Dating Mr. Douchetastic
I checked myself in the rear-view mirror one last time before deciding to apply more lipgloss. Normally I didn’t worry so much about bringing my A-game, but I’d been looking forward to this date for days. I’d met him on OKCupid a week earlier. Intrigued by his somewhat mysterious profile and abundance of what appeared …

Lessons In Online Dating: ‘Spin Your Web’ & Don’t Be A Lazy Ass
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I’m the world’s worst dater. Especially when it comes to online dating. Still, I refuse to give up.

Why Age Difference Shouldn’t Matter And I’m Kind Of A Moron
Yesterday I wrote about my recent trip to Cougar Town. I made jokes about mine and my date’s age difference online, offline to my friends and family, and even to my actual date because jokes are often my way of hiding my insecurity – which makes me kind of a moron. That’s some self-depricating bullshit …

Cougar Town > Funky Town
Somehow we ended up holding hands for longer than I expected while we drank our beers and gazed at one another from across the table. Half of me wanted to take my hand back, and the other half wanted to close my eyes, enjoy the affection and never let go. What happened in reality was …

Dating: They Can’t All Be Winners
For most of my life I’ve clung to the romantic belief of each of us having a soulmate – otherwise known as the one. I say clung because at times that belief was literally my life raft, keeping me from drowning during bouts of depression anytime I had my heartbroken. “Just keep swimming, ” I’d …

Making The First Move
I’ve joked a lot about my online dating woes here, but I know deep down that online dating can work. After all, one of my blogger idols Ms. Single Mama met her amazing husband on OKCupid after several failed attempts at dating the old fashioned way. And one of my closest friends in real life …
