How to Overcome Insecurities When Dating as a Guy
Take it from me, when dating as a guy, it can be a complete crapshoot. As somebody who has dabbled in spur of the moment conversation and the online dating scene (with varying success for both), it is easy to develop insecurities. You will rack your brain over why things don't work, what your limits should be and even when things seem to fall into place.

Need Vs Love
There are a few things in my life that are relentless. They just never seem to stop. I think I have a handle on it. I let my guard down. Then, WHOOSH, it is back out of control again. Things like laundry, and people wanting to be fed. For the love of GOD, learn to feed yourselves! I don’t know who put me in charge, or why, but it NEVER stops.

The Millennial's Guide to Relationships: What NOT To Do
“I don’t even know who that is!,” “She’s just a friend from high school…” “You can trust me…” these are just a few of the lines I, as well as my friends, have heard over the past few years from our own former significant others. Millennials seem to be having the hardest time grabbing onto a relationship that they’re willing to keep. It has become a paradox; everyone talks about how they want a faithful lover yet they aren’t committed when getting into a serious relationship. Here’s a news flash kiddos, you have to want to be faithful to be in a committed relationship! Contrary to popular belief, “talking” in today’s society is considered “dating” and it’s one of the biggest problems with the way young adults believe they should begin their journey of love. My main goal for you all is to possibly show you what the problems are and what NOT to do the next time you want to get into a serious relationship.

When You Realize That You Are the 'And Then' Guy in a Relationship
During the thirty-seven years on this planet that I’ve been alive, I’ve only been in about four major relationships. Last night, at work, I was using a ride-on scrubber and cleaning the store that I am employed at. I started reflecting on them. Low and behold, I came upon the realization that I am a "And Then" person: i.e., the transitional person that makes a woman realize that she wants someone better and finds them.

#Single: Acceptance and Celebration
These ideas have been circling around in my mind for the past few weeks. I’ve been trying to avoid writing about relationships and romance, but the universe seems to be dropping hints compelling me to discuss this subject. As those close to me are likely aware, this is a topic that I hold very close to my heart; that is, accepting that I’m single.

Dating: What Does It Mean to You?
I have been divorced for as many years as I was married. I tried dating. The first relationship ended with a phone call saying needs weren't being met. He married someone who met those needs within a year of our breakup. I was told they divorced within a year or two.

Wisteria
Life is too short to not see the beauty in things, too short to allow something deemed as "ugly" to go completely ignored or abandoned. Living by this taught me to appreciate the good in the bad, no matter how hard it can be to do so. I was able to be patient with people, to try to know them before judging them too harshly. I had to weed out the bad qualities and find the good ones in order to do this.

Common Mistakes We Make In Relationships
I don't care who you are or what you do, anyone that claims to live a perfect life with their significant other is full of crap. Of course, relationships can be strong and full of love and happy days, but expecting two separate individuals to agree on everything whether it be parenting, finances, sex, etc. is absolutely ludicrous.
