dating

All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.

Girl Talk (Pt. 2)
As I am sipping my first glass of wine of the day, I thought to myself, why not write about my first time. In my last Girl Talk, I talked about how I use online dating, well that wasn't my first time doing so, to be honest, all of the men I've dated I've met through a dating site. I'm here though to talk about my time of firsts, my first time on a dating site, my first time going on a date, my first time having sex, and yes this all happened with the first guy I met through the online dating app, OKCupid.

Why Didn’t He Call?
Why Didn’t He Call? We have all endured the pain that comes with not getting a call from a crush or a one night stand. You try to come up with ten thousand reasons for what could have went wrong. In reality, it had nothing to do with you at all. You were the best self that you could be and that still didn’t matter. Once the person resurfaces, they try to explain why they caused you such dismay; And yet it still leaves you feeling empty, insecure, betrayed, just to name a few.

Why I’m Still Single (Pt. 1)
This is going to be a long journey, so grab your favourite drink and enjoy! I get told a lot from strangers if I’m taken or am I in a relationship and when I say no, they go stunned and surprised and ask why and even guys have the same expression too. I always feel like it’s me that’s the issue, I always feel that I’m not attracted enough or I’m not skinny and good looking and it’s been haunting me since it all began when I was in my early 20s.

Anyone Can Be a Good Person but Not Everyone Is the Right Person
You always hear people say “I want a good man” or “I want a good woman in my life” Then the universe gives them what they ask for only so they can go ahead and ruin a good thing. Which is exactly what they wanted, a good thing. Sometimes they blame themselves, other times they blame the person. After the breakup, they tend to start the cycle all over again. The issue here is that people tend to fall for someone based on infatuation, fear of loneliness, that model look, the lavish lifestyle, etc. Sometimes those things can blind you from seeing a person for who they truly are. Other times we meet a good person and that’s all they are to us, a good person. However, being a good person these days is usually not good enough to keep a relationship from crumbling and fall into pieces. With that in mind, here are some tips on how to know if someone is right for you regardless of how good of a person they may be.

I Like You. Maybe a Little Too Much, but You Can't Blame Me!
Scrolling through her newsfeed on Facebook... *ping* a random text from a guy she must have sent a friend request to a long time ago, she doesn't remember.

To Cheat or Not to Cheat? (Pt. 1)
Look, I really love my girlfriend. That's one thing I know for sure. And I'm new to this "creator" thing, so it's gonna be more like a diary for me. So sit back and read the most messed up story about me so far.

Trivializing Tinder
The movies paint a picture-perfect image of how we meet the perfect person and fall in love and somehow end up living happily-ever-after. Yet this story-tell ideal of romance is very much detached from the reality of dating. Of course, there are some cases where two people meet and it sticks and they end up being one of those “forever couples” who stay together no matter what, but then there is the rest of us. We are the vast majority who find ourselves wondering how we will ever meet “the one.”

How Many Times Must I Be Ghosted to Find 'the One?'
I want to start by saying, I don’t hate men. There are good men out there. I'm just beginning to believe I simply have poor taste in men, which results in my continuous cycle of meeting someone, getting attached, then getting hurt, and watching them leave. I have yet to break that cycle. For four years, almost five now, I have felt nothing but disappointment. I may have felt happiness at some points, but, it never lasted long.

My Worst Date Ever (and Coming Out)
So this happened a while back, but it's still my best story to tell in case I need to explain how bad dating has been for me. So I suppose I'll tell it, again, and see what you think.

Abused
He will not be called by his real name, nor will I, or anyone in this article. We’ll call "him" Andy. Andy and I met three years ago January 14th 2016. We were both in highschool and I was living with my sister, her husband, and her two toddlers. We met spontaneously and were both infatuated with each other. Soon after, we started dating and not long after that broke up.
