I want a 2016 re-start. I have to say, since January, aside from maybe 3 or 4 great moments, there has literally been fuck-all going on in my life that I'm either (a) excited about or (b) hopeful for. I know, I know...look at all the good stuff I have, blah, blah, blah...I do. And [...]

ONCE UPON A TIME…NOPE.
Yep, I think I discovered the world's BIGGEST douchebag a week or so ago. And it was SO bad, that I just have to laugh. I didn't write about it as soon as it happened because, if you've been reading my blogs, you know I've been going through some emotional BS so I needed to [...]
LIFE LESSONS –CLE SERIES
So as I mentioned in my last post, I'm officially off dating apps. All of them. That last go-round was the literal straw that broke the camel's back (well....if I had a camel, I'm sure it would be...I just wanted to throw the word 'literal' in there). I do want to take a quick sec [...]
SEVERELY DOUBTING HUMANITY
So a couple of weeks ago I had 'virtually' met this guy, Josh (I know I said I wouldn't use real names, but this douche deserves to be put on blast). He's a teacher at a school in Ft. Bend. (I've had a day to calm down so I'll refrain from saying exactly WHICH school...) [...]
WHY AM I STILL SURPRISED WHEN GROWN MEN THINK WITH THEIR JUNK?
First of all, I need to make a caveat statement: When I write about my 'dating' life, it's really not ALL that is going on...dating is NOT my life. Additionally, I am not sad and lonely. I'm perfectly fine with my own company and I'm not desperate to find a man. I just happen to [...]
SHIT’S ABOUT TO GET REAL
Well. It's my last week of being 36...I know, I know...some of you out there say 36 is still young, etc...HOWEVER, in the realm of all I want to accomplish and do in my life, turning 37 is abso-fucking-lutely scary. I know I blog a lot about dating, and I make fun of some of [...]
AGE DOESN’T MAKE YOU GROWN FOLK
HOW AN "ADULT" HANDLES REJECTION THE WRONG WAY Scene One: Houston, TX Source: Bumble Scenario: Planned meet up for drinks Participants: Me and "Joe" Results: Stage 5 Clinger and more than likely bipolar...Or just a regular ol' douchebag...you be the judge So when I'm on these ridiculous dating sites/apps, I like to vet people for witty banter [...]
DO WE REALLY NEED TO GO BACK TO DATING 101?
Fellas -- and ladies -- online dating is a fucking nightmare. But we're all doing it so let's try to make the process as easy as possible. I didn't ever think I would need to go into a diatribe of the 'do's and don'ts' of online dating but apparently I do! It's not hard to remember [...]
REASONS YOU’RE NOT GETTING ANYWHERE ONLINE
Alright, fellas. Here's another one for you. I'm going to give you the 411 on how to have a successful interaction with a lady online. So you swiped right (or starred, or liked or matched on whatever app/site you use) and the initial 'hello' pleasantries have been initiated...Clearly there was some attraction so I'm gonna [...]
THIS ONE IS FOR THE FELLAS — IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A SELF-MADE, INDEPENDENT WOMAN, DO NOT DO THIS
Ok. I have to say something. I'm sure it's been said ad nauseum but I have to emphasize the point -- Guys, if you are SERIOUS about online dating, let me give you a few pointers. It is NOT cool to have your profile pic as any of the following: bare torso/no head (i don't [...]
