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 [...]
SKIP THE TEXT AND PICK UP THE PHONE FFS…
When I was a young tot, I learned to read and write at a very early age. And with that special power, I discovered the art of argument and negotiation. To this day my mom claims she still has notes I used to slip under her door detailing my case of why the punishment I [...]
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 [...]
RANT: WHY PATIENCE IS A FUCKING JOKE
Alright - I woke up today in a bitching mood -- and not in a good way. So in order for me to settle into the day, I'm going to need to get a few things off my chest. I work my ass off. Anyone who knows me knows that I give 110% in anything [...]
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 [...]
NO ONE WANTS TO SEE YOUR BIG GIRL PANTIES
Woke up with a little less of a heartache, and a little more perspective. It's funny how "love", "infatuation", "twitterpation", etc makes us literally stupid. As in we actually believe that the person(s) who hurt us have the capability of making us feel unwanted/unloved/heartbroken/etc. No. Trust me. The person(s) who hurt us do not have [...]
