The Frustrations
04/30/24 my last serious relationship ended in February 2022. since then, I have spent time on and off the various dating apps, depending on how my mental health is being affected by them. I have gone out with EIGHTEEN (18) guys since I ended things with my last boyfriend. some of these have only been…

The Questions (Part One of ???)
09/21/23 I bought a set of questions recently, in the hopes that working through them will help me learn to love myself more and/or know myself better. I figured I might as well work through these questions on this blog. “What have you grown to love about yourself?” my smile. I had super uneven teeth…

The Apps
09/20/23 I have varied and oscillating thoughts when it comes to dating. the first line of thinking is that dating/being on dating apps is so fun and silly. I am of the opinion that unless and until someone sits me down and says “will you be my girlfriend,” and I say YES, dating is just…

The Return
09/13/23 it’s been a long time coming … it has been such a long time since I’ve written in this blog, but I’ve had some loyal followers reach out to me and ask when I was going to be posting again (additionally, I now recognize that writing a post entitled “The Grief” and then not…

The Grief
04/11/23 grief is a lot like the ocean. the pounding rain and massive tidal waves threaten to capsize you and pull you straight to the bottom, and it’s all you can do to put your head down and shoulder through it, all you can do to simply stay afloat. and as you shoulder through this…

I’ve never really been…

The Ugly/Real/Hard Truth
02/16/23 yesterday I went to therapy and after listening to me talk for awhile, my therapist said to me: “I think you’re depressed.” which, I’m sure even casual readers of this blog are like “no shit, Sherlock,” and I think I already knew that myself. but sometimes I think there’s a tendency to WebMD ourselves…

The Valentine
02/14/23 happy Valentine’s Day! I really enjoy this holiday, even when I myself don’t have a valentine. I think it’s nice and beautiful seeing people celebrate their love and significant others. I don’t consider myself to be a very envious person, mostly because I understand that just because someone has something I want, that doesn’t…

The Zoo
02/13/23 my mom was married to my dad five months before she turned 25. she met him when she was a senior in college and the rest is history – they are still happily married, and they are such a strong example of love to me and my brother. however, I am now 26 and…

The Broken Record
02/08/23 I had a friend comment that I haven’t posted on my blog in awhile, and I did not have a good reason for my lack of posting, so I figured I would sit down and write something. honestly, I just feel like I have nothing to say. as the title of this post might…
