a relationship. But people just don't care about the long distance. This actually helps couples in a relationship to become stronger at both their ends of the world .It is said that you become a master in communication with your partner in a long distance relationship.

Serenity
A place I hold in my heart is only a place that I have visited only three times. I didn’t go there often, mainly only when I was with other people, but this specific time and place made everything feel surreal, yet it was the perfect moment. There are a lot of places where I have felt powerful in the world, but I can never stop thinking about this specific place. The place that I will never forget is the West Bluff View in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
