Tinder Stories
This story is in no way, shape or form to ridicule anyone. It’s just my point of view. After the long journey of dating people that I’ve met in real life, I decided to finally give Tinder a huge chance in 2017. Once I signed up, I was open to various people. Also, I was traveling a lot during that time. My location was set in my hometown of Los Angeles, CA, to be exact. I swiped left so many times it was ridiculous, so I deleted the app a week after, then reinstalled it in hopes of finding something that intrigued me.

The I Love You Conundrum
By July of 1995, just two months after meeting Shawna, she had firmly imprinted on me. We were still side by side with each other, eating most of our meals together, hanging out off campus and undeniably best friends at this point. We had never dated each other and crossed that bridge. I briefly dated Lisa again, right at the time Shawna had stopped dating Tim #1. Whenever there was a brief window where we both seemed to be available, it closed quickly. Soon, Shawna was dating Tim #2 who happens to be my favorite of all of her boyfriends. The three of us got along great.

Active Learning ❤️
We all yearn for our soulmate or significant other. Similar to everyone else, I’ve been on the same journey with successes and failures; hopefully by the end of this article you will find a gem that will help you succeed in your relationships. Life alone is complicated, trying to learn how to control your emotions or your likes and dislikes, let alone trying to add another person into your life. Most people experience their first serious relationship early in life, around the age of 18, and hope that that will be the person that will be there forever. Naive of us all, I thought the same thing don’t feel bad. At 18 I was joining the ARMY and thought that I was with who I would go on to spend the rest of my life with while traveling the world, but little did I know I was about to go on this journey alone. We were young but I was in a place she wasn’t. I was focused on the future and the future included her. So to find out she had an interest in other men was devastating. I had shared my fears, my dreams and ambition with her, for her to throw me away for someone else was something I couldn’t understand. In the words of Drake “Certain shit is just too wild to reconcile.” Yet I tried to forgive her, but the feelings weren’t the same.

A Split-Second Decision
This one takes place a little while after I had returned from seeing Jaime. As I knew would happen, Jaime and I were intimate on the weekend I went to see her. Having rethought the whole idea about whether we should see other people, I had decided that we should be exclusive. It was not right for me to be physically involved with more than one woman at a time. It hurt everybody involved. When I got back to Job Corps, I explained to Shawna how Jaime and I were now exclusive. I felt really good about my prior decision to hold off starting anything with Shawna. Did Chester tell Shawna about our conversation? I will never know. Shawna and I never discussed it. Since I had never kissed Shawna or even told her of any interest in her, then as far as I knew, I was exonerated of any wrong doing.
